New Mills Marina is a great site. Close to plenty of interesting places to visit, there’s no need to use your car at all if you’re keen cyclists or walkers. Our arrival was swift, and we chose pitch 2 of the 5 pitches. 3 and 5 were already occupied. The EHU is close to each pitch and the water supply isn’t one of those annoying push down types that take an eternity to fill your aquaroll. There isn’t an awful lot of room between the pitches, and if you are seeking privacy then perhaps this isn’t right for you The only negative we found was the chemical disposal point. It is situated between pitches 2 and 3. It’s not only used by the CL but also the users of the marina. As it was incredibly warm over the bank holiday we had windows and roof vents open, which meant every time someone emptied their canister, we were treated to the smell. We visited a couple of local pubs, the micro pub The Beer Shed on the high street is fabulous for real ale lovers. There is also a brewery at the marina, open during the day for sales of bottles and mini kegs. The Indian restaurant, “Simply Indian” is also excellent, and they deliver to the marina. At £19.50 it’s a tad more expensive than the average CL however we really enjoyed our stay and would definitely return. There are very clean toilets, showers and a laundry, as well gas and other essentials available from the marina’s office. New Mills is an undiscovered gem in the High Peak but well worth a visit!
