We had tickets to see a band at the Holmfirth Picturedrome so wanted to come over in our motorhome and stay nearby. The closest was Holme Valley. What a find! A windy road down through the trees to a lovely small campsite with a stunning lake with wooden camping pods with decking areas, good hardcore sites for the motorhomes, a great shop and friendly staff. Oh, and marvellous toilet and shower blocks! Very reasonably priced as well, and just a short mile and a half walk back down to Holmfirth. Will definately come agaain and have told our 'motorhome group' about it...Read less.

Nice enough little site with an excellent new shower block facility. The electricity supply was a bit iffy on occasions (kept tripping out), knocking out the power to numerous caravans. For some reason, the telephone number provided on the camp information sheet was unobtainable so we had to do without power for several hours on one of the mornings. Nice quiet site. The entrance lane from the main road is very tight and the lane quite bumpy, but I think we'd return here. Nice little on-site shop for that essential emergency bottle of wine! There are quite a few permanent stay caravans on the site, and they are quite tightly packed in - in the height of the season I would imagine it would be pretty busy, so this wouldn't appeal to us....Read less.

We went in October, and the site was quite, I think there was 2 other tents in the bottom field. There were a few campervans coming and going

Staff kept the toilet blocks spotlessly clean.

Nice to camp near the stream, the river hid the noise from the road.

Play park massive hit with 2x 3 yearolds and a1yearold...Read less.

Fabulous pods, which are comfortable, warm and perfectly equipped. Great site overall, friendly and helpful staff and lovely location. My 2 and 6 year old had a ball. Will definitely return. Thanks for a lovely stay...Read less.

The site was chosen for its convenient position and we were pleased with our pitch overlooking the pond. The wash facilities could use updating but were ok. One of the men's showers was scalding hot and couldn't be adjusted. Cleaning of cobwebs at high level and behind doors would be an easy improvement and I'm not sure the signs discouraging spitting were that necessary as it kind of suggested a more downmarket cliental....Read less.

The site is hard to find if it’s the first time visiting, postcodes are provided for sat nav use but not very good, other than that we really enjoyed our stay, the staff are very friendly and the site it’s self was very clean and tidy, we will definitely be going back and maybe even booking a cabin next year....Read less.

We stayed 2 nights in October. The pod was lovely and warm, had a double, a single and 2 single bunks above. There was also table and chairs, 2 electric ring hob, microwave, fridge so made it very easy. No water but going to fill our water carrierall part of the camping fun. Make sure you bring own sheets as well as sleeping bags and pillows.

The site was great with a new toilet block and play ground. Note the 'kampers kitchen' food outlet others have mentioned is closed outside of the main summer season....Read less.

Fantastic site, we were all mesmerised with the location, the woods, river, ducks, such a tranquil setting. The children aged 3 to 13 all loved it. Fab little park, lots to explore and smiley, friendly staff.

Only downsides were the access road needs a bit of work due to potholes which i appreciate will be costly. Also the area with the sited caravans didn't fit with the rest of the gorgeous site, the caravans and pitch areas looked a bit tired and rundown, not what im used to seeing when i see sited caravans on other sites.

However not to be deterred, we can't wait to return to this hidden gem....Read less.

We decided to visit at the very last minute so were thrilled when you had availability- the site is lovely and there was plenty of pitch space for our tents. Fab facilities, everything was clean and of a high standard (great showers) and the shop is very well stocked with anything you could need. We took the short walk into Holmfirth through the woods for the food festival which was great. The only other feedback I would give is it would be great if you allowed camp fires especially at this time of year- it got quite chilly sitting out without one!

A wonderful break- thank you!...Read less.

We chose this site as we wanted to see the Last of the Summer Wine TV series sites & the area.

We opted for the Top field with electric hookup for our campervan, the entrance would be a bit tight with a bigger van.

The facilities are good, the shop is well stocked and the staff are very friendly.

We do not have children, and did not utilise any on site entertainment, hence no rating.

There did not appear to be any on site security, hence no rating for that.

We did not use the laundry room, but the toiler & shower block is fine if a little tired. We discovered much newer facilities in another block on our last day which are lovely: hope the original ones will be upgraded in due course.

Holmfirth is a 20 minute walk along the road, or 30 minutes if you take the off road route (which is a bit steep & uneven in places, but good exercise).

All in all a pleasant stay despite the 2 wet days!...Read less.

Everything was ok but the actual cleanliness of the Glamping Cabin as it has not been cleaned before we arrived.

The shower had dirt inside

The floor was dirty

The whole place had cobwebs all over

The curtain was hanging off

I would stay again in the hope that the cleaning of the cabin was an oversight and not usual practice.

Many thanks

Adam

Had a really nice couple of days here; chose it for its nearness to Huddersfield where I was on a course. Loved the pond in the centre and thought the shop was excellent. Staff were so welcoming, friendly and helpful and my pitch was fine. Would have liked the one opposite, by the pond, known as ‘Bills Patch’ - will ask for it next time! The new toilet block is wonderful (although my shower push button lasted less than 5 seconds which was a bit of a pain). Thanks for a restful stay!...Read less.

Visited as a family with 3 generations of our family.

Booked the bottom field as we were told this was a family field but we soon discovered we have been allocated a pitch next to a very large party of woodsmoke enthusiasts.

It was very noisy on the first night and we phoned to complain , we spoke to a member of staff in the morning again but nothing was done.

Facilities are clean we booked a private bathroom which was massive , water pressure in the shower needs attention and it kept going cold which left me stood with shampoo on my head for around 5 mins while I waited for hot water to return.

The soap dispensers in the main toilets contained something which smelt a lot like bleach and left us with sore hands....Read less.

Great campsite. The toilet block is known as the 5* one in our family. We use the site when visiting our son at Huddersfield university. It is conveniently located and yet still allows us to access the surrounding area for walking etc....Read less.

The site is in a lovely location with easy access to bus route pub village and shop. Only downside for us the vans in the woods were very untidy and off putting in fact it reminded us of a site with travellers on it . The site could be made lovely if these people were made to tidy up there pitch. Also the trees were in need of lopping and pruning as it made the site very dull damp and dark . What a shame it needs some TLC it could be made into a fantastic site ....Read less.

We were looking for a site close to Huddersfield a our daughter is studying at Uni there, we just picked the closest site on the search engine we used and were very pleasantly surprised by the whole set up. A very tidy site with excellent clean facilities set in a beautiful valley location. the only issue was the lack of grey water disposal accessible for the Motorhome drain....Read less.

My wife and I have stayed at Holme Valley twice during the last 2 years. Being Caravan Club and CCC members we visit several sites in the UK each year and when at Holme Valley always acknowledge the wonderful valley setting and exemplary staff friendliness and helpfulness. However, the access ‘road’ is, to be kind, extremely rough and does not reflect the site’s quality although we acknowledge it may not be owned by the site. BUT, please prioritise investment to resurface the caravan/ motorhome hardstanding area and general site road surfaces which are unkemp and unmaintained and definitely does not reflect a top quality site which Holme Valley deserves and surely aspires to....Read less.

