About the rallyTuesday 22 June - Thursday 1 July 2027Join fellow members for this summer camping and caravanning rally set right by the beautiful Yorkshire Dales. We will be staying at the Riverside Campsite which is just south of Skipton. There's plenty to see and do during your visit. Explore the historic market town of Skipton, with its impressive castle, canal boat trips and popular markets, or discover the stunning scenery of the Yorkshire Dales National Park. Nearby attractions include Bolton Abbey and the Embsay and Bolton Abbey Heritage Railway, while the Keighley & Worth Valley Railway takes you to Oakworth Station, famous as a filming location for The Railway Children. You can also visit Haworth, home of the Brontë family, or travel on the spectacular Settle–Carlisle Railway to see the iconic Ribblehead Viaduct. During the weekend, Skipton's free annual Sheep Day celebrates the town's rich heritage as a historic sheep market with entertainment and activities for all the family. Saltaire, a UNESCO World Heritage village with galleries, museums, shops and cafés, is also within easy reach by road or rail. Skipton is just a short drive or an 8-minute train journey from Cononley Station, which is a short walk from the campsite. There are also regular buses to and from the town. You can enjoy canal boat trips from Skipton, and there is beautiful walking countryside close by. Cononley is a small village with a couple of places to eat and drink, as well as a village store. There are also a number of charming villages to explore in the surrounding area. We hope to organise a group visit to Skipton Castle for a guided tour, a group trip on the Keighley & Worth Valley Heritage Railway, and even a group ghost tour – if you dare! Other group activities, meals out and social events will be organised throughout the rally. All welcome. |
