Date of Visit: June 2015 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Christine10 24 reviews from this member

 Well, what else can I say that I and other reviews have already said. This is an amazing site with well looked after pitches in the orchard. The toilets and shower are spotlessly clean.

The area around the ponds are always tidy and the grass to the platforms is always cut short. It is such a nice peaceful quiet site with no loud music or rowdy people, I would feel very safe staying there by myself. There are big security gates that are locked at night.

The neighbors are pleasant and always acknowledge you when walking past. We are only 20 minutes from home but love this site so much we keep returning again and again. Dave and Marilyn are lovely people and nothing is too much trouble for them.

Dave does a great breakfast in the cafe that is at side of the pond. Once you have stayed here you will be back. 


Date of Visit: April 2015 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Cwalt40 3 reviews from this member

 Having only had my campervan for a week I am so glad that I choose this site for my very first stay.

As a single newbie to owning a campervan, this site is everything you could wish for, peace, quiet and local amenities. I stopped for two nights and realised as soon as I parked that I'd forgotten to bring a cup, no worries the owners were only too happy to help, if I'd have gotten there earlier, I would have been given equipment to set me up on my adventures.

The site is only 20 minutes from Meadowhall and very easy to get to from the M1, its close proximity to Rothervalley is another plus.

Everyone on site were very helpful and to find people that only live 10 minutes away and those living in other countries, using the site regularly and for long periods of time just goes to show how welcoming the owners are.

As a single female I felt very secure at all times and I'm sure I forgot to lock my van and went about my business.

The facilities were very clean and well kept and a credit to the owners.

I can't wait to go again as I thoroughly enjoyed myself, you cannot go wrong staying here.

Reviewer: Thomas39 1 review from this member

 A really excellent site. Certainly lived up to all previous reviews. Lovely location in an orchard full of apple, pear and plum trees - free to pick! Spotless and well serviced toilet and shower facilities. Will certainly recommend this site. Only planned to stay for one week but stayed for two. Really interesting area - industrial heritage, stately homes, castles and country parks. Rother Valley Country Park just a short drive away.

Reviewer: Christine10 24 reviews from this member

 Just had yet again a great few days at this sight, booked for 2 nights but ended up staying 3. We have stayed at this sight several times and always enjoy the peace and quiet. Dave the owner always keeps it immaculate and Marilyn always keeps the toilet and shower spotless. My partner caught the biggest fish of the year 21 lb. Crystal Peaks shopping centre is only a short drive away where there are a variety of shops and eating places. There are 2 Co-ops in walking distance from the sight. We will be returning here again later this year.

 Here's the 18th 10/10 review. An absolutely delightful site with equally delightful owners. Just got back from our Easter weekend stay and. Will be back sooner rather than later. A very warm welcome greets you on arrival at this immaculate property/site. The pitches are on the owners' perfectly mowed/not-a-bald-patch-in-sight lawn which is gated off for security/privacy. Huge thanks to the lady who cancelled the morning we made our booking, thus freeing up a pitch for us :) Don't be fooled by the cul-de-sac/dead end sign on the road nameplate, Horseshoe Lake is then left at the T-junction a few yards into Forge Road.

Spotless loo and I imagine equally spotless shower, don't know didn't use it. The site is between a duck pond (I was lucky enough to see mum and her babies) and a lake, both for anglers, but the owners are happy for you to wander round when there are no anglers.

Pub and Co-op are within walking distance I think, with a chippy a little further, also Chinese and Indian takeaways, another Indian restaurant and a pizza/s. F. Chicken place that delivers.

We visited Rother Valley Country Park which was a short drive away, £3. 50 to park, other activities extra, depending what you're looking for - husband and 'son-in-law' were persuaded to operate a 4-person pedal boat (£9)for half an hour which was a great laugh; the Park appeared less than the 4 miles or so my phone's satnav indicated. Also went to Aston Springs Farm, £3 each adult, ideal for animal lovers like me!

Looking forward to going back soon, hope to see the butterfly house/falconry centre next time.

We paid £14/night, worth every penny, adults only and I'm fairly certain, no dogs, presumably because of the fishing lake/s. I'll probably regret singing the praises of this lovely place which is a credit to David and Marilyn, because I don't want anyone else to know about it!

Reviewer: Christine10 24 reviews from this member

 We have yet again had another great few days at this site. The site is in the orchard where the apple, pear and plumb trees are in abundance. You are always made welcome from the owners and nothing is too much trouble. The grounds are always kept clean and tidy, even the area around the ponds are neat and tidy. There is a co-op and chip shop that is only 10 minutes walk away and a chemist and pub that is only 5 minutes walk away. If you want peace and quiet this is the place for you and you will certainly return.

Reviewer: E+P1 5 reviews from this member

 We stayed here for a long weekend visiting family in Sheffield. We agree with the previous review, this is a gem of a site, very well maintained and the facilities spotlessly clean. When we arrived the owner showed us to our pitch and was extremely nice and helpful.

The site has large wooden gates at the entrance which are locked overnight and smaller gates at the entry to the orchard so felt very secure.

There is a Co op shop and the beautiful Rother Valley Country Park nearby.

The sun was shining, the birds were singing as we sat out under the shade of a greengage tree, it was lovely.

Highly recommended, a pleasure to meet such genuinely nice people.

 A gem of a site, very well kept with firm grass pitches in the orchard. When we arrived we were met by the owner who showed us to our pitch and was extremely nice and helpful with information on local eating establishments and places where we could go for a pint etc.

Toilet and shower rooms were spotlessly clean, a single toilet and shower which is plenty for the limited number of pitches, and we were given a key to the facilities on arrival.

There are three fishing lakes, the main one was busy on the day we left which reinforced the fact that the lakes were well stocked. The owner made us breakfast on the Sunday morning in the little cafe which was great, £4. 95 for a full English.

The site is well guarded with large wooden gates and smaller gates at the entry to the orchard allowing you to relax in the knowledge that your equipment is absolutely secure.

Once again a great little site which I would highly recommend, and only wish I had been staying longer. I'm sure I will return (soon)

Reviewer: LWillson 1 review from this member

 We have just returned to caravanning after having a motorhome for 3 years. We arrived Friday evening having just collected our caravan and I was a bit anxious but I need not have worried. The owner was just wonderful helping us to park, never having used motor movers before it was great to have someone there who did have experience.

We found a pub nearby for an excellent meal that evening. The following morning The owner cooked our breakfast although we could not possibly have managed his full english version, he did us a smaller version for just £2. 60 each. The setting here is idyllic. We were parked in the orchard between two fishing lakes.

The toilet and shower facilities were spotless. We found it really convenient for shopping and getting back to the M1 to head south for a journey home. Sadly we had to get our new caravan home on Sunday otherwise we would have been happy to stay longer.

 Got back today after another, 3rd, great time at this site after booking late on Friday. Arrived on Saturday and set up. My Partner went fishing while I visited Crystal Peaks shopping centre.

The trees in the orchard are full of fruit, the apples and plumbs are nice and sweet, watch for the grubs. Had one of their lovely cooked breakfasts, £4.50, in the little cafe not worth getting the frying pan out as fills you for the day.

Although the weather was not great it was yet again a nice peaceful stay. When the weather is ok there are some nice walks. There is a co-op only 10 minuets walk away.

Will be back before the site closes in October. If you want some peace and quiet then this is the place.
