First Weekend of the Year

Arrived on a very cold Friday afternoon to find several caravans waiting at the end of the road for the 1pm deadline. However, the backlog on the road was a traffic hazard so we decided to risk the wrath of the wardens and drive in early. From the main road to the site entrance is about 1/2 mile and for the life of me I don't understand why we are asked to wait out at the main road and cause a traffic hazard. Anyway having arrived at the reception 15minutes early we waited quietly in the car waiting for the dreaded hour. After a few minutes a very friendly warden arrived at my window and politely reminded me we had arrived early - no doubt you have all heard this before! However, after I mentioned about the traffic everything was fine and we were invited to sign in ten minutes early. The site is quite spacious and as you would expect everything was spick and span, clean and tidy. The wardens were all very friendly and helpful and overall we had a nice first weekend away of he year. Obviously, there is plenty to do nearby, Chatsworth, Buxton, Bakewell, etc. etc. Being winter all the trees were bear and it will be nice to visit again when the trees are all in leaf. Another joy was all the wildlife, ducks, pheasants, squirrels, etc. Bird food was on sale at the reception and we thoroughly enjoyed parting with a few quid to give them a winter meal. Will we be back? Sure will and we're already looking forward to it.
