  • Well-maintained caravan in spectacular South Yorkshire countryside
  • Yorkshire Sculpture Park 10 minutes’ drive; Holmfirth 20 minutes
  • Set on a working family farm with livestock; forest walks from site
For a peaceful escape on a South Yorkshire farm, the cosy static caravan at Winter Hill Grange takes some beating. As well as spectacular views over valleys and forest to stately Cannon Hall and Cannon Hall Farm (as seen on TV), it’s surrounded by fields and your only neighbours will be Aberdeen Angus cows, grazing sheep (with lambs in spring) and lots of peacocks, turkeys, ducks and hens. Cosy living accommodation includes double and twin bedrooms with ensuites and storage, comfy seating for lazy days, and a compact dining area next to the kitchen corner. Outside there’s a small pond area (safely fenced off so it’s no problem if you’re travelling with toddlers) that’s home to the farm’s contingent of ducks, plus a maze of footpaths leading straight into woodland. Access to this snug little retreat is through a wide gateway, with a lane leading directly to the parking area. As the caravan is close to the main yard on a working family farm, dogs are not allowed on site.

Liked: Had a fantastic break for a week at the farm. A warm friendly welcome and a very clean and organised caravan with everything you need. Looking forward to returning one day to see some more of the sites and take some countryside walks. Many many thanks and our kindest regards Jason, Jen & Ruby.

Liked: We loved every minute of being at Winter Hill Grange, from the home to everything about the area. We say home because it was definitely very homely for all of us, especially the children, they were very comfortable, happy and felt safe the entire time. The views and atmosphere are beautiful and soo peaceful. The hospitality is amazing, everything is available in the home from cutlery to cereal for the children and the gesture of free eggs for us from the farm was very kind. The children really enjoyed themselves soo much that they want to return again as soon as... Big thumbs up from all of Us as a family. Thankyou...

Liked: Amazing location and views. Sounds of the farm (chickens, turkeys, ducks, cows). Spotted an owl in flight from the window. Fresh eggs for breakfast.

Disliked: Main gate to the farm was a bit cumbersome (only a minor annoyance)

Liked: The caravan was amazing, very clean and welcoming. The farm itself is such a nice environment to be in. My youngest daughter was obsessed with the ducks, chickens and horses. The views were amazing from the caravan too.

Disliked: Nothing :)

Liked: The mobile home is lovely peaceful and quiet and has some beautiful views of the valley out the window. It has great walks around the area through woods and public pathways. Our kids really enjoyed the exploring. There is a beautiful peacock on the farm and lovely ponies and ducks. There were eggs left in for us to use which was a lovely touch. We ate in the The Cherry Tree which is only a short drive /walk away and found everyone very friendly. It's only half an hours drive from Diggerland. The owners were also lovely and friendly.

Local attractions

For bracing family walks, head for spectacular Emley Moor (10 minutes’ drive) to get up close to Yorkshire’s own Eiffel Tower – aka Emley Moor TV mast, the tallest free-standing structure in the UK, which towers 1,080 ft above the surrounding heathland. For ambles among other man-made installations, the Yorkshire Sculpture Park (also 10 minutes) has ever-changing alfresco sculpture exhibitions set in green parkland. Yorkshire’s industrial heritage looms large, with guided walks down a former pit and tours of colliery machinery at the National Coal Mining Museum for England (15 minutes). You can also explore the former mining village, craft workshops and historic steam railway at Elsecar Heritage Centre (25 minutes). Most kids will adore the chance to chuff through the countryside on a vintage steam train from Whistlestop Valley (10 minutes), and on chillier days, you can keep yourselves occupied on the pirate-themed waterslides at Barnsley Metrodome Waterpark (20 minutes). If you need inspiration for more family days out, Cannon Hall Farm (five minutes) has small animals to cuddle and a soft-play centre for younger kids, and there are endangered polar bears, big cats and rhinos to spot on a walk-through safari at Yorkshire Wildlife Park (50 minutes).
