What a gem of a place, lovely owners ( but if they aren’t around there is an honesty box ) £3 to park for the day or £5 overnight. Super quiet and safe. We stayed on a Monday night and there were 4/5 other campers with us. Maybe takes 10. Would definitely use this again. Plus had a nice meal at the blue bell inn. Super clean public toilets over the road also. What’s not to like.
Very quiet car park. No signal. Wifi at the local pubs. Thanks to the owner for permitting overnight stops at minimal cost.
Good spot for a night, very quiet and toilets at the other side off the road.
Great place for very reasonable cost. Places like this are becoming less common, so please respect it and look after it.
Wonderful overnight stop, so peaceful, flat and plenty of space. Met the owners in the morning who were lovely and friendly. £5 for day and night is a bargain for such a nice safe spot. Toilets over the road are currently open all night. Cottage Tearoom just up the road for a tasty breakfast.
A great place. Quiet and close public toilets. The owner came to empty the honesty box and the bins every day. She was very friendly and concerned that everything "alright", and if anything wasn't then to let her know. Great walking and a fine selection of pubs - especially like the Kings Head - and a couple of cafe's.
Lovely stop for £5 the night very quiet night had a lovely meal in the pub definitely recommend
Arrived on Sunday 06 April at 1600hrs and straight into a parking place. Popped across the road to see if the garage was open to pay and the owners turned up to empty the honesty box. Well what a lovely couple, really friendly and were fine where I had parked up. Had a chat and was recommended a couple of pubs a short walk away and off they went. Suns shining, the scenery is amazing and the beer is calling. Would add this as one of my favourite places to visit, so support this gorgeous site and come and enjoy the place, but please make sure you pay, there’s an honesty box and make sure you take all your rubbish home again.
Stayed here for 2 nights on the 5th and 6th of March, a really pleasant village, a lovely cafe, and the food at the Bluebell Inn was brilliant. The gentleman who owns the car park is very nice. The only downside is there's no ATM in the village, and you need cash for the honesty box
Stopped here on route to Scotland and it was such a peaceful night right next to the river obviously no amenities but a good place for a stopover £3 parking for the day and £5 for the night.
Great spot, next to the river, on the edge of Kettlewell village. Had two quiet nights there, for a tenner in the honesty box. There were about 6 vans there but plenty of space. Public toilets over the road, close to pubs with good food, & nice walks.
Thanks so much for providing such a great parking area in this beautiful village ,3 great pubs that all do lovely food,pay in honesty box at the entrance, very clean public toilet opposite
loved it here. Great spot. very quiet despite being next to the road bridge and being full. Was an advantage getting there early cos we got tucked in next to the wall. Friendly visit from the owners who made us feel welcome. Next to a camp site but still very private. Worth a fiver in the honesty box. Very close to well equipped toilets and a few quiet pubs.
Brilliant spot! Three other vans there the night we stayed, really peaceful the only noise from the River Wharf and nature, perfect! Ate in The Blue Bell Inn food was lovely and lots of it! £5 to stay overnight just left in honesty box. Will definitely return.
Top spot. Thank you to those who own it for putting it on.
incredibly quiet, beautiful village. by far the best place we have stopped. honesty box payment. right next to the river. worth visiting here again just to stop here.
Fantastic park up. Great value for money at £5 for an overnight stop. Kettlewell is a lovely quintessential Yorkshie village with a shop, 3 pubs and lots of great walks. The only noise is the peaceful sound of the adjacent river Wharf and the sheep.
What a brilliant spot, nice and level too! With the sound of the river as background, it’s positively idyllic. 5 min walk to the pub
Great little spot right on the edge of the village and by the river. Bumped into the land owners who were tidying up branches. They have just had chippings delivered to deal with the puddles and mud, and are motor home owners themselves.
Good little spot but can be boggy and muddy. No facilities but cheap and cheerful. Spaces quite tight but worth the £5 payment. Leave in red honesty box. A bin closer to parking would help.
