Although they don't usually allow wood burners because we were the only two tents on site the staff were brilliant and allowed us to use them. Winter field has a little slope on it but not too bad. Staff really helpful with walks in the area and prepared leaflets. Facilities super, new and clean. Great weekend...Read less.

We arrived mid afternoon during a period of easing of the heavy rain encountered in South Yorkshire.

The poorly signed entrance led us down approximately half a mile of the worst road/track we have ever used to access s caravan site!

The deep ruts and potholes were obviously full of the incessant rain, but even if dry, there was no option to manoeuvre around them on the narrow stone walled track.Half way down it was evident that work was starting to widen the track, but this only cofounded the accessibility due to machinery,vehicle and bollards.... a very univiting start to our stay

We were sited near to the “old” toilet/shower facilities, and whilst they were clean and warm, the actual 2 showers were very poor....1 with very little power/pressure and 1 that only stayed on for for 4 seconds and difficult to get much heated water.

It is difficult to understand why they could not be replaced with suitable showers heads and controls.

The weather did not allow for much exploring of the site and I’m sure things would look different in dry weather,BUT the entrance road is appalling and,in my opinion, should be closed and repaired to avoid serious damaged being caused.

...Read less.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Facilities were ok - shower cubicles were dated but large and had plenty of hooks and a bench. Would have preferred shower heads to be adjustable but as hairdryers were provided it was fine. Showers and toilets were clean. The narrow lane in and out of the site was full of potholes and urgently needs attention - we arrived during heavy rain which made it even worse. The pitch was spacious with ehu close by. Other facilities such as water were easily accessible. There was also a well stocked shop. Unfortunately, not all other guests were considerate eg very early in the morning, when it was still dark, a motor home parked near us started to continually rev their engine, slamming doors then revving again until probably most (if not all) the campsite was awake. Other sites we have visited stipulate a quiet time between 11pm and 7am for the benefit of all guests. The location of the site is very nice with plenty of trees and a duck pond (with plenty of ducks!)

...Read less.

This was our second visit to Holme valley. As per the first, the staff were very friendly and helpful. Not many camping at the end of October so had the choice of where to pitch. The facilities on site are very well maintained and clean, and the shop, although small, does seem to have most of the essentials you'd need if you've forgotten things....Read less.

This park is in a lovely location. However the access road is very uneven and pot holded. Also the area at the back of the pond is very tight for access with a caravan and we had to man handle the caravan into position to face the opposite direction....Read less.

We stayed in Holly cabin. Our first experience of glamping rather than camping under canvas. This is definitely the way forward. We stayed mid October and would recommend the cabins to anyone. Only drawback is the road in is very bumpy and as we arrived after dark it was a bit difficult initially to find the gate and hard standing for parking at the cabins. But staff went above and beyond calling us with directions and they left the cabin lights on to make it easier to locate. We had a great time and will definitely be back....Read less.

Arrived early and pitch was still occupied. ad to wait (but it was our fault for arriving early) but we made good use of the time by grabbing breakfast at the on-site food hut.

Could not fault facilities and staff, the only slight down side was that out pitch was surrounded by trees and so had no direct sun....Read less.

Whilst this campsite has much to do to improve its access, tidyness and facilities, its redeeming feature is its closeness to the town with the option of a reasonable bus service or a pleasant walk along the river. Not so good during wet weather with so many trees overhanging the pitches....Read less.

Stayed 27/9/19 for a couple of nights on a very wet torrential rain weekend. Don't let the lane down to the site put you off, just drive slow! It could do with levelling though. Looked at pitch were originally had been allocated for stay, but also offered an alternative and chose the 2nd option. Only facility I used was showers and toilets and these were kept in a perfectly clean state even with the bad weather. A bit worried I might get stuck in field with car due to the unstoppable rain, but no straight off both mornings. Staff I came across whilst booking in, very helpful and friendly. I will definitely recommend.

...Read less.

We were supposed to camp for 2 nights but following non-stop rain we decided to cut our losses after the first and as such probably didn’t explore everything this site had to offer. What I can comment on is:

- the bathroom facilities are excellent: modern, warm and clean even in spite of horrendous muddy weather

- we were on the New Field and after a week of solid rain the ground was still firm underfoot, not a big

- the setting is very pleasant, with a lovely duck pond and wooded areas surrounding

- our kids (4 under 10) enjoyed the play area which again is fairly recently installed and in good condition

Unfortunately the food service was not running at the end of September, but we found fish and chips not far from the site

The only improvement I would want to see (in light of our own experience with the weather) would be a sheltered area where campers could eat/sit out of the rain when the weather is as bad as it was for us. Otherwise it’s a great site that I would recommend....Read less.

Pleasant secluded peaceful site. Very helpful friendly staff with excellent facilities. Easy walking access to the local area and bus stops. One big drawback is the difficulty of access towing caravan on narrow very rough half mile tarmac gravel access road. Resurfacing would be great improvement....Read less.

Holme Valley Campsite is like going home. The staff are just so friendly and helpful. We often stay when there

are bands playing at the Picturedrome. Its also perfect for a day out in Huddersfield. But.....we keep saying that

the park is so beautiful that we'll come and stay put for once! I could while away many hours watching the ducks and the heron and walking along the river and in the wood. We'd love the owners to write a little bit of background history about what drove them to buy this lovely place. Dave was chatting to a lady in Holmfirth who said she remembered the mill. Yes we love it and often recommend it to our friends in Barnsley. Can't wait to come again. Thankyou!...Read less.

Ideally situated for Holmfirth and the Picturedrome, 30 min walk.

Picturesque site with our pitch overlooking the duck pond, very peaceful.

Lovely friendly staff who were very helpful.

Excellent new washroom on camping field but the one on caravan pitches could do with a refurbishment....Read less.

