I didn't expect much, but couldn't have expected better. I attended the site, in passing, just before my holiday and had the opportunity to speak to the owner(s) who were helpful, friendly and happy. I arrived in the afternoon, the site was getting busy but the owner was busy bustling around seeing to all of her guests and ensuring the site was operating efficiently. The facilities were clean at the start, clean throughout and clean at the end. There are two toilets and one shower (spotless in the men's but comment on the ladies) in each gender area with sinks, mirrors and waste bins. I couldn't fault it. No issues with hot water, cold water or lack of refuse facilities. I needed to speak to the owner a few times during my visit, but never to complain and found her accessible every time - even when she was walking her (absolutely beautiful) pack of dogs, she would say hi and ask if everything was OK. I have no qualms about recommending this site to anyone in the area and intend to return many times when coming back to the area (subject to availability).

A December overnighter

Booking was really easy. Facilities (toilet and shower) are fantastic. The rules for the field are great too. Currently the field is a bit like a quagmire after all the recent rainfall, meaning there are a few pitches available that aren't already flooded.

Peaceful camp

Good little campsite, easy to get to local areas for hikes and exploring. Local pubs and food places, one pub easy access by foot the rest I drove, but not far. Local town not far. The site is pretty flat and the conditions made for an easy pitch on wet mud! Would recommend for anyone exploring around the area. The toilet and shower area was fit for purpose. Had hot water which was needed on a cold trip.

Fantastic

This is such a lovely place to stay. The toilets were clean and showers are very nice. Although you feel as if you are pretty much in the middle of nowhere, if you need a shop there is lots locally and a big Tesco is only about a 10-15 drive away. The site was great, you can pitch anywhere and there was plenty of room. You have to park in the car park but they offer a wheelbarrow to help you move everything to the field which is great! We were a couple with a 14 yo and an 8 yo who we kept quiet. I got the impression it's a more relaxed, quiet place to camp, which suited us, but something to bare in mind if you want to 'party''! The staff were very friendly and welcoming and we would definitely camp there again!

Perfect rural retreat

This site is perfect for back-to-basic camping. It's ideally located for the Peak District and the local pub is a 15-minute walk away. Facilities are no frills, but very clean and the shower was lovely after a day in the peaks. The grass is kept a little longer here, so consider footwear needs for moving about the site. Torches are a must for after dark and two in the morning trips to the loo. Check-in and check-out is very relaxed. Wood is provided at a reasonable cost for campfires - we took our own fire pit and sat listening to the owls calling! We loved our stay here and hope it won't be long before we're back again.

Great, friendly campsite

Great back to basics site. Very generous pitches and a friendly and helpful host. Toilets were clean and the shower had plenty of hot water. Close enough to supermarkets for easy supply runs.

Good site and location

Decent space, clean toilets, with 2 showers (1 male and 1 female). Shops are a close drive and the nearby pubs are dog friendly. Parking can be a juggle but there is a good "overflow" for 20 cars in the entrance drive. The site says "Yes, dogs are welcome here provided they are kept on a lead whilst on site and supervised at all times." Yet for 2 days, a dog was loose and often unsupervised, became confrontational to other dogs, and nothing was done. It did make a few pitches uneasy.

Lovely spot for camping and to visit the Peak District

Smallish field on a farm with cows grazing in adjacent fields. Plenty of space to camp where you wish. Toilets, shower and washing-up area excellent. Fire pits are allowed with large bags of wood available if required. Only drawback is that vehicles have no access, so all equipment has to be toted from the car park which is not for the less-abled, so I wouldn't have been able to camp alone. However a wheelbarrow was available, so my daughter coped well. Nevertheless, it was a good choice for a stop-over and we would stay again. Highly recommend it.

Great little spot with good amenities

This is our third time coming back to camp here as a group of friends. We love how the site is kept, it's always clean and tidy, and that we can safely have a campfire, with the option for wood to be provided at the site too.

Lovely place
