What customers say

This well-kept, quiet site has ample, flat pitches and a grand welcome. Facilities are always praised as spotless, with showers boasting great hot water and prep space. Great spot for Alton Towers and local rambles and pubs. Cute alpacas are a big hit with the kids. A few minor quibbles about shower time and temp.

Laura S.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Beautiful site with well looked after pitches, some lovely animals and stunning views from the children’s park area. The toilet and shower facilities were lovely and clean as well as the sinks for washing up. Friendly owner who let us into the site and told us everything we needed to know. The information boards showing maps of local areas, pubs and places for days out was really helpful. We walked into Alton too which was signposted. We’ll be back!

Disliked One tiny thing - the shower only runs for 10 seconds before turning off - completely understand this for sustainability but it is perhaps a tiny bit too short!

The Peak District is a few miles away with many more hikes, or take the Tissington and High Peak bike trails if you're feeling hardy.
