Thanks hillwalker! The canopy is called "Easi canopi" and it's by Outdoor Revolution. It's available from a few places on the internet for approx. £50-£70, but I think the cheapest place we found for it was UK Campsite website.

Rainwater does tend to create a large puddle on the roof of the canopy though and this can be a problem in the middle of the night if it gets windy. The weight of the puddle combined with the wind starts to rock the van a bit! So I'm on the look out for some sort of pole that I can use to raise the height of the canopy in the middle of the roof section. Hopefully that'll put an end to my nocturnal adventures - taking down the canopy in the wind, rain and dark, fun and games, ha ha!

Now there is a character who knows how to get his teeth into something. :)
 
Gillr49 - thought it was, lovely views but the meals ain't cheap!! We are spoiled where we live as we have an "all-u-can-eat" carvery for £3.25 plus several "2for the price of one " establishments!

Our pitch when we stayed there .

;) ;) Agree, a lovely site and we are defintely going back.
Cycled into Skipton and drove up to Grassington for a meal (pre 6p.m. super saver) so never ate at the Heifer. The drinks were good though.
We did pass some lovely looking laybyes on the way into Skipton on A59
which with a bit more courage I think we will go for.;)
