Cowfield electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Loved our one night stay! - beautiful peaceful location, no road noise - beautifully kept field with a nice flat pitch for our camper van. Fact that you can have a campfire made it for us was such a lovely evening to sit out. Dogs also loved it! Basic facilities but you know that before you go. Only a Portaloo on site but it was kept nice and clean. Site was quiet so not a problem for our stay. Just make sure you have a very long hook up lead (says at least 14 metres) we had to go and buy an extension as ours wasn’t long enough but our fault as did not read the info properly and needed one anyway. Luckily Halfords is only five minutes away. Thinking of booking again for a night end of this week can’t wait to return! Thank you so much this site is a little gem!!
Disliked: Nothing

Electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Lovely campsite, dog friendly, quiet and well stocked amenities, although no shower and pop up toilet it's very well maintained. The owners are friendly and it's in a lovely area of the Peak Districts, really close to the start of the Tissington Trail.

Liked: Peaceful site. The site owner Ann was extremely helpful and very friendly. It is a basic site but anybody booking it and doesn’t know this needs to actually read what they’re booking. Can’t fault our stay at all, would highly recommend if you don’t require a proper toilet and shower. Ann informed us there was a “Swift” bus that stops just outside the campsite and we used this to go in to Ashbourne for the day. Very good tip! Lovely site again, would recommend

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: Nice location, flat pitches.
Disliked: For the price for a single camper the facilities were woeful, single portaloo and one stand tap.

From the manager: Hello
It was a very late booking and you arrived around 9.30pm on the Friday night and going dark and left early the next morning on your travels.
We only advertise a portaloo and no facilities so this obviously is not the site for you in the first place before you made the booking . Sorry we cannot please everybody but please read the options in future and removing the need to leave a negative review which does not help others making their decision. I expect your preferred choice was full when decided you needed somewhere late on Friday.
Lovely views.…

Cowfield electric grass touring pitch
Liked: Nice quiet site, close to Ashbourne bus route.
Toilet facilities were kept clean throughout the weekend.
Disliked: Shame about the small of Cannabis coming from the pitch of the person that was looking after the site. Particularly off putting.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: I have returned from my weekend away, and upon investigation, the person looking out for me, had moved pitches, after my correspondence had gone out to let people know I would not see them. We are a small family farm and not associated with this type of behaviour.
A lovely quiet calm site was just what we wanted.
