WILSON WOOD FARM - INGLETON [146]







Friday 2nd October – Tuesday 6th October 2009

Care is needed on the final approach to this CL as the road is narrow if a large vehicle approaches from the opposite direction.

This is one of those sites that you know, as soon as you enter, that the owners take pride in its appearance. Mostly on level grass with a couple of hardstandings the pitching area is well maintained and all the services are grouped together near the entrance. Traffic on the road between Ingleton and High Bentham can be a little intrusive during the day but usually quietens during the night. Robert, the owner met me on arrival and explained everything including most of the local attractions. Guidance on anything he left out will probably be found in the onsite information hut.

The nearest bus service runs along the A65 about ¾ miles away. Ingleton has a convenience store and a few pubs and is very popular with tourists. Anyone requiring a supermarket would need to travel to Kirkby Lonsdale.

Unfortunately I didn’t get much opportunity to look around the local area as my next grandchild decided to put in a premature appearance, so I nipped home to find out more. As she is in a high dependency unit no one apart from Abigail’s parents could see her because of fears from Swine Flue infection so we are all making do with photos taken on mobile phones. I hope she likes caravanning, can’t wait to find out.

This is a good CL as previous comments state care is needed on final approach. We go to this site a lot but you need to book well in advance in the summer months or bank holidays. Robert the owner is very helpful .
