Great relaxing weekend

Well what can I say. This fabulous charming little site, ticked all the boxes for us. The views are to die for. We enjoyed a very peaceful relaxing three nights. Plenty of walking direct from the site. Beautiful walk along River Lathkill, to Monyash one way and Over Haddon the other direction, with great pubs at each location. We will definitely be back. Thank you for having us.  Ralph & Della

Great Site

We stayed 4 nights at this CL site which is perfectly located for walking along Lathkill Dale and to Bakewell. The site is well set out, quiet and we were welcomed on arrival. We would recommend this site.

Strongly Recommended

This is a wonderfully quiet site in a beautiful area: the owners take great pride in its maintenance. The confirmation email , however, is perhaps rather terse and could helpfully be reworded. There is a sharp right turn into the site but this will not present a problem to drivers who know their own outfits and there is plenty on space to manoeuvre. The owner lays down clear guidelines, made necessary I expect by the poor conduct of CAMC members in the past who have not behaved reasonably. We found the owners to be most helpful, friendly and up for a quick chat. We greatly enjoyed our stay on this site which is a great asset to the Club network and is a real gem.

Lovely quiet site

We stayed for a short break and found the site easily from the directions given. The views from the site are fabulous and it was peaceful when sitting around the van. The site is well maintained and clean and tidy. Easy access to lots of places to visit. Plenty of off road cycling and walks. Too many to chose from! Yes it is tight to get in and out of the field off the drive but not an issue if you are confident and take your time. Would highly recommend if you want a quiet site and use facilities in your van. We will definitely visit again.

Amazing little CL and a re-balanced review from the last two

We have been coming here for years. Its Picture perfect and everything a CL should be. The Terms that the owners welcome caravaners are clear and polite. And they run an extremely smart site. With reference to the last two acidic reviews, you do have to know how to drive an outfit and manoeuvre in anything other that a manicured Club site. There is plenty of room to get on site and exit but don't expect a large late arrivals park... Bio Security over the last few years is a real problem for farms and urban warriors have little inclination to understand let alone be asked to observe some local common sense. If you read the two negative reviews they share an odd membership name, in no way typical of the usual reviews. Both probably indicative of social media warriors..... If you want a delightful getaway with a virtually private Dale on your doorstep and a great pub or two within walking distance then its perfect. Hosts are lovely. Rod and Andrea Sproson

Rude, grumpy owners

Arriving early evening, we were surprised at the harsh right turn from narrow driveway into a gate for the site - had to turn in the farmyard. We returned from a day out with two cars & dropped my car, (friends staying nearby) for Mrs Marsden to be rude about us having friends in one car whilst we dropped one of, shouting ‘what don’t you understand, i said no visitors!!’ … what a way to meet your paying customers. Do not recommend. Will not return. Thankfully we go home tomorrow.

First and LAST

this could be a brilliant site if Mrs Marsdon could be bothered to welcome you on arrival but put a sign on the gate DO NOT go to the farm but phone this mobile no ( i had no phone signal ) I had been instructed by email to place my van with the rear right hand side in line with the marker pitch was so small when i did this my tow hitch was half way across the road (gravel track) had a loan of a phone to get some guidance and advise and got a reply of yes what do you want, after a short discussion when i refused to have my tow hitch half way across the only access track with a cone placed at the tow hitch point i was then told well you'll have to park it across the pitch tow hitch was on the grass in front and back end on the grass at the rear. no signs to let you know the location of the grey waste or the elsan point to me this owner wants your money a week before you arrive and once you have paid tough get on with it and don't bother them

True gem

One of the best cl's we've stayed on! Beautiful views, better hardstandings than the club site's, peace and tranquility, extremely well cared for which blends in to the surrounding landscape. Walkers/hikers paradise with access to lathkill Dale a short distance straight from the site which leads to many Beautiful villages ,we hiked over 30 miles to Monyash, Bakewell, Over Haddon and Youlgreave during our stay.Access to the site is not a problem with a little common sense and wouldn't consider it a problem at all!the lane leading to the site is fairly uneven etc but it's a countryside hideaway so wouldn't expect any other and definitely isn't a problem with care and attention. Absolutely nothing to fault we loved it!

Beautiful but access is not easy

It does what it says on the tin in lots of respects,beautiful scenery,easy access to lathkill dale and very quiet. The access when you get to the bottom of the lane is frankly not acceptable on a site that has supposedly gotten camc approval. Sharp,not wide enough for a caravan,turn into the gate on your right hand side and then you need to manoeuvre in and out of a field gate to get in. We’re relatively experienced but in the end we had to unhitch and turn van around. Same experience for a lorry driver who had arrived before us, not something you want to do after a long drive! No one arrived at any time during the week to greet us,toilet not working at all. Unfortunately the access issue means we won’t return which is a shame as with a little planning it could be resolved. Perhaps the club should be returning to some cls to ensure that they comply with the standards set. After all we members are paying for these facilities.
