Ponden Mill

Kedvelték Good access to the site if you approach from the Ponden Mill signage. Ignore sat nav instructions if it takes you across the reservoir. The road on that approach is full of deep potholes. The site is lovely, snuggled below the reservoir and very peaceful.
Facilities include toilets, shower, elsan disposal and sink for washing up. Drinking water tap by facilities and also midpoint on site.
Warm welcome from the host who personally directed me to where I could rest my van and left me in peace for the remainder of my stay… thankyou.

Kedvelték Great clean facilities (shower, toilets, seating area)
Lovely views.
Sheep bleeding nearby.
Spacious and not too busy on a Sunday evening.
Good value for one person with a small tent and easy to book and arrive and set up.

Nem kedvelték Unfortunately, one of the other guests put on a radio and tacky awful music quite loud for several hours until around 10:30 in the evening. So I had to endure drifting off to sleep to those aggravating sounds rather than the calm peaceful Brontë Moors whispering and distant sheep and bird conversations…. that spoiled things somewhat for me, but I assume they made their stay more pleasant. Neighbours!

Maybe a sign could be put up at the site saying keep music on low volume and stop playing it by some reasonable time such as 9:30 pm?

Kedvelték Quite, peaceful spot. We’ve got the slot close to the end and had a beautiful night. We gotten wake up by the sheep’s.

Kedvelték Lovely site with lovely owners. Its a small site next to a stream. We took our children with us and they really enjoyed playing in the stream. They do have WiFi at the house. There is no signal otherwise. Lovely peaceful site though with lovely views. We had food out at a local pub so it is close enough to howarth to go eat and explore. We also saw a lovely white barn owl, lots of sheep and some hedgehogs at night. Bring your binoculars if you come and stay.

Nem kedvelték I would say the shower does need updating and more shelving in there to put your clothes and bags. Toliets need more lighting.

Kedvelték Nice quiet peaceful location. Previous reviews not really fair from what I've seen. Don't expect amazing facilities, but the were clean and serviceable. Nearest pub shut but straight out the gate follow signs right over bridge for millennium walk to next village, 2 pubs, kids park and easy bus to Howarth

Nem kedvelték Nearest pub closed down

Kedvelték We really loved it at Ponden - beautiful surroundings, kind owners, and one of the loveliest walks we've ever done (a walk from the campsite up to Ponden Kirk and back around to meet the reservoir). Watch out for the midges in the evening - you're by a small stream so they're inevitable in the summer.

Kedvelték Picturesque setting with a nice stream running through the site

Nem kedvelték The ow was of the site were so rude and made us feel very unwelcome right from the get go. Zero organisation and unclear instructions

Kedvelték The vibe, atmosphere and personality of this site shine through in every little corner. There must be a lot of love for this place by the admirably friendly people who run this site. Facilities are clean and the owners think about where its best for you to pitch creating pockets of privacy on a relatively small site. There are little secret spots in the paths winding down which feel like a fairytale and feed curiosity. There is enough to explore in the surrounding villages. We recommend taking the steam train. Great footpath and walking area’s nearby.

Nem kedvelték There is only one shower on site so I guess it will ask of guests to time their showers and as there wasn’t a table or baby change we had to get a little bit creative getting our 10 month old baby dressed but… an under bed storage box did do a great job for a bath and the lid with a towel on worked as a changing mat on the floor. But really there isn’t anything to dislike, just some things that would make life a tiny bit easier.

Kedvelték Location

Nem kedvelték The campsite facilities are unacceptable . To start, the ladies toilet were dirty the toilet seat was broken and did not sit on the toilet correctly it was obvious they weren’t cleaned on a regular basis. The shower cubicle was disgraceful there was a quite pungent smell of damp and again hadn’t been cleaned regularly there was a shower mat on the tray which was disgusting. Because of the above I declined to use the shower just as well we were only there for two nights. The chemical disposal point was horrific I opened the lid and saw it was half full and blocked I felt I was unable to use it. We won’t be returning
