  • 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 clean, well-maintained campsite with stunning views and excellent facilities, including spotless toilets and showers. Visitors praise the friendly and helpful owners and the peaceful atmosphere, with many walks directly accessible from the site. Holmfirth is a pleasant downhill walk away. Some guests mention potential windiness and noise from a nearby wind turbine, and advice on accessing the site via suitable roads is recommended.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked A lovely site with welcoming and friendly owners. Very clean showers - although fixed overhead only, a pet hate of mine, but lovely and warm. Well set out plots.Lots of fab walks and places to visit nearby. Good WiFi. Lovely farm shop nearby. Cannot fault this site.

Disliked Advice rather than dislike - check your route in advance. Your sat nav will take you down some of the narrowest lanes with the sharpest turns if you are not careful.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked The facilities were good.

Disliked This is no detriment to the site owners at all but the location with regards to the weather can be bad, unfortunately we picked a storm time to stay and the wind was horrendous, poor sleep worrying the MH was going to take off, constant shaking, not a relaxing time.

Recommend to friends Visit again

We loved our stay at Whitegate, recommended!

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.
