Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Lovely accommodating staff, the views were nice and the fields were well kept.
Clean toilets.
Loved the availability of fire pits and wood, saves taking one as there’s limited space in the car.
Feels very safe with a gated entrance also.
Great location, close to Dovedale, Ashbourne, Alton towers, Illam park.
Disliked Some basic food availability would be helpful,

Lovely site but too busy / bigger than expected
Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Nice view and good toilet, shower, washing up area. Wardens lovely and do a great job keeping everything clean and tidy.
Disliked Too busy. Advertised as small site but had 80/90 pitches and too close together. Freezer was so full it didn’t work properly. A fridge would have been really helpful too. Area to charge phones etc would be useful. There were also a lot of dogs and some howling through the night which was annoying but we couldn’t figure out whether they were on site or on a farm next door or something.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Everything. The friendly staff, great views, spacious pitches (although our first camp, so nothing to compare to), location (rural, with Aldi, The Range, Mountain Warehouse, Halfords 6 minute drive away). The clean toilet/shower and dish washing areas. Enough space for kids to play ball games (carefully not to hit cars/tents), fly kites etc...

Brilliant friendly and well kept campsite!
Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We loved our stay at Common End Farm! We had a really friendly welcome from the owners on arrival, and were provided with all of the key information. The site itself was well kept and had ample facilities. It was also very dog friendly with plenty of space to walk the pups.
The pitch was flat and a great size. The free roaming chickens were quite comical and certainly something different!
We had no problems with noise and our fellow campers seemed a friendly bunch!
The area itself is beautiful and there is plenty to see and do.
Disliked Nothing.

Really loved our stay at Common End farm and would definitely return.
Anonymous Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Facilities were all very clean and well maintained. The camping field was lovely, good condition and large pitches which were well marked out. Plenty of space in the middle of the field for kids (and us) to play games. Staff were very friendly and helpful and we could rent a fire pit. Felt a very welcoming, friendly and well run site in general.
Disliked Being on a main road means road noise isn't ideal but unavoidable and not too bad.

Lovely chilled site, everything a family neededs
Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Really lovely sites, toilets and showers clean and plenty for the number of guests. Site not too big but plenty of room for the kids to play, chilled feel to the place. Was 12 minutes from Alton towers, an aldi, and M&S about 10 minutes away and the village of Ashbourne was really nice too
Disliked If i was being really picky the pitch sizes were on the small size compared to other places but still good

Lovely first time camping
Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Very clean and accessible toilets and shower block, the floor can get slippy but it was very clean. Onsite tuck shops for snacks, Aldi 7 minutes drive away, very secure location, friendly staff, and lovely walks near by. Pitch was a good size, 6amp electric hook up.
Disliked The walk to the toilets as we were the other side of the field, but it wasn’t too bad.
Another tent had dogs that were very volatile and were not on a lead and at 1 point their dog ran across the field barking and snarling ready to attack until their owner shouted them back, this was not the campsites issue but the owners of this dog should have them on the lead as they did this twice to myself and someone else’s dog.

Anonymous Electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Nice pitch. Facilities were fine for the £30 per night for an electric grass pitch. As normal it’s about how clean the customers are!!!
10 min walk to pub which good.
Disliked No WiFi difficult to receive messages and phone calls.
Need a car to get to Ashbourne and Aldi
