Secluded lay-by, uneven ground
B6479, BD24 9NZ, Stainforth
Been here?
This lay-by is slightly below and separated from the main road, offering seclusion and lovely field views. It is uneven, with dips, rises and some flat parking areas. A HGV stayed overnight and another arrived around 7am, but the road becomes quieter later. The waterfall is about 20 minutes away on foot.

Its not flat unless you intend to block the single track at the bottom. In the section Id consider the layby i got a bit
Quiet lay-by separated from and slightly beneath the main road so feels quite secluded. Lovely views across the fields. Dips down and back up again but there are flat areas to park on. There was a HGV parked when we arrived which stayed all night, and another one arrived around 7am the following morning which woke us up. Other local lay-bys seemed to have them too. But otherwise a nice spot.
About 20 minutes' walk from the waterfall, which is very convenient!
I stayed here for one night, very private. The main road gets quiet later on, but even when busy, it didn't bother me. Once parked, you are off the main road and can't really be seen. I stayed Saturday evening, and there was nobody else there all night. It's the perfect place to stay for visiting Stainbeck and Catrigg Force waterfall. It's only a minute up the road where you can wild swim.
Fine for one night's rest
