Hi guys Really pleased you enjoyed it. I have to say that it is one of our favourite sites this year. So much going on and as I said to you so quirky pitches. Great Vlog and drone footage excellent. Really makes a difference. Keep it up. Andrew, Jo and Tilly

[@LeisureBit]

Hi Andrew, Jo & the beautiful Tilly it was lovely and I’m not shocked it’s one of your favourites. Perfect In every way. David is just getting used to the drone I do have to say I’m impressed with some of the footage although I found that quarry a bit spokie 😳 Rachel, David and Roxy 🐾

[@Wheres_wanda_wandering]

Campsite looked lovely. Leyburn looked a pretty place and the waterfalls were glorious.Take care Gill

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you Gill, it is a lovely place. Quaint, cute and interesting 💕

[@timw2973]

Looked a lovely site, great hearing the birds anss seeing the rabbits too. Love the walk to the waterfall, seemed so peaceful as well as the lovely scenery around the area. 👍

[@LeisureBit]

Thanks Tim, there was a noise in the early hours of the morning which I couldn’t identify and it turned out to be a peacock- no idea what happened to the picture of it I took. It’s a lovely site very close to nature - all the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@timw2973]

Looked a lovely site with the birds tweeting and the rabbits sat there. Great dog walk / exercise area for Roxy too. Love the trip to the waterfalls, something quite relaxing about water. Generally great scenery with a few good local attractions, definitely worth a visit. Thanks guys 👍

[@LeisureBit]

It’s a wonderful site, we really enjoyed it - really exceeded expectations and on arrival I wasn’t sure but then it grew on us and kept growing 😀 all the best, David, Rachel & Roxy

[@danielrussell446]

Great video David Rachel and Roxy again such a beautiful area and the site looks really nice and well looked after and lots of facilities on site and places to see in walking distance seems such a peaceful site where you could get away from it all hope you all had a great time

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you - we had a lovely time. You’re right it’s the sort of place you could go to get away from it all - one of those magic ones where you’re not too far from everything but far enough. All the best, David, Rachel & Roxy 👍

[@CamperVanya]

We found it to be a great area for cycling the country lanes here. Very peaceful and beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Sue 😊

[@LeisureBit]

Thanks Sue, It’s a lovely area isn’t as you say and it’s fantastic how peaceful it is. It really exceeded expectations for us and they were pretty high. All the best, David & Rachel ❤️

[@lynnhirst1]

Thank you for such a lovely tour of your stay at Harmby ,we stay quite near there so will definitely check out that beautiful waterfall ,its such a picturesque area 😍🙂🌳

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you for the comment and you’re most welcome. It’s definitely worth checking out the waterfall - all the very best, David & Rachel 👍

[@VANFLIPPINGTASTIC]

looked really nice there , love the waterfalls and Roxy enjoyed it . great site . thanks for the video great stuff...

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you - Definitely worth a visit - nice and peaceful but not too far from anywhere 👍 All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@Wizardinthewild]

Campsite looked really nice. Great facilities. Good you can let dogs off. Lime kilns looked like a real feature. Pretty walk to the falls. Falls looked awesome. Those cows❤️ always wanted to go to Leyburn. So very interesting to see what it’s like there. Definitely worth a visit! Very ornate pottery. With you on the site layout. Much prefer nooks and crannies ! Great location for a site. Very nice 👍 😊🧙‍♂️

[@LeisureBit]

Hi guys when you do your North tour please add it to you list to visit. I loved the site, but then you know my views on lines 🤣 Roxy loved the falls but adored the dog field..she kept pretending to want to go out just to drag me back there 🤣 Rachel 💕

[@Wizardinthewild]

So pretty. We shall have to visit. Pleased Roxy enjoyed herself. A tired dog is a happy dog 🐶 We do! Not big on straight lines either🤣😊🧙‍♂️

[@TravelwithGaryandAmika]

That looks like a lovely, I'm with you Rachel about the not parking in a line, feels more at nature. Good narrating David, I really enjoy your videos,will have to pay this site a visit I think. All the best both 😊

[@LeisureBit]

Thanks Gary, I think you would both love it - there’s some great places around the area both campsites and wild camps - apparently the Wensleydale Railway is great fun if you and Amika fancied that too - keep meaning to try that one. All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@colinwade7005]

Looked very nice. Roxy looked to enjoy the dog field

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you - She loved the field - kept wanting to go back in every time we went out 😀 We really liked the site and would definitely go back. All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@touringtroughtons]

What a great looking site excellent for dogs and like you said right in nature. We are off to North Yorkshire in a couple of weeks and we now have more ideas on what to do and where to go. Thank you for sharing.

[@LeisureBit]

It’s a lovely site, pleased it’s been useful. Leyburn and the area is well worth a visit, as is Richmond. In fact the whole of the dales are amazing - I’m sure you will have a great time, let us know how you get on - all the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@G.J..Journeys]

Lovely location for a campsite 👍 Graeme

[@LeisureBit]

Thanks Graeme it was beautiful 💕

[@sylviapage8572]

We planned to visit Leyburn a couple of times and something cropped up which prevented our visit so hopefully we’ll get there sometime soon. Thanks for sharing another entertaining video.

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you - I’m sure you will enjoy it when you visit and it will have been worth the wait. All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@icebluerocket3488]

Great informative video lots of useful info thankyou

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you - pleased you found it useful - all the very best, David & Rachel ❤️

[@2twinsters]

Hi David, Rachel and Roxy. Just catching up on some videos and this is a lovely one. The site looked really quiet and peaceful. Were there any children's facilities there. I really like it when they put mirrors on narrow lanes and wish it would happen more. The walks nearby looked good and we always love a good waterfall. I like how you do your vlogs as we are looking at ways to streamline ours as we film too much then editing is a nightmare. You get the balance of film and narration just right! 👏👏😍😍

[@LeisureBit]

Thank you that’s really appreciated - it’s difficult isn’t it to try and work out what’s best to do. I don’t recall any specific facilities for children (like a play area) but certainly lots of places to explore on the site and you could do a great nature trail - the Wensleydale Railway would be a great day out if that’s yours/their scene and lots of other places to visit. That’s waterfall wasn’t too far too - really pleased we took the time to have a wander to it 😀 Thanks again, all the best, David & Rachel (and Roxy too!) 👍❤️🐾

[@2twinsters]

@@LeisureBit thank you David! That is very useful information and we will definately have to have a trip North soon! Thanks again Elaine, Mike, Samuel and Thomas 😍😍

[@paulfrankcom8953]

Another great video. We were at Richmond Hargill but LW looks nicer and no noise from the A66. Thanks for the info will definitely give this one a look.

[@LeisureBit]

It is a lovely site quietly tucked away. Definitely recommend checking it out - was there much road noise at Hargill? All the best, David & Rachel 👍

[@paulfrankcom8953]

@@LeisureBit hi Hargill was nice but a fair amount of traffic noise at the top end. Staff were really good though and facilities were very clean.

[@tylerstravels0610]

Fantastic area, love Leyburn, the whole place is just, well, beautiful. Another good blog David. What drone have you got ?? Have you done a video on it ??

[@LeisureBit]

It’s a lovely area isn’t it - was really pleased with the site. I got the DJI Mini 3 Pro - haven’t done a video on it as loads of people seemed to have done them - I did think about it but not sure many folks would be interested. I resisted for ages but gave in 😀 all the best, David, Rachel & Roxy
