A perfect CL

Have just spent six perfect nights on this wonderful little CL. I know we were blessed with some superb Easter weather but even so this was for us the perfect CL. Clean and tidy, no extras, just your tap, rubbish bin and emptying point. Remember you are next to a working farm so there is some working noise but this just serves to remind you of where you are. It's good to have the gravel roadway and pitches as I imagine after some rain the grass would get very soft. This also helps to make this a good all year round site. TV reception was fine with a digital aerial. Phone signal on EE ok but no 3G. You would never be short of things to do in this area with numerous walks, fantastic cycling on the Monsal, Tissington and High Peak trails. Shopping in Bakewell or Buxton as well as country houses to explore. You can walk or cycle directly from the site including into Youlgreave and Bakewell. The Farmyard Inn in Youlgreave serves good food but it's worth booking if you visit on a Friday or Saturday as they do get busy. Lovely views all around the site and if you pitch parallel to the hedge your awning faces south and you get sunshine nearly all the day. We would thoroughly recommend this little CL and hopefully will be able to return again one day. Just one  word of caution when turning from the B5056 onto the road signposted to Harthill there is a very a steep incline and the road surface is poor so great care and a low gear are needed! I was glad I didn't meet anything coming the other way.
