Misleading .... Very poor

I suppose this site is ok if you have a car to escape the place. NOT SUITABLE FOR MOTORHOMERS!! We booked this site to go on the cycle routes as described on the club website. The trails were 6 miles away, no good in a motorhome! Buses and trains are in Buxton town centre, but no buses from the site to the town, had to walk 45 min down through boggy, muddy forest, awful if it rained! If you have health problems don't think of going to the town!! No way you can walk it, you would have to call a taxi every day @ £6 one way is expensive. If you wanted to walk by the main road, you have to walk about 25 minutes up hill to get to the road. Mobile phone coverage was non existent, had to walk around to get a rubbish signal! If you want to watch TV take a aerial cable, about 15mtrs will be enough. Tv signal again is rubbish. All in all not a great site if you haven't got a car, and you would like to use your phone or TV. This was a holiday from hell to be honest for us. Would never go back and never recommend it to anyone. Don't waste £36 a night!!

I think your review is a bit unfair on the CMC.

You should have done better research before your visit, often the CMC recommend things to do that are over 5 miles away from site, they are directed at customers with transport readily available not people in motorhomes who do not want to drive of site

We have visited this site several times and love the walk into Buxton and have found it to be a lovely town with lots to do.  We never move our van from site once pitched 

The mobile phone signal is not a surprise when you consider the site is in the bottom of an old quarry 

The only point I agree with is the price is too high £36.00 per night is too expensive for any CMC in my opinion but they are all getting to expensive
