Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)Jun 2025

Site was spot on and we will be definitely going back later in the year. The site was clean and located in a prime spot in the Peaks with a pub just outside the site. What more could you ask for after a bike ride or post walk. The only down side for us was the pitch location as it was next to the main road

Excellent stay! Would definitely recommend

VW-Type Campervan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Pitch With GardenJun 2025

Would definitely stay again. Stayed on the garden pitch. Perfect for our baby and dog to have our own little space. Clean facilities and super friendly staff. Bonus having the horse box in the mornings (weekend) for breakfast.

great site

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)Jun 2025

Very nice and clean, with friendly staff. Lovely touch to have music playing in the amenities and to have the use of a fridge/freezer. Would have been nice to have had more waste disposal areas, including the use of recycling bins.

Site's response

Hi Christine, many thanks for your review, just touching on your point about recycling, we have 3 recycling points around the Campsite; top field by the gate, in the skip at the entrance and in our Meadow field, all these are sign posted and in our welcome brochure. It's highlighted where these points are and also that Peak Waste have a zero to landfill policy, so all waste is recycled. We hope to see you again at some point. Kind Regards Wayne and the Team

Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)May 2025

This is an excellent site. Brilliant location for travelling about (Thor's Cave is ten minutes away by car), exceptionally clean with great services, and perhaps above, all the staff are so friendly and helpful - people who genuinely care about you having a good time. The Manifold Pub at the entrance to the site is also a lovely spot for an evening social. Highly recommend this site, particularly with kids (it's nice and quiet and by 10pm all noise is kept to a minimum). The shop is well stocked, the showers and facilities are great and they have a communal fridge/freezer and dryers etc.

Site's response

Thanks Luke for your fantastic review, its always good to read the feedback as we work very hard to make every stay as memorable as possible. Look forward to welcoming you back soon, Kind Regards Wayne and the Team

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)May 2025

Excellent site with fantastic facilities and friendly staff. Toilet and showers plentiful and very clean. Shop well stocked and reasonably priced. Wi-fi reliable and reasonably quick. Great Pub across the road serving good food (best to book). We pitched on the top field at the brow of the hill which was a little windy.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)May 2025

All washing/drying machines require coins, but no change machine. Most tent pitches have a slope, unfriendly manager. Festival field is far from facilities so not recommended if you are less mobile or for small children. Other campers were lovely and friendly.

Site's response

Sorry to read you had a problematic stay, you only needed to pop in the onsite shop to get change for the washing Machine/Tumble dryers. 95% of our grass pitches are flat and as you can see from the many reviews we are a very family friendly site. We do not have a festival field, all our facilities are within a few minutes walk of all camping fields Kind Regards Wayne and the Team

Lovely site with great pub opposite

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches With GrassMay 2025

This is a great site, the toilets/showers/pot washing areas all really clean and plenty of room. Shop on site and a burger van visited one of the days. The pub couldn't be any closer and the food was lovely. Would advise booking. We did a couple of walks from the site from the Manifold Valley visitor centre which has a lovely cafe.

Many thanks Julie, we look forward to welcoming you back Kind Regards Wayne and the Team

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Meadow Field)May 2025

Highly recommended. Waking to the sound of the river burbling past was a delight, as were the site staff. Clean and well maintained facilities and a beautiful setting. Pub across the road was just the cherry on top! And the Sat evening pizza van was delicious. Only feedback/suggestion would be adding a secure bike lock-up, but that really is splitting hairs.

Site's response

Many thanks for your great review Rob, we are in a great setting. We do offer Bike storage in our barns, but maybe we need to get a secure bike lock-up guests can access themselves, we look forward to welcoming you back at some point. Kind Regards Wayne and the Team

Owners are lovely, friendly and helpful. Bathrooms are warm, modern and clean. Really nice option to have a communal fridge and freezer. Lovely sunset view especially from High Field. Clean covered washing up area with large amounts of sinks, with book exchange too. Be aware that bike hire is no longer available from this end of the Manifold trail.

Large Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)Apr 2025

Fantastic campsite with stunning views - ours was particularly wonderful from pitch 3 at the top of the site with uninterrupted views of the Peak District. Friendly, helpful staff who worked hard to maintain a lovely site. Additional extras like fire pits to hire and on site car charging made the trip even easier. And arguably, the best toilet and shower facilities we've ever had in a site. Really clean; modern; user-friendly and warm! Highly recommend booking here for access to the Peak District. 5*.

Medium Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Top Field)Apr 2025

What a lovely site! We stayed in the top field and the views are stunning. Nice pub at the end of the road and lots of walks and beautiful scenery around the area. Staff were friendly and helpful. Showers and toilets are spotless at all times. My only thing is if you're staying on the top field, some pitches are sloped so be aware of this if you need to level up.

Many thanks for your review. We look forward to welcoming you again at some point. Kind regards, Wayne and the team.

Great site and facilities in a nice location in a stunning setting. Quiet area with recommended scenic 6 mile (round trip) walk into Hartington from the site and walks from tea room close by. Lovely pub opposite that does nice food, albeit small and busy. We will be back. Both site and pub dog friendly.
