  • Close to Route 68 and Britain's highest vineyard
  • Spectacular Holme Valley views
  • Farm shop just steps away
Heard of Holmfirth Vineyard? How about Route 68? Listen up, Yorkshire-bound holidaymakers, for these are two Holmfirth places that should feature on your list of Must Visit Forthwith. Holmfirth Vineyard is Britain’s highest and is visited by thousands of wine fans annually, who flow here to take tours and tipples. And Route 68? This is Britain’s longest cycling route, ringing the scenic changes of the land along 355 miles of landscape from Derby, through the Peak District and on to Berwick-upon-Tweed. Both vineyard and cycling could easily be combined on a Yorkshire camping holiday, but doing all the Route 68 miles might lead you to wine about sore muscles afterwards… Say cheers to being close to both with a stay at Whitegate Leisure Caravan and Camp Site, a 10-minute walk from the wines and a prompt pedal from the bike route, which passes along the bottom of the park. The views of the Holme Valley from here are corking (if you’ve seen Last of the Summer Wine you’ll know the lie of the land), all among a peaceful park with toilets and shower block, water point, blue waste disposal and an outdoor washing-up area. The owners have hardcored and turfed over all the pitches here, to keep a countryside feel and prevent tourers and motorhomes getting stuck if it rains. Holmfirth village is about 40 minutes’ walk away and will see you sorted with its pubs, cafés, shops and restaurants; Coddy’s farm shop, steps away from the site, can sort you with bits for a DIY dinner.

What customers say

This is a beautifully maintained and exceptionally clean campsite with friendly, helpful owners. Guests praise the spotless facilities, stunning views, and convenient location for walking. While most visitors have a fantastic experience, some mention potential windiness and noise from a nearby wind turbine. The access roads are noted as narrow, but the overall consensus is that the site is well worth the visit.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely clean facilities (although we used our own), beautifully kept site with a coded security barrier, short grass. Fabulous views and location. Taxis into Holmfirth were easily available and very reasonably priced. Also very reasonably priced at £30 with electric in peak season. The seasonal pitches on the hardstandings were all clean and tidy; these were at the entrance to the site and separate from the touring field.

Disliked Pitch was allocated and personally we would prefer to chose our own and some pitches were sloping, as was our allocated one. Even on top of the ramps with blocks underneath, we couldn’t get level. Maybe on next booking we could request a level pitch 🤔.

Liked Great site with lovely views. Peaceful , met with lovely owner who helped my husband park the caravan and spent time showing him easier ways to park as he is just getting used to towing/ parking. Spotless toilet block. Lovely walk down to holmfirth village around 40 mins . We will definitely return

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked V simple, quiet campsite
Beautifully maintained
Owners v friendly and helpful
There's not much around but that is part of why we liked it.
We wanted to stay near the vineyard. It's only ten or so minutes walk but it is down very steep hill, which is even steeper coming back. Still worth the effort though.

Local attractions

If you’ve ever seen the BBC programme Last of the Summer Wine, you’ll know the scenery of the Holme Valley and the stone cottages of Holmfirth – for this, goggleboxers, is where it was filmed. Compo, Clegg et al are immortalised in an exhibition up in Compo’s cottage. For a small town, Holmfirth has a fair bit going on all year round, including live music events, a film festival and an arts festival. Miles and miles of walks and bike rides in spectacular scenery are all around too, from pedalling or pottering around the Holme Valley to roaming around the Peak District four miles south from Holmfirth. If pottering, take the short walk around the woods of Digley Reservoir or go birdwatching at Blackmoorfoot Reservoir; if pedalling, tire your legs out on the climb to Holme Moss View Point, or stick to Route 68 and go south from Holmfirth to Dunford Bridge on the route’s Peak District section. Alternatively, travel northeast and northwest for day trips at the Yorkshire Dales and North Yorkshire Moors national parks, or dazzle in the bright lights of Manchester and Leeds, both about 20 miles away by car.
