It was great to see the owner Ed driving around in his jeep during the afternoon checking on people. Signs in the shower block say he will take no nonsense from anyone who is spoiling it for others, but he was very friendly and helpful. We heard him chatting to first time campers nearby and he was lovely in taking the time to explain some of the basics to them.
It’s the sort of site we love, ie it’s not overly manicured or full of expensive frills that we don’t really need when we’re away in our campervan.

Tradueix (A través del Traductor de Google)Em va agradar: Pitch layout is fabulous. Loved the natural pitch separation. Stunning views. Very helpful and friendly farmer who is actively present and available through the day.
No em va agradar: Toilets/showers would benefit from a tart up but clean and has everything you need

Tradueix (A través del Traductor de Google)Em va agradar: Perfect location....very close to Dovedale, there is toilet and showers
No em va agradar: All good
Thank you for the great review!
Future campers. We are 2 miles from Dovedale/The Stepping Stones, as the crow flies. There are various walks to be found on OS maps. Taking into consideration the terrain, river and roads the walk is ap aprox 8 miles. 3 - 4 hour walk. Hill runners like to use us a a start point for their morning run!
Thanks
Ed & Jane
Excellent site lovely staff

Hi Chloe,
Thank you for your positive review.
We are so pleased that all of your 'additional' needs were catered for (regarding your toddlers). We aim to keep the camping meadow peaceful, safe and quiet.
Although the farm house & campsite is remote, there is full access to support if needed as the camping meadow is next to the farm house & yard and there is always assistance if required.
Ed & Jane

Tradueix (A través del Traductor de Google)Em va agradar: The location, the view. Pub within about a mile through quiet country lanes and through field public walk.
No em va agradar: There was a large and rowdy group in multiple tents at the top of the field but we were not too concerned as the site had a 10.30pm quiet policy. Shame they carried on making noise until the early hours! Managed a frustrating terrible sleep, not the best start to the weekend.
We thought the owners were great at first when we mentioned it the next morning. They said so sorry, we will refund the nights stay and our policy is no groups, so we will kick them off (which we thought was a strong response).
Later they back tracked and said the group had apologised and promised to be quiet the following night (which they ended up being). However when we were sitting in the evening after a lovely days hike, one of the group came over asking our neighbours if their name was 'Mike' (my name) and when they said no, she said oh somebody called Mike complained about us last night blah blah blah. Couldn't really believe my ears that the owner had let slip/told them, not only that someone complained but also had identified who! So unprofessional, could not believe it.
The fact they haven't bothered to refund us as per their offer, even though we asked about it after a few days after, has made me warn others here else would have been a great review. Shame as the farmer seemed nice.
Their dog policy is also clear on pitchup, but the group, even on the 2nd night had a big bull breed dog running about off lead. If you have a small breed, on the lead as per the policy, it can make you on edge. Just a bit weird for me as the farmer was rolling around in his truck fairly regular.
Small shower and toilet block, ok if you go in less busy times.
We are so sorry Mike that you have had to resort to this poor review and have had to be so public. The camper I spoke to regarding the group noise on the previous night was extremely apologetic and insisted on being able to stay and wanted to apologise to the unhappy camper. I am not aware of how your name would have been passed on but she did insist on second guessing who it was and really wanted to apologise. We were only aware that this was group once they arrived as they all booked individually.
We were not aware of the dog situation either. We will be extra vigilant.
We have posted signs up around the site warning campers that the quiet rule must be adhered to. Any noisy campers will be asked to leave with immediate affect and will be allowed to collect their gear in the morning.
We are also having a steward in a caravan onsite on busy weekends when we have a max of 20 tents on the 7 acre hillside campsite (with suitable levels for pitching) Hopefully this will prevent this happening again.
As general rule out campers are mature couples with dogs and we try to maintain a high standard regarding behaviour and consideration for other campers. WE ARE SO DISAPOINTED THAT YOU HAD THIS EXPERIENCE. I will contact you direct regarding the refund that was discussed.
Most of our campers have a wow experience due to the location, view, small number of tents, well supported by Ed the farmer who is checking for risk and behaviour issues. We allow cars on site, next to tents and also allow fire pits which all need extra vigilance.
Lovely campsite with great view. Host …
