  • 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

Fantastic adult-only spot! Reviewers rave about spacious pitches, top-notch facilities, and lovely fishing lakes. Farm shop and cafe get thumbs up. Owner David is a star! Dogs welcome with a special field. Minor points: signage and WiFi can be iffy. Manager's on the ball with upgrades.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Great site for a first time user. Owner super helpful. Facilities great.

Disliked Only thing that let it down was the hardcover base that was an uncomfortable walk to and from the facilities in anything other than walking boots. WiFi was also a little patchy.

Fully-serviced gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Got to be one of the best we’ve stayed in over the last 3 1/2 years of having our campervan.
We are having our van upgraded by a company in Doncaster so needed to be local.
Once we arrived we were shown to our pitch by David. We were told all we needed to know about cafe and farm shop. Explained where all the amenities were.
Saturday was a bit of a wash out due to weather and late arrival.
But our dog Huey was happy with the walks around the fishing lakes and the penned off dog area. Toilets and showers very clean although didn’t use shower as we have our own.
We travelled about 8 minutes up the road for a fish and chip tea.
The cafe wasn’t a disappointment on Sunday morning. Lovely egg and bacon roll and a cuppa.
And the homemade apple and raspberry pie went down a treat after our tea on Sunday.
It was so peaceful, everyone saying hello.
Can only recommend Bank End waters to all!

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.
