How's That!

I spent one Thursday night at this site in July 2014, so that I could deliver my caravan to M. G. Caravans, who are just up the road so they could carry out some work the next day for me. The site is easy to find being directly off the A646, although some care is needed to avoid missing the gateway. Once through the gates, the pitches, are all hard standing with electric hook up are sited at the back of the cricket pitch on raised ground abutting the clubhouse where the normal facilities (that are clean and tidy) can be found. In addition, you are most welcome to use the clubhouse bar and facilities when open, if you don’t fancy the five minute walk into the town where you’ll find the normal amenities, (the chippy in the side street behind the bus stop is well worth a visit). On a cautionary note, the clubhouse is open on match days and is used for functions and events that may involve a late bar and associated comings and goings which could disturb you, if you’re ready for an early night. One solution is to join in the fun or check with the Steward at the time of your booking if there’s a function on, you can then make up your mind to stay or not. As I stayed midweek, I didn’t experience any of the problems given in previous reviews although the bar was open and members practiced in the nets during the evening. If cricket is your thing, the club hold regular county matches and your pitch ideally placed to enjoy the match. Further afield, the area has a notable history and the Pennine moor provide endless possibilities for walkers and cyclists alike. I spent the day exploring the moors above Howarth with my Grandson, Magic! worth considering, if you’re visiting the area.