We have been camping at Holme Valley for years,we only live in Huddersfield but it’s a great place to relax and spend time on a great site with lovely surroundings.The staff are fantastic,the shop has everything you need and the on site food is a homemade treat.We go a few times a year and will continue to do so....Read less.

We spent a lovely weekend using the campsite and cabins with a group of family and friends. Our cabin was beautiful (a door curtain would make it even better) and cosy (although I did bump my head as I sat up in bed to feed my baby) and we can't wait to return to explore the surroundings more in (hopefully) better weather. Helpful staff and well stocked reasonably priced shop and food cabin. The children had a fantastic time....Read less.

I love this campsite! This was our second visit and stay in the cabins and they are perfect, great value for money, really neat and cosy and very well equipped. The kids loved running around the field, the food from the Kamping Kitchen was wonderful and the campsite staff are exceptionally helpful and friendly. Top marks!...Read less.

Really lovely place and facilities I will book again however I was really disappointed that I had booked a pitch close to toilets as I am pregnant and was emailed to confirm I would be close to toilets. Also when I arrived the girl verbally confirmed this however once I got my tent up and went to use the toilets the entire block was locked for the night. It's not the end of the world but it would have been nice to have been spoken to about it...Read less.

Stayed on the new field and amenities were close enough. Toilets and wash facilities were clean. Nice play area for children and children could play in front of the tent all evening. Nice and quiet at night....Read less.

Overall good. V popular, could probably do with restricting numbers more. Good facilities. Would recommend.

Couple of improvement suggestions. Need more bins and these need emptying more, many were full and surrounded with rubbish which wouldn’t fit. Limited enforcement of 930pm curfew for music which was disappointing as we had kids trying to sleep....Read less.

Had a fab weekend the pizza man was amazing but more bins for pizza boxes would be great .

We came with a dog an its great that you provide doggy doo bags if needed but proper dog waste bins would be good too as i am not fond of putting it in bins around where children go...Read less.

We stayed at Holme Valley as our final few days of 'away time' before the children went back to school. It was our fifth visit and the place just gets better and better! We love the woods, the pirate island, the river, the shop, the ducks and the relative seclusion of the top field!...Read less.

I decided to take my nephew camping for a few days, hes never camped before and worries about new places.

I googled camping in Huddersfield, didn’t really want to go too far incase he didn’t like it. Ive driven past this site many of times but didn’t really know what to expect as nothing can be seen from the roadside.

We arrived and staff were brilliant explaining facilities on site, walks around the area and pointing out everything needed on a map given on arrival.

My nephew loved the freedom and there were no worries about where the children went, the site was clean with nothing being too much for staff.

On leaving, my car wouldn’t start, I worried how id get off the site, the office staff however were wonderful, they came and bump started my car without a problem.

My only criticism would be activities on site. Through the summer holidays on certain days they offer bush craft, it would be nice and a benefit to have a few activities available on site. I appreciate this isn’t what the site offers but think it would not only pull in a little more money for the site but offer something extra for the kids to do.

Can’t wait to re book...Read less.

We are new to caravanning and have been to this site twice recently to practice towing. Both times I have needed help setting up or hitching up the van and both times the Park team have gone out of their way to help. The whole team are very friendly and the shop is well stocked. There is a hot food truck on site that has a wide menu and reasonably priced. The park is clean and very dog friendly, with plenty of walks close by. I would recommend a visit....Read less.

We visited for the second year running, with a large group of friends (families and couples). The site is perfect for us, really relaxing, and the staff are really helpful in ensuring we can all book to pitch together.

The children love the playground and river, and the freedom they have to play, as it feels such a friendly, safe environment.

The food from the cabin is wonderful.

The wash facilities are good, and the shop is really handy. Pub is easy to walk to, and the duck race in August is hugely fun!

We will certainly come again....Read less.

Great site - organised clean and friendly. Plenty to do within easy reach of the site. Excellent food available onsite which adds a little luxury to camping! Wouldn’t hesitate to re-book. Keep doing what you’re doing. Huge thumbs up....Read less.

This was our 2nd stay on this site,the staff are so helpful and friendly. It also has a licensed shop great for extra booze if needed. We stay pondside which is so tranquil, everything is easily accessible. We will definitely be going again. If i have one small negative its the road to access the site,its in need of tarmacking,but the rest is fantastic. 10 out of 10....Read less.

We only stayed for 3 nights but we really enjoyed our stay. The kids did the archery which was brill, fished, played on the rope swing and generally loved their stay. Loads of other kids to make friends with.

Facilities were great, exactly what we’d expect and the site was clean and well kept. Availability of food from Kampers Kitchen was great - great value and great quality. Plenty of choice too.

One issue was that the road behind our field was noisy BUT not something we would hold against the site. We’ll just go to the opposite side of the field next time.

Also a little noisy after 10:30 but it was Bank Holiday weekend and people were having a good time - just glad we weren’t next to them!

Overall, a great, family oriented site with plenty on offer. Thankyou.

First glamping experience in the willow glamping pod, I took my two boys and honestly can say I’ll be coming back time and time again, the staff were really helpful, the place was clean and the surrounding couldn’t be better, we didn’t want to come home. 10/10...Read less.

All in all we were extremely happy with our stay, 2 adults an 3 kids aged 9, 7 and 18 months, the campsite itself was brilliant and the kids were never bored, they especially loved the river, as there were other families on there they made friends quickly so always had someone to play with, the park is a great addition, and the toilet/shower blocks were lovely, the kampers kitchen wasnt open on everyday but when it was the food was lovely and it took the stress out of having to cook, although the on site shop was small it had everything you might need, my only criticism is there was a family staying in the caravan/motorhome section of the site with 3 or 4 dogs and for some reason thought it was acceptable to walk there dogs round our field letting the dogs crap where ever, i had to tell the girl walking the dogs to pick it up and on one occasion one of the dogs escaped the caravan and crapped right next to where we were sat outside our tent, the owner did come and pick it up, but we felt we could no longer let our 3 kids play and roll about outside our tent. On our final night a large large group turned up 3 or 4 women all with 2 or 3 kids each and 2 tents and they didnt just pitch up next to our tent but also in front of our tent, it was like they had put 2 tents in 1 pitch, it spoilt our last night a little as the kids were a bit troublesome, throwing stones at the ducks and dropping litter but we were determined to not let it spoil what had been a lovely 3 days stay, we will definately be coming back....Read less.

