Margaret and Jim Taylor welcome you to their family run Camping and Caravan Park in Dentdale. The site is conveniently situated close to the centre of Dent, within easy walking distance of all amenities - shops, pubs and places to eat - and with superb views of the surrounding hills. Sample the local beers, brewed in the dale at Dent Brewery or visit a craft shop.
 

Dentdale is a timeless, peaceful dale to spend a relaxing holiday, and is a perfect base for walking, cycling or touring - by car or using the famous Settle Carlisle railway. It is within easy reach of all the Yorkshire Dales, the Eden Valley and much of the Lake District. There is an outstanding variety of walks, from a rewarding fell walk to the top of Whernside, one of the famous Yorkshire Three Peaks, to a delightful riverside stroll along part of the Dales Way, which passes through Dentdale.

In spring the daffodils brighten up the gardens and the lambs frolic in the fields. In summertime the hedgerows and hay meadows come alive with flowers and an evening stroll is a delightful experience. Autumn brings an abundance of new colours to the trees, and then winter arrives with its bright frosty mornings and maybe even some snow.

High Laning is open all year round. You will arrive to a warm welcome and leave with many happy and lasting memories of a very special place.

Dentdale is a hidden treasure waiting to be explored - a secluded, tranquil dale in the Western Yorkshire Dales National Park. The river Dee flows down the valley, sometimes disappearing underground through cracks in the limestone river bed where only cavers go.

The lush green valley, with its stone walls, scattered farmsteads and wild-flower hay meadows, is a haven for wildlife. The peaceful valley, the open fells scattered with sheep and the wild upland moorlands, the limestone and the gritstone, provide a wide variety of wildlife habitats to interest the naturalist, birdwatcher and geologist.

The lime kilns, bell pits of open cast coal-mining and the old workings of the Dent marble industry remain, to remind us of a rich and varied history. The well-known Settle Carlisle railway line, completed in 1876, runs across the head of the dale and over Denthead and Arten Gill Viaducts. Trains stop daily at Dent station, the highest railway station in England. Be green and leave your car at the station and sit back and enjoy the magnificent Dales scenery.

Dent, with its white-washed cottages, cobbled streets and beckoning alleyways, has a timeless quality and a long history. it was the birthplace of Adam Sedgwick, the famous geologist, who is commemorated by the Shap granite fountain in the middle of the village, and by the Sedgwick Trail which crosses the Dent Fault in Garsdale nearby. Dentdale was also famous for its thriving hand-knitting industry and for its Quaker connections.

There is a rich culture in the dale which is home to many craftspeople. There is a varied programme of events throughout the year which visitors are welcome to attend. Come for the Dentdale Run or the annual Dentdale Festival at August Bank Holiday, which carries on ancient traditions and is always popular.
