Marsh Farm Certificated Site

Marsh Farm Campsite is a Camping and Caravanning Club Certificated Site on a level grass field at Shepley, near Skelmanthorpe and Denby Dale in West Yorkshire. It is a small member site that takes tents, caravans, motorhomes and campervans, with a mix of electric and non-electric pitches in open rural surroundings. The location suits walkers, as the site sits close to the Pennine Way and is a short drive from the eastern Peak District. Holmfirth, the town made famous by Last of the Summer Wine, is about 10 to 20 minutes away, and Cannon Hall Farm near Barnsley is a similar drive, so there is plenty for families and children to do. Shepley village has shops and pubs within a short walk, and a bus stop just outside runs to Holmfirth, Huddersfield, Penistone, Wakefield and Denby Dale. One quirk sets it apart: the owner collects David Brown tractors, once built in nearby Meltham, and visitors can ask to see them. Dogs are welcome and there is a designated dog walk. Membership of the Camping and Caravanning Club is needed to book. The site is open all year, member pitch prices start from £15 a night, and stays are booked through the Club.