This is our second visit to this site. We find the staff here very accommodating and friendly. Although the site is large and busy on both our visits, it still feels spacious. There is a river running through which entertained children on the site. There was also a dog walk off road. Holmfirth is half hour walk away either by the river, which is steep in parts or along the road which is easy. The site was all quiet by 11pm on our visit even though it was busy. Apparently a warden walks around. We would definitely visit again

...Read less.

Friendly, relaxed place to stay. Clearly popular with families. My grandson enjoyed the archery taster session organised by park staff and the onsite camp food outlet ‘Kampers Kitchen’ served excellent, freshly prepared food at a reasonable price. I especially enjoyed the curry. I would recommend this site to families as well as older campers without children....Read less.

We were overall happy with experience at the campsite. We choose this site as it was the closest we could find to The Yorkshire Sculpture Park (less than 30 min drive) Between us we had 5 kids from 4 to 11 years old and they had a great time playing in the river behind our tent. Very shallow and easy to access behind our tent. Good drinking water and dish washing facilities. The new shower block was very clean, good toilets and sinks, however the showers (x3) themselves were all terrible (a scalding mist) Not sure if the old shower block near the shop would be better? Easy online booking and friendly staff at check in and shop....Read less.

The site is in the valley by the river with tall trees around the campsite field means the it fairly sheltered. The river does mean its prone to a few midges. The new toilet and wash block is excellent and the showers are very spacious and have a partition with a bench style seat in each cubical. The campsite shop is small but well stocked. Local shop and pub is only about 8 to 10 minutes walk away and easy to find.

The lane from main road to campsite is narrow and a bit bumpy but no problem if taken a the recommended 5 mph speed limit. All in all a pleasant site to stay at....Read less.

Check in staff very helpful and friendly, Shop staff was a different story, stood 20 min waiting to ask about walk, while staff happily talked between each other, then noticed I was there! Toilets where a mess and dirty. People walking on and over our pitch and kids riding bikes in between the vans. All in all not a very pleasant stay....Read less.

We stayed 3 nights in Holme Valley and we loved every minute of it. Park is neat and tidy. Cozy. Loved kids activities. Location is just beautiful.

The things we didn't like:

1. Shower and washing up facilities are on water saving plumbing and that's brilliant except for the fact that the timer is ridiculously short. Can't have a proper wash with water stopping every second.

2. Rules said no noise after 10.30pm. Which is a big seller for us. Yet this rule didn't seem to be enforced at all.

All in all we loved the campsite but it could be improved....Read less.

The park in general is excellent, the problem is the cost of camping and food cabin, even a cup of tea is overpriced, £18 per night to camp is greatly overpriced, I feel £15 per night is fair, we would have stopped longer if the price was fairer...Read less.

We’re still new to camping and the early morning shower queue is still something I’m learning to love. Holme Valley have this completely solved - for very reasonable cost we got private access to a sparklingly clean, enormous bathroom. Perfect with the kids. Pitch, catering and staff all also top notch. And perfectly located for the Yorkshire Sculpture Park which was great fun with the kids. We’ll definitely be back. I've already recommended it to friends!...Read less.

A very good site although the road leading to the site is terrible and needs new tarmac. The site itself is very good as we're the facilities but we were in the large field which was so noisy at night with children still running about at 10.30pm. We would go back but into a different field....Read less.

myself and my partner have been multiply times here and love the peaceful surroundings the relaxation we feel is priceless nothing is too much trouble the fact it isn't near a busy road and is set well away from traffic makes all the difference as everyone is more laid back and not worrying about children or dogs falling victim to the traffic. my only qualm is the food shack is always closed when we stay which isn't anything to with the owners but you really build up a thirst and appetite when setting up. A fabulous place to stay and the new cabins are asset....Read less.

It is a nice campsite but the only issue I had was the showers. They didn’t seem to get cleaned during my stay and the water pressure was abissmal (I know it’s being sorted within the year) so that’s something that to look forward to.

I stayed there to see last of the summer wine stuff but other than that there isn’t a great deal to do for free so it’s unlikely I’ll be staying in the area again.

The drive is very bumpy but luckily I was in a car! Dread to think what the camper vans go through...Read less.

Since my hudband and i found this caravan and camping park we made a vow we would come back at least once a year. The staff are always helpful. Can't do enough for you. The camp is spotless. Many activities and have an on-site food cabin. It has many attractions in holmsfirth where last of the summer wine was filmed. My husband is an avid folower of this series. The location has a river running by the side of your caravan. Fishing in the large pond with ducks roaming everywhere

Peaceful and tranquil....Read less.

What a lovely place to stay for the weekend. Off the main road, surrounded by trees,and nature. Staff not only friendly but helpful. Everything you need is on site with a great shop and great shower facilities. I have never been to a campsite with a fishing pond in the middle. This is our second visit to the campsite and we don't live that far away but when we are there we feel a million miles from home and totally chilled.x...Read less.

Campsite seemed to cater for all- families children and couples. Lovely site with private pitches and real feeling of being in the country. Great facilities on site, shop and cafe very handy. Only improvment could be more water points around the site for campers....Read less.

Lovely site close to home,, slightly more busy than we normally use but didn't feel too cramped. Play area in view from most pitches were we stayed. Camping field toilets and showers kept clean and look quite new, staff seen round the site all day cleaning and tidying up. Shop has lots of essentials at reasonable price. Area is beautiful and lots to explore. Added bonus of the stream for kids to play in....Read less.

We live holmefirth valley camping we come 2 time a year and will be back many more times love the kids can just wonder with safety, clean basic facilities and each field is different to meet everyone's needs I love the top field for its space and quietness....Read less.

We love this site as a get away just us. There isn't much to do entertainment wise provided by the park, but we make our own :) unfortunately on our last visit my partner was very disappointed by the state of the men's toilets and shower block. Usually they are clean and we have no complaints but the price of the stay is more than last time we stayed with the cleanliness level unfortunately dropping....Read less.

Lovely site. Friendly staff. Well stocked shop. Very impressed with new shower blocks. Great location. Walked into Holmfirth through woodland with our dog. Very steep in parts. Found more direct route on way back. Turns out if you walk out of the campsite onto main road & turn left it's a straight road for about 1.5 miles which takes you directly into Holmfirth village....Read less.

After paying extra for this service was very disappointed. Bath filled up with dirty/yellow water with bits floating in it (twice). Shower took ages to get temperature right, shower head blocked, low pressure and water didn't drain away from shower base....Read less.

Fantastic camp site, the kids love it when we come here!

The river is always a favourite to play in, but the children’s play area onsite although lovely is quite small and over run when the park is busy. The toilets and showers are really lovely albeit can struggle with water pressure again on busy days but we just learned to have showers at non busy times

Campers kitchen is an added bonus and the kids spent a lot of money on the waffles and icecream :-)

We only live in Huddersfield but come to holmevalley regularly because it feels like a holiday on our doorstep and it’s a really lovely run park! Thankyou for always making our stay so lovely and enjoyable...Read less.

