  • Well-maintained and peaceful campsite on a South Yorkshire farm
  • In a small village 15 minutes’ drive from Yorkshire Wildlife Park
  • Grass pitches; wildlife on site; fishing and golf 20 minutes’ drive
When what you want is a bit of peace on a rural South Yorkshire hideaway, you’re covered with a stay at Pond Farm Campsite in the small, rural and friendly village of Graizelound. It's a 25-minute drive from the shops, restaurants, racecourse and cinema of lively Doncaster. As you’ve probably guessed from the name, the pitches are on a working farm, and there are gorgeous countryside views to take in wherever you look. Keep your eyes peeled when on site for local wildlife too, including brown hares in spring, elusive deer and birds of prey. Dogs are welcome here, so bring them along to share in your ambles along quiet lanes bordering the River Trent straight from the pitches. Simple and well-maintained facilities on the spacious and level camping field include a dedicated waste-removal area, drinking water and a no-frills loo. Barbecues are permitted on site, and you can buy grilling supplies from the convenience store in nearby Haxey (five minutes).

Liked What a great experience from the second we arrived!

We were warmly greeted by the owner, Andy, who showed us where to pitch up. As we had an electric pitch, he said he’d be over in five minutes to get us sorted, which was a lovely welcome.

We unfortunately ended up with a puncture in our inflatable bed and asked if they had any tape. Andy was more than happy to help us out, which really sums up the whole experience. Andy and the team, who are mostly family-run, were always around if anyone needed anything, but never intrusive.

It was also really easy to spot the staff around the site, as they had a little truck they used to drive around in, constantly keeping on top of things such as emptying the bins and keeping the campsite tidy.

The Pig Out food truck deserves a special mention too — the food was delicious and amazingly priced!

There are portaloos dotted around the campsite, as well as a toilet and shower block. There’s also a large basin for washing pots, and clean drinking water points are conveniently scattered around the site.

One of our favourite things was the animals. You could go and visit them, and if a staff member was around, you could even go in and meet some of them up close. They all seemed incredibly happy, healthy and very well cared for. There are also some lovely walks surrounding the campsite.

The overall atmosphere was calm and relaxed, but there was still a great sense of fun. You could play music beside your tent while being respectful of other campers, have a laugh and generally enjoy yourself. We felt so comfortable that we even ended up joining the family who run the campsite for a laugh and a chat.

For children, there’s loads to keep them entertained, from the animals and park to the bouncy castle, which is put up every afternoon. There really is something for everyone.

We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely come back again. A genuinely lovely campsite with a fantastic, friendly atmosphere and a brilliant family behind it. Highly recommended!

Liked Friendly staff

Disliked Pitches too close to each other. It’s a free for all, not managed very well although workers are friendly enough. There is a nice walk to go on with your pooch but if you want peace and quiet this campsite is not for you.

Power optional grass campsite

Liked At first I liked the security of the gates, but this turned on us by the end of the weekend!

Disliked The noise, the fighting, the loud music and young groups of lads shouting and swearing until early hours.
The porta loo was swimming in urine, the ground was uneven, and the beer tent was so loud.
The gate was barricaded by a tree trunk purposefully placed there to stop people getting in or out once we had arrived and pitched up?

Pitch up made this site look idyllic and peaceful. Its far from it!

Power optional grass campsite

Liked Lots of porta loos dotted about which were kept very clean
Pitch sizes were large

Disliked The only tap for water was quite a hike.
This was a very noisy site, there was a pop up bar which was loud until at least midnight.
On the Saturday all the people who were in caravans were arguing very loud and we got quite concerned when one of them drove a tractor in amongst the area where kids were playing at a very fast pace to block the gate! Then the police came, we just at this point retreated to our abode as it was getting very serious and far from a peaceful weekend away that we thought we were getting!
On our second night there was two car loads of young lads (about ten of them) racked up with a tent between them, they were very drunk and holding their own rave party until 2am!

Local attractions

Days out with the kids will probably include Yorkshire Wildlife Park (15 minutes’ drive), where you can take walking safaris through a reserve that’s home to big cats, zebras and giraffes, while younger children will adore the cheeky meerkats, wallabies and ostriches at Messingham Zoo (half an hour). Further afield, there are sharks and rays to admire at The Deep (50 minutes). There’s plenty to keep you all active and entertained in the fresh air too, with a couple of golf courses and fishing lakes being within 20 minutes’ drive, and track days at Blyton Park Race Track (25 minutes) to keep petrol heads happy. Hit a rainy day? Head for Doncaster (25 minutes), where there’s a cinema, vintage planes in the South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum and a heady mix of heritage steam trains and contemporary art at the futuristic Danum Gallery, Library and Museum. Weather cleared up again? Back a winner at Doncaster Racecourse, host of the St Leger Festival in September and with racing all year round.
