Clarion Lodge is a small campsite and maintains a family-run atmosphere against the beautiful rural backdrop of the mid Wharfe Valley and the rest of Yorkshire. The site is close to the market town of Otley for places to shop or dine, and has Chevin Forest Park for rambling opportunities just opposite. With Leeds not too far away as well, the site is ideally located for travellers making journeys along the North-South route.
