Welcome to Thornton Hall Camping!

Our family-run camp site is a top quality choice for families and couples who are searching for a tranquil place to stay in the gorgeous county of North Yorkshire.

Boasting a number of electric and non-electric grass pitches, our site is surrounded by the rolling hills of Yorkshire and Lancashire. Perfect for walking. Why not follow the Pennine Way which runs straight through our Country Park!

Those camping at Thornton Hall will receive a discount on entry to Thornton Hall Farm situated a stone’s throw away from the campsite (subject to availability).

Next to the campsite, we have Thornton Hall Farm – a children’s Farm Park which is open from January to December and has a full calendar of events throughout (additional cost).

We have lots for you to do whilst you are staying with us should you choose not to sit back and relax…

The Pendle Way crosses through the centre of the farm or why not join the Pennine Way leading from the village. We have the Leeds & Liverpool canal within walking distance of the farm – for a longer walk head to the historic town of Skipton or take a shorter stroll to the village of Salterforth. You could even hire a barge to explore all the beauty of the canal – available at Skipton.

Experience hands-on animal encounters on our traditional working farm at Thornton Hall Farm. Climb onboard our Safari Ride* and take a trip up to our Deer Park then enjoy some delicious food in our onsite diner while the little ones burn off the remainder of their energy in our huge fun-filled Play Barn… a fun-filled, informative family day out, RAIN OR SHINE!

'Quadtrex' is based within Thornton Hall Country Park and is an exciting quad biking adventure. Trek over 160 acres of woodland, fields, and quarry land and explore the heart of Yorkshire/Lancashire countryside. Located a short distance from both Skipton and Colne, QUADTREX has everything you need for an unforgettable day in the great outdoors. Quadtrex must be pre booked. Please call 01282 841148 for more information. www.quadtrex.co.uk

Campsite behaviour and management.

Wishart, Iain - 03/06/2023

I turned up with my 5 year old to the site after a Dino experience day which was good. The campsite was quiet until 2 mums with kids arrived......ok... i'm fine with that....but when one daughter and Mum spend the rest of the night screaming and shouting at each other it makes a mockery of a quiet site rule.....does the manager ever have a walk around to check? NO....I also had to deal with a wandering toddler who thought he was staying in my van.....what sort of Mother allows their toddler to wander unsupervised.......FFS!I have just come back from 2 wonderful nights in Anglesey for less money per night....and a much better run campsite.Guess where I will return?

Thankyou for taking the time to leave this review. We are sorry to hear about the issues you had with other visitors on the Site. Our offices are open from 9.30am until 5pm so any issues can be raised directly with us, however upon check in we do also provide all campers with a Site Map which includes a contact number for any issues outside of our office hours. Had this been brought to our attention, we would have been able to resolve this issue for you. If you do lose this information, this can also be found on the sign outside of the toilet blocks. We are sorry to hear that this effected your visit with us, and this be passed onto the Site Team to review - THCP

Wedding stopover

Taylor, Philip - 01/06/2023

Primarily our booking was to attend a wedding at Thornton Hall; and what a fantastic venue for a wedding it is! However, we arrived early and cycled from the site through the beautiful surrounding countryside to Gargrave, Airton, Otterburn, Hellifeld, and Paythorne. The views from the site itself are fantastic, the facilities spotless. Although we didn't encounter any issues, we did wonder if there were sufficient toilet and shower facilities had the site been full.

Brilliant spacious site

Huggon, Heather - 25/05/2023

We stayed here last year, non electric in the big field. This year we were electric and was put in the first pitches, not on the field but I'm guessing that's because it wasn't high season. The pitches are very spacious (our tent is 8m long and we could still park the car infront with plenty of room). The showers are on the small side, it's hard to shower a baby in there but we managed. The tap in the bathroom is warm only so brushing your teeth isn't nice! In all though, we would definitely stay again and recommend to others 😁

Good stay - check for night events when booking

Donnelly, Chloe - 27/04/2023

A great little campsite with probably the cleanest toilet and shower facilities I’ve ever seen. We really enjoyed our stay at the campsite. The only negative would have to be that there was a bingo event on at the secret garden at thornton hall and the music and noise went on till midnight and with staying in a tent this kept us awake. We had young children with us so wasn’t ideal and would have been helpful to know about the event when booking. Apart from this issue it was a great stay.

Great campsite with lovely views and good links to local area However several things could be improved The farm park is lovely and the children loved it however it would make more sense of the cost of the farm park entry was included as campers (soft play extra) £50 extra a day for a family access to park area is steep on top of £100 for weekend non electric pitch Toilet block needs upgrade and more facilities

Neat and tidy, lovely location

Fearnley, Bethan - 10/04/2023

As a group we felt that a ticket to the farm included in the camping would have been nice. The toilet block was really clean but even with only a few pitches, not enough facilities really. The whole site was wonderfully presented and it was a really nice place to be, the staff we met were polite and friendly.