Just to prove how special this place is, we only live 5 miles away so no need to travel any further. You would not believe that Huddersfield town centre is a good 40 minute walk away.

We stopped for the weekend is this lovely secluded spot. A small lake and a river that kids can paddle in (supervised of course). An on site shop, excellent shower and toilet facilities all make this a great place to stay. Large spacious fields and some glamping pods are available. We will definitely be going back soon....Read less.

I have been camping here since my children were small, it's about five miles from home but we could be anywhere in the country! We find it relaxing friendly. The shower blocks are lovely and the food shack is handy for a lazy meal x...Read less.

We often visit the camp site and only live 6 miles away in Huddersfueld! We have been coming for years now. The site is well kept and welcoming to campers. Our friends stayed in the new cabins which were brilliant. The shower power is abit lacking and we paid for a private bathroom, which was disappointing as the shower was non existent in terms of running water and we had to have a bath instead!...Read less.

The access road to site is basically a pot hole strewn dirt track and very steep, was very worried about damaging our car going down and then back up it. Site itself is very family orientated and has good facilities, not the quietest tho and no real enforcement of any rules, considering amount of money spent on new cabins, toilet/shower block puzzling that access road is so bad and hasn’t been seen too....Read less.

We recently stayed at Holme Valley C & C because we wanted to visit Holmfirth. We were disappointed with

this site because

1 Site access, narrow lane with many potholes, no passing place for Motorhomes.

2 toilet and showers not upto standard, shower went off after 3/4 seconds

3 Wardens never spoke, only the one booking us in. Couldn’t fault him.

4 Kids allowed to run riot from tenting area.

...Read less.

Access to the site is along a horrendously very narrow badly maintained bumpy road. We did a lot of exploring around the area and so we were up and down the access road a lot!!! There are a lot of long term campers on the site and also a few glamping pods. It was quite busy whilst we were there, to be expected in the schoool summer holidays! Sites are not demarcated very well…. The facilities were quiet clean and the staff seemed to work hard trying to keep the site clean and tidy. I find it annoying though when I have to remember a code number to get in the toilets!! The showers are a bind because you have to keep your finger on the button…. Television reception is quite good but there is no WiFi! We used the site as a base for walking around Holmefirth. Lots of families of ducks around the site that visit you in the morning with their children in tow asking for bread!! We also saw a heron by the pond. We don’t fish but plenty of people did around the pond for which I think there is an extra charge.

...Read less.

We only stayed for the one night, but my friend and I were more than happy. The staff were helpful and polite. The only disappointing thing was that there was no toilet paper at 7.30am! We both said we'd stay again....Read less.

Lovely place... loved the family bathroom facilities... very friendly staff... first time camping with dogs.. and were able to camp far away from other people which made it less stressful for us... definitely want to go back here when dogs are a bit more trained... Lots more we wanted to do and explore......Read less.

This is a great campsite especially for families. The park and facilities are well kept and it is in a great location. My only criticism would be that the track from the main road to the site is very rough and pot-holed. Combined with the fact it is quite steep can make it difficult if towing a caravan or trailer. Otherwise for me this is a 4/5 star campsite....Read less.

This is a little gem but needs some tic. The new shower block is lovely but the old one is DESPARATE for a refurb. Also it seems a lot of the tourers are seasonal, they need a good wash and the area tidying!!...Read less.

Lovely friendly staff, great for families. Little stream to play in.

Toilet facilities surprisingly clean which was a bonus.

We visited on a Monday and the little cafe wasn’t open which was a shame.

I liked that I could book online.

...Read less.

Very good campsite very impressed and will be returning . Only criticism i have is the entrance road is very uneven and could do with some repairs as hole after hole all the way down to reception from the road...Read less.

We stayed at Holmes valley campsite many years ago when it was just the 2 fields for tents, with the shop and toilets and laundrette, we have seen it grow and facilities improve but they have not lost the family oriented atmosphere as most sites do with commercialising. We return at least a couple of times each year as its quiet and family oriented, great for relaxing or fishing and great base for lovely walks or site seeing. We have returned with our grandchildren as its very safe and secure and the children absolutely love it, our recent stay we took our 2 eight year olds and a 2 year old who had never been before, now everytime we see him he holds our hand and shouts CAMPING, really recommend the site and we tell everyone about it ....Read less.

We stayed recently for a family weekend , site is lovely and great for kids ,busy but we are in school holidays ,the facilities are amazing always clean , setting lovely ,had some nice walks in the woodland .

Staff friendly and helpful ...a group of three families were pitching at the same time when we arrived , a little too close for comfort ,the staff recognised this the following day and asked us we were happy / comfortable, which to be fair we were only staying one more night so we said it was fine , which if we were staying longer the staff I’m sure would have moved us or them to make it more comfortable. Would definitely recommend and would stay again ,it was busier than the sites we usually stay at but it’s expected in school holidays . Our kids loved it and made a few friends in the short time in which we there ....Read less.

The road up to the caravan site is not the best, very bumpy, but the pitch we had could not be bettered, overlooking the lake, I think it was amazing, very relaxing and tranquil. As it was summer it was as expected very busy and very full, a very busy site indeed. The lake was used by the families there for fishing, so this was a very popular pastime, however some of the families did not take notice of where the pegs were to fish, so they settled outside our caravan inches away from the front window, couldn't open the door or windows and in the end closed the blinds, I rang the office and a very helpful man came and asked them to move as they could not fish near the caravans, they did eventually move, without a problem. I loved the setting and enjoyed staying there, we would possibly come back but probably when it is a lot quieter, the food bar served lovely food and drinks, and was a great idea as it was very popular. Whilst in the ladies toilet block getting ready to go out one evening a man walked out of the showers which when I said what are you doing, this is the ladies, he just said yeah I know and walked out, which I didn't expect. The site is very clean and kept so tidy, even though the site was full, lovely quiet location, the staff must work so hard to keep the site looking so lovely....Read less.

This was only my second stay in my mini camper and my grandsons’ first. They loved it here, made friends, played in the stream, played football, slept very soundly and had all round fun. Setting is lovely, shop well stocked, owners charming and helpful, shower and toilet facilities great. Thanks for a lovely stay....Read less.

Access road is very tight. Showers in new block not working properly. Site shop doesn't open until 9am. Cars parked randomly around site, including pitch I was meant to be in. No Motorhome service point on site map, not sure if it has one or not....Read less.

Our pitch was lovely shaded and by a stream. We had a puncture on the morning we should have left which we couldn't get fixed until after lunch - members of staff with radios ensured that no arriving outfits entered the one way access until we had cleared. Couldn't thank them enough....Read less.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The site is quiet but spacious and the kids enjoyed playing in the stream and field. It was also great to walk to different places from the site. The site and facilities we’re clean and tidy, staff were friendly and helpful. We went midweek so no onsite entertainment but I think that happens at the weekend. We will definitely return and wish we could’ve stayed longer....Read less.

