I know that I shouldn't be asking this question on a public forum really, but.......
Taking two 4 year olds camping requires a certain level of preparation to avoid poor performance so I'm looking for ideas for where to take my lads on their first wild camp.
So can anyone point me (VIA PM) towards any easily accessible wild camping spots in the NYM area?
Edit: we'll most likely be walking as their wee bikes are not great off road!

I’d aim for The White Horse, and then follow the Cleaveland Way out towards Osmotherly.. loads of spots along there, and it’s pretty flat, you countor around the top.
I’ve bivied just the other side of Sneck Yate, along from High Paradise Farm, but there’s a lovely spot by a barn just before you cross the Boltby Road if little legs aren’t up for more distance..

I took our twin 4 year old boys out camping at the weekend. But I took the easy option and went on campsites.
1 night at ellerburn and a few miles in dalby then a night at a beaut little site at bungdale head farm and a spin around the green trail at Sutton bank.
The boys did great and were loving the off road riding and never ending supply of snacks.
