There's a campsite in the next field over from Malham Cove - https://www.malhamdale.com/camping/ - that might be worth looking at. Short walk into the village, great walks from your tent and you could even do some climbing while you're there.
Isn't he at the Gordale Scar campsite? He occasionally gets so fed up with the aggro he gets from those who just want to party, that he says he's shutting the place down, but so far never has AFAIK.

I think you're right about DaveHK meaning Gordale. Jean (and I think it's Norman) at Malham Riverside are always receptive to a chat.
> Just booked the weekend at Usha Gap, the owners sound lovely.
Good choice
We've gone there a few times over the last 10 or 15 years, most recently at Easter. Initially it was just the wee field on the opposite side of the road from the farm but they've now opened a bigger field and done the facilities up. The pub in Muker is good too.
They’ll open up a third field too if it’s busy enough. Me ‘do you want a deposit or payment in full’, her; ‘oh no just pay when you arrive’; how refreshing.
