So where do I begin! Im normally loathe to give 5 stars as it really has to be something special and in this case, it really is! I was in the area for an event so I was staying in one of the cosy half moon cabins, on the rear of the property in the campsite. I originally planned on eating elsewhere but I decided I want to have a drink with my food so I came back and I am SO SO glad I did. Main meal very well priced Chicken Korma with poppadom and the option or rice and chips in one! Absolutely brilliant!! The portion was sublime and the sauce was absolutely incredible! The coconut wasnt overwhelming and it had a tangy sweetness I have never had in a korma before that worked beautifully!! Desert was white chocolate cheesecake with cream. The slice was fantastic! And loads of cream to lather to your hearts content, also a part of it. Or the option of ice cream or custard. The white chocolate seemed more vanilla than white chocolate but that really is not a disappointment by any stretch!! These two portions and my pint filled me up completely and my compliments to the chef as I was informed by the landlord the next morning, all home made!!!! I would travel the 5 hours all over just to have that meal again!! Not only was the food brilliant but the facilities were lovely. Its a cosy warm area where unlike most pub villages you walk into, this one you get no staring down and the front of house staff were so lovely and attentive! I paid 20 for the meal but gave an extra 5 with a promise of spreading the word. The room I stayed in was absolutely sublime. I payed 50 in total for a room that had a double bed and tv. Tea and coffee next to the bed and even a wardrobe for the long term stay. The shower room with a good working toilet and shower that was lovely and delightful! If I have any complaints its that may be the towels were a bit stiff but being someone who uses an airer as opposed to a tumble dryer, I know its an unwanted side effect. The location was gorgeous! The river walks are stunning and even with the campsite, there was no disruptions for me in any way shape or form. Its not far from Goole so conversely not far from the M62. Only 5 miles from that main town, and a little shop in the next town if you should need it, this spot is ideal and I am already planning another trip to take a fellow trip friend along to try this food!! I travelled solo and the cabin was perfect for that, even a couple would be very comfortable. The campsite has some good facilities available and it looked very popular with families. I was also most pleased that the manager/landlord was always nearby with his contact number in the room as well. This spot really was absolutely stupendous, even on my own the lack of wifi in the cabin was quite peaceful if anything but I knew if required, wifi is available in the pub area. Will definitely be back so a big BIG thank you to the half moon team!!!

We camped at the Half Moon Inn in August. A fantastic friendly campsite, the owner was very helpful as we packed the tent away in a monsoon and he gave us as much time as we needed. A lovely pub and delicious food.

Visited on Friday 25th August to find the bar busy and a birthday celebration and only one young girl managing 2 sides of the bar. Bless her, she kept apologising for the wait but it was clearly not her fault. After about 10 minutes I was finally served and with a big apology. We had booked a Sunday dinner for the weekend but after a disgusting experience on the associated campsite and lack of interest from management we did not want to waste any more money on this business. Not the fault of the staff at this pub but 'taking the pee' springs to mind.

Stayed on campsite at the back of the pub. Excellent food to be had in the pub and the Sunday carvery superb. However....disappointed in the campsite. The toilets were porta cabin ones in need of a refurb and the showers although very nice were £1 for 2 mins. Not realistic. By the time you'd adjusted the water temp the time had run out!!!! Realistically £3 for a shower and £32 pn. to camp very expensive. Would we visit again? Don't think so.Walkability: Area was very flat, ideal for cyclists. Nothing except a nature reserve for walkers along the river. Nearest shop 2 mls away.

Food was lovely, evening meal and Sunday carvery reasonably priced, campsite could do with some weeding and care, toilets ok but not really up to standard cleanliness, showers too expensive already paying £32 a night so £3 for shower makes it expensive, plus it's blush button, would eat again but not stay.

What a great campsite ! We came here with a group of 30+ friends and family and had a fantastic time ? I would thoroughly recommend the food at the pub -right next door - especially the Sunday carvery !! We live in Wakefield and have discussed going back just for the carvery !! The campsite does what it says on the tin - great siting, electric and ablutions (pay as you go showers, but so what!) Andy the owner should be so proud of this site, he also serves Sunday dinner - so is a busy bloke , but always on hand if anyone had any issues with longer electric cables etc etc. If you want a nice place to camp with friends and family, with a huge area for children to play and just be kids… THIS IS THE PLACE !???

Was really looking forward to eating here after seeing the good reviews however our experience was nothing short of tragic. Went for the nachos as a starter and instead i was presented with a single layer of tortillas that had been nuked in the microwave with flavourless mozzarella cheese and a few bacon strips tossed on the top; no sour cream/ guacamole just a solitary brown looking miniature side dish of jarred salsa. Lift up the first layer of nachos and they’re all completely dry no cheese nothing. After being presented with that I had little hope for the main. Chips that were burnt and a deep brown/orange colour look like they have been refried 27 times. The beef burger had the most unpleasant strange flavour. Again with nuked mozzarella cheese driest concoction ive ever had the misfortune of putting into my mouth. Avoid this place !!!

Absolutely brilliant Sunday lunch , great choice of meats and a vast selection of vegetables. I would say its the best roast pork I've ever had . Friendly atmosphere and great staff.
Enjoyed our 2 nights camping with electric here. The people was nice and I would recommend this this place.If we ever need to camp in this area we will chose Half moon again. Thank you

Brilliant little campsite for tents and Caravans. Craig the owner is welcoming and always on hand to help when needed. The staff at the Half Moon Inn pub are brilliant and even though I didn't sample the food, the chef, Dave, looks like he makes some mean food. Facilities are spot on for what you need. All in all great little place to stay and will be definitely going again.

Booked for 2 nights as a peaceful getaway from Hull, nearby city. This place did not disappoint! The rooms where great, double bed, TV, ensuite shower and toilet. Has small decking area with 2 chairs and had complimentary tea and coffee in the room. The pub and restaurant was a lovely friendly local pub, the food is exquisite, have to have the rib eye steak it was to die for, the chef is obviously very talented because all dishes we had were perfect! The staff are so helpful and polite and cannot do enough to help you. The village in which the bar and accommodation is situated is also very scenic and very trusting, a real sense of community, home owners selling merchandise with honesty box for payment to be collected. The trip was very much enjoyed and I suspect myself and my fiancée will return at some point. Thanks guys!Food & drinks: Food is absolutely 5star! Has to have won awards!! I expected standard bistro pub food, however I was very wrong, food was seasoned and cooked to perfection!!

We used to have an annual camping trip to this place but unfortunately because of the incompetence of the leaseholder (Andy) we cancelled this years weekend trip. He totally messed up the pod bookings and our members found him abrupt over the phone. There would have been well over 50 of us going this year and we would have booked for the carvery as usual. Manners cost nothing but in this case it has cost you plenty. Note to the owner….replace Mr arrogant (Andy).