This was our second stay as a family this year with a group of friends with kids. This time we hired a family bathroom to share. The whole trip was great. Camping by the river and seeing all the ducks was fab....Read less.

We found the entrance to the site easily from the directions given, but found the transit down the lane quite scary due to it's very uneven surface and width. This may be due to the fact we have an A Class motorhome, but inexperienced drivers, or drivers of big caravans could come to grief. Once onto the park we were greeted by a very helpful receptionist who suggested the many parking options open for us. We opted for a nice quiet spot near the river, but were warned we might be shadowed by the ducks.

As we were only stopping for two nights, we only used the showers/loos which are superb. The shop is well stocked.

A really nice site and a lovely location.

Resurfacing the access road would be a great addition, as would detailing a number of areas.

We will return when transiting through the area....Read less.

Beautiful little site, friendly and helpful staff, immaculate facilities. Easy access to Holmfirth with a bus stop right outside but also a pleasant walk into town. We stay regularly with friends when attending events in the town as it’s great value for money....Read less.

Had 1 night here, it’s was a fab stay ( pitch 9 hard standing corner ) only draw back with that pitch was it was to near the water tap and it was used as a cut through for everyone passing on to the large camping field.

Children riding bike across your pitch to a bit of a bumpy hill for bike riding , alls it really need is a fence to fence the pitch off so people have to walk round . This would give privacy.

Otherwise we had a excellent stay with a fab view of the very large pond.

We would go again but not that pitch....Read less.

We always enjoy our stay at the park and have visited several times over the last 4 years. It has good facilities, helpful staff, good on site café and is within walking distance of Holmfirth and all its attractions.

The only drawback is the surface of the long lane leading to the site. You do need a good torch if you return in the dark....Read less.

Friendly welcome. Nice site with some lovely walks. We were in a motorhome and had a pitch among the seasonal with a view of the pond, next time I would ask for one of the hard standings in the open. I would return if I needed to be in the area. The road to the site is in serious need of attention though, take care when opening lockers....Read less.

Arrived Friday PM after a short journey from home. Was met by a lovely lady, whom quickly got us booked in, and shown to our pitch. Such a pretty campsite and only a 30 minute walk to Holmfirth. Every need catered for, food, electric hook up, shower/toilet block at both ends of the campsite. My only negative comment would be that the shower/toilet block near the shop is in a little need of updating, toilets would not flush due to lack of pressure/water. However this would not stop me revisiting, as I have on several occasions....Read less.

This is a well organised site with excellent facilities. We were lucky enough to get a oitch next to the pond which allowed us to watch fishermen and duck close at hand.

Saw lots of wardens to help the place run smoothly.

Very pleasant site which we would return to....Read less.

Camped for 3 nights over August Bank Holiday weekend. We had a good spot in the top field which was quiet. Some friends were in the Pods in the same field. Toilet block nearest to us was down some steep steps but didn't need to go in the night so wasn't an issue. Toilets/showers were a little dated but clean and had everything required for our stay. Water tap was nearby as we're the bins

We made full use of Kampers Kitchen during our stay. We had breakfast sandwiches/ evening meals. They were both tasty and Reasonably priced

We did a treasure hunt come pub crawl around Holmfirth which was great fun and the weather was fab!!...Read less.

This site is amazing value for money everything you need for a quiet break . Definitely will be returning.

Driveway could do with some TLC but as a whole brilliant and definitely will recommend to friends and family x...Read less.

The site is great and the location is lovely. Toilets and shower facilities were spotless and modern. Staff were great and very helpful and friendly. Lovely river and trees surrounding the site.

My only suggestions or criticism would be that the site seemed a little full; this could be due to us going on the last weekend of the school holidays, but it seemed like the tents were very close together. Secondly, I understand the reasons for having a no fires rule (especially with such close proximity of tents), however, sitting round a fire with loved ones on a evening is one of the key charms of camping, and most sites I have visited in recent years allow and provide/charge for fire pits/bowls. Just a thought....Read less.

Great site but a little bit roudy later on, lots of unsupervised kids kicking footballs at tents (thankfully not mine!)

Other than that, it's a great site if a little overcrowded.

Thank you for a great stay....Read less.

Spent a couple of nights here at the end of the summer holidays with my two sons, ages 4 and 7, and our family dog. Had a non-electric pitch in the middle of Bottom Field. Was a popular field with families, which is understandable as this is where the play area and facilities are. Enjoyed our time here, spent time riding bikes in the camping field, paddling in the river and exploring the woods. A great place for a break, we will be back...Read less.

We spent 2 nights here within the August holidays and the site was nice. Had a large lake perfect for those who like fishing. We went with a 5, 7 and 9 year old. My 9 year old wasn't as entertained as the other 2 as the park on site was rather small for larger children more suitable for our 5 year old. If you don't have electric you have to park and pitch right in the middle of the field. Ducks were walking around site which was nice until 5am in the morning when they were making a racket right outside the tent. Overall nice site and local to supermarket in Holme FIrth...Read less.

Motorhome’s are welcome and park was very good however there isn’t a purpose built Motorhome service point available so we struggled emptying the waste. However we are now equipped to not get in this situation again so it was a learning curve for us . But has not put us off using the park again....Read less.

On arrival pitches 17 & 18 were very soft underfoot, there was an offensive smell which at first we thought was just been blown in.

When we took our tents up the stench was actually coming from the ground.

I have been camping for many years and I have never come across ground in this state before. On our return home I had to get our big tent out and thoroughly disinfect it and leave it to dry, fortunately the weather was warm and windy enough to dry it out. Disappointed I had to spend a few hours doing this after a few days camping though. I e-mailed Holmevalley but had no individual reply.

I might return in the future but will certainly look elsewhere first for a better kept campsite and responsive owners....Read less.

