This site was absolutely fantastic, couldn’t do enough for us
Facilities were really nice and clean
We will be camping here again
James and Kim, the owners, were really welcoming and borrowed us a splitter for the electric which was just the job as we were able to camp near the toilets for the young children. I’d go as far to say they're amazing and also the views are to die for
10 out of 10 for the owners and site xx

Having read previous reviews I was quietly confident that this site would live up to my very minimal standard of requirements. All I would say is that I am glad I was only staying one night.
On arrival, my husband and I were looking around for the site and site owners. We were approached by another camper to say that we were at the right place and the owners were away on holiday.
The site is on a slope and I was so grateful that we had levellers for the motorhome or we would have been in a little bit of a mess.
The facilities are in a porta cabin like structure. Though clean, they are very basic. On a plus note, the views are excellent!

Our stay at the site was great. We camped with 2 tents and a touring caravan. We also took cycles for a ride around the reservoir which was really nice (and a little steep depending on the paths you take)
The site is on a hill so wheel chocks are advised if you are using a caravan/camper.
There is a toilet/shower block with lovely hot water. Cleaning products are available in the block and polite reminders to keep the blocks clean are displayed.
Plenty of space to play outdoor games etc.
As a family we have 3 dogs between us.
Although dogs are allowed, they are required to be kept on a lead/tied up.
This wasn’t a problem for us.
I would recommend the campsite to anyone wanting to stay around langsett.
I’ve rated the site 10/10 all round as it was perfect for us, but please note that if you need to take pushchairs/wheelchairs, the site is at the top of a very steep hill.

The campsite offers grass only pitches for motorhomes, caravans and tents. The view is stunning and overlooks two resevoirs and countryside.
The shower block is basic and 'portacabin' like, however it is clean and lots of hot water. I loved this site as it was natural, quiet, wonderful location and provided all we needed for our Motorhome.
There is lovely open space for sitting outside or children to play in the field. We visited both the nearby pub and cafe and had excellent food and drinks.
The walk around the reservoir was very enjoyable, although part of it is not suitable for older, less mobile people if you walk fully around.
I would definitely return.

For the price we paid it was acceptable but during this covid outbreak I don't think the site should be operating
The toilets and shower cubicle was not strict enough there was cleaning clothes in there and bits of spray, no hand wash and a notice for campers to clean up after themselves which I don't mind doing but I'm not going to clean up after someone else. a bucket of dirty water and mop was left in there to do the floor, no bleach and only one sink in one side worked, so if you used the other toilet there wasn't anywhere to wash your hands. water was cold and the pot washing sink was cold too.
We didn't see any owners or staff at all I just think that at this moment in time it should have been more hygienically monitored.

This 5 van site is just outside Penistone, with spectacular views over Langsett Reservoir and surrounding moorland. The facilities are fairly clean but pretty basic - there’s four loos in a portacabin, two of which have showers; a dozen or so hook ups;
Elsan point; and a pot wash in a sink behind the loos - but it’s open to the elements. Parts of the site are sloping, though we had no problem getting level with a chock.
There’s a pub that does food ten minutes walk down the road in Lamgsett, and opposite the pub is Bank View Cafe. The scenery is fabulous and the local walks are just lovely.
It’s £15 per night, the owner responds quickly and helpfully to any queries, and access is easy from either the A616 or A628. We’ll definitely be back!

Me and my Partner visited the site as a last minute booking during the bank holiday weekend as we found ourselves child free.
The telephone call to the owner was pleasant, who gave me directions and instructions once we got on site. I booked an Electric hook up as we were testing out all of our new camping gear so at £30 for the 2 nights during the bank holiday I didn't think that was too bad. At first.
I asked the owner if there were a toilet block, showers and pot washing facilities to which the owner said yes to all.
When we arrived on site I was amazed by the views around us. They were breath taking for someone who can appreciate the scenery. However (and here is where I feel I need to be honest) I was greatly disappointed by the actual facilities.
There was a very old looking porta-cabin which hosted 2 toilets, 1 shower and 1 sink. There were no pot washing facilities at all. I later found out I was supposed to wash my pots in the tiny hand basin within the porta-cabin. Not ideal when dealing with bits of food and then later on brushing your teeth in the same sink.
The porta-cabin was not the safest of construction as the floor had rotten in at the entrance which lead to me nearly breaking an ankle each time I visited the loo. For this reason I have given the facilities only 4 stars as I can book for Park resorts, get entertainment and excellent showering blocks/facilities for less money per night.
Plus side the shower was working and the water was hot.
I did fear that more tents would turn up and then it would be a free for all to use the one and only shower. However there was only our tent plus one other the whole weekend.
The field was large but on a slight hill. This didn't bother us too much as the tent went up fine and we just set up the cooker table level so the food and drinks didn't slide off. Lol
Please note: there are no facilities for children.
There were horses in the next field which made strange noises during the night but apart from that the campsite was deadly quiet. I usually have to sleep with earplugs in when we go to family campsites but I slept through due to how peaceful it was.
The location of the campsite was fab for getting to Manchester so we took a day trip to the City. There is also a pub at the bottom of the road however we didn't visit the pub as we had brought all we needed along with us so I can't say if it served food or not.
All in all we did enjoy our weekend despite the porta-cabin and rubbish bank holiday weather. Cooking our food to that view made it all worth it.
We didn't meet the owner and no one met us on site so we ended up paying another guest through an agreement we made over the telephone.
Even though this review probably sounds really negative (I've not meant to be I just feel that I needed to be honest) we would in-fact return to this campsite, if the owners sorted out the porta-cabin, as the location is beautiful.

Myself my wife and niece visited this site for one night when we couldn't get on a site in holmfirth.
We booked by phone and arrived 40mins later. The owner was very welcoming.
We asked when we arrived what time we had to vacate and the owner said 6pm if you want. The toilets we clean with hot water in washbasins. We had hookup electricity and beautiful views over langsett res.
The Peddlers arm's was 5mins walk down the hill and the now famous Bank view cafe across the road from the pub. All in all a great little gem of a site. We will be back. Thanks!
