Campalot's review of Holmfirth, Holme Valley Camping And Caravan Park

★☆☆☆☆

“Avoid at all costs!!!”

Written on: 12/06/2012 by Campalot (1 review written)

Having just returned from this site I was truly shocked at how bad it was!. After reading through some of the previous reviews I was expecting a well presented site however I was extremely disappointed, think Gypsie camp and it will give you some idea.
The road ,if you can call it that, is narrow steep and full of deep potholes and the pitches are either swamp like (grass) or dirty and badly maintained (hard standing) you really do need to take your shoes off at the door or risk ruining your carpets.As for the residential vans (yes people actually live here!) they are dirty and all packed together under the trees with several having collection of scrap (old fridges and the like) outside of them. As you walk around the park you get some very strange smells emanating from some of the vans, I can only imagine what their smoking. As for the toilet and shower block whilst clean they are very dated and if your not up early you will end up with a cold shower and there are no were near enougth facilities for the number of pitches. The shop is however well stocked and quite cheap for a site shop but don't expect any smiles from the owner who likes to talk down to everybody like a child.
I'm sorry I can't be more positive but this place really is disgusting and I will never return, which is a shame because the area itself is quite beautiful and there aren't many sites in the area.
