Longfield Farm

Líbí se The area is great for walks and having farm land is gives a sense of fresh air and the Peak district direct routes to Monyash village and Buxton town

Nelíbí se Cockrels and chickens crowing all night and had no sleep,, also another aroma that wouldnt go away from the waste bins over flowing
Would stay again but at the top of the site so that the sounds cant be heard from 4am

Od správce: Thank you for your feedback.

We are sorry that the overflowing bins affected your stay. We are currently looking into providing larger bins and ways of managing campers’ waste more effectively. Unfortunately, the bins are regularly used for much more than normal household camping waste, with broken equipment, boxes and other bulky items being left in them. This quickly fills the available space and is something we are increasingly having to deal with. Unfortunately, a lack of consideration from some campers makes this particularly difficult to manage.

Regarding the cats, I completely agree that cats climbing into tents and begging while food is being prepared is unacceptable. Unfortunately, they are not our cats, and we actively discourage campers from engaging with or feeding them. However, some campers enjoy having the cats around and actively encourage them, which makes it extremely difficult to keep them away from the camping areas. We will continue to discourage this behaviour where we can.

Regarding the fire at the neighbouring farm, this was a controlled fire and was attended by the fire brigade. Unfortunately, we cannot be held responsible for activities taking place on neighbouring land. While we appreciate that smoke and ash blowing across your camping equipment was unpleasant, the fire was outside our control and was dealt with by the appropriate authorities.

We do take genuine feedback seriously and are continually looking at ways to improve the site. However, there are certain things outside our control, and we also rely on campers showing a reasonable level of respect and consideration for the site and other guests

Líbí se A great location, very central to so many beautiful spots at a great price, you really can't argue! The facilities are basic which the cost reflects, but lovely flat field, electric hook ups and beautiful surroundings, really pleased to have found this place and everything we needed.

Nelíbí se No hot water to wash up
Cockerells were no stop all day and night
Bins overflowing and not emptied

Líbí se Location, toilet and shower (very basic)

Nelíbí se No organisation of where people pitched, some very close to each other which can lead to noise disturbance and also be a fire hazard.
Toilet and shower a useful addition but no way of cleaning after use left shower tray covered in grass and leaves.
I appreciate this sit is run as part of a charitable trust but some closer attraction to the pitching of Tents and cleaning of facilities would I believe encourage more repeat visits.

Od správce: Thank you for your feedback.

Firstly, just to correct one point — we are not a charitable trust. I’m not sure where that information has come from, but it is completely incorrect.

We do have numbered pitches, and guests are expected to use their allocated pitch sensibly and considerately. We are a small campsite, and it simply isn’t practical or financially viable to have a warden walking around the site monitoring where every person puts their tent or how they behave.

We provide the pitches and the facilities; what we cannot provide is common sense.

If guests choose to pitch too close to others, make excessive noise or ignore basic consideration for their neighbours, that is unfortunately down to the individuals involved. We cannot be expected to supervise adults throughout their stay.

The same applies to the toilet and shower facilities. Yes, we provide them and yes, we expect them to be kept clean. But if somebody walks into a shower covered in grass and leaves and then leaves the mess behind, that is a guest responsibility, not a failure of the campsite. We cannot realistically clean the shower after every single person uses it.

We are always happy to take genuine constructive criticism on board and improve things where improvements are reasonably possible. However, there also has to be a degree of responsibility from the people staying here.

We are a small, independently run campsite — not a fully staffed holiday park with wardens and cleaners following guests around. We rely on people behaving responsibly, respecting other campers and leaving shared facilities as they would expect to find them.

We’re sorry that your experience wasn’t what you hoped for, but some of the issues raised are ultimately caused by the behaviour and lack of consideration of individual guests, rather than the lack of facilities or organisation on our part.

We appreciate you taking the time to provide feedback and will continue to do what we reasonably can to make the site enjoyable for everyone

Líbí se Left to do it our own way ..... good big pitches lots of space ....... loved it .
