Enjoyable stay.

We only stayed for two nights to break the journey home. The toilet block is in need of refurbishment, very dated but clean. Don't turn up if there are others backing up in the designated arrivals area as you will be ordered to move by an officious panicking lady warden. Where to I'm not sure, but I did offer to "beam up" if it would help. Not the best introduction. Otherwise a quiet site with an easy walk over the river into town. Great for visiting the area.

Definitely be going back!

This was our first time ever in our new motor home so we picked somewhere relatively close to try everything out. We didn't expect to get so lucky, lovely site, friendly wardens and while yes the water pressure isn't great and the showers/toilets need an up grade so what!! We were late arriving due to the sat nav (don't worry we will NEVER follow it again when driving a rather large and ungainly motor home!) but still they got us a pitch with no issues. Its quiet as its down in the bowl of the old quarry which is amazing. Buxton is about 30mins walk away (and yes its not a bad walk on the way there - on the way back be aware its very much uphill). Had a lovely meal in No Thirteen which was lush and a few pints in the Sun Inn. On the whole a great first trip at a lovely site. We will be back.

A lovely week

I have just had a lovely week at Buxton, a good location for visiting the local attractions and shopping at the Trafford centre ( only when it rains ). There are good local pubs, must go to the Cat and Fiddle a great pub up the hill to Macc. The wardens were very friendly and the site was in first class condition, it is true the shower block is dated but perfectly okay. The site is very well laid out in an old quarry and the vans are spread out with larger than normal pitches - I don't like vans in neat rows. Good for dogs, walking and cycling. You won't be disappointed.

First but certainly not last visit

This is a great site, with very friendly wardens who work continually to make everyones holiday a pleasurable time. As stated before the amenities block is a little tired but is totally acceptable and immaculately kept. The site will definitely appeal to people who enjoy walking as there are some lovely walks directly from the site. Will definitely be returning next year.

Compact but perfectly formed

Set in an old quarry, within a country park, this is an excellent site. The pitches are quite tight to get into but well worth it. The walk into the beautiful town of Buxton is well worth it, albeit a little longer than stated. Recommend making a note of the local taxi for the return to camp leg. Would recommend to others and go back again.

Very nice site

I must admit this is one of our favourite sites and has now been improved by the fish and chip van on a Saturday night.

POOR SHOWER'S

we spent 4 nights here 9-11 th September and had a great time. The Wardens were very helpful and friendly , managed to see the British Cycle Race which passed through, lovely site lots to see & do . Will need to return to see more, the only downside we observed was the pressure of water in the shower's was very poor, be can this be rectified ?.

Weekend away

what can I say a perfect site, clean, tidy and excellent facilities, first time for many years I have used a club site and this one has restored my faith! the wardens were just lovely friendly, welcoming and spoke whenever you saw them, a friendly good morning goes such a long way. chips on Saturdays, Pasties on Friday I think everything you could want, just sorry we only had two days, we cannot wait to come back and stay longer and have good explore. There is nothing to fault this site in our opinion. Thank you and see you soon
