Details checked 6 August 2026 Β· source: Google Places Penhill Park near Leyburn takes tents, caravans, motorhomes and glamping on a working farm with Wensleydale views and hiking access. ## About Penhill Park Well, this is quite some setting. Penhill Park occupies a neatly mown field with superb views over the hills and vales of Wensleydale, in the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Set on the edge of a 100-acre working farm at the foot of Penhill itself, the site offers easy access to the peak's hiking trails and sits adjacent to Middleham Moor, where racehorses from local yards exercise on the gallops each morning. Two pubs lie about 20 minutes' walk away, while Wensley Waterfall makes a rewarding three-mile trek. The site operates a 'leave nothing behind but footprints' policy, so all waste must go home with you. Facilities include eco-toilets, a shower shack, washing-up area and recycling amenities. Firepits are generally allowed depending on weather conditions, though disposable barbecues and ground campfires are prohibited. Dogs are welcome throughout the year but must stay on leads as livestock graze the surrounding fields. The market town of Leyburn, with its shops and restaurants, is an easy 10-minute drive. ## Photos Photos via Google ## Can I bring...? β›Ί Tent pitches βœ“ Yes 🚐 Caravans welcome βœ“ Yes 🚌 Motorhomes welcome βœ“ Yes ✨ Glamping available βœ“ Yes πŸ›– Lodges & statics βœ“ Yes ## Pitch types - β€’ Non-electric grass tent pitch - β€’ Non-electric grass touring pitch Pitch details as listed by the booking provider β€” availability and exact pricing shown at checkout. ## Lodges & pods - πŸ›– Bell tent (basic) - πŸ›– Bell tent (large) ## Hook-up ⚑ Electric hook-up βœ• πŸ”Œ EV charging βœ• No electric hook-up listed β€” worth confirming directly if you're bringing a caravan or motorhome. ## Facilities 🚿 Hot showers βœ“ πŸ“Ά Free WiFi βœ• 🏊 Swimming pool βœ• πŸ›’ Onsite shop βœ• 🎠 Children's play area βœ• πŸ– BBQs allowed βœ• πŸ”₯ Campfires allowed βœ• 🧺 Laundry βœ• 🎣 Fishing βœ• πŸ› Hot tub βœ• β™Ώ Accessible facilities βœ• πŸ…ΏοΈ Hardstanding pitches βœ• 🍽️ Bar/restaurant on site βœ• Composting toilet Shower available Washing-up area D. of E. welcome Family friendly Motorcycle friendly Single-sex groups welcome Barbecues allowed Campfires allowed Dogs allowed Dogs allowed all year Peaceful Remote location Spectacular scenery Walkers' paradise Wild camping ## Takeaway & food delivery Handy if you fancy a night off cooking β€” here's what delivers near this site. ### πŸ₯‘ Just Eat β€” 23 takeaways deliver to this postcode (DL8 4LG) SPAR - Hildyard Row - Catterick β˜… 5.0 Β· Alcohol, Groceries Co-op - Richmond - Market Place β˜… 5.0 Β· Groceries, Alcohol Greggs - Catterick Richmondshire Wlk SC β˜… 5.0 Β· Sandwiches, Breakfast Subway Princes Gate β˜… 5.0 Β· Sandwiches, Lunch Co-op - Colburn - Broadway β˜… 5.0 Β· Groceries, Alcohol Checked 26 Aug 2026 β€” always confirm on [justeat.co.uk](https://www.just-eat.co.uk/) before ordering, as coverage can change. ## Nearest supermarkets Handy if you're self-catering or need to stock up on arrival. - Co-op, Leyburn 4.9 miles - Tesco 10.9 miles - Aldi, Catterick Garrison 11 miles - Lidl, Richmond 12 miles - Morrisons, Barnard Castle 18.6 miles - Sainsbury's, Ripon 19.3 miles Straight-line distances β€” the drive will be longer.

The views are amazing, whatever the weather. The walk up can be fun, but worth it! The stone cairn gets rebuilt from time to time. Last time we were here it was just a pile of rocks, now built into a circular shelter. Must not leave it so long before we come back... 4 years ago Β· via Google sue dickins β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… Glorious views of Wensleydale and over to Coverdale from the top. Beautiful at any time of year. 11 months ago Β· via Google BrownTea β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… More paths on top than marked on map. Great views.