We enjoyed our stay & the location of the park was great for us (only 30 min from home). The park was lovely, our children enjoyed the play area & I was pleasantly surprised at how clean the toilet/shower block were - you could see there was agreat deal of pride and cleanliness. The food from the campers kitchen was delicious. The only thing we missed was a camp fire & this led to us going to sleep much earlier than usual as we would normally have been sat around the camp fire chatting & enjoying the atmosphere. This is the only thing that would prevent us from returning because we really did miss this & our children were really looking forward to toasting marshmallows etc. Thanks for a really enjoyable stay 😀...Read less.

What a great site

Great location, picturesque surroundings, good facilities

The food offering from Kampers Kitchen is amazing, from full English breakfasts to home-made curry dishes - didn’t need to get the camping stoves out all weekend apart from to make a cup of tea

Can’t wait to come back again...Read less.

Everything was good. It was clean all round. Kids loved the stream and fishing. Everything was close by so not far to walk eg. Washrooms, fresh water, playground etc. We went non electric hook up as they have all facilities on site....Read less.

Holme valley offer camping in pods, tents, caravans, motorhome and tents. It's a lovely place with onsite laundry facilities, shop ( reasonable prices ), fishing pond, playground and a river running through. If you didnt fancy getting the stoves or bbq out you could visit Kampas Kitchen, it's open from breakfast through to 9pm ( check last orders) offering freshly cooked food all day. We missed last orders for the Sunday special ( lamb and potato curry, needed to order the day before ) however the lovely lady that runs the kitchen cooked a chicken and spinach curry from scratch and delivered it to our tents in large cooking pots. It was gorgeous!! We had a group of 13 adults and 13 children in 5 tents and a motorhome. the site was very accommodating. We were in the new field. This area had plenty of space in the middle of the field to ride bikes, play cricket, frisbee etc without bothering other campers. We waded in the river , walked to a local pub, fished on the pond. Overall we have had a fab weekend. Would reccomend to all families.

Thank you Holme Valley

The Hardwicks and friends...Read less.

Even though we live only 20 mins away we love staying at this campsite and this year we stayed over the August bank holiday weekend so the weather made it even better!! Kids love love playing in the stream, on the park and this year enjoyed archery. We all enjoyed the annual duck race too.

There are two big supermarkets only a short drive away which is fab as it means you can do you camp food shop daily.

Our only issue this year were the showers, felt like you were trying to wash in a fine mist. It wont put us off coming back though....Read less.

Bustling and busy park. Lots of children around so it's better to go out for the day unless you fancy listening to children scream all the time. Facilities are the best around. Organisation fab and staff friendly. Too many campers and cars on one field for my liking, and as a result the field felt cluttered and dangerous should there be a mass exodous - maybe consider one or two cars per tent max as the tent next to us had four cars for the four of them. I know some campsites have a car park for extra cars. Love the electronic doors but you can't open them with one hand (soap bag, towel, clothes in the other etc.) due to the handle being too small! These areas for improvement are incredibly minor and we will return....Read less.

Went to watch a band in town with my wife was back on site10:30 ish as we had nothing to eat while we was out i popped the BBQ on. I know theres a rule of no camp fires and such after a certain but 2 members of staff came up to us and said it looked like a camp fire to them and it clearley wasn't and went on to say if we did it others on site would think it was ok to do so .. Its a BBQ and im mature enough to keep my eye on it. Anyway they let us carry on and the burgers were brilliant . Just think that rule could be relaxed a little . It was probably some idiot fooling around in past that as spoiled it for people like us ..Anyway that has'nt put us off hope to see you soon .. Thank you...Read less.

We stayed here for the bank holiday for its location, unfortunately the weekend started with the narrow drive to the site, full of deep pot holes, if you missed them with the front wheels the back wheels or caravan was definitely getting it!

Check in was ok, the ladies on reception were nice and polite.

The sites quite cramped but the pitch was easy enough to get to, although unfortunately constantly shaded by huge trees.

Apparently there's 2 sets of toilets & shower blocks, unfortunately ours was shocking, nice posh digital keypad to get into an old run down shower block. The shower itself my wife refused to use, there was spiders and other insects everywhere you looked, the shower was a 'push in type' it literally lasted about 3.5 seconds before it had to be pushed in again, meaning you have to wash with one hand!

Anyway, we ended up cutting it short and coming home early on the Sunday morning as it wasnt for us.

But like i said the staff were lovely and its in a great location....Read less.

Beautiful site, kids love it, large pitches, very helpful staff, the toilets and showers are absolutely second to none they are cleaned morning, afternoon and night, it's just a shame that young children are allowed to visit the toilets alone and make such a terrible mess, stuffing sand in the plugholes,out of the sandpit, and then turning the taps on full is a disgrace from a five year old girl who was unattended in the toilets. The only time I have seen the facilities a mess is when people don't leave them as they find them, there isn't a toilet attendant on duty 24 hours a day to clean up after unruly kids. Playground could do with the swings back for younger kids. The Rock Inn is a good cheap food pub just off site. We had a lovely stay despite the weather....Read less.

Road onto site full of potholes and uneven may put us off going again.

We used the older of the 2 shower toilet facilities which were pretty poor. You have to hold the shower with one hand whilst trying to get washed with other hand. Full of cobwebs and bugs....Read less.

Booked this site because my family live in Slaithwaite.Road down to the campsite is a nightmare and money should be spent fixing the many potholes.Staff in reception were helpful but I didn't appreciate being ordered out of reception just because I had a dog on a lead.A lesson in public relations wouldn't go amiss for the gentleman in question....Read less.

First time here & won't be the last. A lovely, well kept & clean site. Check in was easy & straightforward.

We were allocated plot 5 in the bottom field which was close to a particularly muddy spot & puddle. It would be helpful for that to be filled with straw to soak it up. A few close encounters whilst walking over the field for all campers & cars.

Lovely walks in the vicinity, river was fun to play in & the site was well managed...Read less.

