We provide camping at two locations around the farmhouse hub facilities; a Certified Location Caravan & Camping Club site with hard standing for five units accessed through the Yorkshire Dales National Park Car Park, meadowland tent pitches for tents and trailers by the river and Dales Way footpath behind the farmhouse, and two comfortable camping pods.

The National Trust bought Heber Farm in 1994 to help preserve it as the last working farm in the village.

Tenanted by us since then, the farm keeps us busy with 600 sheep, plus cattle including a developing herd of Belted Galloways. As hill farming becomes less able to survive commercially in today’s economy the new herd provides a more viable breed, naturally equipped to live outdoors without the costs associated with indoor accommodation and feeding.

Garry is on the steering group for the Yorkshire Dales National Park looking at ‘higher nature farming’ practices as a means to long term sustainable farming methods that benefit the environment.

Wonderful find!

Siddall, Bob - 05/01/2023

Gill, your host, is just lovely. We stayed in one of the shepherds huts / camping pods and thoroughly enjoyed the warmth and comfort it provided (in December!). The facilities are absolutely adequate for the size of the site (nice touches like wheelbarrows to move gear from the car), and the location is ideal as a launchpad for the local area. We ate at The Buck across the road and enjoyed engaging service and good food (huge portions). We will be back with friends and kids for a longer stay in 2023.

Beautiful spot with walks from the door and wildlife everywhere!

Smith, Andrew - 10/11/2022

The pod we stayed in was well equipped, clean and comfortable. The facilities are great. Clean showers, clean toilets and easy to access. A really wonderful long weekend, spent walking, entertaining the dog, eating in local pubs and generally relaxing in the quiet. Gill is lovely, really welcoming and great local knowledge of things to do and other businesses in the area. Most of all though, really, it is a stunningly beautiful spot in any weather and a great place to relax.
