Smile LBA Alternatives

I need to make several trips to Leeds/Bradford in the near future and looking at the charts there appears to be few options other than Leeds Bradford space port.

Can anybody advise the likely cost of a landing and say a weeks parking for a sub 1000kg steed?

Info on alternative fields would be much appreciated.

PS I don't need much more than about say 400M, usual short field caveats apply.

Thanks

Sherburn In Elmet is worth a visit if that's not too far. Breighton slightly further but an excellent place with some stunning resident aircraft.

Don't forget Crosland Moor, Huddersfield.
No hangarage but tie down OK.
Not to mention the scenery.
Details in Pooleys. Don't visit without a briefing from the operator.
Currently about 500m tarmac + 270m grass at the west end.
If landing uphill don't land short as the undershoot is "rugged", to put it mildly.
