Date of Visit: August 2015 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Doublea1210 1 review from this member

 We just bought a tent and we had our first night camping as a family, 2 adults and 2 children. We picked this site as it is near home, and we could not have been happier.

The tent field was massive and we had no problem finding a pitch. The staff could not have been more helpful.

The toilets and shower room were clean, and 20p for a shower is very cheap.

I would recommend this park to anyone. We are already planning our next trip there.

 We chose this site as we had just purchased a new caravan and wanted to make sure everything was working before we went on holiday, and this site was just down the road from where we live. Well, we could not believe that this lovely campsite was on our doorstep! We were the last to arrive but had a lovely roomy grass pitch in beautiful countryside. The owner was friendly and came to make sure we were settled in okay.

The views from the top of the lane were stunning. It was very hard to believe we were so close to Barnsley - a great site, well worth a visit.

 Just returned after stay of two nights at this site.

Was met by the owner who told me where tent field was and was more like a green on a golf course than a camping site.

Surroundings lovely and peaceful. Ideal for the break I needed.

Shower block ideal. Compared to sites used in past. Yes it few years old but clean. 20p for a shower. That's nothing lovely and warm.

Pay 50p for air at a garage these days.

Pot washing in a building where local info and supply of books to read in there.

Ok no swings for kids but that obvious to keep noise down. I not a nature lover but found myself amazed by wildlife in area.

On leaving can say this shook owners hand to thank him for his work to keep site so lovely.

Could have been in peak district not feel like Barnsley.

So if want to be pleasantly surprised or need a relaxing break trust me this site as it.

If kids not entertained with wildlife and prefer a swimming pool and lots of screaming kids around then not for you.

Overall brilliant site.

 To say this site is not far from barnsley you would not believe it. Lovely country side, great walks, and a quiet site, the owner could not do enough to make you feel welcome, but I think it would benefit more if it had a shop and a play area for the kids. Even though we were in a tent I think there needs to be electric hook ups for tents, this is a quiet site and no loud noise will be tolerated my the owner, I would go back to this site just for the wild life you see, we had a great stay.

 We stay at Greensprings regularly and love this site. It is set in beautiful countryside, with lovely walks and woods surrounding it. The tent field is well maintained with generous pitches and lots of room for children to play and explore. Lifted BBQs are allowed and there is nothing finer than sitting round the BBQ watching the sun setting, the bats flying and hearing the owls in the nearby woods.

Whilst the shower block is older, it is cleaned regularly with a generous, steaming hot shower for 20p. Camping, after all is about getting back to nature and my children love the bugs and the birds nesting in and around the shower block!

Just off the M1 it is in a great location which feels secluded and rural. Lovely pub grub a walk away. We will be re-visiting this site in the summer.

Date of Visit: October 2014 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Fenderbender 7 reviews from this member

 The last time I stayed at this site was about 12 years ago, I have just visited again and it hasn't changed.

Still has the scruffy toilet/shower block.

I paid at the house and was told it was quiet so I could pitch up anywhere I wanted, when I got to the site there was only one pitch left all the others were taken up with seasonal or caravans in storage, there were no people. They have made an attempt at putting some hard standings down, it will probably be another 12 years before its completed.

Its a shame because it could be a nice site, I live fairly close and would visit regularly if they got the new shower block sorted and tidied up.

I got the impression that they are not particularly interested.

Cost was £15 per night in October.

I have stayed at much nicer certificated sites at less than half this price. They have only themselves to blame for the low ratings.

 Not been for a couple of years and when we returned we couldn't believe the Toilet/Shower block is not up and running, this has been going on for 10 years or more, situated in a beautiful area, could be a very nice site (it use to be ) if the Toilet / Shower block was finished and some cleaning up of the site in general was done. We will not go back until things improve.

Reviewer: Braesideman 2 reviews from this member

 Only stayed one night without hook-up.

The site itself seemed nice enough and not far off the M1 so quite handy for overnight stays.

The owners did their best to help us and were polite enough.

Shops not far away and a decent pub close by.

The huge downfall of the site is the toilet/shower block. It's desperate for replacement, awful. And to charge 20p for a shower is unbelievable.

Wouldn't consider a return while they still have the same facilities.

Reviewer: Modenalee 3 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from a weekend at Greensprings. We only live a few miles away and know the park as we have walked through it before. Decided on a nice little local weekend away so chose here. The site is really nice and a nice location if you like walks, local pubs and a bit of peace :D More popular that I imagined but not over crowded. The site itself can't be faulted but it does SO SO desperately need the toilet and shower block finishing. A few have mentioned it on here, and mentioned the 20p 7 minute showers being adequate but for me it is no really acceptable in this day and age and with what other sites have to offer. It lets the site down largely. We paid £20 per night for our tourer and 2 adults, 2 kids. We have paid less at haven sites and look at their shower blocks. Would not mind the basics at a more basic price! Get the new block finished (been on with over 10 years I heard lol) and the site would be brilliant!

Other than that no complaints :D If you go, a walk to the Cock Inn is a must :D

 We have just spent 3 nights at this hidden gem of a camp site, it is only 20 minutes away from where we live but it is set in a lovely countryside setting surrounded by farmland and woodland. The toilet blocks are a bit dated but very clean, 20 pence gets you 7 minutes of lovely hot water plenty time for a good shower. The surrounding are is perfect for walking, Wentworth Castle is about a 30 minute walk away, Worsbrough water mill is a little further away walking through lovely countryside and other country parks and tourist attractions are only a short drive away, we will be making this site our getaway for long weekends in the future.
