Friday 7th August – Tuesday 11th August 2009
I have stayed at this site before at the beginning of my mooch [site 11, not on blog]. If you are not bothered about the absence of a toilet block then you really need to put this site on your ‘to do list’. Situated on the B6138 about a mile south of Mytholmroyd the approach is fairly straight forward but you need to take a wide swing off the A646 if you approach from the east. Most of the pitches are on hardstandings and I was told that the grassed pitches at the lower part of the site do not drain well during wet periods. Some pitches have good views of the surrounding hills.
A bus to Hebden Bridge runs from outside the gate, and bus and rail services to further parts run through Mytholmroyd. Hebden Bridge is a popular tourist spot and parking can be hard to find. The nearest supermarket of reasonable size is in Sowerby Bridge [where I once ran a pub in an earlier life] but smaller stores are situated in Hebden Bridge and Mytholmroyd.
I met Susan & George from Rothwell near Leeds, who were staying onsite with one of their children and the family dogs, and I promised I would give them a mention.
