What customers say
This campsite offers stunning Peak District views and a peaceful atmosphere. Visitors consistently praise the friendly and helpful owner, Stephanie, as well as the clean and well-maintained facilities, particularly the showers. Its location is ideal for walks to Castleton and Mam Tor. While generally well-regarded, some reviews mention a need for more toilets during busy periods and occasional noise from other campers.

Lovely place, but best to avoid busy times such as long weekends.
Non-electric grass campervan pitch
Liked - Lovely views if you choose the right spot for your tent.
- Scenic walking path leading to Mam Tor in about 90 minutes.
- Plenty of space for your tent, though the ground can be a bit sloped and you may find some dry sheep droppings on the grass.
- Quiet at night.
Disliked - Very crowded during the late summer long weekend, with long queues for toilets and showers.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked This campsite is great, nice big open fields which you can choose from. The site is really clean and well maintained.
Stephanie is fantastic, friendly, helpful and really kind.
The facilities are limited, but what they have are kept clean and well supplied.
Made good friends with one of the donkeys.
Stephanie told me of a route where I could walk from the site to Mam Tor, which was ideal!
Would absolutely recommend the site to others.
Disliked Some people took a long time in the shower, but that sometimes happens. It’s hardly the end of the world.

Excellent site with clean facilities. Would highly recommend.
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We stayed here for our first camping trip as a family and would highly recommend. The facilities were clean and well stocked with loo roll and fairy liquid etc. The site was relatively quiet and our little girl loved looking at the nearby farm animals.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked This campsite is spacious and peaceful. The host was very accommodating. This was our second visit — we first came in 2023, and since then there have been many great improvements.
More toilets have been added, and there is now a shower as well. The views are beautiful, and there are animals around which make the experience even more enjoyable.
Our only suggestion would be to consider separating the male and female toilets for added convenience. Overall, a wonderful stay — we’ll definitely be back!
