Very impressed with the Carsington Water site. If you have a family, this is an ideal site as it has a large and well-equipped play area. If, however, you're like us and are just a couple, there is a peaceful and very quiet section at the top of the site. The setting is spectacular with fantastic views over the Water, which is but a short walk away. There's plenty of excellent dog-walking areas and the facilities are clean, neat and well maintained. This was our second visit of the year and we're already booked in for a third stay. There's lots to do in the local area as well and the historic town of Ashbourne is only a few miles away. I would strongly recommend members booking this attractive site.