Stayed at this sight as we have family in Holmfirth, the site was packed on the Saturday of our arrival, but there is plenty of room and the excellent facilities easily coped with the numbers. The site is kept clean and tidy and the staff are very helpful. We have stayed here before and will certainly come again.

The only downside for us was the amount of dogs running loose, even though it clearly states they should be on a lead, as we had two dogs with us, that we always keep on the lead on campsites, it is annoying and must lead to dog poo being left around....Read less.

We meet friends here every year and have always been happy with the parks location, cleanliness and range of activities on offer both on site and surrounding areas. There have not Ben any issues with noise- most are families who are happy with lights out at 10.30, so great for children. Ours spend the whole time in the stream or in a tree....Read less.

Fab site in great surroundings.Only downfalls- difficulty entering x exiting through the narrow lane due to traffic flow. Actually scratched our vehicle due to a woman in a large audi that couldn’t drive it (+my own impatience with her)

-Miss having a campfire but heyho

-shower pressure is not great but they’re always clean x tidy which is great 👍🏼...Read less.

We had a very wet few days, but still enjoyed our time there. The camping field did get very muddy - obviously nothing could be done about the weather! The facilities were good, lovely surroundings and some nice walks in the area.

The lane entrance to the campsite is quite tricky to navigate, with lots of potholes, and sometimes the need to reverse (when you cant't see the potholes!) to let other vehicles pass....Read less.

The access road is appalling full of potholes particularly not good for a disabled person with back stenosis. The roads inside camp also full of potholes. We mentioned this to Reception with very poor response about cost and although bags of aggregates were left about on site no attempt was made to even temporarily fill some of the worst potholes. We also felt caravans were crammed in and very close to each other. We also noticed arrivals area had cars parked on it so it would have been impossible to park a caravan there....Read less.

Terrible road onto the site where the wheels will get damaged over time and would never recommend this site on this one aspect alone. There were some holes filled with stones but all the staff just sat around all day on the customers chair and table outside the shop drinking tea, chatting and eating for hours on end when they could have been improving the facilities. Toilets old but clean but the shower was rubbish as didn't stay on for more than 3 seconds so end up showering with one hand as the other is on the push button. Spent money on an electronic toile block locjk and not the facilities - get your priorities right!...Read less.

Contract work in Huddersfield means return visits to this site. Handy for catching the bus into Huddersfield rather than taking the car. The site is in pleasant surroundings & very quiet. The newer toilet facilities are superb & perhaps the older block, which is showing its age will eventually be updated to enhance facilities. The staff are friendly & extremely helpful. It's quiet even in the tourist season & very quiet & peaceful through the winter months. It makes for a very pleasant & peaceful stay....Read less.

Whilst the site itself was very good and provided amenities the site was let down by the initial entrance from the main road, whilst this should not detract from the holiday this was the only route in and out of the site, and as I was visiting family this route was used at least twice a day. Beautiful surroundings made for a very pleasant and relaxing short break....Read less.

We spent 2 nights here and were really impressed. We picked the site because of its proximity to Holmfirth but were really impressed. Staff were so friendly and accommodating and the field, despite a lot of rain, was ideal for the tent and the kids.

We shall be returning and would recommend this site to families....Read less.

Negatives out of the way first-the lane down to the site is like pothole central😫no pots in the cupboards by the time we got down the lane,also it’s quite steep with no passing places. Second thing which is not a gripe just a suggestion, there were LOTS of kids which is lovely to see them enjoying the park but it would be nice to have a small section of adult only pitches (sorry sound like a grumpy old pensioner🤣I’m not I’ve had 3 kids of my own) but would be nice just not having kids running and screaming around my caravan. Staff lovely and friendly, facilities average and clean. The lane is a definite to sort because we wouldn’t come back for only that reason! 😊...Read less.

Lovely spot by the river and withing walking distance to pubs and the most amazing Italian deli and restaurant. Love the campers kitchen and pizza fab, great idea. The new amenities block is lovely but the showers only trickled and there often wasn't any hot water. The only negative comment I have though...Read less.

Lovely site tucked away in nature. Stayed in top field, slightly sloped but really quiet which is how we like it. Quiet river side walk to the pub with a park across the road. Kids loved the park on site and the stream. Shame the pizza oven wasn’t there, maybe next time 🤞🏻...Read less.

Really need to sort out the path leading to the site. Littered with pot holes. Some people are bringing expensive cars/caravans with them and they could be damaged. Spoke to some people onsite who love the park but won’t return unless the path is sorted....Read less.

After many years in various customer facing companies, one becomes a little tired of the "soundbites" often used

but rarely practised; however, when EVERY member of staff is so obviously singing from the same song sheet about "...…..only being interested in their customers having a memorable stay" then one realises that SOME people really do care about their customers. Jeff/Geoff (not sure of the correct spelling) Linda, Mags you were unbelievably helpful and always went that extra mile! The campsite was patrolled by Jeff every night to check everyone was Ok!

The best organised campsite we have stayed at and as we live in Austria and travel to many parts of Europe this is a 6 STAR review. THANK YOU...Read less.

Lovely helpful staff

Just too noisy for us, kids running round tent at night so didn’t sleep too well.

Bit cramped too on some of the fields.

Sure it’s great for large groups staying together but just not for us. Staff are very good though x...Read less.

We're a family of 7 adults and 7 children staying in 2 tents and a caravan. We stayed from Monday to Friday and gas a great time. Even the torrential rain didn't dampen our spirits! The kids played out all day every day on the park or found new friends to have a game of football with. One if us brought his fishing tackle and fished the pond a couple of times. We hired a bathroom which was a Godsend and great value for money. Next year we're hoping to stay for a full week. Thanks Holme Valley....Read less.

In a great location this campsite had everything we needed including a little shop with good prices and we will be back.

