HAZEL W. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Powered gravel travel trailer campsite

Liked: We were pleasantly greeted on arrival and directed to our pitch. Lovely spot, surrounded by hills, countryside and animals. The pub is so lovely and there's access to great food on your doorstep - whether on site or just up the road at The Royal Oak. I was so pleased to see how popular Charlie Bassett's is (credit to what they offer) and yet our stay was peaceful and we had the best sleep. There are plenty of picnic tables (our pitch had it's own) and outdoor spaces to enjoy a drink. We'll be frequent visitors.

Disliked: I think people should know that there is only one male & female shower (which is perfectly clean and modern) to service the whole site. Also, come on guys, get with a recycling programme.

From the manager: Hi Hazel, Thanks for taking the time to Score/review us it is much appreciated . Thanks for the great Score as well. We have plans to Build a Bigger Female Toilet block for The Ladies with more showers and Toilets + Disabled Block , when fund/budget allows us to, But i think all would agree the Facilities we have are A1. We do have a Certain amount of Recycling you may have not Seen the Red Jumbo Bins in the little Compound , But to be Honest if everyone did it that would be Great but we end up with items just thrown in the wrong Bins , So our Waste goes with Biffa were it is all then separated in there specialised Sorting / Recycling Facility . So all gets recycled in the end !! Hope to see you again in the Future . BEST REGARDS Team Charlies

Liked: What a great place to stay, easy to access yet secluded enough to feel away from it all, all the staff are really friendly and welcoming and explain everything you need to know, facilities are great and spotlessly clean, and the big bonus is the food and drink available on site, a nice walk into local village with its community grounds or local shops in the other direction make this an easy enjoyable trip away.

Liked: Really nice atmosphere and bonus with the tavern and restaurant being on site. Being caravan newbies we had a few problems with the van, but staff and locals were super friendly and were on hand to help when needed. Couldn’t fault the site and would stay again.

From the manager: Hi Christina , Great To Hear we could assist you in your hour of need . ( I was there with the dreaded Jockey Wheel Lol ) Every time you go for your adventures as Newbies will be a learning curve but eventually you will think nothing of it Lol.

Local attractions

This is an ace base for trips to Alton Towers (20 minutes’ drive) for folk who fancy riding rollercoasters like the Nemesis and Oblivion. Spend one day scampering among the top-class attractions here, then slow things down the next with countryside explores. The Peak District National Park (around 25 minutes) is full of walking paths, while other spots like Trentham Gardens (20 minutes) are top for traipsing round too. If checking out cheeky creatures is more your bag, head to Trentham Monkey Forest (20 minutes) and wander among the free-roaming animals. Around 140 Barbary macaques live in the woodlands and meadows here – make sure to look up and spot them swinging through the trees. Once you’ve snapped pics of the primates, set your sights on some of the market towns scattered around the area. Stone, a settlement on the Trent and Mersey Canal (15 minutes), is well-regarded for its food and drink options, while Cheadle (55 minutes), just outside the wood-covered Churnet Valley and the scenic Staffordshire Moorlands, is worth stopping in too.
