Rowter Farm Campsite

Μου άρεσε This was an overnight stop on the way north. Beautiful location, stunning scenery. Trees around the edge of the field gave some welcome shade from the 32° heat! Perfect location for walking. Fields around campsite full of sheep, so if you don't like drifting off to sleep with noise of bleating sheep and lambs probably not for you, personally I loved it. Facilities were nice. £1 for 3 min shower, nice hot water.
I was concerned when we arrived as there were several groups of DoE youths. Needn't have worried they were extremely well behaved, and at 10 pm all was quiet.
I would certainly use this site again.

Δεν μου άρεσε Water in the shower didn't drain away very well, so standing in water. But, after the hottest day of the year, I can't say I minded too much.

Μου άρεσε Great back to basics on a working farm, flat field ideal for tents and the price is spot on. Close to Mam Tor and great walking loop down to Castleton and back.
If you are a glamper this place is not for you. We will be going back.
I like being able to park next to the tent and use it to shelter from the wind as we were in the middle of the field.

Μου άρεσε Great location

Δεν μου άρεσε The site was in my opinion way overbooked, the last time I stayed here they had another field open which made it easier for everyone to find a nice pitch.

The facilities were good so no complaints there.

I feel like staff should be checking what is going on more, there was a large group of men kicking footballs at people's cars and tents and throwing glass bottles around the field and nothing was done by members of staff.

A drunken man kicking tents around and shouting until 4am because he'd lost his dog meant that we didn't get any sleep at all. This went on for hours.

Previous stays on this campsite have been really nice but after everything going on last night, I won't be returning or recommending it to anybody else.

Μου άρεσε Can choose your own pitch. Easy check in at the farmhouse. Facilities are okay. Pot wash area, fridges, 1 shower per gender. Great location, local village 10 min drive, close to Mam tor and plenty of other walks nearby. Flat pitches.

Δεν μου άρεσε Quiet hour rules aren’t enforced. It is supposed quiet from 10pm onwards, as with most campsites, - this is not the case whatsoever.
First night, our neighbouring campers had music blaring until 1.30am, singing, obnoxiously loud talking, fire still going. They were an older couple and should have known better.
Second night, a group of young adults again music blaring, loud singing, until 2am. People being sick next to our tent. Balls and Frisbees hitting our car and tent. 1.30am they run around screaming and fall onto our tent.
Another person at 1.30am lost their dog for the 2nd time and was screaming and shouting all over the campsite.

Music alone would not have been an issue, it’s the other childish behaviour that ruins it. We got no sleep because of this.

It sounds like this occurs a lot reading the other reviews. There was no respect for other campers and rules don’t appear to be enforced.

Wouldn’t come here unless you’re fine with being up all night disrupted. We won’t be returning sadly as it’s a great location other than that.

Showers and toilets are a bit grubby but you are camping so it’s to be expected.

Μου άρεσε Nice big field. Great location for walks.
Peaceful place, just birds and sheep .

Δεν μου άρεσε Could do with a water pipe at least in the field. We were in a motorhome and couldn't take the vehicle into the yard to fill.

Μου άρεσε Location - lovely spot. No midges! Spacious field. Food van serving (limited) hot food.

Δεν μου άρεσε On this occasion I would say the facilities were over-booked. People naturally like to camp around the edge of a field but there wasn't enough room for that. And I don't think there were enough rest-rooms for the number of people. There was no signage from the road so I had to make assumption that camp site was located next to farm house. And finally, I was told to report to farm house on arrival but no answer.