I booked this site for 6 campervans, the visit went really well, the staff were very helpful, however there was a few issues which were very quickly resolved, but the information was not passed on to the other staff, who kept ringing me for with queries, which I kept explaining only for someone else to ring asking the same questions....Read less.

We enjoyed our stay except for one aspect: late night noise. The site facilities are good and clean, the shop is not a rip off which was great. The kampers kitchen was great and we ate there 3x on our weekend away. The only problem was that there were a number of large groups who were up late meaning loud music and drunken laughter until 2am on Saturday and 3am on Sunday. There was no one around to enforce any of the rules which made for a free for all. The rules are strict and lead you to believe it will be a peaceful site, perfect for relaxation but this was not the case. Some security needs to be employed, you could put up the price a bit to pay for it as pitches are very reasonable (cheapest I’ve stayed at for a long time)....Read less.

The campsite is well kept and the camping pitches are ample in size. Fishing lake was good for the children and the Kampers Kitchen was great food and good value for money.

The site is let down by the lack on a night warden. Both nights of our stay were spoiled by large groups partying until the early hours (Friday night 1am and Saturday night 3am). It states no music after 9.30 and i thing no noise after 10.30. These rules were not once enforced.

Other than the lack of a night warden the site in nice...Read less.

On booking I rang holme valley to add a tent pitch the lady was more than helpful putting our pitches as close together as possible, the staff are very friendly and the toilets and showers were very clean and even though the site was very busy they were still very clean, and the ladies bringing new arrivals to there pitch each time asking if everything is okay and a great weekend had by all on the site no hard rush to leave on departure which was also a nice gesture I had ago on the fishing pond and caught quite a few nothing massive but still pleasant. Will be returning....Read less.

We stayed in the glamping pods on the top field. The pod was clean, cool, comfortable and even better than I'd imagined. It was also very nice to look at! All basic cooking equipment was provided, so we had all we needed for simple self-catering. The bunks were comfortable. Everything felt new and unused! We'd love to come back one day....Read less.

A beautifully clean park with helpful friendly staff. The washrooms were pristine and spacious but the timer on the showers meant trying to wash with one hand permanently pressing the button. Our pitch was ideal but we found the number of people fishing right next to and walking through our pitch a little disturbing. We were also unhappy about them smoking constantly while so close to us.

The main problem we found was the awful state of the access road.

Despite this the camp was good value for money and an excellent family site....Read less.

We had stayed at Holmevalley before camping in the main field and we were amazed at the toilet and shower facilities as they are new and kept clean throughout the day. The staff are very helpful from the moment you arrive to when you leave. This time we stayed in the glamping pod next to the pond for our anniversary and were very pleased with the stay. Again, friendly staff, clean site and although it was busy it also seemed quiet around the pond that was nice as we sat out. Would definitely recommend to everyone...Read less.

We stayed as part of a party of 6 tents. 12 adults, 7 children and 3 dogs.

The children absolutely loved it! They had so much space to play and they all really enjoyed the playground. They absolutely loved paddling in the stream as did the dogs and some adults!

They also enjoyed watching the ducks and feeding them!

We hired a family bathroom, after the hiccup we had when getting the key was sorted. The bathroom was great, so clean and came in handy with the children. They loved having a bath after paddling in the stream!

Everything was so simple from booking, checking in and leaving again!

The only downside we had was we were pitched in number 5 in the bottom field and there was an almighty ditch! It could really do with filling in as it’s not great for tents! (Luckily we didn’t need the one sleeping pod so turned the tent so that pod was in the ditch) that’s the only picky thing we could fault.

Thank you so so much! We’re already looking at coming back early September, this time with fishing tackle!

Would recommend to everyone!...Read less.

Went glamping! Stayed in the cabins with family and friends and dogs (aged from 3 to 76) Perfect location. Site and amenities clean. Cabins ideal for a base, everything that you need for a weekend away. Definitely going again....Read less.

So impressed with the cleanliness of the toilets and showers. Saw cleaners in there both mornings and never found them dirty. Best toilet facilities for a camp site I have seen. Didnt eat at kampers kitchen however was always busy and looked great. A nice option to eat there too. Shop was well stocked. Loveky site and not far from. Holmfirth village. Kids play area well kept and sturdy play equipment. Security was good as liked the codes on the toilet and shower area. Will definitely recommend and return...Read less.

Lovely place to stay, my daughter enjoyed the outdoor play area .The washing/toilet facilities are very clean and modern.

Good On site kitchen with plenty of choice but slightly of the expensive side.

Not much in the surrounding area other than small village with a pub.

I would stay again for a nice quiet break....Read less.

We have never been camping before as a family ( 2 adults and 1 three year old) and were fairly apprehensive. We needn't have worried, the campsite was great, fab facilities kept clean in a very picturesque part of the UK. It was very family orientated with lots of children playing together which was lovely to see. Supermarkets and small town are a couple of miles down the road so everything is on your doorstep.

Great for a couple of days away to relax and enjoy the outdoors....Read less.

We arrived a day early.....11pm

We parked up safely for the night and received a warm welcome in the morning by friendly staff who were more than happy we paid for the extra night with money taken off for the electric hook up.

We were told that our pitch would be ready at midday but was clerked in and given access codes to facilities. We were told we could park up safely till our pitch became available.To start our long weekend break,After having fresh coffee and freshening up in the new facilities block (lovely and well maintained) we was given advise on where to eat breakfast and ventured off to the huntsman pub/hotel.

The staff were great and the chef kept the kitchen open for us to have a hearty Yorkshire breakfast.

After breakfast we stocked up on groceries 5 minutes drive from the campsite at midday we returned and set up for our mini break.

Our pitch was on the hedge of the duck pond with plenty of room for our moterhome and awning with more space for the BBQ and sun loungers without encroaching our neighbours.

We were greeted morning and night by the ducks and ducklings who befriended us and our two staffies.

All campers respected each other, children played in the new field camping area and not to noisy very quiet at night.

We didn’t need to use the cafe facilities, we are self surficient having our moterhome. it looked small,serving snacks etc. Looked ideal for families.

we either went out for meals or had family and friends round.

The local area is full of country pubs, restaurants. I would like to see in the future the park open a bigger bar/ restaurant.

Overall I’m really pleased we stayed in this wonderful site.

We look forward to seeing you soon.

Thank you 😊...Read less.

We did not venture from site as weather was excellent, paddling in river and play park + huge field for children to play in. Very happy with the site, clean and well managed, only down side's I can think of is the children's play area is over a track to the top field (but everyone drives slow) and the track off the main road, but again driving slow makes it ok....Read less.

Working in the area Monday to Friday on the other side of Huddersfield.

