Peace and Quiet guaranteed!

Pull up, pick a pitch and relax and enjoy the view! Just perfect for a few nights of complete relaxation! We were the only ones there but even if all 5 pitches were full it would still be lovely. There is a fresh water tap that motorhomes can get to... Show more

Proper CL

Excellent very quiet site. Beautiful views with lovely walks right out of the site. There are two water points which both work and have standard fittings on them, although I can see that if the pitches around them are occupied they could be difficult to access. We are here in... Show more

Winter weekend

What a great find this campsite was, great views , well kept and easy access. Ideal base for Millers Dale and Chee Dale, straight from the site. The site has hard standing which is wide enough for an awning as well and drains well, so not muddy even after the... Show more

Quiet and perfectly located site

We have stayed in a few times mainly in winter. Facilities are what you expect for a CL - can't comment on the water tap position as we always take onboard water. The site could do with a little TLC however we have only stayed in the winter so... Show more

Perfect Tranquility

What a perfect CL, amazing views, tranquil setting, peaceful.......perfect. Access through the gateway is tight, but by no means unachievable and is generally expected for these tranquil farm locations. The site is perfectly situated in Derbyshire countryside, with walks from the doorstep and in easy reach of Monsal Trail and more. The facilities... Show more

Gem of a Site!

When I looked at this site prior to booking, there were some negative reviews but luckily it didn't put us off because quite honestly I can't see what there is not to like about this site! The site is beautifully maintained with very well appointed water points, waste water disposal and... Show more

Stunning views

Stayed at this fantastic little site 1st week in August, the views are stunning. It’s a 15 minute walk down onto the monsal trail and chee valley. A 15 minute drive in either direction takes you to Buxton or Bakewell. If you’re feeling energetic there a a cracking little pub... Show more

Water Points require attention

This CL is situated on a hillside providing great views of the surrounding countryside. While there are two water points, only one of them is working, which is situated behind two of the hardstanding pitches. It could be very challenging for a motorhome to fill with water, if these pitches are... Show more

Disappointing for Motorhomes.

We booked this site for 3 nights and on arrival we could not fill the water tank of our motorhome. The only tap available did not have any fittings to take a hose as it was just an old fashioned brass tap. Also, this tap was situated in between... Show more
