Liked: We purely booked this site because it was close to Leeds University to pick up my son. We were told that saturday night was a festival night which we thought how was this going to work out. Well all i can say is "Wow" the music played by a very talented mixer on the desks was incredible and so enjoyable the atmosphere was electric. They were all so accomodating we will definately be going back to Charlie Bassetts next year.
Disliked: Not much to dislike really.

Liked: Definitely will be going back to Charlie’s. From 1st arrival to leaving was treated with a smile. Hospitality was another level great on site public house. And then to top it had an outdoor dance music festival on the gardens with bbq and outdoor bar. Was told different festivals are planned throughout the year. So keep looking out for them on facebook. The only thing I’d recommend is to book your meals in the restaurant when booking your stay as it’s obviously that good for food it was fully booked all weekend but obviously the bbq was brilliant and managed to get into 2 of the other local pubs for meals for the other 2 nights. So to end. I’d like tho thank Kev and his team for a great weekend had by all. See you next time.

Liked: Great site, convenient for us but worth travelling for. New toilet and showers. On site pub has great entertainment and friendly staff we didn’t try the food because they were fully booked, but it looked really nice. Saturday was another level festival vibe's, DJ, outdoor catering and bar. Well done to Kev and the gang.

Liked: Lovely friendly little family run site and pub. Beautiful new shower block which was kept squeaky clean. Beautiful countryside views. Easy walks to nearby villages and pubs. Very warm welcome at Charlie's pub, full of locals and campers and a nice outdoor area. Lots of good ale and delicious food. An absolute find!
