This is a great little adults only site, where we took our 3 dogs with no
problem whatsoever.
It is a small site, but has large level gravel pitches. We were met by a
very helpful owner who pointed out that Asda was 5 mins away and there was a
nice country park 5mins in the opposite direction.
There is a key fob (£10 deposit) to get into the site and into the
toilets/showers, which are very clean and tidy. The tariff for the weekend
is £15 per night - good value.

This site is just off the M1 at Wakefield, and is easy to find. The pitches
are a good size with plenty of room for the caravan and awning. All the
pitches are separated by hedges which provide privacy.
The toilet block is modern and was always clean. The showers were really
large, not something we are used to on camp sites! And the radio playing in
there is a nice touch.
The owners/staff were all very friendly and helpful.
Asda is a 5 min walk from the site, as is Pugny's water park which is great
for walks, or canoeing & windsurfing. We also visited Sandal Castle by car,
about 10-15mins drive into Wakefield.
Overall a nice little site, easy to access, and ideally located for local
attractions.

This is a great little site just off the M1 motorway near Wakefield on a
small farm. The site itself is based around a grassed area. The pitches are
Hardstanding with electric hookup. To gain access to the site you must pass
through a security gate control by electric fob. This will cost you a £10
deposit. On the site there's toilets and showers that were always clean.
There is no pot washing area which was a downpoint to the site. We really
enjoyed our visit and wanted to book again and take our children with us
only to be told that the site only allows adults. The owner explained why
and we could understand his point, but this was a disappointment to a great
little site.

We have stayed at this site now twice and would definitely go back again.
The site itself is easy to locate just off the M1 and has great facilities.
The toilet block is clean and modern and is accessed via a fob which is also
used to enter the site as it is gated.
For those with dogs there is a large field adjacent to the camping field and
Pugney's country park is only across a road.
There also is a large supermarket nearby with pubs and restaurants all
accessible on foot. There are also a wide range of other attractions and
days out within this area of Yorkshire.

We picked the site at the last moment as where we were going to was too
boggy for the motorhome. Owner said was full but would try and get us in,
great site toilets / showers are immaculate site very secure with key fob (
£10 deposit ) to enter and exit.
Bus stop outside gate to Wakefield or just to Asda. Overall a very clean and
secure site with many attractions locally or easy to get to will certainly
be using the site again and will recommend to friends.

Enjoyed our stay at this friendly site with great sized pitches. Toilet
block is excellent. Fob controlled gate for entry and exit so good security.
Owner very friendly but without being pushy. Bus from gate into Wakefield,
Country Park within walking distance. 2 Supermarkets and 3 restaurants also
walking distance. We would return. Would be ideal as a stop over from M1