Used TomTom to try to find site on my first night but ended up using sat nav on phone as TomTom taking me to the other side of the campsite.

Toilet block spotless and area for washing dishes close to shower block so everything very close to your pitch.

(seen another review with a comment about having to keep turning the shower on but its not a problem, been on other site with old toilet block with hardly any lights, cold water and no water when it freezes ?)

Bought a few things out of the shop as it not over priced.

Duck pond in the middle of the site.

Campsite is so good that even the locals use it, one couple live 5 miles from the site

...Read less.

Site in good location. Pitches ok but a little short of grass in places and some of the bald areas were quite uneven probably due to the awful weather earlier in the year. Showers ok but water far too hot and couldn't be turned down to a more reasonable temperature. Shower heads also needed attention as spray going everywhere. But on the whole a good site....Read less.

We have stayed here for the past 4 years and it just gets better and better with every stay. The site changes each time we visit giving extra touches each time. The shower/toilets are immaculate/clean.

We love this place!!...Read less.

We have stayed at the park lots of times in our motor home. Always find it a quiet and relaxing place. The facilities and shop are more then adequate and The staff friendly and helpful. There is just one thing that could be improved. The lane leading down to the camp site from the main road is a bit rough and not in very good condition....Read less.

Me and hubby Stayed here for 2 nights camping in our tent with two 17 year olds ! We stayed on plot No 4 by the river and it was gorgeous. Unfortunately our tent got ruined due to all the bird muck as we were below trees !!!! We won’t stay on that plot again but we will return to the campsite...Read less.

My daughter and myself have been coming here for the last few years. Even though we only live 20 mins away. We feel safe here as its just is. Plenty of things for her to explore and play. Shop is very reasonable with a good selection of items. And Holmfirth is not far to walk to, weather by through the woods or on the road. 10/10. See you very soon. Carla and Olivia....Read less.

We loved our stay at Holme Valley and would highly recommend it - it's safe, secure and brilliant for young families! We especially loved the warm welcome and delicious food served up by Freda in Kamper's Kitchen!...Read less.

The only fault I could find would be that you have to shower with one hand!! Due to the few second cut out on the duration of allowed water. Beautifully clean, but impossible to have a comfortable shower....Read less.

Having been visiting with a Motor home for a number of years, we decided to treat grandson and partner to a few days in the new camping chalets.

Wonderful and spacious with outstanding views.

They can't wait to go back...Read less.

I booked this campsite for its convenient location and the fact it had a children's playground and toilet block.

We had lots of fun. The staff were very welcoming and helpful with knowledge of the local area and help onsite. We needed to blow our airbed up and they were very accommodating. Great place to stay....Read less.

Lovely site in a good location close to Holmfirth with a regular bus service into Huddersfield . Plenty going on around and about the area. Kampers kitchen on site has a really good menu of freshly cooked meals at a very reasonable cost. Site is well maintained and clean. Pond for fishing is great for families and is home to a number of very cute ducklings. Staff are very helpful and friendly. Thanks I will be back ....Read less.

Stayed saturday to monday camping in the bottom field. Stayed before so knew what to expect. Its a lovely quiet site here with superb facilities. The prices are reasonable at 21 pounds per night with electric. Just a short ride from holmfirth or huddersfield. Lovely lake to fish on. Camping by the river is lovely. Its very peaceful but there is a main road you can hear. Did not see any wardens or security which i find strange although all was quiet. Busy on the saturday night meant sunday morning the rubbish area was overflowing but that was soon cleared up right away which i found excellent. No hot water for the pot wash due to boiler issues but easily solved by boiling some water to wash our dishes. Would be nice to see wardens now and again just to feel more secure. However not a negative point. The place is a little gold mine and although it was busy on saturday it was not cramped or overcrowded. Loving the outdoor food area kampers kitchen. Really makes a difference with delicious food if you cant be bothered to cook. Only there at weekends as far as i noticed but even did breakfast and open til late. Very good and will return as only 20 mins from home but feels like youre in the middle of nowhere....Read less.

Friendly helpful staff and quite a well stocked shop except they had run out of gas in the size I needed.Had been very busy the week prior to my visit and I felt that more care could have been made to ensure that all the facilities were up to the mark ( ie not just for their busiest weeks.) For example there was no hot water at my nearest pot wash- awaiting boiler fixing. I also felt that the toilet/sinks/ shower areas needed a really good clean. There was a large noisy all male group camping on two of the three nights that I stayed and the staff did intervene several times to ensure that they didn't disturb others but not to any great effect unfortunately and there were more people in their group than the rest of us in that field who were there for a bit of peace and quiet....Read less.

We stayed over half term with two children (12 & 9), we all loved it! The weather was lovely and we even went paddling in the river. The site has everthing you need, even a Co-Op a short walk away for breakfast goodies! We are all looking forward to our next visit. Thank you!...Read less.

Ultra quiet area is a myth. Overlooked by houses and the grass was at least a foot tall. Very muddy and dark as surrounded by trees and houses. No way 5 pitches could sit there comfortably. Didnt even bother to get out of the car just went home. Could be great for families but sorry mot good for a couples getaway in the countryside and definitely not a 10 minute walk into town more like 50 minutes along a main road....Read less.

We were amazed at the beauty of this lovely place. The staff member on arrival was lovely and helpful and very patient with us(as we are still quite novices to caravaning !). She called another staff member back from his lunch to help us out with a problem that we had,he was only too happy to help and wasn't the least bit bothered that he'd had his lunch cut short(or at least didn't show it-we felt guilty!). We booked another stay whilst we were there....Read less.

All staff are fantasticthe play area is brilliant for the children to play on my children love it the new toilet facilities are great and with the new key pads we can see the numbers clearly when putting the code in when we went this time we seen the newglamping accommodation we'll try them when i can't camp in a tent anymore they look amazing overall this is the best camping site i have ever been to the sights and sourrounding areas are amazing...Read less.

Lovely campsite let down by simple things, bins in bottom field not emptied often enough, staring at piles of bin bags most of the time, rough arse family swearing out loud constantly, making excessive noise and generally being a nuisance with "security" (never saw any) doing absolutely nothing about it. Won't be visiting again unless they start charging per person rather than per tent, we prefer using two small tent's for ease of use on a weekend camp but we're forced to bring out 10 berth Outwell Norfolk lake which covered six times more space because it was cheaper than two Khyam igloos....Read less.

We stayed at this site over the Spring Bank Holiday. We stayed in a caravan and i think we were lucky with our location around the peaceful lake. There were a lot of tents on the site and I would have hated to think i was rammed in amongst them. Access to the site is down a narrow single track lane and very bumpy, not the best access for caravans to be honest. It would be a nightmare if 2 caravans met each other on the lane. Otherwise the campsite is nice, well positioned with an easy walk into Holmfirth (approx 30-40mins). The staff are friendly and there is a convenient shop on the site. One of the toilet blocks is a little tired but otherwise clean. All in all a good site. There is also a camping kitchen that serves food. I can't recommend this at all. Very un-organised staff. We called for a bacon sandwich one morning and we were waiting about 40mins after placing our order and they wasn't even a queue when we got there. An absolute sham to be honest. If thats the best they can offer, they should shut the kitchen....Read less.

