Wharfe Camp is a small, adults-only camping and glamping site on the edge of Kettlewell in the Yorkshire Dales National Park, near Harrogate. The operator keeps things deliberately quiet, offering just five spacious tent pitches divided by hedging, one campervan hard-standing, and two fully equipped camping pods, all sharing clean communal facilities including toilets, washbasins and an electric shower. Kettlewell itself is only a five-minute walk away, with pubs, a deli, ice cream parlour and village shop, plus a car park with EV charging points. Further afield you can reach Kilnsey Trekking Centre, Kilnsey Crag and the Dales Way walking route, with Grassington, Malham and Harrogate all within driving distance for day trips exploring the wider dale.
