Ill be back soon

I was so impressed by this site. It's location is set high above the Derwent Valley and offers fantastic views. It had been a drizzly day so in the evening this view was looking down onto a cloud covered Belper, stunning. Facilities blocks were kept impeccably clean, as were the grounds in general. The staff on duty were probably the kindest and mozt friendly we have come across. So much to do within a few miles radius, but maybe like us, you will enjoy the peace, charm and tranquillity of the site so much, you wont want to venture too far!

What pub?

Site is everything others have said, compliments to the wardens who are charming and helpful. But don't be misled by the write up. The local pub may be half a country mile, and down a very steep hill, and they don't sell meals. That said, the pub has a nice atmosphere and the beer is great.

A gem of a site located in an ideal location for touring the peaks.a very clean and smart site with spotless facilities very welcoming wardens on arrival and always stopped to talk during thier busy day to ask what we had been upto and suggestions of places to go with the kids.local pub the spanker was welcoming and we had a good sunday lunch and a few pints one night . No play park for little ones but dont let that put you off as we kept ours entertained and plenty to do nearby.

May Bank holiday rest

Stayed here for the recent bank holiday 25th May. We'vebeenhere before and only this time have we been able to appreciatethe site. Apart from being parked near to children (somewhat noisey) this is a lovely park. Beautiful views and in a lovely location.. Belper is a good walk away but we came with extra transport this time which made access to the town easy although my husband pointed out that there is a bus stop outside the club entrance... The staff are always on hand and the toilets and showers are beautiful and clean. We would recommend this site to everyone...

Lovely site but dog walk much too small

Have stayed at this lovely site a few times and thoroughly enjoyed it. We Always have a service pitch but have never pitched right next to the bathrooms before, we won't be doing that again as too noisy, not sure why but was even noisy during the night. Won't be having service pitch 35 again. The views are stunning and supermarkets very close by.

tv reception excellent and mobile phone coverage excellent.

Shame about the dog walk !

This is an excellent site which is kept very tidy and up to the usual club site standards. The warden staff are very friendly and helpful. I found the pitches were rather close together considering the cost. The main reason i selected this site was the apparent provision of a dog walk unfortuately this turned out to be a very small area at the lower part of the site surrounded by private property - certainly not what i would describe as a dog walk. To find somewhere off the site means walking down the busy road (no pavement) to get to a public footpath about a mile away. Great shame as morning dog walks are essential and so for this reason i won't be returning.

Another fab site

Just spent 3 nights here, the wardens Angie & Les were very helpful, when we arrived they said that as we had a larger van they told us which pitches were best for us, we pitched on no:48 wow what a view of the valley ( this is a service pitch), the facilities were very clean & tidy, I couldn't really give top marks for Good For Families as we don't have children, but from what I saw there isn't a play area for them, so the children were whizzing round on scooters, but we're we where pitched on the top just before the road goes down to the lower level pitches I saw children whizzing down the slope, which I thought was quite dangerous as you couldn't see if any vehicles were coming, other than that we had a wonderful time.

Weekend Break

Just arrived back from a lovely break at The Firs, new wardens this year and what a pleasure to meet them Les and Angie. Very friendly and helpful wardens who always have time to have a chat and make you feel really welcome. The site and facilities are spotless and are a credit to Les and Angie. We have stayed here several times as it is only an hour from home and can honestly say that this year it feels a different site. Be back soon

Weekend break

We have just visited this site for a 2 night stay not too far from home. Spotless facilities, and well laid out. Dog walk is small but adequate. The only reason we did not rate this site 10/10 is because having no children, and not seeing many there, I can't rate that area. Also, when we go there again, we will aim to go further into the site as we were backing the road. All in all we liked this site.