We booked this site for a family getaway with our friends too. The site is beautiful and a short walk into lovely Holmfirth.

At looking at the photographs, write up and reviews online we agreed this was just right for us all.

When we arrived we noticed how hemmed in we were and the children hadn't much room to play as they were tents in all around us very close.

The toilets weren't cleaned regularly. One morning we found sick in one of the sinks and it still wasn't cleaned up two hours later shocking!

We approached the owners about our complaints only to find them rude and argumentative and defensive at all we mentioned. Not once did i feel reassured or confident in their customer service. I really think they were just after fitting as many people in as they could and getting the money!!...Read less.

We Really enjoyed our camping trip to Holme Valley campsite

The park and surrounding area are beautiful

Nice walk into Holmfirth through woods approximately 20 minutes

Lots of nice walks to be had and everywhere dog friendly

Will definitely be returning

...Read less.

We had a fantastic time camping here! The park was really clean and well maintained. Staff were very friendly. Felt safe enough for children to wander around freely. We will be returning for another fun camping adventure!...Read less.

My daughter and I booked an overnight visit to Holme valley for a half term activity. Booking online was easy, costs very reasonable and communication was good. Unfortunately, our visit was short but sweet - our inflatable pole tent had a slow puncture and collapsed before our eyes........but not until we’d followed the route along the river, which was on a very useful hand out, given to us on arrival, the children had been on the lovely little play park - which was easily visible from the tent - and we had had our bbq! All very positive and fun activities.......and the rain stopped for most of this! My only negative comments would be that the children could not use the loo on their own as they were not able to reach the key code pad, and we were over half an hour late setting up as the family who were on our booked pitch hadn’t started packing up! Despite all this, the tent is now being repaired and we look forward to returning to this lovely camp site..........Read less.

Had a lovely 2 night stay here. 1st visit. Would definitely return again. New toilet block very good apart from in the ladies 1 of the toilets was leaking clean water, which then ran into next one. Also needed cleaning more...Read less.

I found the site very hilly we stayed on the top field . Found sleeping very difficult as we were on a hill . I think you need to get a digger in and tear the field it wouldn't cost much and you would have happier campers. During our 2 day stay there were loads of unhappy campers who said they wouldn't be returning in a hurry.

It would seem the camping / caravan club arnt too fussy who they recommend....Read less.

Stayed here over the bank holiday. We were in the new field which was next to the river and quite a busy road.

Good points:

- the kampers kitchen was handy, the food was good and the service was very friendly.

- good meal at Uno in Honely

- nice walk into Holmfirth

Bad points:

- There was a lot of noise from the road and on the Saturday night, someone drove past and shouted "f*&k off you c*#ts!"

- people ignored the rules about noise and fires every night we were there and I never saw a warden

- only three showers which meant long queues and the water only stays on for 8 seconds between each push of the button.

- very noisy neighbours who had too much to drink and started shouting and swearing at each other. Again, no warden around to help

- kids sat round park at night swearing at tops of their voices and spitting.

We wouldn't return to this site as it seemed to be popular with people who just wanted to get drunk and didn't know where their kids were....Read less.

I loved this place. The only problem was the showers. That push button was ridiculous. Otherwise the shower blocks where lovely. Secondly noone was on site to keep people's noise down. As this went on till gone 12. Alsi needs to have gates as around 1pm teo vans drove on to site woke alot of us up. Parked up after getting in amd out. Then was gone first thing. Obviously hadn't paid for their pitch. Gates are there juat not closed at night....Read less.

To begin with the camping fields were so overbooked we had tents and cars pitched and parked right outside our tent there were tents crammed in right around the edge of the field then 2 rows of tents pitched from the middle leaving no room for children to play . There were smokers leaving day ends all over the field. Along with dog sick and litter. Music and screaming going on till after midnight. No security what so ever!.

Then there was no hot water to wash up along with 2 small and badly constructed wash areas to serve a field with 30 + tents!

The ladies toilets were disgusting most of the time one time there was sick in the sink all morning and poo all over the toilet seats. Smears of something up shower walls. When these conditions were raised with the owner is reception. She was rude, unhelpful. She said "oh no we don't clean the toilets in the morning our staff don't click on until 10am. If you don't like the facilities walk to another one" she actually made one of party cry she was very rude. Clearly not bothered about customer service.

We will never return to this park.

...Read less.

The staff were OTT with their willingness to help and advise. They rang up the local pub to see if they were serving food (Bank Hol Monday) and they were always welcoming with a smile.

The 'Pods' we stayed in were clean, modern, comfy and quite simply brilliant. The noise levels were just right and my 2 year old; 10 year old and 15 year old really bonded and had quite simply an awesome mini break. I was soooo impressed that I re booked before leaving.

Hats off to you all - quite simply ran by beautiful people FOR families....Read less.

We've visited twice, the first time we stayed on the big field (with the park) it was OK, just a bit noisy being full. The second we were in the smaller field with the camping pods, our friends booked a pod and we were able to pitch up next to them which was great. Staff are very friendly and helpful, the Campers Kitchen cafe is really, really good. Lovely food, freshly prepared with a good selection of healthier dishes rather than just burgers etc. The facilties are fine, nice little shop and plenty for the kids to do, on the park and with regular events and activities....Read less.

Top block near the shop is dated and very old and facilities are not clean. Showers didn’t work.

Bottom block modern and clean but too little showers for size of park. Long waits to use. Also water pressure was poor and after waiting 30mins, water was a trickle and could not wash hair.

Facilities not cleaned or checked frequent enough. Vomit in sink one day; dirty toilets ; no toilet paper; dirty floors etc......Read less.

We arrived on a Sunday and had to wait for a place as lots of people were still packing up but it didn't t matter as we were able to have a super bacon sandwich from Kamper's kitchen and sat in the sun on a picnic bench enjoying it. We had a lovely riverside pitch which was so quiet. The newer toilets and showers are lovely, the area around the older showers and pot wash looked a bit scruffy and needed a good clean but the site had been really busy at the weekend. We walked to the Rock Inn in Brockholes and then further down the road to the Travellers. We got good directions for a wooded walk into Holmfirth and had a good day there walking back via the main road and getting shopping on the way. It's a lovely site ....Read less.

A fantastic weekend of glamping. The pods are lovely and Holme Valley have thought of everything. It’s a shame their aren’t any pictures of the inside of the pods on the website as they really are beautiful. The site facilities are great and the children loved the playground and playing pooh sticks on the bridge over the river.