Only slight downside is the showers which spray fine and slow so those with long hair would find it difficult getting shampoo out, the floor was also very slippy so be careful.

Staff were excellent and dealt with an issue we had swiftly....Read less.

Facilities have expanded and improved over the years but not overdone. Still has a much valued family feel. We have camped there many times. However, we hired a pod this year and found it excellent value for money. So relaxing.

Being so close to the village of Holmefirth with good public transport, the site is perfect. All the staff are just Ace....Read less.

Myself and John love it here it's quiet relaxing and has a chilled atmosphere even when fellow children campers are having fun it's not to much as the park is big enough for everyone and is laid out in a way that if your not child fond or you are escaping your own you can be away from them and not hear them either. There is a great community feeling within the site with fellow campers alike which you don't always get on other types of holidays...Read less.

We love it here! It's so peaceful, everybody is so friendly, children play nicely together, the field with the childrens play area is very open so you can see where they are whilst sitting and relaxing, I highly recommend it. Other campers were very friendly and even helped to pitch our tent. 5 stars from us....Read less.

The road down to the campsite is extremely poor and we would not have gone had we been made aware. The shower block next to the shop is very poor. The pitch we were put on was so small when we put our step out to enable us to get out of the motorhome that it was on the next pitch!! We had no where to put our chairs so lucky for us we had to put them on the next pitch as there were no one there. The campsite is very narrow and not really suitable for large motorhomes....Read less.

First impression of the park was very positive with friendly and helpful staff. Stayed in the bottom field by the river which was just beautiful. Washroom facilities were first rate - roomy and clean. Delighted to see recycling bins and while I wasn't staying at a time when the food facilities were open they looked great. Looking forward to going back next year!...Read less.

CAMP ROAD WAYS

THE SITE WAS GOOD BUT THE ROAD WAYS DOWN TO THE SITE AND ON IT WERE A DISGRACE FULL, OR POTHOLES AND GULLIES. THE ROADS WERE SO BAD IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY EASY TO DAMAGE THE SPRINGS ON THE CAR OR CARAVAN. THE SITE WAS FULL AND MUST BE TAKING A LOT OF MONEY. ITS ABOUT TIME SOME OF IT WAS SPENT ON THE ROAD WAY FROM THE A6024 DOWN TO THE SITE. ALTHOUGH I ENJOYED MY STAY ON THE SITE I WILL NOT BE GOING AGAIN UNTIL THE ROADS ARE REPAIRED. MR. A. LISTER...Read less.

Booked to attend an event at the Picturedome in Holmfirth. Decided to make a weekend of it. Site was easy to find. Staff friendly and we were offered a choice of an alternative pitch as the field we had booked had been affected by recent rain. Excellent facilities especially the modern clean toilet and showers and the Kampers kitchen. When booking please be aware of the strict no noise times as these are enforced and are not for everyone. We didn’t mind. Have already recommended and hope to return....Read less.

Lovely place with modern facilities tucked away near the river.

Good shop with most of what you'd need.

The kids play area was enough to keep our little ones entertained, although it could have done with a clean out as parts were a bit smelly.

There were activities for slightly older kids (7+).

Tiny bit of road noise from across the river but nothing that bothered us....Read less.

Staff were very friendly and helpful at check in. All facilities were explained and we were given a map of the site. We were shown to our pitch. The facilities available were very good and well maintained. Site is lovely with a large pond with ducks and s river running beside it. It is an excellent base for exploring the local area, particularly Holmfirth. It is easy to find access. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The site was perfect for visitors with children but was not too noisy.

...Read less.

Lovely area. Top field steep if mobility issues. Pod lovely. Could possibly do with small indoor broom and mop to assist with cleaning ?.

Road into site extremely bumpy and full of deep potholes. Badly in need of repair.? Better site signs on main road needed. However lovely stay and staff very helpful. Archery great fun. Thank you...Read less.

Fabulous stay in the field by the river, where we saw kingfishers. A very beautiful place and the staff were pleasant and so helpful. Toilets, showers etc. were spotlessly clean. Lots to see in the local area and superb walks....Read less.

Had another great stay. Nice, pleasant site and nice facilities. Toilet and shower block immaculately clean. Shop had plenty of choice for anything you've forgotten.

Main field very busy at weekend but probably to be expected in summer....Read less.

The staff were friendly and helpful, both in the lead up to our visit and during our stay. Linda had been assigned to look after our group, and I felt she was caring and genuinely concerned that we enjoyed our stay at Holme Valley Campsite. We are already booking another holiday here 🙂...Read less.

We have used this site every time we have visited our son at Huddersfield University. We have always been warmly welcomed despite the time of arrival which has frequently been delayed due to the M1 traffic! Facilities are fantastic. Love the size of the showers and they are always clean. We stayed this time for our son's graduation so although we won't be visiting him again this site will always be in the back of our mind as a lovely site to stay on and we'll try to be back....Read less.

Returned with grandsons for second year, this time with their mum and dad (on first ever camping trip for my son in law) and two dogs. Fantastic, relaxing weekend helped by great weather and delicious food from Kampers Kitchen. Everyone loved it, even my non camping husband who came for a day visit!...Read less.

Perfect couple of nights away for the second year. Perfect location, friendly staff. great onsite shop and this year, the Kampers Kitchen was a real treat for dinner on the Saturday night.

Our kids LOVE to paddle in the river and we always enjoy a walk into Holmfirth.

Lovely peaceful campsite, stayed in the Riverside quite corner for adults only, it did not disappoint, all facilities clean and tidy, local amenities close by in the Holmfirth/Brockholes and some lovely walking...Read less.

We chose this site for it's beautiful location and it is within easy travelling distance to relatives in Penistone. When we arrived the site exceeded our expectations, it was beautifully laid out and the staff were very friendly. We look forward to returning regularly....Read less.

