Please note that this is a pop-up campsite, open for a limited number of days each year.

Jean's Field is a family run, pop-up site in the beautiful Yorkshire Dales, ten minutes from Skipton. Pitch up your tent on one of the non electric grass pitches or opt for a bell tent and explore the National Park's views or the pubs, cafés and farm shops close by. It's a short walk to Rylstone, home of the famous Calendar Girls, and local Grassington will be familiar to many as Darrowby in Channel 5's All Creatures Great and Small.

About the site


This relaxed site is set in a field of almost an acre, within the attractive village of Cracoe. Set in the stunning Yorkshire Dales, you will be surrounded by glorious walking and cycling country, with Grassington and Skipton both within a ten minute drive. There are just 18 grass pitches without electric onsite so it is never too busy. 15 of these are measure at 10m x 10m, which includes space for one parked car and are perfect for tents and trailer tents. There are also 3 backpacker pitches onsite for tents only, perfect for those arriving without a vehicle. There is also a bell tent that sleeps up to four, you can choose to bring your beds or hire airbeds from the site. You will need to bring all your camping gear (minus the tent!), the tents are decorated with bunting and outside is a fire pit and picnic bench. Picturesque Wharfedale is an easy five minute drive or bike ride away with a chance to see the gorgeous Dales village of Burnsall and the majestic Bolton Abbey. For walkers, the Way of the Roses is a very popular option, or Malham Cove is only 25 minutes away. Access is easy as the campsite is just off a main route into the Dales, so no need to take on miles of twisty lanes. It's set back too, giving you separation from the road. Be sure to also visit the local farm shop and pick up some fresh ingredients. Raised BBQs and enclosed campfires are permitted, so there is no better excuse to cook up a delicious feast! Dogs are also welcome to join you for your stay.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2024

Really great location, however felt the photos make the place look bigger than it actually is. There is a walk straight of the campsite, which is ideal.