A great time was had by all, made even better with the lovely weather....Read less.

Stayed here several times and always enjoyed our stay on the big flat field, lovely friendly staff great atmosphere. One thing I would suggest is to have on site bags ice to purchase which would be perfect.. Defo coming back soon.....Read less.

I recently stayed here for a 2 night break with my daughter. Our stay could not have been any better. The staff were particularly helpful, the facilities were superb and the food from Kampers Kitchen was home cooked, delicious and excellent value for money. I will definitely return....Read less.

Pods are lovely. Only suggestions are to put a blind over the door and a small mirror so can get ready in the pod as old washroom have a plug socket after shower but no hair dryers and new washrooms have dryers but no plug socket for a straighter so had to visit both to get ready.

Plenty plates etc in pod and lots of room.

Door handle on oak was very stiff.

New play area was great and kids loved the ducks. The old play area was covered in moss so unable to play there....Read less.

Lovely clean site friendly staff with good security plenty to do for children nice and peaceful great for family’s couples dog friendly had a lovely experience will defently be returning and recommend this lovely site...Read less.

The pitch by the river was a little awkward to get to, down a slope and under the trees, this was explained when we booked but I was a bit disappointed with it. It made unloading the car difficult. Also we had a brand new tent and ended up with bird poo all over it. Not the sites fault I admit but a bit annoying all the same...Read less.

Stayed here for the Holmfirth Folk Festival 2018. Great site, with lovely clean facilities, very friendly and helpful staff . There was even a 10% discount for us Morris Dancers as well as a complimentary shuttle bus to and from the camp site. Onsite food provider was the icing on the cake. Will be back !...Read less.

We love coming to this park! We especially visit when events are taking place in Holmfirth or Huddersfield, like the food and drink weekends, arts week and the folk festival. Bus links are very good. The walk through the woods into Holmfirth is lovely at any time of the year. We love the contrast of hustle and bustle in town and then the peace and quiet of the park. I can sit by the lake for hours watching the ducks, chicks and ....the heron! Then at night time, those majestic trees with the owls. Whats not to like ? Many thanks to everyone working and living at the park....Read less.

A delightful site nestled in a valley on the banks of the river Holme with lots of wildlife. Toilets and showers were spotless, the washing up sinks had plentiful hot water and there was a laundry room and shop too. There is food on site at weekends from May to September and this was reasonably priced and delicious, with a varied choice. There are delightful riverside walks from the site and a bus stop near the entrance makes it easy to go further afield. Definitely worth a visit!...Read less.

A well cared for site in a great location, close to Holmfirth. The facilities are excellent - the toilet block is a very high standard and well maintained; well stocked shop; small food outlet selling drinks, snacks and hot food. I was very impressed, thank you 😊...Read less.

The quality of the facilities were over and beyond my expectations. The park was very chilled and on site food cabin was fresh and tasty.

The track into the park was very uncomfortable and there were lots of holes. Also due to traffic stopping out side of the reception to check in it was difficult to enter the park. I would recommend a bigger area to park while checking in.

Overall it was a superb stay and we would definitely recommend!...Read less.

Great site. Kids made lots of friends and were able to ride their bikes so they were happy and so were we. We were very impressed with the appearance and cleanliness of the toilet and shower block. Every time we used them they were either being cleaned or had just been cleaned so that reassured us that the facilities were being looked after even on a busy bank holiday weekend. The on site shop was really handy and reasonably priced. Information point in shop really useful and the two suggested walks (Riverside and to the cider farm cafe) were perfect traffic free walks with the kids. Will definitely return some day soon!...Read less.

Having packed up the car for the weekend with all of the gear and drove to Holmsfirth from Derbyshire we arrived around 2.30pm to find a teeming campsite with absolutely no space left for us to pitch up. We had already paid online reading all about the lovely small and quiet campsite - we could not believe our eyes! We were directed by the reception staff (who were lovely and this review is in no way a reflection of the staff, who were polite , friendly and welcoming) and when we drove into the field it was literally tent to tent, massively over-crowded, not a chance we could have squeezed our tent in let alone park in there too. Kids were running around everywhere, dogs off leads, absolutely no organisation with parking and pitching whatsoever - a complete free for all. I’m not sure if this was because of the loose layout, or that others hadn’t been mindful, or just simple over booking but something needs to change at this site if it is popular. We miserably drove all the way back home and gave it up as a bad job. I’m just so glad we didn’t have kids because they would have been utterly disappointed. If you are going to advertise a small quiet campsite, you must deliver on this. If we wanted Glastonbury we would have booked Glastonbury. Sorry, we won’t be back to try again....Read less.

We arrived in the evening for one night’s stay before having to return our hired motorhome nearby the next day. There was no one around to check us in but after a quick phone call the lovely Ben was with us within minutes and gave us a warm welcome. We were accommodated at the side of the lake on a hard standing pitch near the shop. There was a nice view in the morning, although our neighbours were a little loud in the evening. The next day we were allowed to move our van to a sunnier and quieter pitch in one of the fields, and spend an extra few hours relaxing in the sunshine at no extra charge.

The older toilet and shower facilities are very tired but I believe the new block is much nicer. If we came back we would book a pitch on the field next to the new facilities.

The staff here are very friendly and accommodating and there is a relaxed family feel to the site. There were quite a lot of children running and cycling about with little supervision, but I guess that’s what the freedom of camping is all about. All in all, an attractive site with fabulous staff and great value for money....Read less.

We had a fantastic time @HolmeValley.

Really friendly staff from booking through to leaving, nice size pitches, noise was controlled well, great stream for kids to play in and also play area. Gorgeous food from the Kampers Kitchen. Toilet and shower block new and clean. Very open site due to stream and woodland but fantastic for older kids

Will definitely be back....Read less.

The site was selected purely on it's close proximity to holmfirth as we'd got tickets for a gig there. As it was bank holiday weekend all electric pitches were gone so took the non electric. On arrival we were told to just park our motorhome anywhere in the middle of the bottom field which we did but on our return from a walk later in the day, other campervans had parked within a few feet of us. I'm sure there's a minimum acceptable distance, it certainly felt quite intrusive especially when wanting to sit outside. The toilet and shower block were clean but not enough cubicles when site is full. I had to queue for 20 minutes to get in the shower and then there was only a trickle of water so took ages to rinse off the shampoo. The shop was well stocked with a good selection of produce and at very reasonable prices. Staff extremely pleasant and helpful. I would return but perhaps during quieter periods....Read less.

We stayed over the recent bank holiday weekend. The site was busy but lots of space for everyone. The site is really well set out and the facilities are great, especially the shower block and family bathrooms. The on-site catering was really good and offered a good range of food throughout the day. The staff were really friendly and helpful. The addition of the camping pods add another dimension and something we would definitely investigate for our next visit. Great site, great staff can’t wait to go back....Read less.
