Friendly welcome
Facilities basic but clean.
Great phone signal
Disliked Field is one big hill so finding a flat enough pitch is tricky. Good job we had blocks for the van :)
This is stayed in the information though.

Lovely site with clean and well-maintained facilities.
Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Beautiful views and owner friendly when we checked in and over the phone. Toilets and showers basic but very clean, always stocked, and didn't have paid timers which was great. Sponges and washing up liquid were also available which was very handy as we'd forgotten ours! It's up a steep hill but within walking distance of Whatstandwell Station, so easy to travel along the Peak line to other lovely places for walks, food, etc.
Disliked The field is on a incline and, as we arrived late in the evening, most of the more level spaces were gone, but I'd not say it was anything to 'dislike', it would have been no trouble at all had we planned better!

Liked Absolutely beautiful site. Peaceful and calm with fabulous views. I enjoyed a quick stroll around Crich and had a great dinner from the excellent fish and chip shop! Also a useful supermarket.
The facilities at Hankin Farm are very clean, a friendly welcome awaits. I will be back to enjoy the stunning views.

From the manager: Thank you for your recommendation, we'll definitely look to install some hand rails in the shower for next season.

Non-electric grass pitch
Liked Easy access, good views, pleasant owner, pretty quiet & lots of space.
Only slight noise from working farm.
Average facilities but ok & value for money.
Disliked 4 miles to nearest shops & pubs & 4 lads kicking football to each other making lots of noise.
