Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked The new toilet block was clean, but along way for campers on the field at the bottom. A good location for Derby.

Disliked It's a very tired site & needs money spending on it, especially the road & hard standing pitches.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for taking the time to review your stay with us we welcome all feedback.

We are sorry that you were disappointed with your visit to us and will not be returning.

Please be reassured that most campers in the bottom field choose to go down there and are happy with the facilities, any guests with mobility issues are offered alternative pitches near to facilities.

There are plans for the site in the near future to improve the infrastructure.

Thank you again for your feedback we appreciate it.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked N/a

Disliked Pitch was awful should of been hard standing but was just mud

On arrival we missed the check in desk as I was reading the confirmation email to get the gate code and to check if we needed to check in as the initial email did not confirm this so we missed the check in shed which is also the same colour as other buildings so we wasn’t sure if that was toilet/washrooms etc so was a genuine miss but the lady who I assume is the owner was very rude to us shouting at us then stormed off about this which does not give a nice first impression as we had only just arrived. I appreciate that she apologised but this is not good customer service when this was a genuine miss. We considered just turning back to go home as this was not nice.
Pitch was awful as we paid for hard standing but this was not it was just mud

Local attractions

To the Peak! The Peak District National Park is but a short drive from Riddings Wood Holiday Park, and has a bit of what you fancy for all ages and inclinations. If you're in the area to hike, there are more Peak District trails than you can shake a (walking) stick at, from the shorter treks of seven or so miles around the upper Dove Valley and Pilsbury Castle, to long-distance paths like the Limestone Way (46 miles), the Derwent Valley Heritage Way (55 miles) or the Peak District parts of the Pennine Way, running for 268 miles from the northern Peak District to just inside the Scottish border. Climbers and cavers also delve into all things Peak: thousands of routes for all abilities are all over the park for climbers, including Burcen Edge for beginners and more hair-raising ascents like Debauchery and Mad Dogs and Englishmen for the severely experienced. If you're of a cavernous disposition, make your way to the village of Castleton and its four show caves, Blue John, the Peak, Treak Cliff and Speedwell Cavern with underground boat trip. Matlock Bath has a cable car to take adventurers to limestone caverns The Heights of Abraham, and Poole's Cavern near Buxton has vast caves to explore before an above-surface walk around Buxton Country Park. Other attractions like Chatsworth House and Gardens and the old Crich Tramway are to hand for the historically-minded, alongside old Peak District villages and market towns for tearooms, restaurants, family pubs and lots of shopping: try Buxton, Ashbourne and Bakewell to start you off. Back at Matlock Bath, let the kids go large at the rides and attractions of theme and play park Gullivers Kingdom for ages two to 13; the 600-acre Matlock Farm Park nearby should keep them busy for a bit too.
