  • Relaxed family-run site on a farm in the Yorkshire Dales
  • A 15-minute drive from Malham Cove, Gordale Scar and Janet's Foss
  • Well-spaced hardstanding pitches with a large dog exercise area
Ash Keys Caravan Park is a family-friendly site in a quiet corner of a family-run 165-acre farm. This peaceful spot is at the southern end of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, half a mile from the teeny hamlet of Eshton and five minutes’ drive from more extensive amenities (pubs, takeaways and small supermarkets) in Gargrave. This is a most handy spot to settle in for outdoor activities: you can take walks or bike rides directly from the park, join nearby major trails like the Pennine Way (three quarters of a mile from the park), Way of the Roses and National Cycle Network Route 68. The fab attractions around Malham (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar) are about a 15-minute drive away. The well-kept pitches here all have electricity and water hookups, plus access to a shared toilet block, Elsan point and recycling facilities. Dogs are welcome on site, and have been give their own dedicated exercise area where they can have a good run about. Barbecues are also permitted, and perhaps at their finest when graced with good food from one of the two excellent farm shops within a 10-minute drive.

What customers say

A cracking spot on a working farm. Spacious, serviced sites with great country views. Clean facilities, including a dog wash. Top-notch welcome packs. Showers are a bit of a trek, but the peace and quiet and location for exploring the Dales are spot on. Highly recommended.

Liked Ash Keys Caravan Park: A Hidden Gem for Peaceful Getaways.
We spent a blissful, long weekend at Ash Keys Caravan Park, and it’s safe to say this tranquil spot has earned a permanent place on our campervan map. Nestled in the heart of the countryside, it offers the perfect blend of simplicity, serenity, and thoughtful touches that make a stay feel special.

Pitch-Perfect for Campervans and Caravans.
Spacious, level pitches with easy access made parking the van a breeze, even with two Labradors eager to explore. The site layout is well-considered, offering privacy without feeling isolated, and there’s ample room for awnings, outdoor seating, or a game or two. If you’re feeling a need to embrace nature you’ll adore the bunnies around the site.

Facilities That Hit the Mark.
Basic and clean shower block and toilets were a welcome surprise, spotless and well-stocked. The pot washing-up area was equally well-equipped, and everything was clearly maintained with care by Indi.

Nature, Calm, and Canine Joy.
Our Labs gave the site two paws up. The surrounding walks were ideal for morning sniffs and evening strolls, with plenty of green space and safe paths. Birdsong and rustling trees created a peaceful soundtrack, and the lack of road noise made it feel like a true escape. They particularly enjoyed the dedicated dog park for off lead fun.

Simple Pleasures, Big Smiles.
While the site doesn’t boast flashy entertainment, that’s part of its charm. It’s a place to unwind, reconnect, and enjoy the little things, whether that’s bbq dinner, a board game under the awning, or a quiet cuppa watching the sunset.

Location Perks.
Close enough to local villages for supplies or a pub lunch, yet far enough to feel off-grid. It’s a great base for exploring the region or just staying put and soaking up the calm.
If you’re after a no-fuss, dog-friendly retreat with genuine warmth and countryside charm, Ash Keys Caravan Park delivers in spades. We’ll definitely be back, very soon.

Disliked Absolutely nothing.

Local attractions

If you’re not planning lengthy rambles on the long-distance paths, set forth for some of the local highlights instead. Get going in Gargrave (five minutes’ drive) with a waterside walk by the Leeds-Liverpool Canal, then see cascades in action at Linton Falls (20 minutes). Make time for Malham too: a 15-minute drive gets you over to this fab village and its trio of top sights (Malham Cove, Janet’s Foss and Gordale Scar). After that, take an uphill challenge on the mountain paths of Pen-y-Ghent (35 minutes) or head underground to see what’s in store at Ingleborough Cave (40 minutes). Other ways to get about? Perhaps with a day of horse riding from Kilnsey or a rather more laidback trip on the Settle-Carlisle Railway – both are about 20 minutes’ drive away. And if you’ve got tiddlers who’d benefit from staying in one place for a while, there’s plenty to keep them amused among the animals, tractor tours and play areas of Hesketh Farm Park (20 minutes).
