Bradford Road, WF2 0QS, Carr Gate
Been here?
This wide, well-lit roadside parking area is a quiet overnight base beside the M1, with houses on one side and fields on the other. Nearby are public footpaths, bins, a cycle lane and a garden centre with a café. Background road noise is present, and the road becomes busier from around 5.30 in the morning.

We stayed for one night. There are busy roads nearby but we weren't disturbed by them. In the morning there were a couple of learner drivers having lessons. Two other vans were parked nearby.
Perfect for what it is. You know what you're getting from a spot next to a motorway - some noise in the background. But as you're near major northern cities, it's a great base. I've used it multiple times and never been alone, even in winter there's usually one or two others here.
Very uneven and noisy because of the main road. The place itself is quiet.Translating
Great stopover. Quiet wide road. We parked here as Malt Shovel pub down the road had let cars onto the motorhome pitches even though we had booked an overnight stop. Their loss. Will stop in this here again when in the area.
Great stop after a long journey. Lovely wide road, houses set back on one side and fields on the other. Well lit.
Really quiet residential area but very wide roads with loads of parking. Well lit. Easy to access from the M1. 15 mins from Leeds.
