I stayed at this CL some years ago, before the current owners took it over. I really like this sort of place: it’s a field behind a working farm, but with electricity points and water in the field. The new owners are delightful and friendly. (I left my new fleece in the field on my departure and they posted it out to me - thank you Lucy!) They have put in a new toilet and shower block, now located in the camping field. This was extremely clean and there was no shortage of hot water. The field isn’t huge, but I certainly didn’t find the pitches too small, as some people have commented. I really like Cowdale and I will go back. It’s peaceful and so close to so much wonderful countryside, and Buxton, which is just up the road.
