Liked: Absolutely beautiful campsite! lovely polite owner, that was quick with answering any questions. Sweet knoll exceeded all my expectations, this campsite is a perfect escape for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with the great outdoors. This campsite is surrounded by beautiful hills offering stunning views in every direction. What truly sets this campsite apart is its peaceful ambiance. I can’t wait to return I miss it already!

Liked: Great views and convenient location

Disliked: Overcrowded field (it was bank holiday weekend in fairness) but then after we had set up another field was opened up at which point we couldn't be bothered to move.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Facilities were clean, everyone was friendly, lovely spot.

Disliked: When people are heading to use the facilities late at night/early morning, there was very little consideration for the tents they were passing. Experienced lots of torches and chatting as they went past the tent. Reminders in the facilities/on gates between fields would help this. Some groups were playing club music in the evening, which isn't the vibe of the pitch considering it's a family spot.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: The remote location was amazing the views are exactly what I wanted from the campsite. The staff are super friendly and helpful as we had a couple of issues with our tent and they were able to help us with a place to go to get it resolved. Really enjoyed out stay and will return again. Facilities are basic but its what we wanted.

Local attractions

Castleton (15 minutes’ drive) village is a very cute local spot. Its show caverns (including Peak Cavern, Treak Cliff Cavern and Blue John Cavern) have contributed to its fame, but the stone houses and views of Hope Valley and the High Peak are also ravishing. A walk up Mam Tor (15 minutes) is likely to please outdoorsy types. The five-mile route passes through heather moors on Kinder Scout and a reservoir before reaching the 517-metre hilltop in the High Peak. After your climb, you might decide that the Bakewell tarts and puddings of Bakewell (20 minutes) are the next natural course of action. The market town also has access to the Monsal Trail, a cycling route through old railway tunnels. Tuck into your sweet treats on the riverfront, a popular spot with other consumers of the famous tarts. There are some splendid walks around Chatsworth House (half an hour) should you crave more outdoorsy days out. Royal family members live in the house, so interested folks can book a tour to see some of the historic rooms (and the surrounding 105-acre garden and farmyard if they so wish).
