10 days in Derbyshire
Staff at site excellent. Pitches nicely arranged. Perhaps the entrance is not as pretty as some sites. Not very many flowers etc. We saw the entrance at Castleford - beautiful display of flowers etc.
Toilet block (only one), was cleaned well but really the water coming out of the showers was very very slow. My wife went into one shower and the water was just trickling out. One of the best things about the Caravan Club sites is the quality of the toilet/bathroom facilities. This one was a bit of a let down. We spoke to one of the wardens and was told that the toilet block was waiting for upgrading but this would not be done until a new lease had been negotiated for the site. This has been ongoing for three years. That's all very well but in the meantime it is the Club members who are suffering. Luckily, the weather was great so this problem did not spoil our holiday, we loves the area.
Another little niggle is the lack of mobile phone reception.
Finally, the fish and chips on Saturday night from the visiting van were superb, but is it not possible for the men selling to work quicker, many people were waiting over half an hour even though the queue was only maybe 6 or 7.
Despite all this we would still go back to this site although we are sorely tempted to stay at the Castleford site instead.
