Walks straight from campsite. Iwners opened shop as and when people needed it. Lovely views and peaceful site.

Disliked People not clearing their pitches of small bits of litter! Not the owners fault but sgame there was some litter floating about.

Liked I want to try keep positive. This is a lovely site its location is gorgeous and its an amazing location for walks, cycling and trips out to Bakewell and Buxton. We visited Easter weekend for a busy site it was very quiet. We stay in a caravan but couldn't help notice because of the large open spaces there was plenty room to sprawl out. There is also the added bonus of onsite food vans. We didn't use them as they did seem quite expensive. There is great potential for this site!

Disliked On a more negative the facilities on this site are poor for its size they don't seem to handle the number of people on the site for a busy weekend. The electric hookups are 6amp which is not a lot! We found we tripped the power numerous times we seem to be unable to power more than one high power item at a time. For example if you have the heating on you can't use a kettle! Next the water pressure was shocking! It seem to take an age to fill an aqua roll and this seem to have a negative impact on the showers. On one morning there was no hot water at all in the showers. Lastly when we went to use the Chemical point it was clearly full and over flowing. I appreciate this is a working farm however some of the hardstands sit next to a cow shed. They mucked the shed out late at night and the smell behind the shed could become pungent! Our other party had a hard stand above the shed and it was far less noticeable. So i recommend avoiding pitching behind the shed!

From the manager: Thanks very much for your review and for staying with us over the Easter weekend — we’re really pleased to hear you enjoyed the setting, space, and peaceful atmosphere, even during a busy period. It’s great to know the location and access to walks around Bakewell and Buxton made your stay a good one
We do really appreciate your feedback on the facilities, especially over a peak weekend when the site is at its busiest. We’re currently in the middle of a major upgrade, including a brand-new electric supply which will be fully operational within the next month. This will significantly improve the reliability and capacity of our hookups across the site.

We’re also relocating and improving parts of the site layout, including moving some areas further away from the farm buildings to enhance the overall guest experience.

In the meantime, our hookups are 6 amp, which are designed for lighter use, and we recommend using appliances one at a time to avoid tripping — we’ll make sure this is clearer for guests before arrival.

Regarding the hot water, we did experience a temporary boiler fault on the Sunday morning which caused a short interruption. This was reset within around 30 minutes and service was restored quickly, but we appreciate this would have been frustrating at the time and we’re keeping a close eye on the system.

We’re also sorry to hear the water pressure didn’t meet your expectations. Feedback from many guests has been very positive, but we are already in the process of upgrading to a new pumped system ahead of the May bank holiday, which will ensure consistently strong pressure across the site going forward.

The chemical disposal point is checked regularly, but we’ll increase monitoring during busy periods to ensure it remains in good order.

As a working farm, there are times when essential jobs like mucking out need to be carried out, but we do try to be mindful of timings and guest experience wherever possible.

Thanks again for your comments — it’s really helpful feedback as we continue to improve, and we do hope to welcome you back in the future.

Liked Its a nice site with views ect, however we wouldn’t stop again but it seemed a great place for walkers to explore the area.

Disliked Communicate wasn’t very good and nothing for kids to do, however that’s my fault for not looking into the site more. Also the men’s toilets were grim but think that’s more of the holiday makers being disrespectful for other people using them 😫
