The Blacksmiths Arms Certificated Location

The Blacksmiths Arms is a pub with a small Caravan and Motorhome Club CL in its grounds, at Kirkheaton on the eastern edge of Huddersfield in West Yorkshire. The camping side is compact, roughly five touring pitches and five for motorhomes, and it is aimed at self contained caravans and motorhomes rather than tents. There is a toilet on site, but no showers and no electric hook up, so bring your own facilities. What makes this one different is obvious the moment you arrive: the pub is right there, serving home cooked food and real ales, with WiFi in the bar and a warm welcome for dogs. That makes for a sociable, low effort stopover, with supper and a pint a few steps from the pitch. Kirkheaton village has shops within a mile, Huddersfield town centre and its station are a short drive, and the Colne and Holme valleys and the northern edge of the Peak District are all close for walking. Families and dogs are both welcome, though light sleepers should remember the pub setting can be lively. Booking at The Blacksmiths Arms is arranged directly and stays open to club members through the year, with the latest arrival at 9pm.
