Liked: Fabulous little site. We were on our own being so early in season. Owners and manager couldn't have been more lovely. It is a working farm and is perfect without an over abundance of facilities. You have all you need with the tranquility to match. Will be returning

Liked: The site was kept immaculate, the staff were very friendly and helpful, and the animals were kept to an amazing standard. We especially liked the piglets. We stay a week and could happily of stayed longer will definitely visit again.
Disliked: English weather although I don't hold the site accountable for this. Even so paths were sturdy and site was clean.

Liked: Great welcome on arrival everything clearly explained. Excellent pitch even given extra lead as weather meant we had to pitch up on the hard standing and our lead too short Beautiful grounds with lovely woods and cattle close by. Super clean toilets and showers

From the manager: Der! Maybe you should only come when the sun is shining We are a CL site on a farm! It is October and in October it rains!!!!!! With a review such as this I see you have ticked would visit again. Could not have been that bad. I hate CRAP reviews such as these which affects our overall ratings You had nothing positive to say. Please never and I mean, never, come back to either of my farms. You are not welcome. Again I would reiterate why if you were not happy did you not say to the owner or administrator. You can tell from this review how angry I am. I know who exactly you are. perhaps you should invest in better all round the year weather equipment. This is certainly not a place for you to visit again, and if you intend recommending us to friends it would be best you dont mention that they know you to me. A bit of help maybe you should get yourselves a weather app so yo can determine the weather before you set out, especially in the Autumn, Winter and Spring months. When it is likely to rain and be cold. Norman Coles Roundoak and Kingsoak farms

From the manager: David,Thank you for taking time to place a review. !0 out of 10 is only acceptable We are a farm normally farms are down a lanes We have a road closure through Leeds village at present I rather fear you were taken around a long way to avoid the road closure. Delay at the gate is a bit pathetic. We have a gated entrance for security. That's what people like about Roundoak The security! If you weren't happy why did you not say something during your visit. We are a working farm, my wife and I are in our seventies, we maybe were attending our animals. We are short staff due to holidays and weekends, added to which both my wife and I were very unwell and isolating as we proved positive for covid. I really dislike reviews like this as there was little constructive to say yet it affects our score rating. We work very hard to share this special place. Maybe you need to check your maps on future journeys and stick to motorways and A roads, Norman Coles PS By the way you will be pleased to note we are feeling a little better and may have been able to run faster to the gate if you came today.

Liked: I would like to say a big thank you to the team . We are first time campers and Guy greeted us and informed us very well . Loved his tour and information about the animals . The owner Norman was so helpful even got me some menus for his own home . Nothing was to much trouble . Toilet and shower area very clean you could smell the bleach from the cleaning. Very good size pitches. We had a visit from my brother and his disabled wife who’s scooter got grounded on the stones and again Norman and Ruth were there to help . His daughters are also so friendly. They are starting to do wedding and we’re setting up for an event on Sunday but on Saturday evening they were preparing the woodland area and invited us to have a drink .Anyone that cannot see how good and helpful this team are need to think about what they are getting. They have so many plans long term and we would like to wish them all the best in everything. We will see you very soon. Mark &Nora
Disliked: People that have nothing better than to complain just for the attention

From the manager: Hey I really like you! Helpful is not what I am normally noted for. Please let everybody know when you come again.My sanitary duties keeping the toilets and showers clean seem to be getting better. If you live with Ruth my wife you dare not leave anything dirty. Joking apart Glad you had a good stay. Maybe we need to get some wrangler 4x4 tyres on that scooter. Next time you come I will sort it! Best wishes from all at Roundoak Farm Norman and Ruth Coles
