Welcome to Knight Stainforth Hall Caravan & Camping Park

For nearly 100 years Little Stainforth has hosted both local and national campers at Knight Stainforth Hall Camping and Caravan Park in the Yorkshire Dales. Knight Stainforth is one of the oldest sites still run by the same family - the Maudsley's. We are sure you will enjoy your stay at Little Stainforth, and we will do everything we can to ensure that your stay is a pleasant and memorable one.

Tent Pitches

Grass pitches for tents will be available from 1st April to late September 2025 (weather dependent).

We offer

  • Non-electric grass pitches
  • 18 grass pitches with electric hook-up
  • Suitable for tents up to 7m x 7m

If your tent is larger than this, please contact us before booking.

When conditions allow, these pitches can also be used by small campervans or converted vans. Please note that larger motorhomes cannot be accommodated on grass – please book a hard standing pitch in these cases.

Due to fire regulations and spacing requirements, gazebos and similar structures are not permitted on the park.

Groups & Families

We are a peaceful, family-friendly site and ask all guests to respect this atmosphere.

While we welcome families and considerate groups, we do have restrictions in place to help maintain the relaxing environment we are known for:

  • We do not allow large group bookings, such as:
    • Duke of Edinburgh groups
    • Unaccompanied under-18s
    • Groups of more than 3 families visiting together
  • Adult-only or single-sex groups (such as groups of friends) may be allowed at our discretion. We kindly ask that you contact us prior to booking so we can discuss your plans and determine whether it’s a good fit for our park.

Our aim isn’t to discourage all groups – rather, to avoid bookings where a large or lively gathering could disrupt the experience for others. We reserve the right to refuse entry or cancel bookings that appear to be part of a larger group.

If you’re unsure, just give us a ring – we’re happy to help.

BBQ's and Fire Pits

For fire safety reasons, open wood fires and fire pits are strictly prohibited.

However, gas or charcoal BBQs are welcome, as long as they are raised off the ground to prevent scorching the grass.

If you have any questions or if you would like any further information about the Park, please do not hesitate to contact us.
