Nice site with easy access to Leeds and surrounding areas

The Old Packing Station
Small site with hard standings and grass. Good mobile and TV reception. Constant background noise and occasional sirens from the M62 nearby but not too bad. Don't approach via Drub Lane if you have a big unit - the lane is quite narrow with sharp uphill bends that some may find daunting. Latham Lane is a dead end for cars, although you can walk down it. Friendly welcome. Fields on 3 sides but some views restricted by hedges. Dogs allowed but you can't exercise your dogs on site.

Great base to visit family in Leeds

The Old Packing Station
We stayed for 4 nights to visit family in Leeds, a great place to visit with easy access to Leeds and the surrounding area. Pitching was easy with pitches level and marked with your name, long electric cables needed for some pitches. The entrance was sloping but not a problem for us even with the car in tow. The owner Ruth was lovely and very accommodating. A small amount of road noise from M62 motorway quiet at night and not intrusive. Overall a great site. We will be back.

Great base for local area

The Old Packing Station
This site is was perfect for us visiting family and attending an event in Leeds. Site is down a lovely quiet lane. Very close to the M62 but remarkably this did not matter, yes there is a constant hum as others have mentioned but it did not bother us. The site is tidy and compact. The owner was friendly and helpful. As a base for visiting it was ideal and I am sure we will come again. Only slight downside for us as dog owners as there was very little within a 1-2 mile radius to take the dog. The lane is ok but to take off the lead and stretch his legs there was not much. Also be aware if coming in colder months the owner states electric heaters are not permitted as presumably they feel they use too much electricity. It also says £10 a night, we were charged £12.50 with a small porch awning so that could do with updating on here. Overall a handy little site.

Great for going back in time

The Old Packing Station
An ideal site for our visit to the Brighouse 1940s weekend. When we initially booked we had to leave a message on the answerphone. Later that evening Mrs Fretwell rang back and confirmed our booking - and gave us the code to the security gate. We arrived midday on the Friday - to find our hardstanding had been reserved for us with a cone - it had been raining so the grassed area could have been soft - better safe than sorry. We reversed in to our pitch on the first night - our habitation door is on the driver's side - but on the second night we drove in to take advantage of the fact that the grassed area was vacated - allowing us to put out our awning and take advantage of the last of the evening sunshine and dine 'al fresco'. Mrs Fretwell was very chatty and made us feel very welcome. Even though the motorway wasn't too far away, the "hum" of the traffic did not interfere with a peaceful night's sleep. The birds made more noise in the morning!! We were also pitched next to a mobile phone mast - and didn't notice the hum until another "camper" asked if the "hum" had bothered us - even then - once I could hear it - the noise wasn't obtrusive - as I said - had my attention not been drawn to it I wouldn't have noticed it at all. Needless to say, we had a strong mobile phone signal. Should we ever visit that area in the future we won't hesitate to book there again.

Overnight stop

The Old Packing Station
Had an overnight on this site, very easy to find with a good welcome from the owner. Site is level and well kept and electric gates for security. A very good site with good access to leeds and the surrounding area. Found the site peaceful part from the Lancaster flying overhead which was unplanned treat. Would recommend and will return for a longer stay.
