What customers say
This adults-only spot has super spacious, private sites with water/electric, often hedged. Perfect for Peak District walks. Nearby pubs & lakeside cafe get rave reviews. Downside: no on-site washrooms, and some say it needs a spruce-up & better signs.

Great quiet stop for the self contained
Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked The pitches at this site are amazing. Unusually large with hard standing, a large grassed area and high hedges making them feel very secluded. Each pitch has an electric hook up and a water tap. Most are fairly level. We did use ramps but could have got away without them.
Great location with walks directly on site around the fishery.
It was very quiet with only a couple of other campers.
Adults only but dogs are allowed on leads. There are no facilities for dogs.
There are no facilities on site so you need to be self contained. No showers, toilets, washing up area or grey waste disposal. This is made clear when booking. There is an Elsan point which looks quite new.
Joanne was very helpful and responsive to messages.
Disliked Not really a dislike - just a comment for the owners.
It wouldn’t take much to turn this from a good site to an excellent site. The bin situation was confusing. Lots of bins in one place, but nothing labelled for recycling.
A grey waste disposal point would lengthen the amount of time people can stay.
The map on site doesn’t make clear where it’s ok to go. Signs which had fallen down appeared to ask walkers to not go beyond certain points, but when we enquired it was ok to walk along the rough road.
Obviously the addition of toilets - which there are adjacent to the site but not for campers use - would also increase the popularity of the place. We liked it though and would come again for a day or two.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked We love this site. It’s clean and well maintained with water and electric on enclosed pitches.
It’s in walking distance to a very friendly village with two excellent pubs/restaurants which is soon too be three and a great cafe by the fishing lakes. All dog friendly.

Not for those with mobility problems
Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked Private pitches
Disliked Unwelcoming. Turned up to the noise of an old shower/toilet block being demolished right near & next to the pitches. Description said cafe on/site, what a joke. I have mobility problems, the cafe was a long walk (approximately 8 to 10mins) this also includes a ‘V’ style bridge. No good for people like me. We stayed one night & left. Such an unloved place. No WiFi or signal

Fantastic little gem of a site.
Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked What a fantastic little gem of a site this was. We thoroughly enjoyed this site as it had everything we enjoy and look for. So peaceful, lovely big pitch which was very private, with the added bonus of the stunning lakes and superb cafe.. yes there’s no toilet block or showers but honestly it didn’t bother us , as we went prepared. We actually would’ve loved to stay another night. We will deffo be back and will take advantage of the fishing.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite
Liked This site has huge secluded pitches with water available at the dedicated power point. It's located in a quite village with some excellent pubs and great access to the Peaks. I can't believe it wasn't full in August!
Disliked The elsan point has been upgraded (thank you) but the security bolt is virtually impossible to use (for an old codger anyway).