Campsite was nice and tidy and staff very friendly. Nearby river had kids paddling and playing and there was space to play. Some of the pitches were a little tight for camping vans and caravans to navigate due to some awkward pitches and trees. Entrance road needs resurfacing as particularly bumpy. Would also benefit from a traffic light system as entrance road too narrow to pass and would hate to have to reverse a caravan down it; there is scope for bedlam!...Read less.

I have been coming to this park for a number of years and the last year you have made great in roads into smarting this up some of the resident caravans are a disgrace and have up to just recently made moves to tidy it up. Keep going as your site other than that is quite lovely...Read less.

The camp was clean and staff friendly only criticism would be maybe more toilet and shower facilities per field as there was alot of families camping that weekend and found the toilets and showers to be very busy. But apart from that it was all spot on! Thanks for a great weekend...Read less.

The park is lovely, facilities excellent, we had a nice pitch by the river & were welcomed every morning by a gang of ducks 🦆. Quiet and very rural.

The driveway, though is awful, potholes big enough to damage car or caravan & so narrow with the stone walls either side, I don't know what would happen if 2 vans met in the middle.

The only other problem was a caravan that had a very smelly coal fire on one of the seasonal pitches....Read less.

This was a step up for us as we usually stay in tents at campsites. The pods are lovely and in a nice location. Loved the woods backing them, the nearby river and the wildflowers by the car parking. All the staff were friendly and helpful. I put 5 stars for the quality of wash facilities which I have given for the newest toilet/shower block, not the old one. The campsite is a wonderful place to stay and the pods are great. Would definitely go there again....Read less.

Been here several times, good location and plenty of room with pitches spread out over several fields. Easy online booking process, freindly staff, toilets and showers kept clean.

My only criticisms realy are as others have said. The track down to the site is narrow and potholed, and the old toilet block could do with updating. The new block is great however.

My Husband and I loved this place. We stayed in Willow Glamping cabin. it had a shower and indoor loo which were brilliant. neither of us drive and we always wanted to try a cabin or glamping so this was ideal. so close to home and yet it felt miles away. The only criticism is that the road approaching the site is Shockingly Bad ....so many potholes it was like traveling off road. the staff were all friendly. and the site is beautiful. loved sitting outside our cabin reading. we went for a little walk toward Hagg wood. but we just wanted sit and watch the ducks and ducklings and squirrels. we went for 2 nights so i could have my birthday there and it was perfect. the shop was well stocked and the information board inside was excellent. it would be even better if they had static caravans to rent out or more pods with indoor plumbing so we can go with our friends who don't do toilet and shower blocks. we are already trying to decide when we are going back and our neighbours were so impressed by our enthusiastic description they have already booked to go this sunday.......Read less.

We loved our stay at Holme Valley.The site was lovely and clean and the area is beautiful. We didnt travel with children this time but would deffinetpy return with my children,the park is great for them and lots of space for them to run around....Read less.

Perfect site for visiting summer wine country. Manageable walk into holmfirth or regular excellent bus service. Beautiful setting for caravans and motorhomes in a wooded area with a pretty duck pond. Lovely to have the Kampers Kitchen also. Would return in the future....Read less.

Very helpful & friendly staff and new toilet block is excellent. Site would benefit from thinning out trees allowing more light, reduction in the number of old static units, replacement of old toilet block and a resurfaced access road....Read less.

The en-suite pod at Holme Valley Camping & Caravan Park is very comfortable and being situated next to the lake, it has a great location. It is a very popular site which has good on-site facilities for camping, caravans and motor homes and we were met by friendly staff who were very accommodating. Although we appreciate the dimensions of the pod itself, a few extra hooks to hang clothes in the en-suite shower room and in the pod itself would be a great addition as would a small shelf over/next to the basin would be helpful. That said, we had a great weekend and would certainly recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing break!...Read less.

Very happy with our facilities.Very unhappy with the access track full of potholes.When damp a skid going up hill on the cards.Some of the permanent outfits left a lot to be desired(needed a good clean) spoiled the look of that part of the sight....Read less.

Stayed here for the first time, clean, friendly site, great location, easy access to Huddersfield in bus, £6 for 2 adults to use all day! Nice new bus too! Nice walk by river to Summer Wine Brewery, The food from the cabin on the campsite is an excellent idea, Bacon n egg was very nice. Will try the chicken n spinach curry if it’s on next time - 😁- we booked a hard standing by the river, and will certainly book the same next time....Read less.

This site is in a beautiful location surrounded by trees. The caravans are a bit too close together, it would be better if they were more spaced out. We were promised a pitch by the lake but had 3 vans in front of our pitch blocking the lake view. Bit disappointing and the people in those vans were all together and quite noisy in the evening. Would possibly go back if we were actually given a pitch by the lake. The site staff were very attentive to what was going on around the site....Read less.

Well once again we have had a great time at Holmevalley, kid's loved every minute of our stay making new friends and catchup with friends from last year, we never have complaints about anything here , great place to spend time and great staff. One of those places once you have been you will want to return....Read less.

I planned the weekend with my family, we had a lovely drive from the st helens area and found the site easily. I was directed to my pitch in a very friendly manner and had a few great days just relaxing. The toilet blocks are kept very clean and each shower on as plenty of space. The children in the group had a smashing time in the play area. The whole site is well maintained and is relaxed and peaceful. Look forward to using the camping pods in the future....Read less.

Staff very friendly basic shop peaceful surrounding park could do with an update no swings ect not the first time I've stayed here I'm a wild camper but love this place so relaxing fishing can be great too!!!...Read less.

Very nice campsite in lovely location. Showers were clean and warm. Site was kept neat and clean. Great shop onsite. Nice walk through woodland to next village. Holmfirth about 30 minute walk away. Nice shops, cafes etc. Good for younger children....Read less.

