About This Experience

Welcome to Breaks Fold Farm, a peaceful, family-run traditional hill farm, campsite, and shepherd's hut glamping site run by Richard and Louise Pullan. We are 4th-generation hill farmers here in the stunning Washburn Valley, North Yorkshire. Completely non-commercial and offering a relaxed rural location on the edge of Thruscross Reservoir, our 225-acre farm is home to a mixed flock of sustainable livestock, including hardy Herdwick and traditional Swaledale sheep. It provides the ultimate tranquil base to explore the Nidderdale National Landscape and the wider Yorkshire Dales area. Proud Heritage: Our scenic farm fields were featured on Channel 4's "Carry on Glamping" with Johnny Vegas as the original location for his famous Field of Dreams glampsite! Traditional Grass Tent Camping in Nidderdale | Yorkshire Dales Unplug and escape to our peaceful, 3-acre traditional grass camping field at Breaks Fold Farm. Located in the heart of the stunning Nidderdale National Landscape, our working hill farm offers a relaxed, back-to-nature atmosphere right on the 3 Dales Trail route. It is the perfect scenic base for hikers, cyclists, families, and solo travellers looking to explore the beautiful Washburn Valley and nearby Thruscross Reservoir. Our spacious grass field operates on a first-come, first-served basis, allowing you to pick your own perfect spot to pitch up in this blissful rural location. To protect the peaceful, rural atmosphere of our farm, our grass pitches are strictly reserved for: Traditional Tents (separate bookings required for multiple tents) Roof Tents & Tentboxes Small, short-wheelbase campervans (e.g., standard VW campers with regular driveaway awnings) Electric Hook-Up Camping & Touring Pitches | Washburn Valley | Nidderdale | Yorkshire Dales Enjoy a comfortable, hassle-free stay with our premium pay-as-you-go electric hook-up pitches at Breaks Fold Farm.
