How much!

Yes, this is a very nice clean site in a great location. My only real concern is the direction pricing seems to be taking on camping sites in general. I always felt that camping/caravaning should be an accessible recreation for all, at affordable rates. And I know there are cheaper sites/CL's etc. But I just feel that £45 per night for two adults - £50 with an awning is the wrong direction. I also know we have a choice, but just thought I'd mention it. Regards Simon

Great campsite

Great campsite in a good location for walking. Plenty of pubs in Castleton although it was very busy at the weekend. Castleton was generally quiet but it seemed like there were several coach parties that had arrived at the weekend and the top of Mam Tor was like Bournemouth beach on a sunny summers day. The campsite was quiet during the week but did fill up on Friday evening only to empty out on Tuesday. The site is well laid out and the facilities are kept very clean. The whole site was very clean, the staff obviously worked hard to keep the site that way. Couple of mildly negative points: only 3 male showers which we felt were barely adequate given the size of the site; toilets cleaned starting at 10am which is about the time people would be setting out for the day and would like a last visit to the facilities before leaving. All in all a very good site and we would return if in that area.

Gary, Alison & Bernie are absolute stars.

Firstly what a gem of a site, 10 minute walk into Castleton with lots of great pubs, unfortunately the weather was pants so Guinness and sausage and mash it was. We visited 4th to 6th August, Castleton is a great site, well set out, large pitches and spotless facilities. We are new to the caravan scene and just about everything that could go wrong (caused by us) did. Anyway step in Gary and the team. Yes we didn’t lock our jockey wheel unhitching the van and the whole thing hit the floor, Gary appeared like the shopkeeper in Mr Benn (you can guess our age), asked if he saw what we had done, he just laughed “we heard it, I knew”. At the same time we also managed to break the snap cord……… Anyway with help and a fair amount of polite ribbing, we got it all sorted. Each time they walked past they checked in just to make sure we hadn’t done anything else stupid. Great team (even though they were just holiday cover), great site and a great weekend, despite the best efforts of the Great British Weather. 😁

Beautiful location

Great site on edge of Castleton village. Well maintained, very clean and importantly a drying room for that Peak District weather. Good walking from the site itself.

Perfection

This is the 4th visit to this site and we love it. It’s calm and peaceful and close to the centre of Castleton. The pubs are good and the quaintness of Castleton is magical. We’ll be back again soon!

Castleton CS - perfect

Wir waren auf der Rückreise von Wales und hatten eigentlich nur vor, näher an der Fähre nach Hull zu sein. Wir waren überwältigt von der Herzlichkeit und Hilfsbereitschaft, die uns entgegengebracht wurde. Ein sprachliches Missverständnis, dass wir bei der Buchung verursachten, wurde innerhalb von Minuten unproblematisch behoben. Allen Mitarbeitern zollen wir ein großes Lob und entbieten unseren Respekt für ihr unermüdliches Schaffen für den CS, den Club und allen Clubmitgliedern. Der CS verfügt über großzügig bemessene Stellflächen. Die sanitären Einrichtungen entsprechen modernstem Standard. Nicht zu vergessen ist die Nähe zu den beiden Orten Castleton und Hope. Rundum: ein CS, der Beachtung verdient. Danke für alles!

Will return.

This was our first stay and we will definitely be back. As some others have said the road can be quite busy but our pitch was farthest from the road and the noise did not trouble us. Location is excellent for Castleton and some lovely local walks. Great choice of pubs and food in the village, and the fish and chip van on site on Saturday evening was an added bonus. Friendly and helpful welcome from site staff.

Lovely Area and Close to Town

This was only our second stay at a CAMC site and the cleanliness and condition of the facilities were excellent, as expected. Easy walk in to town which is great for food and drink (all more expensive than where I live). The surrounding area is lovely, especially if you're a hillwalker like me.

Brilliant Stay , 10 years since our last visit, will be returning sooner

2 brilliant stays at Castleton recently. A bright and welcoming flower display as you draw up to the reception to be greeted by a smiling warden.A Well run and a friendly site looked after by the hard working wardens for whom nothing was to much trouble. Good facilities in a lovely area. Great walks nearby from short strolls to long hikes. 7 pubs and 2 restaurants in the village, for those who require them. Top of the lot was the Ye Olde Nags Head for great food and service. Didn’t get to sample the Italian Restaurant, something for next time. A busy, well stocked Spar and Watsons Farm shop in Hope to provide you with all the necessities and more. Cafe Adventurer there to for lovely light meals and drinks. We would like to have tried the Curry Cabin in the village too. Back again next year.

Lovely location but.......

We stayed here for one night in mid-May as part of our Peak District tour. It was very busy and we only had the choice of 2 white pitches. We parked up quickly without hooking up/ getting water etc. and walked into Castleton town. It is a nice little town but it was lunchtime in a Wednesday so be aware that most businesses close for the afternoon. The prettiest areas are off the main streets. We got back to the site to discover that the back half of our pitch was covered in loads of cigarette ends! Pretty unpleasant in these Covid times. No pitch checks between 12 and 1pm? The road noise was really intrusive too so we decided to move. The Warden's hut was close so we found a blue pitch free (cheaper than what we had paid for but away from the road and clean!) Once we had found a new pitch we were happy so would return here despite the initial disappointment.
