Set in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, the park stands on the 45-acre estate of Knight Stainforth Hall, just 2 miles north of the market town of Settle and nestled on the banks of the River Ribble, a manor house dating back to pre-Norman times, which belonged to the Knight Templar.

The Touring Park is open from 1st Mar – 31st Oct and offers 100 touring pitches for Caravans, Motorhomes and Tents. 75 of these are serviced with electrical hook-up points.

The children’s playground and ball games area always go down well with the little ones. Shop with off-license selling basic supplies, camping accessories and gas refills. Games and TV room and an Information room containing brochures and literature on attractions and events in the locality. Some information is available on places of interest further afield, but within easy access of the Park. Fishing is available on site.

Very well kept site in a fantastic location

We had an amazing stay at Knight Stainforth Hall Caravan & Camping Park and are already looking to rebook. The setting is stunning, the site is beautifully maintained, and everywhere was spotlessly clean with plenty of toilets, showers and washing-up facilities.The shop stocks all the essentials, and the pub was excellent. We were a group of 21, and the staff were incredibly accommodating. The food was delicious, and the kids loved the golf simulator.The highlight was the river at the bottom of the site, with crystal-clear plunge pools and jumps of all heights. We spent two full days swimming, jumping, BBQing and relaxing without needing to use the car. We also enjoyed the lovely riverside walk into Settle for lunch and drinks.A fantastic campsite with excellent facilities, friendly staff and great value. Highly recommended!

35 years of visiting

Knight Stainforth has been my favourite campsite for 35 years, my parents brought me camping here most summers and I have brought my family numerous times too. Staff are super friendly and approachable, whether in the reception building or restaurant or on site. Nothing is too much trouble and they are very accommodating of my family's access needs. The facilities are well appointed and clean, although the flooring in the accessible bathroom is a little worn and tired. Knight Stainforth is a great launching spot for lots of local attractions like Ingleton waterfall walk, Clapham show cave, Malham Cove and Devil's Bridge. The site is great value for money and we will definitely be returning.
