Liked: Absolutely adored our time here. Location serves as an excellent hub to explore both the immediate area and the rest of the Dales. Site is small and meticulously well kept, although it is served by portaloos don't be put off as they are kept spotless, the pitches are well marked out and generously sized. We are essentially 'glampers' and have a pretty big set up. We fit our large tent and porch, a windbreak and our car into the pitch with ease. The field is flat, grass is well looked after and the flag under fire pit rule means it is free of unsightly burn patches. The shower tent is a useful and easy to use extra and something that you rarely find on small pop up sites like this one. Andrew is a very attentive host and was there multiple times a day. The site is overlooked by quaint cottages so feels nice and secure. Andrew was very good with his knowledge of the area for walking and things to do, and I promise when we return I will be buying a map from you! Dog loved the site too, and it's location was ideal for popping into Malham, Grassington and Skipton and the local walks are to die for. I highly recommend the farm shop and cafe situated just over the road for a lovely breakfast. I will most definitely be returning in the future. The site is busy on the weekends which is understandable and then becomes considerably quieter on weekdays so I would tailor your stay based on that if you have preferences. The price is really a steal compared to a lot I found in the area especially considering I booked at short notice. Many thanks for having us and we will be back next season.

Liked: Just back from 3 days camping at Jean's Field Campsite and what a lovely, peaceful place.
Nestled in the village of Cracoe, it's ideally situated for exploring Grassington, Burnsall, Linton etc.
We are a family of 3 who enjoy camping in peaceful, basic sites where we're allowed to use our fire pit (and meet other camper's dogs ... sometimes their owners too) between hiking and exploring in our car.
This quiet site is ideal if you're like us.
It has a fresh water tap (with drinking water) and some clean buckets available (so you can fill them and wash yourself/ brush your teeth etc.) A tent shower (we didn't use it) and 2 portaloos that are the cleanest and most presentable portaloos I've ever seen. 🤷🏻♂️
The owner Andrew is the perfect host. Very friendly, helpful and full of brilliant local knowledge - should you need it? He recommended some really nice walks to us from the campsite, when I asked him.
We also bought (as requested) our firewood, kindling (and some newspaper) for our fire pit from him and it was more than enough for 2 nights (he asked the following day if we had enough kindling/ paper still and would have happily given it to us for free, but no need as we had plenty).
The pitch sizes are great! We felt nicely spaced out.
Also, within a 15 minute drive there is a lovely Wetherspoons (The Devonshire) in Skipton and also a McDonalds, Greggs etc. so we didn't even bother cooking for ourselves.
We will 100% be back to stay again for 3 simple reasons. Perfect, peaceful site, ideal location for exploring and it's lovely owner: Andrew.
Thanks for such a great mini-break. 😁
Disliked: Nothing.

From the manager: Hi Peter. Thank you for taking the time to write such an insightful review.
I think you've covered exactly what Jean's Field offers good campers like yourselves; I let the location and setting do the talking and assist with the basics, whilst I am on hand if required to hopefully enhance your stay.
It was good talking to you and interesting to hear about your passions. See you again soon!
Perfect spot for a lovely stay. We was greeted by the owner…

Liked: Very quiet site tucked away from the main road.
Quiet walk to back entrance of local pub ( down the lane through a small gate into the back of the car park 👌)
Owner was friendly and made sure the other campers kept quiet when it got busy on the Saturday night!
Within 10-15 minute drive from lots of great spots ( Grassington, Linton, Burnsall, Appletreewick, Skipton)
- portaloos kept very clean throughout stay
Disliked: Shower not really an option but we took the kids to local leisure centre for a swim ( Craven Leisure centre in Skipton which also has a brilliant playground for all ages!) and had hot showers afterwards
