Masons Campsite

Masons Campsite sits on the banks of the River Wharfe in Appletreewick, a quiet village in the Yorkshire Dales National Park near Skipton, North Yorkshire.

The site has been welcoming caravanners and campers for nearly 70 years and accommodates tents, caravans, campervans, and motorhomes.

A main field offers electric hook-ups on every pitch, while the adjacent river field provides a more relaxed, open setting for families. Glamping options include yurts, safari tents, and geo domes.

The River Wharfe runs directly alongside the site, giving guests easy access for paddling, wild swimming, and paddleboarding. Firepit hire is available on a first-come, first-served basis.

An onsite kitchen serves freshly baked pastries, coffee, bacon sandwiches, and handmade pizza, and a small shop is on site. The campsite is fully dog friendly.

Walkers are well placed here: the Dalesway footpath connects Appletreewick to nearby villages including Burnsall, Bolton Abbey, and Grassington, with the Red Lion at Burnsall reachable by a riverside walk of roughly 1. 5 miles.

Two country pubs are within a few minutes' walk of the site.
