just a short recommendation for this wonderful site, ok no toilet block but if that fine by you this site is magical and only a short ride into the quirky Hebden Bridge.

The wardens are brilliant they have transformed this site into a garden we were here with Poppy she loved it have a look in the book or on line well worth visiting.

    I agree I also think it's a nice little site. There is a bus service for those that don't want to take their vehicles off site although the walk down into Mytholmroyd is not too bad where there are more buses.

    Have they finished the flood defence work in Mytholmroyd yet?

    Why would a large lovely site like that have no toilet block. No good for disabled then.

    We thought it was a very attractive little site with imaginative landscaping. The only draw back was damaging our van roof nearby as the flood repair roadworks were quite disruptive and we missed the correct turning and had the mishap with the van doing this. Other than that it's a unique little site and we had the river as a pleasant back drop.

    Rather depends on the level of disability.

    We spend a the majority of our time away on rally fields or basic CL's/CS's/THS's & manage very well using the onboard facilities.

    Modest sized and, for CAMC, reasonably priced. Certainly worth a punt. Even more so if you have a dog and like walking to all those reservoirs and your name is Tarantino.

    IF people have walking difficulties they don't have to walk to the toilet and showers.

    When we left the site we turned right towards Halifax and found that a much better route, and more scenic, than going through the roadworks.

    Totally agree, there should be more 'non facility' sites such as HB.

    This is a cracking site...well deserved credit to the Wardens. Very pleased to hear the club has installed a few SP's. I shall return....

    Yes we did that David, but we also decided to take the van to Hebden Bridge before we went to the site. So we trundled off, found a parking place, enjoyed a stroll around and had a nice lunch...and then made the wrong turning as we approached the roadworks and site. frown
