About this site

Aberford Certified Site is a small, family-run certificated caravan and camping site on a working smallholding in the village of Aberford, just east of Leeds. The site sits within easy reach of the A1(M) and A642, which makes it a handy overnight stop as well as a quiet base for exploring Leeds, York, Wetherby and the wider Yorkshire countryside. Being a certificated location it is deliberately small, with room for around five caravans or motorhomes and a further ten tents, so pitches are roomy and the atmosphere stays calm. Grass pitches come with 6 amp electric hook-up, and facilities include a water supply, chemical disposal, waste water and bins, battery charging, toilets and a coin-operated shower. What gives the place its character is the smallholding itself: children can meet the resident pygmy goats and the donkeys, Max and Bonny, and there is a small playground on site. It suits families and couples who want a friendly, low-key stopover close to the motorway, rather than anyone looking for a large park with a bar, shop or entertainment. Reviewers consistently praise the welcome, the animals and the tidy facilities. Book directly with the site by phone or email, and confirm current pitch prices and opening dates when you enquire, as this is a small operation run around the owners.

Aberford Certified Site

Good to know

Where is Aberford Certified Site?
Aberford Certified Site is in the village of Aberford, just east of Leeds in West Yorkshire, close to the A1(M) and A642. The location makes it an easy overnight halt for anyone travelling the A1, and a quiet base for visiting Leeds, Wetherby, York and the surrounding countryside.
Is it suitable for tents as well as caravans?
Yes, as a certificated location the site takes both, with space for roughly five caravans or motorhomes and about ten tents. Numbers are kept low on purpose, so pitches are generous and the site stays peaceful. Grass pitches include 6 amp electric hook-up for those who need power.
Are there facilities for children?
Yes, the smallholding is a genuine draw for families, with resident pygmy goats and two donkeys, Max and Bonny, plus a small playground on site. It is a hands-on, animal-friendly stop rather than a big holiday park, so children get space and interest without crowds or organised entertainment.
Does the site have electric hook-up and showers?
Yes, grass pitches come with 6 amp electric hook-up, and the amenities include a water supply, chemical disposal point, waste water, bins and battery charging. There is a toilet and a coin-operated shower on site. Facilities are simple and well kept rather than extensive, in keeping with a small certificated location.
How do I book and how much does it cost?
Book directly with the site by phone or email rather than through a large booking engine. Current pitch prices and opening dates are confirmed when you enquire, as this is a small, owner-run operation. We could not verify a published nightly rate, so contact the site for up to date 2026 costs.
