Touring Park Facilities
A holiday at Studfold Touring Park offers the complete Nidderdale experience in the heart of the Yorkshire Dales. With excellent on-site facilities, you can enjoy a relaxing stay without leaving the campsite. Spend your days exploring the magical Adventure & Fairy Trail, enjoying a round of mini golf, picnicking with the family, or playing cricket and football while taking in the stunning views.
For those seeking adventure, there are beautiful walks, Lost Earth Adventures, and plenty of things to do and explore. Studfold is the perfect base for an unforgettable Yorkshire Dales holiday, whether you want a fun-filled family adventure or a peaceful escape.
Pitches
We have 38 flat, well drained, grass pitches, most of which are approximately 14m x 10m in size. All of the pitches in the first field, and eight of the pitches in the second field, have access to electric hook up.
Playing field
Our spacious, flat field is ideal for children to run, play ball games, and enjoy the outdoors. Kids can also have fun at the beck running alongside the site, splashing and building dams but children must be supervised at all times.
Camping shelter
Our camping shelter is a popular feature at Studfold, providing a covered, lit space to eat, drink, and socialise, even in wet weather. It includes a barbecue – just bring your own fuel – and we ask guests to leave it tidy and vacate by 10.30pm.
Toilet and shower block
We keep our toilet and shower block sparkling clean; it has been thoughtfully planned out and built with dry changing and private wash area for each shower, two baby change areas and disabled facilities. The washing-up area is covered and has separate grey water and Elsan disposal points. Cloths, washing-up liquid and liquid soap are all provided, and you don’t need any tokens as all these are included in your pitch fees.
Shop
We have a small shop onsite at Reception that sells soft drinks, sweets, ice-cream, small toys and gifts. There are many shops in the local town of Pateley Bridge, which is a 14 mile return journey, and supermarkets in Ripon and Harrogate.
Studfold Farm Produce is also available in our shop. Discover the unique flavour of Nidderdale through the seasons with our range of home-reared, grass-fed heritage meats – perfect for barbecues. All meats are sold frozen, unless ordered in advance.
Adventure and Fairy Trail
Studfold really does have magic hidden in its woods. Our fun and mysterious Adventure and Fairy Trail is for the young and young at heart, with surprises and so much to see and enjoy. You can book the Adventure and Fairy Trail in advance by clicking on the 'Book Trail' button at the top of this page.
Mini Golf
Enjoy a 9-hole mini golf adventure at Studfold Mini Golf, all under cover and perfect for fun in any weather.
Walks
There are many lovely, circular walks that start from and return to Studfold, situated right on the Nidderdale Way. Talk to us at Reception and we’ll point you in the right direction. Whether you’d like a few miles for your family with young children, or are up for a more serious ten miles-plus, Studfold is a great base for walkers of all abilities.
Connectivity
As you might expect in hilly country, reception can be poor. There is only partial EE mobile reception and no aerial-based TV reception at Studfold. WiFi is available via vouchers, which you can purchase from Reception. This may enable WiFi calling if your mobile phone has this facility. TV reception is only available via a satellite connection.
Laundry
A laundry area, with washer, deep sink and ironing board is available in the touring park. An industrial dryer is available in the static caravan park.
Dogs
Dogs are always welcome at Studfold, but must be kept on a lead at all times across the caravan, camping, and glamping park, static park, and Adventure Trail. They should be walked off-site, with all mess cleared up – including on footpaths through farmers’ fields.
Waste
The recycling bin is for glass, plastic and tins only. Please put cardboard and all other waste in the general use bins. We ask that barbeque coal waste is disposed of in the small metal bins we provide.
Midges
At certain times of the year, and in certain weather conditions, there can be midges at Studfold. We recommend that all guests bring repellent, just in case.
The Nidderdale Way Cafe
The Nidderdale Way Cafe is a fabulous addition for Studfold touring park visitors. There is a lovely homemade range of breakfasts, light lunches, snacks, drinks, and ‘lumps’ of cake for you to enjoy sat inside or out, as well as a very warm welcome.
Visit the Nidderdale Way Cafe page for a list of opening times and dates.
