Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked I had a great time. Solo car camped with my dog
It was peaceful. I chose where I wanted to pitch. Everyone was spaced out great.
Showers and toilets were clean.
Toilet waste disposal there, clean water, washing up areas, Big bins, a fridge freezer to use.
There were Duke of Edinburgh’s in a separate field so as not to disturb is which I thought was great.
I checked in and then never saw anyone again, didn’t feel watched etc.
loved it.
Really good price at £9 a night!
Really pleased and will defo be back

Disliked I didn’t stay longer!
Nothing to dislike. You get what you pay for and in my opinion you got more.
Thank you

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely quiet campsite with separate DOE field. The camping fields are well maintained. The facilities are excellent and clean. I especially like the charging lockers where you can charge devices for £2.50 for 24 hours. Showers are huge and hot. Large pot wash area with freezer for icepacks.

What customers say

This is a spacious and peaceful campsite offering excellent value. Reviewers praise the clean, well-maintained facilities, particularly the hot showers and washing-up areas. Its beautiful location is ideal for walking and exploring the Peak District. While basic, the site is well-equipped and friendly, with most guests highly recommending it and planning to return. Issues with noise from other campers and the cost of hot water are mentioned by a minority.

Liked Option of Large fields with plenty of space, facilities for washing, showering and toilets all tidy. We were lucky to have fantastic weather on our short stay.
Check in was easy and friendly.

Disliked Not such a dislike but a comment, if all showers are in use, the shower becomes weak.

Local attractions

Eating as much Bakewell pudding as you like is perfectly acceptable because of the abundance of hiking trails on which to burn off the calories (that’s your excuse and you’re sticking to it). The limestone valley of Lathkill Dale, just outside the site, is a very fine place for a walk and has some excellent birdwatching to be done along the way. Further walks await all over the Peak District National Park for all abilities. The relatively gentle paths of Mam Tor and the Ladybower Reservoir are about 40 minutes’ drive away; keen hikers in search of a challenge should aim for Kinder Scout, 50 minutes’ drive away, to climb up to the highest point in the park. A popular option for families (on foot or by bike) is the Monsal Trail (20 minutes' drive), meandering through nature reserves and underground tunnels to finish near Bakewell (for a restorative pudding perchance?). For a spot of history (or to shelter on a damp day), head to Chatsworth, a splendid estate on the banks of the Derwent river half an hour away.
