  • Adults-only South Yorkshire park 20 minutes’ drive from Doncaster
  • Yorkshire Wildlife Park and The Vulcan Experience 10 minutes’ drive
  • Farm shop and café; dedicated dog park and seven-lake coarse fishery
Set in peaceful rural surroundings on the border of South Yorkshire, Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire, Bank End Waters is an adults-only touring caravan and leisure park with 90 acres of private grounds. It’s 20 minutes’ drive east of Doncaster, with fully serviced pitches on level hardstanding and grass, and there’s an accessible shower block with loos and a washing machine. Handy on-site facilities include a farm shop selling locally reared meats and poultry, homebaked pies, quiches and pasties (saves you doing the cooking) as well as an assortment of fruit, veg and salads. All the food in the café is homemade, and if you want to eat à deux back at your pitch, there’s a takeaway service as well. The site welcomes dogs, and they even have their own, fully secure designated exercise field – just please clean up after your hounds (there’s a bin by the gate for that very purpose). It’s also home to an established fishery with seven well-stocked coarse fishing lakes and a tackle shop for all your angling needs. You can buy day tickets there too.

What customers say

Great new adult-only site: spacious pitches, spotless facilities, lovely lake views. Owner David praised, as is the farm shop and dog area. Minor road/train noise, patchy WiFi, some unpaved pitches, but improvements ongoing.

Fully-serviced gravel and concrete caravan site

Liked This is a new site and still under some development. That said it is very well presented and the facilities are fresh and spotless. We were met on arrival by David who was most welcoming and helpful. Our pitch, selected for us, matched our needs exactly and our dogs were catered for by a reasonably sized enclosure for off-lead exercise. The whole site is specifically for anglers to fish the several lakes but the whole make a pleasant area to stroll around, but dogs must be on a lead. There is a farm shop and cafe on-site and a well presented web site with on-line booking.

Disliked There is very little to dislike but there is some distant noise from the trainline and road that pass the site yet neither bothered us. The chemical toilet facility exists but is still under development however is still better than some others we have encountered. If you want to let your dogs off the lead for a run then you need to go off site. We went to Kings Wood just north of Bawtry on the A638. It is a secure area for dogs to run free.

Local attractions

Fans of vintage aircraft can have a field day when staying at Bank End Waters. Book in ahead of time to tour the cockpit and fuselage of a jet fighter at The Vulcan Experience (10 minutes’ drive), or check out the Harrier jump jets, military helicopters and World War II Blitz exhibits at interactive South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum (20 minutes). If you fancy getting up close to capybaras and lemurs, Yorkshire Wildlife Park (10 minutes) is the place for you; you can also take walk-through safaris of enclosures where lions, cheetahs, hyenas and black rhinos roam freely. There’s animal action of a different kind to be had at Doncaster Racecourse (20 minutes), which has a full schedule of flat and jump racing throughout the year. Culture hounds often make a beeline for the partially restored ruins of medieval Conisbrough Castle (half an hour), where you can climb the tower for dramatic countryside views, walk around the keep and trace the castle’s history in the visitor centre. Also well worth a visit is handsome Brodsworth Hall and Gardens (35 minutes), a Victorian estate with a mansion open for guided tours and colourful landscaped grounds to explore.
