delightful and convenient

We arrived for a short week end break and were not disappointed. Stunning views close the attractions of Derbyshire. Friendly informative owner.Level pitches. Well looked after site. Not much in walking distance so need a car or bike to get about. Basic perfect little CL site. Great value for money.

Beautiful views but that is all !

We arrived for a 3 night stay at this cl. On arrival we were the 4th van on the site. The views are stunning over the surrounding countryside and we were very happy with our pitch. However that’s where the good points stop. During our stay it became apparent that the other... Show more

Away from it all !

We pitched up and Mr Poole arrived to welcome us with suggestions of where to eat and where to visit. The location gives great views but is also open to gusty winds so peg your awning down well, luckily it gave way to excellent hot weather and we enjoyed sitting... Show more

What a view

Our pitch was well marked and had plenty of room for our long motorhome and borrowed car. The views from this site are long ranging and beautiful so make sure you position your van to make the most of them. We could see Bolsover Castle and Hardwick Hall... Show more

A fairly new CL site that is highly recommended. Fantastic views of mixed surroundings. Clean, tidy and convenient for what we wanted. Easy access and level site. Cant fault anything (except it was all booked up when we wanted to rebook on our return journey - not a bad complaint). Thanks

GREAT VALUE - New Peak dist. CL

This CL is very convenient being only 20 mins from M1 junction 29. Although, Chesterfield and Matlock are only 10 mins drive away, pensioners in particular will appreciate the X17 upmarket bus service. Bus stop just 300 yds away The service runs hourly between Matlock, Chesterfield and then limited stop... Show more
