Great for families, with a top-notch play area & pool. Lovely Peak District spot with trail access. Friendly staff. Some find loos/showers a bit far/dated.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Everything was nice about the camp site and the facilities.…
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Everything was nice about the camp site and the facilities.
Disliked Only a small issue, but it was hard to get a time slot to use the swimming pool and if it could be open until 5 instead of 4 then would perhaps give more possibility of having a swim.
The price was a bit steep for myself and my son for a non-electric pitch. The pitch could have up to 6 people, but I felt there should be a discount if less people or smaller tent.

Good campsite with lots of facilities. Electric pitches seem better.
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Good facilities; fantastic playground, swimming pool (need to book), decent shop, washing up area, modern toilets, and lots of camping types. Roads were very well maintained and was a safe place to bring children.
Non electric pitch was quiet and large.
Disliked Non electric field was very sloped and very busy when we arrived. Field was quite far from facilities; sort of feels like non electric is a bit forgotten about with no facilities nearby. Electric pitches either had good views, or were near the playground and were flat.
The toilets and showers, although modern and clean when we arrived were pretty disgusting by the end of it, and seemed like they were maybe cleaned once in the four days we were there based upon what I saw.
Given it was the most expensive non electric we saw in the area it probably didn't justify the price point.

Will not be returning, glamping is supposed to be glam its in the name
Camping pod
Liked The views were stunning, the campsite wasn’t too loud. Despite being told bedding wasn’t provided, it was. The pods were quite roomy
Disliked It wasn’t glamping, it was more like being on a school trip in a shed. Every other glamping pod I’ve stayed at has had a glamorous aspect, tea, coffee, a kettle, sometimes even a small fridge and a way to cook. Empty pods had their outside lights left on all night by the cleaning crew. Our shower was used by someone else, we only left it unlocked so that we could all shower one after another without having to lock and unlock each time. As far as glamping goes we will not be returning. There was nothing to make this a better experience than camping other than there being proper beds. These should not be advertised as glamping pods, just enclosed pods or sheds with beds. Nothing glamorous to report at all. Check in was far too late considering check out time. You don’t get to spend your first day doing anything other than unpack and figure out a way to cook without a cooker, microwave and a no bbq rule.

0 (zero) facilities at the non electric pitch. Very overpriced
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked The kids park and the pool is decent.
Disliked 0 (zero) facilities at the non electric pitch. Locker room for the pool is like a scene from a Hackney Wick half way house. Also got told off for having a bbq on at night….

Our new favourite site in Ashbourne.
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked The safe were all so nice and friendly across site. Especially in the shop, where they made our children feel happy. The site is absolutely immaculate. The park is great too. Swimming pool well controlled and not crowded.
Disliked The only slight problem is the toilets for the bottom camping field is a good walk. Not so ideal on the evenings.
Recommend to friends Visit again
Despite the above, we really enjoyed the visit and would def. return!
Camping pod
Liked The location, the size of the pod, individual bathrooms and washing up sinks next to the pod, accessibility to Tissington trail, the swimming pool, and the playground.
Disliked Lack of coffee/tea facilities. The park could benefit from a decent coffee/tea facilities, or a little cafe. The truck that is on offer with food and drinks is open in limited hours and although the food was good, it was also quite limited and no vegetarian options.

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Fantastic site, excellent facilities, brilliant for the kids. Although slightly more expensive than other sites, it is certainly worth the money. Look forward to coming back next year. Constantly had people working and maintaining the site.
