  • Peaceful adults-only site on 17 rural acres, 15 minutes from Doncaster
  • Within an hour of York, the east coast and Peak District National Park
  • Well-stocked fishing lake plus spotless modern amenities
A chilled-out day of fishing, surrounded by 17 acres of woods and grassland for guaranteed peace and quiet while you’re at it: it doesn’t come much better than this… Well… unless you could stretch that serene vibe out by staying there overnight and coming back for a bit more tomorrow. And indeed you can at South Yorkshire site Beech Tree Lakes, where the pitches are handily placed a mere short saunter from the water’s edge – how’s that for easy access to a day (or preferably a few) of fishing? It’s unlikely that you’ve come here in search of noisy parties and non-stop entertainment, so the family-run site here has been kept accordingly low-key on the facilities front: free wifi, electric hook-ups and a toilet/shower block that’s reserved for overnight guests (with keys given out upon arrival to ensure no incursions by other passers by). Should you require a break from the lakeside action, this handy Hatfield Woodhouse location is well placed for easy comings and goings, with several main roads and motorways in the vicinity. Any requirements for urban amenities can be sorted in Doncaster, 15 minutes' drive away and your nearest hub for shops, restaurants and the like.

Liked: Warm welcome. Easy access level pitch with own electric & tap. Close to the toilets and showers. All very tidy and well signposted. A special thanks to Sam who came to my rescue when I had a problem hitching up my caravan. He was very helpful and very friendly.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: This part of the country is beautiful. The site was a nice place. Had a good 5 days but even though I booked it for fishing my husband had no enthusiasm to fish.

Disliked: The fish are obviously fed by hand so are not afraid of shadows etc come right to you. Worst thing of all though was the Canadian geese. Proper spoilt our time. Woke us up at 5.30 am with their noise. Was always flapping about. Not good. X

ANDREW W. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

FHU grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: May i start by saying this is a brilliant site only 40 mins from my house and is a adult only site ,dogs a very welcome if under control and do not cause a disturbance to others, the site is clean and well looked after ,the fishing ponds are well stocked and the fish in there vary from carp ,rudd ,roach ,perch and many others species the fish are all in brilliant condition. Peter and Kath are the owners they have a son Andrew and a daughter Alex (this is the dislike part please read) and there family help along with Sam they are all willing to go that extra mile to help you. the showers and toilets a 5 star kept very clean, there is a washer and dryer for a small fee ,pot washing facilities etc.

Disliked: Over the last 18months or so Alex has been given a bit of a lead role in the running ,her attitude towards many campers stinks she has no customer service skills what so ever when you speak to people on the site they give you the same reaction some even saying she looks down her nose at you, well this is very true. The site is up for sale a local man has taken interest in it and he will be taking over, when he takes over we will visit again but not till then.

Local attractions

The fishing’s the main thing here, but it’s far from the only thing… you could easily fill many a day touring the surrounds too. If you want that nature hit with a bit more activity, you might like to head west for an hour or so to hike or bike in the Peak District National Park, or plot a course east to hit the coast at Cleethorpes in roughly the same length of time. Rather watch other folks doing all the energetic things? (Fair enough, you’re on hols…) The famed Doncaster Racecourse is 20 minutes away; if there’s nothing on there, check out the course at York (50 minutes away) instead. York’s worth a visit even if you’re not into the horses: the minster, the National Railway Museum and the Jorvik Viking Centre are among the reasons to visit, and the historic centre is fab for an amble. Guests with an eye for all things that go may want to take a trip into Doncaster to see a splendid collection of historic planes at South Yorkshire Aircraft Museum (20 minutes) or book ahead to get up close to the groundbreaking Vulcan that resides at the National Aviation Academy (10 minutes). If you prefer your attractions living and breathing, hit the Yorkshire Wildlife Park (15 minutes) instead.
