Touring and motorhome site in Leyburn with an 18-hole golf course, restaurant and bar.
About Akebar Park
Akebar Park in the Yorkshire Dales suits touring caravanners and motorhome owners who want more than a basic pitch. The site has an 18-hole golf course and an on-site pub and restaurant, so you need not leave to eat well or occupy a day. Lodging is clean and well-maintained, with hot tubs available. The setting is genuinely quiet, with wild fowl and genuinely dark skies—useful if stargazing matters to you. Showers are on site.
The restaurant serves reasonably priced food and staff are known for going out of their way to help. The Friars Head is next door if you want an alternative drink. The location works for couples after a bit of peace and an easy meal, families who want activities on-site, and touring visitors who prefer a site with character to a standard caravan park.

What visitors say
Reviewing the golf course: for the money thought it was brilliant. Varied, interesting, not overly long but still challenging. No bunkers but plenty of water and hazards to keep you busy. Pretty. Great value and suitable for beginners. Kept fairly well. Would recommend.

This park is in a great location, nice and quiet but within driving distance of some lovely local towns and attractions. The on site pub is very welcoming and serves a decent menu, although it gets a bit too busy so they struggle with serving food. There's also a free mini golf which is ok for kids. Not so keen on the accommodation, it was clean and the hot tub was nice, but we found the dishwasher wasn't working and full of dirty water. The master bedroom was a good size, but the twin rooms were so small only one person could get in at a time, and the beds were tiny, nothing like a standard single as advertised. This might have been ok for a family with little kids, but didn't work for us as a party of adults. We really felt that the use of 'luxury lodge' was a disingenuous description of what was basically a static caravan, nothing like the lodges we have stayed in elsewhere. If we'd realised just how unsuitable the accommodation was for adults we wouldn't have booked - as it was we cut our stay short because no-one was getting any sleep.

From the resteraunt to the sleeping quarters within the static homes, I am in disbelief as to how this place can help loosen up city life. The views and attractions in the area are all 5 star in my opinion.

Located nowhere and doesn't have many facilities everything is very confusing no walking pathway nothing. Maybe ok for pensioners, who don't have to do much
