Good sized pitch with comprehensive services.
Nice clean toilets & we loved the piped in music!
Good amenities on-site.
Friendly staff at check-in.
Great stopover for Kedleston Hall & other local attractions.

Nothing that would stop us from returning.

Friendly and amenable, large pitch (ramps required), in quiet rural location little shop for emergency supplies, continuous running showers not push button. Nice walk of about 1.5/2 miles across fields to local pub that served lovely food.

Unfortunately closest bus stop quite a walk, about a mile, so had to drive off site or taxi to go sight seeing.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Blackbrook Lodge! The campsite is wonderfully quiet and kept impeccably clean, creating a relaxing atmosphere. The friendly and polite staff went above and beyond, always ready to assist with any questions we had.

The views were simply amazing, adding to the overall charm of the location. The pitches were a great size, providing ample space for our family. Being close to the shop was a convenient bonus, making it easy to grab any essentials.

One of our favorite features was the fabulous little fishing pond. It was a fun activity for everyone and added a unique touch to our getaway. Overall, Blackbrook Lodge exceeded our expectations, and we can't wait to return!

While our experience at Blackbrook Lodge was largely positive, there were a few aspects that could use improvement. One notable issue was the lack of storage for clothes in the showers, making it inconvenient to keep our belongings organized while showering. Additionally, the absence of a disabled shower chair could be a concern for those who need it.

Another inconvenience was the need for an in-ground area to empty waste water from the caravan. The height made it difficult to lift the heavy water hog, and having a designated spot would greatly enhance the experience for campers. Addressing these issues would certainly improve the overall functionality of the facilities.

Lovely large flat pitch, water and electric all very handy. Really friendly welcome, no stress, definitely recommend

Long walk to the bins...

Fishing

Showers, toilets, pitches uneven, wasps. General untidy appearance of sight , permanent pitches were very untidy

Quiet surroundings. Close to Ashbourne and Belper and carsington waters

The showers are very snug and your clothes get wet when hung on the door and shoes get wet as no where to put them out of the way. We would still go back without hesitation

Very nice clean and spacious pitch!
Helpful and friendly staff
Very kind to offer ice blocks to help keep food cool
Clean bathroom facilities and washing up area

Lots of flies ( I know they can’t be helped in summer) but would be nice to see some fly catchers in the communal areas

Location of the site is very good, it’s quiet and peaceful. Facilities are very good showers and toilets were clean, would come back again

Site lights stayed on all night which was very bright next to our tent,

Good location, nice staff, clean facilities, kids loved the fishing

Only thing missing that would be nice is a food van weekly visit?

The staff were all really friendly and made you feel welcome which is a really nice feeling.
I would also like to mention how clean the toilet/shower block is! I have camped in many places and I have to say these are up there on top.
Also there was always hot water no matter what time but I think one of the best bits about the block was the shower squeegee this was perfect to make sure no one would slip!
Pitches are nice and big for kids to play on and not batter the tent with a ball.