My self and 8 other ladies along with our 10 children and grandchildren age 3 to 12 go camping every year in may this year we chose to come to hilmvalley has I had been previously on 2 other occasions both camping and in one of the pods with friend it's a lovely site owners are lovely and helpful you do get odd camper that are inconsiderate with their dogs but those people are ignorant. I will be returning for another trip in August...Read less.

We chose your site as we needed somewhere that was good value for money and had cabins and camping. We though your cabins were great value for money and the fact that they had cooking facilities, fridge and lots of other extras included made it really easy.

we came as a group of 3 families and loved the fact that 1 family was in a cabin and the other 2 families could camp nearby meaning our kids could lay together without having to go out of sight. the only down side to this was the field where the cabins were is on a slope and so we struggled to find a level pitch.

The staff were really friendly and helpful and you could see that the site was really well looked after as there were always staff about doing jobs.

The Kampers Kitchen was great and the food from there was really good value and tasty.

we ventured out on 2 days and had lunch at a lovely pub up the road, as well as walking into Holmfirth on one day as well, which also had lots of places to eat and drink.

we will definitely be back to explore some more of the surrounding area.

Thank you!!!!

The overall experience was good with all facilities well maintained. Family friendly site and the staff are very polite and helpful. Pods are lovely, clean and well kept. Room for improvement would be to suggest that permanent pitch holders take down their awnings as the site is mainly under trees so the fall out from trees onto the awnings is unsightly...Read less.

We chose Holme Valley based on its price and that several friends had stayed and liked it. We stayed in the May half term between Mon-Fri. We were made very welcome and I cannot fault the staff on site or the pitches themselves. Very spacious & well maintained. The site is clean and in the main it is quiet. The shop was well stocked and the bathrooms were pleasant. There is a lovely river at one side of the campsite, I would recommend a walk through the woods and onto The Rock Inn, for good, cheap food and great service.

A few disappointments though...The Kampers Kitchen was not open, strange considering it was half term week and the site was full. I understand they only open at weekends. We would've made good use of that!

The washing up facilities weren't good, you had to keep the tap held in to get any amount of hot water, and even that didn't last. This is fine if you are just rinsing dishes, but we like to cook every day and there just wasn't enough hot water to get anything clean.

On the subject of noise, although it was a generally quiet site, we were disturbed 2 nights by loud noise from adult parties and also children on the park, well after 11pm, there was no warden around so I had to sort it myself.

This is definitely a 'weekend' site and we would probably come again but for a shorter time.

...Read less.

Stayed for 3 nights in May half term with 2 children. We stayed in the top field which did have a slight slope but was quieter than the main field. Kids loved the play area and we went on a couple of short walks along the river directly from the campsite. Facilities were good and were constantly being cleaned - an impossible task given the weather and muddy boots! Had everything we needed for a short break...Read less.

My partner and I stayed for two nights at the end of May. We booked a pitch on the Riverside corner field (adults only). Even though it was school holidays we felt like we had our own quiet corner away from the rest of the world. The toilets and showers were always kept clean and the staff were always happy to help with any queries. Lovely walk through woodland down to Holmfirth where there is a small brewery/pub called The Nook (definitely worth a visit!). Will be returning again sometime soon....Read less.

Although there was a new wash block, the showers in these were terrible, the water pressure was very poor and they sprayed out so wide that to get my hair and that of my young daughter washed we had to soak a flannel and squeeze it over our heads. The showers in the old wash block only stayed on for 4 seconds making showering with young children very difficult. Although you had family bathrooms for hire, none of these were available as when I asked to hire one I was told that people had hired them up to a year in advance for the duration of their stay of either 48 or 72 hours. Who needs a bathroom continuously for 72 hours??!!. I know that you can hire the bathrooms for 45 minutes and while hiring them out for up to 72 hours may make money for the campsite, it makes life very difficult and adds stress to a holiday when you are not able to use these facilities especially as shower time with young children is not an easy task at the best of times. Maybe it would be more helpful to customers if these were hired out on a first come first served basis each morning for 45 mins at a time rather than allowing people to book them for such along time so far in advance. We were situated in the top field and while we arrived early and found a reasonably unsloped part of the field, for those who arrived later were pitching on a steeper angle, not easy for cooking. I’m not sure this field is really that suitable for tents. However the bottom field which was flat was very noisy so I’m glad we were in the top field as it was much more peaceful.. overall if the washing facilities situation was addressed then I would possibly come back. However I couldn’t fault the staff they were lovely and helpful....Read less.

As a family we love camping here and return each summer for at least two weekends! It's a wonderful campsite and the children enjoy the freedom of being on a safe campsite with a playground, woods and river - not to mention the ducklings in the pond!

The facilities are great, and Kampers Kitchen with its beautiful and tasty food is the icing on the cake. Would highly recommend. We have already booked our next stay!...Read less.

I found this to be a lovely site in a lovely location in Yorkshire, perfect for a family stay as there were lots of young kids around for mine to play with. The facilities we clean and well kept and the food 'hut' was perfect considering our late arrival (not enough time to BBQ but chips and kebabs all available within 15 mins) and the weather.. not able to BBQ on the Sunday. We will definitely be staying again and i couldn't recommend more.

We love this site. after living in Spain for 3 years we travelled back to the UK in our motorhome stopping at many sites. When we got back to Holmfirth we lived down on the site for 7 weeks. What we love about this site is the fact that you are surrounded by huge trees, there is a large fishing lake, ducks waddling up to be fed and a fabulous walk along the river. Holmfirth is within walking distance. We actually live in Holmfirth and recently we had work done on our cottage so we moved down to the caravan park and 'glamped' as to give the builders free access to the cottage....Read less.

If you like camping glamping piece and quiet or family fun, walking or relaxing this is the site for you .

The shop on site has everything you need at a very reasonable price and all the facilities are well maintained and exceptionally clean...Read less.

