Occupying a superb location in the heart of West Yorkshire, Oakland Hill Park Home Estate combines easy access to beautiful countryside and a wide range of leisure opportunities, with excellent road links to major towns, cities and shopping centres.

The magnificent scenery and rolling landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales and Peak District National Parks are both less than an hour’s drive away. The historic City of York with its award-winning attractions, stunning cathedral, ghost walks and distinctive shops, is even closer to hand.

Just a mile or two off the A1, Fairburn Ings Nature Reserve, characterised by its picturesque lake, miles of pleasant country walks, and rich diversity of birds and other wildlife is a place you will want to visit time and time again. Fishing and numerous golf courses are also available locally.

If you’re young at heart or looking for somewhere exciting to take the grandchildren, it has to be XSCAPE. This is the ultimate entertainment and leisure complex with real snow slopes, rock climbing walls, skatepark, multiplex cinema, ten pin bowling, plus bars, restaurants and urban-lifestyle shops.

If you don’t have a car, or prefer to leave it behind, the towns of Castleford, Knottingley, Pontefract and Ferrybridge can all be reached quickly and easily via a bus service, which stops outside the Estate. They offer a good selection of shops, pubs and restaurants, bingo and theatre, plus a doctor’s surgery and local hospital.

And if you love to hunt down a bargain, the occasional shopping trip to Freeport Castleford is essential. Here you will find more than 80 shops offering huge discounts off high street prices, plus numerous cafés and restaurants, a beauty salon and children’s play area.
