What customers say
This is a very clean and well-maintained campsite with friendly and helpful staff. Visitors praised the excellent toilet and shower facilities, as well as the great play area for children. The location is considered good for exploring the surrounding Peak District, offering plenty of walks and nearby attractions. Some guests experienced issues with noisy traffic from the nearby main road and a number of tent pitches were described as being on a slope, causing some discomfort. WiFi and mobile signal are also noted as being poor.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked * Clean and well-maintained shower and toilet facilities: The washing facilities were consistently clean, which made a big difference to our stay.
* Hairdryer provided: It was a pleasant surprise to find hairdryers available, adding to the convenience.
* Great playground for kids: The children loved the playground, which kept them entertained and active.
* Plenty of hot water: The hot water supply for showers was consistently good and hot, which was much appreciated.
Disliked * Uneven pitches: Some of the grass pitches were quite uneven, making it a bit challenging to set up our tent/caravan comfortably.
* Pitches felt a little close together: The camping spaces felt a bit dense, and we would have preferred a bit more room between pitches for increased privacy.

After a dodgy start we had a great time.
Electric hardstanding touring caravan pitch
Liked Very lovely staff in the shop especially after our frazzled arrival having found the main route through Ashbourne was shut and we’d endured a long detour and then missed the turn for the campsite!
Allocated pitch next up our friends was a real plus. Super clean showers and toilets. Lots of green spaces to enjoy and no stuffy rules. We were left to enjoy our time with friends and family . Level pitches for the caravans , great recycling area and shop.
Disliked The tent faction of our friends and family disliked the loud Lorries early on Saturday morning , less troublesome on Sunday morning but still the occasional clatter from the road. The phone number for the site wasn’t correct in my email from Pitchup which didn’t help my stress when we missed the turn to the site on arrival and I tried to contact them for a precise road name rather than a post code.

Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked We had a great stay. The grounds are nice and mostly kept well. Clean toilet/shower block.
Disliked Food from the shop was very close to ‘best before’ date and the chocolate that I purchased was out of date and awful (didn’t realised until I had eaten some of it). The wood chipping on playground would gather and big clumps and make it difficult for my toddler to walk without falling on. There was also a number of lights flickering in the toilet block. Can hear lots of planes, trains and vehicles during the night.

Liked The play area was perfect for the kids, the toilet facilities were clean and the site itself was scenic and well maintained.

Electric grass tent pitch
Liked Shower room was very clean, shame about the push timer button for the showers. But very clean which counteracts that. Shop well stocked. Helpful staff. Very clean site.
Disliked Button timers for all the sinks and showers.