We have stayed here a few times. We live in Halifax . And only had caravan a year . The staff are really helpful and friendly . Our granddaughter who is 4 now . Just loves the woods and the park . See the ducks . I feel that she is really safe on this site...Read less.

We chose the site because it allowed good access for our motorhome (albeit along a very bumpy road), and because it was within striking distance of Holmfirth where we were visiting friends. We parked adjacent to the pond, and thought the view over the water was excellent. The staff were friendly. There is an LPG refilling station on site (for those with refillable gas cylinders). Nice walk along the river to the closest pub. We were disappointed with the quality of the closest (old) washrooms. They are well past their sell-by date. There were two men's showers, one of which produced only a trickle of water. The other was just about serviceable, but ran briefly cold if the button wasn't kept depressed. There are no private washbasins. (We didn't try the alternative newer washrooms in the lower field)....Read less.

Its always a worry booking a campsite with no previous experience or recommendations of it....no need to have worried.The whole experience from arrival to leaving was pure joy. Lovely surroundings, well organised and clean site and lovely staff. The on site catering was especially appreciated! Hope to be back soon but if not deffinately next year....Read less.

Having stayed here before We knew what to expect,and We weren't disappointed.We got a very warm welcome from the staff on duty.The facilities were extremely clean and we had plenty of choice of where to park our camper.It's about one and a half miles into town if you walk on the road side or longer if you go through the woods,We were at Holmfirth for the festival of folk,despite the weather it is worth a visit,especially as the campsite is on the doorstep....Read less.

A lovely campsite near to the river. It was lovely hearing the birds singing in the morning. Facilities were excellent and the staff were incredibly helpful. The washrooms facilities were kept very clean. It was good having the camp cafe on site. My only quibble was access to the site. The road down to the site is full of potholes and very uneven. Admittedly it means you keep your speed low but I did feel sorry for the camper vans etc who gingerly made their way down. Camping fields were massive, lots of space but as it was raining i would have welcomed a firmer track to drive on. I also think with the large 'new' field that if it was divided up with a clearer track that you would have more defined space for tents etc. Lots of unused space as tents tend to cling to the outer edges....Read less.

We always love coming to this park. But.....there are so many things to do! Huddersfield is on the doorstop, so is Holmfirth and really, we must come sometime and simply stay on the park and soak up the beauty, peace and quiet, friendly buzz about the place. We have recommended it many times and will continue to do so. Many thanks to all the staff!...Read less.

Eddie the campervan and I spent 3 nights on the campsite to attend GNUF in Huddersfield. Excellent hard standing pitch with electric, lovely clean facilities, shop, friendly and helpful staff. Such a quiet campsite, slept like a log, breakfast from the Kampers Kitchen! Perfect and I am coming back again. Lovely location, close to bus stops, lovely walks.....what more could you want?...Read less.

This is a very well set out and organised site We were in the new field which was level and close to the super toilet and shower block and the Kampers Kitchen cafe . There was a little traffic noise but not obtrusive.We were there for the Folk Festival, and it was good to be able to walk most of the way to Holmfirth via paths and tracks following the route handout. The festival shuttle bus back was handy!

My only 'complaint' was about the fancy electronic key pad locks on the toilets. We had to write the numbers on our wrists to remember them and also the keypad for the gents didnt work properly when we arrived....Read less.

This is our third visit to this site which we use when taking part in the Holmefirth Festival, we always book well in advance of the dates of the festival as this site books up very quickly.

That alone is a recommendation for a tidy and well-run site that is set in lovely surroundings, trust me when I say that this a 5Star site, perhaps I should not recommend it too highly I don't want to miss out on future bookings!!...Read less.

Stayed at the park as my daughter and I were going to see a band in holmfirth. We used a taxi to get to holmfirth which was really handy, the park was great, very good value for money and an excellent toilet and shower block.

Would certainly come again....Read less.

The site advertised a free shuttle bus service to the Folk Festival. The last bus was to leave the 'festival site' (town centre) at 11pm on the Friday. My wife was at the bus departure point before 10.55 pm. The bus driver told her the bus was full and she would have to make her own way back. She was left alone in a deserted car park in darkness. I am not impressed....Read less.

We chose to stay here as a group of friends with young children. The park wasn't too far away from home but far enough so the children felt like they were on holiday.

We stayed in the glamping pods and couldn't have chosen better. They were very clean and had absolutely everything we needed. The park itsself was surprisingly bigger than expected and the play facilities were fab with the added bonus of the Kampers Kitchen. Food was beautiful with very friendly staff. We will definitely book again and would recommend to family and friends

...Read less.

The campsite overall was very good at providing clean toilet/ wash facilities and a playground for the children. The downsides were the amount of dog muck on the pitching area. Also it states you are not allowed camp fires yet a nearby tent was having one. This was disappointing as it was very cold and we would have loved a fire!...Read less.

We stayed in a group of friends with young children and the campsite was great. We'll laid out, excellently kept and great facilities, and the staff were so friendly and helpful.

Possibly not the campsite for you if you don't have /don't like to be around lots of kids, but a brilliant campsite of you do have children...Read less.

This is a well run clean and friendly campsite. Karmas kitchen is a great idea. Saved us cooking on our first night. We were camped near the older toilet block. It was very clean but was rather dated. The newer toilet block was first class. If the weather had been warmer we’d have stayed another night. The shop was well stocked and it was reassuring to know that if we ran out of something we could easily purchase it. Did not see anywhere we could freeze ice packs but it was so cold we did not need this! There may have been that facility. Would definitely recommend this park....Read less.

The campsite is in a great area for walking. Close to some really nice pubs which were recommended and also to road for access to Huddersfield and Leeds. Very quite campsite with a lot of space.

Reception staff are really friendly, the kitchen staff not so much but we took a BBQ and cooked for ourselves for the majority of the weekend....Read less.
