Pennine View Caravan Park

Mountain Camping Pod (Sleeps 2 plus max 2 child)

Pod
1 Bedroom
Sleeps 4
2+ Pets

Pennine View a family-run caravan and camp site on the edge of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, a mile from the centre of the historic market town of Kirkby Stephen. It sits at the midway point of the Coast to Coast route and are only a short drive from both the Lake District National Park, Yorkshire Dales National Park and the North Pennines, meaning that there are lots of walks and cycle routes nearby catering for all tastes.

This beautiful wooden pod can sleep up to 4 people with a big double mattress and a pull out mattress for up to 2 children. The pods also come fully equipped with heating, light, a fridge and a kettle. In addition to the stunning mountain views, outside each pod, guests can make use of a BBQ and picnic bench

Guests will need to bring their own bedding, cooking equipment and utensils, towels and charcoal for the BBQ.

Well behaved dogs are allowed in our pods, however you must bring your own bedding for them.

Our spacious washrooms are well appointed and open 24 hours. They boast individual wash cubicles with mirrors, free hot showers, hair dryers and a deep sink in the ladies for baby bathing. A large disabled room is available in both the ladies and gents, which can be used as a family cubicle.

A children’s play area is provided with a swing and climbing frame with slide. Children must be supervised whilst playing on site.

We have a small shop in reception selling essentials to stock you up when you run out. (Plus chocolate because that’s an essential in our eyes!)

We offer free WiFi to our guests on site across all accommodations

Superb

We love Pennine view, the site is very clean and tidy, well equipped for couples families and pets. The owners and staff are very friendly and welcoming. The location is amazing for walks, beautiful scenery at the back of the site which leads to the viaduct walk into Kirkby Stephen village. The engine shed on site for drinks food and to chill out with friends is perfect. We go back 2/3 times a year, and will continue to do so xxx

If you are a hiker, this campsite caters for all your needs.

Stayed here many times whilst hiking many different multi day hikes. I am usually in a one man tent but as it was out of season I managed to grab the mountain pod at a good price especially if sharing the cost. If hiking, the availability of washing and drying is helpful, and the separate showers near the hikers spot is thoughtful. Also, you have access to a kitchen which has a kettle and microwave and a few other useful items. Lat of all you don't have to go off site for a pint and pizza, you have the Engine shed which is more glamours than it sounds! And of course you can wonder into Kirby Stephen and grab almost anything that you might need, it's actually worth spending another day to explore and possibly rest. One of my favourite campsites and featured a number of times on Ambling Trails. v

A perfect pod!

We booked this pod as a last minute getaway based on location and value for money against other similar Pods in the area and we are so glad we did. What we perceived as good value before arriving, became unbelievably so shortly after arriving. The pod was exactly what we needed for 2 nights for 2 adults and a small dog, the park really have thought of everything without cramming too much in a small space. The amenities for campers are excellent, clean toilets and showers close by, a warm kitchen area with the pay per use hob ( if you happen to forget your own gas stove). We went to The Engine Shed for a quick drink and chose to sit outside as it was very busy inside but excellent service and friendly staff none the less. The whole park itself is relatively small but you aren't crammed in, the pitches were well spaced out and even though it was busy with families, children and other dogs, it still felt a nice quiet site.

Love this site, would like more cabins so more of our friends would stay at the same time. Love the bar restaurant but not over impressed with the food. New shower block refurb is great.

Pod was great - bathrooms less so

We were in a pod and used the camping facilities. The toilets smelt of stale urine - and were communal. As a female - I don't want to go into a toilet which a man has used and left the seat up and splashed urine all over the seat and floor.The shower head in one of the showers was not attached to the pole - had to be held up by hand.Nowhere obvious to leave the key upon leaving.

Lovely little site, great pub with food onsite

Atkinson, Craig - 13/08/2025

We stayed in one of the pods, upon arrival it was obvious someone had left the window open overnight so it had rained inside! The staff were quick to clean up and couldn’t apologise enough, so didnt spoil anything.The site is small but great shower and toilet facilities which are very clean and quite new. There is a pub onsite that opens everyday at 4pm, each day they do a different menu and the food is lovely. Childrens park onsite if you have kids. Nice little village 20 mins walk down the road with plenty of shops and pubs. Not much to do nearby but Ingleton Falls is less than an hour away which is a full day out, Brough castle ice cream parlour is 20mins away or you can just chill on the site.Overall a great little site

Booked the smaller pod, for 1 adult, 1 child & 2 dogs!We all fit perfectly, Pod came equipped with fridge, kettle, cutlery & a mirror ( which came in handy) The main toilets/showers were immaculately clean. Equipped with hairdryers/straighteners - I did find the toilets nearest to pod not as so, however it’s school holidays and lots of children. Food/drinks reasonably priced and pizzas are delicious Park overall is clean/tidy 100% would return/recommend
