Peaceful and Great for Walks

The location is very peaceful, being well away from any main roads. There are 5 clearly defined and numbered pitches each served by a EHU. The grass is well cut and everything is well kept and managed without being over done. Ideally suited to couples and those who enjoy walking; there are a number of nice walks directly off site into Lathkill Dale and the walk along the river to Haddon Grove is rewarded by a visit to the Lathkill Hotel where the beer garden has amazing views. A little noise could be heard in the evening from the commercial site nearby but nothing particularly intrusive. We stayed on pitch 5 (near the telegraph pole) which I think has the best position - sun on the sitting out side of the caravan long into the evening. What's bad? The access into the CL field from the farm drive is quite a tight right hand turn and many units will not do it in one. There is, however ample room to draw past it, reverse a little to get the angle and all fine. On leaving,same solution and no problems, just don't try to do it in one with a long unit (ours is 24ft). The owners keep themselves pretty much to themselves and issue a phone number should there be an issue. Payment is via an honesty box on the WC. I found this to be a perfectly acceptable arrangement. We had a great stay, although on our final night a 6th unit came on and parked next to us. I don't know if he booked in advance (I suspect so as advance booking clearly marked in handbook and on website). Other than that it is a great CL for peace, quiet and walks.
