What customers say
A ripper family campsite, mates! Sprawling sites, top-notch loos, and super-friendly owners who know the area. There's a quiet zone for solo travellers too. Handy for Alton Towers, but a bit of road noise for some. Fire pits and picnic tables are a hit.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked Lovely quiet site and love how they separated families from adult only campers. We were a group of 16 with kids aged 10 -12 years old between us and they played football every evening with other campers and explored the adjoining field.
Clean facilities and we had a fire pit on a couple of nights as well.
The owners also got our friends car started as well, so a bonus!
6 mins drive from Alton Towers.
5 mins drive from a from a great chippy called Jim's Plaice in Waterhouses.
10 mins drive from Stepping Stones at Dovedale and IIam National Trust property.
