A week in Derbshire
Stayed here for a week at the beginning of September 2012. I was advised by the owner to arrive after 1pm which we duly did. However we could not pitch up as the owner Mrs Elliott does not believe in rushing people off, so we were provided with a cup of tea with and by Mrs Elliott in her front garden overlooking the beautioful Derbyshire hills. After about an hour we were invited to go onto the site and pick any position which we wanted, and by that I mean we were allowed to position the caravan at any angle we wanted. We chose a position with the main lounge window overlooking the countryside whilst others had parked sideways on.Extra cables were provided to ensure the electric reached. The site is sloping both ways and we required wheel blocks, some of which were supplied. The site is set well back from the road, which is onl;y a minor road anway, and has sheep and cattle on the farm. The only noise was from the farm vehicles.
The site is about 1 mile from Eyam, whichj is a beautiful village where they suffered from same Bubonic plague as London In 1665.Nearest pub about half a mile. Bulls head at Foolow. Steak night Tuesday, 2 rumps for £11.00.
It is close to Chatsworth ,Bakewell, Castleton, Hathersage, Hope, Edale, Baslow and Matlock. We had great weather which certainly helped and had a fantastic time. Would certainly return. Cost £11.00 night with EHU.
