First ever caravan holiday

On arrival, we were welcomed by very friendly,helpful staff. They new we were newbies to caravanning. Came and checked on us while we set up. We couldn’t have picked a better site for our first outing. Clean,organised. Couldn’t fault any aspect. Obviously first visit to a club site or any site. Have to say if there is one better I would like to know. Ideally located with plenty of places to go by car or walking. Pub up the road, three horse shoes, serves good food and is dog friendly as the site is. In conclusion, if you are looking for somewhere in the Peak District look no further. You are guaranteed a warm welcome here.

Another lovely stay

We have stayed at this site several times before as we live close by. Lovely welcome by lovely friendly wardens and immaculate site dressed with baskets and pots of flowering plants. Can’t really comment on whether it is a good site for children except to say that they all seemed to be having a lovely time in the playground. Great walking from site around tittesworth reservoir and over the roaches. Towns pubs and shops close by. Several pubs within walking distance. We will be back.

Another lovely stay.

Lovely warm welcome from Phil and Steve on entering, Bev and Pauline added to the start of our short break with their welcoming greeting in the reception. We parked near the top of the site next to the farm with the cows in field. The site had ample choice for pitching up. The sites flowers at the entrance were beautiful and the site was well maintained. You could regularly see the team working on site. We walked down to the lake a couple of times which is easy to find and lovely trails for walking. Buxton is about 15 minutes drive from site and we’ll worth a visit. Knights Castle and the Winking Man are better value for money than the Three Horseshoes but yes you would need to go in the car. We were surprised at the quietness around the lake, on site and in Buxton, especially as in the middle of August everywhere should be busy, busy, busy. Thank you for making us welcome and we hope to see you again soon.

Good Site Stopover!

We stayed at Blackshaw Moor Caravan Club Site just one night on our northbound journey from Devon to York. Then again on our southbound journey York to Devon. The site is easy accessible and the staff were friendly and knowledgeable. On our northbound journey we stayed near the top of the site which is good for children with a great play area. On our southbound journey we stayed near the bottom site. As we were only using this site briefly for a night's stopover we didn't have time to explore the surrounding area. Thank you for a great stopover! :)

A lovely site

This site used to be our regular weekend site when we lived in the Midlands so it was a trip down memory lane for us. The site is lovely, the trees and bushes have grown a lot since our previous visits which add to the privacy on the spacious pitches. The facilities blocks are well maintained and are immaculate. The staff are friendly which adds to the great atmosphere on the site. We can also recommend the Community Bus if you want to travel in the local area, especially at the weekends when the service bus doesn't run.

Amazing little site with plenty to do roundabout.

We stayed for 3 nights having travelled up from the Cotswolds. As you pull up to check in you are greeted by the most amazing display of begonia baskets around the reception building-they were stunning. This love of flowers and planting carries on throughout the site with so many areas of greenery and flowers, it really is so pretty! Well done to the team who must work really hard to maintain them. We had a large pitch on the top level of the site quite close to the shower block. Pitch was slightly sloping but not so bad to need levellers. As you walk around the site there are photos of its previous life as homes for Polish soldiers who were were housed here while they fought alongside our own soldiers in WW2. There are still remains of the buildings they would have lived in, it really was fascinating. The site is very tranquil and pleasant. There are plenty of walks in the area, we walked up to Tittesworth Resevoir, along the road then onto the footpath to the visitor centre, quite an easy walk. Plenty to see here, lovely coffee shop and also a restaurant which overlooks the water. There is also a huge play area so plenty to keep children happy.There are walking trails, some short and some more challenging. We also walked to Ye Olde Rock Inn, quite a steep walk when you come off the main road but well worth it. The 3 Horseshoes Inn was lovely, with a beautiful high decking/garden area that looks out over the landscape to The Roaches-absolutely stunning views. We caught the 16 bus (which stops near The 3 Horseshoes) into Buxton. That was amazing day out, Buxton is beautiful! A must do is the Buxton Tram tour, a converted electric milk float that slowly takes you around the town. Our guide, Michael was amazing and it was worth every penny! Thoroughly enjoyed our time at this site and would consider visiting again.

Lovely Site

Really lovely site, stayed 2 nights with 2 young children who loved the park despite it being small. The facilities were clean. Loved the treasure trail too and the kids loved getting a prize upon completion. Wardens really friendly and gave advice on the local area. We drove to the reservoir as we felt it was too far to walk with 2 young children. Great few hours out, spent mostly on the huge park there! Also went to Hen Cloud. Struggled to find the main path up to it but got to the top eventually! We will definitely be back in the future as there's loads of other walks I'd like to try once the kids are a bit older. But we had a very relaxed 2 nights so I'd come back again just to relax.

Good advice for the Community bus

A big shout out to Bev, the warden who recommended the Community bus. We arrived on a Friday and were disappointed to find that there is no bus service over the weekend (we have a motorhome so like to bus or walk and leave the van on site). Bev mentioned the Moorlands Connect bus which can be booked by phone or on the app. We managed to get through on the phone just before they closed and were able to book to go into Leek on the Saturday and Buxton on the Sunday. The service was excellent. Although we couldn’t use our passes they entitled us to a £3.50p return fare each. They picked up/dropped off at the door or the nearby pub and we got texts to keep us updated. They also allow dogs free of charge. The service was so good we booked to go into Ashbourne on the Monday. We were speaking to the driver and he mentioned that they had funding for four years but it is so under used it may not be renewed. It was like a taxi service as we were the only people on it for every trip. All in all a fantastic service. We found the wardens very friendly, the site clean and the flower display at reception was beautiful.

Great place

This is a lovely site but quite close to a fairly busy road thus a tad noisy at times. This didn’t bother us at all and we would give this site a 5 star rating. Well maintained Toilet block perfect Staff wonderful 3 horse shoe pub within 5 minutes serving great food and also have a spa Nice walks nearby Internet access was good Over all, a fabulous place in a fabulous location

Great site

This is a great little site. We stayed over the Jubilee weekend, had a young child and a dog. The site itself is really well laid out and easy to get around. It isn't big but it has a nice dog walk around the outside. The children's play park is ideal. The toilets and the shower blocks were ideal, nothing special but they were nice and clean and there was never a queue. The grounds were looked after really well and it looked great. The pitches were fine, but the ground was very hard for pegging down the awning. The pitches seemed to be really irregular in size too, so the earlier you arrive the better chance you have of getting a larger pitch, but that's very minor. The staff were great throughout, they provided activity packs for the kids and put on a nice Jubilee celebration, they were really helpful also. A 5 minute walk from the site is a beautiful pub, well worth a visit. The only thing that made it 4 instead of a 5 was the location on the busy road, there are walks from the site but they are far with little one's, but thats the geography. The Roaches and the reservoir were only short drives, and they were well worth the visit. Overall a great site and one i would highly recommend.
