Holme Farm

The walker's campsite in Horton-in-Ribblesdale that earns its reputation by putting the Three Peaks route directly across the road.

Holme Farm sits in Horton-in-Ribblesdale at the heart of the Yorkshire Dales, a working farm that happens to be the most logical base for the Three Peaks Challenge. The walk starts just across the road. That proximity is the whole point, and the site makes no attempt to dress it up as anything else.

Tent pitches are marked and separated from the hardstanding and grass bays for campervans and motorhomes, which face out towards open valley views. The village is immediately on the doorstep: pubs, cafes, and the cafe-bar at the Station are all within easy walking distance. Settle is a fifteen-minute drive for anything more substantial.

Facilities are functional and honestly priced. Showers, toilets, laundry, and electric hookup for motorhomes cover the essentials. The owners run this as a proper farm operation rather than a managed campsite, and that attitude comes through in every review: a warm greeting, things left out for guests, a pragmatic ease about the whole thing. Dogs are welcome on a lead.

Before you book

  • This is a working farm on a through-road used by quarry lorries and early-morning walkers. Light sleepers attempting the Three Peaks should expect pre-dawn noise.
  • No shop on site or in the village, bring provisions.
