Just set up, our Vango Airbeam Eclipse 600. Amazing tent. Now upgraded to a newer model.

All our inflatable sofas and recliners set up after just getting the carpet down.

Total excitement of camping!

THE CAMPSITE INSPECTORS

Our review of Hayfield House, Flockton


✅ Grass and pitch condition - Excellent

❌ Shower facilities - Poor

✅ Staff - Friendly

❌ Pitch lighting - Poor

✅ Fire pits allowed - Yes

✅ Electric Hook up - Yes

❌ Amenities on the site - No

✅ Wash up area - Yes

❌ Good walks nearby - No

✅ Peaceful location - Yes


Although this site only scored 6/10 it is a lovely little peaceful site in the West Yorkshire countryside. We use this site for quick weekend getaways. The hook up is cheap at £17 per night. It’s a lovely quiet relaxing site, the biggest disappointment is the showers, they are run down and in urgent need of upgrading - so much so that Paula refused to use them (and she normally uses all Campsite showers). So you ask - would we return, errr.... yes we would but for overnight stays only,

happy camping!

These are really great photos, its good to see the little ones enjoying camping. Its good for them and more and more adults should introduce kids to camping, they always seem to sleep better too. A really great photo blog!
