Crossgate Farm Campsite

Em va agradar That it had toilet and shower facilities a little bar and cafe serving pizzas on a night you could hire a wood burner and wood for £35 there was a lake n woods to take a walk there was horses pigs chicken goats and peacocks which you pet , feed and water there was a tap for drinking water n to fill your bottles a place to wash your pots most of the staff was very friendly and helpful my car would start this morning so a lady came to jump start my car with a jump pack they also had afew games for kids n adults if you wanted to play

No em va agradar There as was loads of midgits on a night and first thing in a morning lost count on how many times we got bitten bins was over flowers nagging the toilets n rubbish on the toilet/bathroom floor but other than that I can’t complain

Del gerent: 1, I never scream in anybodies face
2, neither do I point, I have no need to.
3, the bales weigh 600 kilos if one slipped it would crush them, suffocate them or cause serious injury. Maybe I was more concerned for your child's welfare than they are
4, the child I told off was with an adult male and the adult said he was with him and watching him.
5, no children had any reason to be in that field its not part of the camping field.

Em va agradar The position of the site looking over the reservoir and close to good walks

No em va agradar The cafe been closed

Em va agradar Toilets were clean , baby changing table with some spare nappys nice touch, the kids loved the animal pens by the toilet block. Lots of space to pitch and you can chose where you like. Nice view of the water and hills from top field and not too uneven.

No em va agradar Signage said to pay at the cow shed and check in but closed walked round farm then told to go to house door, lady didnt check us in as such just asked if i was giving her right amount and closed door, felt very odd. Pitch up said open July to sept for the cafe/bar but its only weekends , had i of known i wouldn't have booked midweek. We also had a very loud group of teens walking up and down the site shouting till the early hours so decided to only stay 1 night despite paying for two.

Em va agradar There was nothing I liked about this campsite.

No em va agradar Site was busy & noisy. Facilities poorly maintained and up a steep hill some distance from the field. Cafe/bar was closed from Sun 5pm to Thurs, despite it being peak season. Intermittent smell of sewage/cow dung? Site is on one of the main flight paths for Manchester airport so planes flying over constantly. Altogether not a pleasant stay.

Del gerent: The campsite was busy and noisy, because it is peak season as you mentioned.
It's a farm first and foremost, so possibly the pigs or goats, the camping is a diversification, maybe you would be better suited to Butlins or a more commercial campsite that suites your needs.
And yes we are on the flight pat to Manchester airport but if you had of let us know I would have had a word with the control tower and got the planes diverted for your stay.

Em va agradar Brilliant facilities and camp site.

Em va agradar ✅ Facilities (loos, showers) superb and seemed to be constantly cleaned.
✅ Bar fabulous. Pizza was great and staff were so lovely.
✅ Organisation fab.
✅ Location beautiful.
✅ Adorable animals on-site.
✅ Everyone seemed very friendly!

No em va agradar Nothing! I see a few people addressing the following things, so I’d like to add my thoughts.

Sloped field - Yeah, flat is always better, but I feel like if you just sleep with your head upright and your feet downhill it’s absolutely fine. No points lost for me.

Volume after dark - Guys, it’s a large site, catering for couples, families and friends. Of course there’s going to be a bit of chatter on a Friday/Saturday night. However even saying that, it wasn’t bad at all! Especially as I had packed my earplugs, which I believe are an essential camping item anyway.

Em va agradar Lovely location, the on site food is a great addition.

No em va agradar Given the price of a pitch, paying for the showers seems excessive. Maybe a shower token per night per person, with the option to buy more?
