Disliked: Nothing.

Liked: Great location close to Buxton. The toilet/washing facilities were very clean and modern. Lovely view of you can get a pitch at the top of the camping field.

Disliked: Camping field is on quite a slope! Be prepared to roll away in your sleep. Also the playground is next to the road in/off the site, not ideal for small kids.

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we are in the process of getting a new fence with a gate to make it more secure.

Liked: This site is a great location to do lots of beautiful walks and sightseeing. There are take aways and shops and cafes near by. I stayed in the non-electric camping field which seemed to have a newly built shower block, I can't fault the cleanliness of this area. The site is peaceful and really well kept. Beautiful views of the railway bridge and surrounding fields full of cows. I've not done much camping so I felt really safe here especially travelling alone.

Disliked: There were keypads on the toilet doors which felt a bit weird. When you're half asleep in the first morning and just need a wee it's annoying to have to go back to your tent and check the code. I've never known a site have this before. My friends were in a different field and the codes were different. Even from the normal loos to the children's changing area the codes were different so my friend had to remember two cldes. Also conflicting signs around the camp about dog fouling. One sign said there was CCTV and I'd be removed from site if my dog pooed. Another sign in a different field said clear up after your dog. I asked reception for clarification and it was sort of shrugged at, they doesn't matter if he pooped it was to keep static caravan owners happy, but also take him to the dog field and try not to let him poo at the same time. My dog ended up sitting in the car when I visited my friends in another field. On the last day I saw there were loads of dogs around that field so I let him sit outside with us. There are signs in the bathroom saying don't allow your dogs in the facilities. I travelled on my own so wasn't prepared to leave him outside or in the tent by himself. I wish it was made clear before I went there were some specific dog rules. It Didn't really feel like a dog friendly site. I took him in the shower block and he led on a towel on the seat whilst I showered, there wasn't a trace of him being there, which is more than I can say for some children who left grass everywhere one morning. All the staff I spoke with were really friendly. Although I will say I got speaking to a camping neighbour and she was outraged because she watched two male staff enter two of the tents in our field when the occupants were out. I asked if they went into my tent she said no, it just feels really wrong and inappropriate to do that. She was going to speak to reception about it and I also was but I left the next day so there didn't seem much point. The onsite shop is pretty basic and expensive. There is a farm shop also onsite which I didn't visit so there may be more in there. I had a nice relaxed time and I would recommend staying here if you don't have a dog and put a padlock on your tent.

From the manager: Thank you for you review and glad your enjoyed your stay at Lime Tree. We want to assure you that none of our staff would enter a customer's tent without permission. In this instance a customer asked the staff to take their tent down and dispose of it as it was leaking. We respect privacy and take these matters seriously, thank you for your concern.

Liked: Good clean facilities

Liked: We stayed in a pod as the weather can be changeable in the Peak District and I was right to - kept us safe and dry while a big storm passed over one night. Staying in a pod was great with the little ones as we didn’t have to keep them entertained while we tried to put up a tent. There’s a little park and you can see this from the pod - toilets and showers are not far either. Toilets and showers were in excellent condition. The staff were extremely helpful and accommodating whether it be with helping out with laundry queries or helping us to jump start the car when we had a flat battery! Buxton town centre is a 20-30 min walk away so it’s an ideal location. We got a click and collect order from Morrisons down the rd so that was ready for us when we arrived. Everyone was quiet and respectful - the campsite was quiet by 9pm every night. Perfect for families/ couples.

Disliked: Nothing! Would visit again. The slope up to the pod was a little slippery with moss so go carefully.

Liked: What a great camp site! We stayed on the camp site with no electric hook up, the first time we done camping with no electricity but it was great, the kids loved it 😊 The toilets and showers were so clean and warm, which was a nice surprise! There was cows on the field facing us which made it feel more like we was in the great outdoors (surprisingly no smell of cow poo). Nice places to go for walks near by too! Would definitely come back here again 😊

Disliked: The ground was on a little bit of a slant but wasn’t to bad

Liked: Stayed here for two nights with my son so we could do two mammoth cycles in Peak District. Excellent location with nearby Aldi and easy access into the remote Peaks. We were non electric camping so got to position on one of the nice terraces. I like that you have free choice where to pitch which meant we sussed out an area sufficiently peaceful for us. Toilet block is very new and clean, the shower water could be a bit warmer ideally. We had a game of pool in the games room for 50p which was good. Very friendly welcome. Not sure on walking without the need for a car but there is a bridleway I saw being used from the back of the farm shop on site.

Liked: Lovely campsite, lovely clean showers. Little play area plenty of room for tents.

Disliked: The field for the tents quite a hill. A challenge to camp on, cooking difficult due to the incline, plates etc slide down the table.
