  • 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).

What customers say

Lovely, well-kept site, great value. Owners are super friendly & helpful. Basic showers/toilets are spotless. Plenty of room for kids. Handy for attractions. A bit of road noise noted. Highly recommended for a chilled break.

Liked I loved the chill layed back style of the place. The owner was nice guy on hand for help or a chat. Quiet areas for old gits like me, and family areas for kids and families. What's not to like.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked Had shower and toilets. Lots of water taps around the site as well which was really handy and a sink with hot and cold water taps.
Host was lovely, very welcoming.
Not far from Yorkshire wildlife park- about 10/15 mins. We went to Normanby Hall which was great value for money but a tad further away.

Disliked The noise from the road was at times was very loud. Not so much noticeable in the day/evening as other noise but was loud at times when trying to sleep.
Facilities were basic in terms of toilets etc.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked Friendly and accommodating owner.
Plenty of space and choice of pitches. Great location with nice village and pub walking distance. Very competitive price for the area.

Disliked Facility block is basic, but regularly cleaned and everything works so no bad thing, just nitpicking to find anything to dislike at the price paid.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked This was our first ever camping trip so didn't know what to expect , but we were more then pleased on arrival , lovley views , flat spacious fields and very welcoming owners.
We got there earlyish around 1030am and had our pick of pitches . There are 2 smaller areas at the front and a large open field to rear . A play area for the kids (swings , slide , which our 3 yr old virtually lived on) .
Facilities are basic but clean and they are in the process of improving them.
This is definitely a great pick if you want that taste of camping but within a safe area.
Our 3yr old was always within sight of us so we gave him freedom to run around and explore knowing he was safe .
We throughly enjoyed our stay and will be coming back if not this year definitely next.

Disliked Having to go home !!

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.
