What customers say

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.

Rebecca G.

Powered concrete slab caravan site (no awning)

Liked Lovely views and modern facilities, good play area.

Disliked Sloped touring pitches under trees so not much sun. Pool has to be booked, not much availability and shuts early. Toilets hardly cleaned, bins overflowing and always toilet paper on the floor. Rules not enforced, kids on electric bikes and scooters and dogs roaming off lead occasionally fighting!

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Location
Good play area
Small swimming pool on site

Disliked Surly staff .. not welcoming.. on arrival just told ‘it’s all on the leaflet’ when asked some basic questions
Not even a smile from staff
One porta cabin toilet block ( cladded to look nicer) bins overflowing & rubbish not removed.
Grass pitches very close together
& un even
Some disrespectful campers which didn’t help… but that’s not the sites fault

No windbreaks or gazebos allowed ( although people did use them )

Looks nice as arrive .. especially the caravans & camping pods .. but touring area felt like an afterthought

Louise R.

Powered grass tent site

Liked Lovely campsite, it is very well maintained with plenty of room between tents. We camped in Dale View which was perfect for us as away from the main area but close enough to the toilets and showers.

You can have a car free day and spend all day on site making use of the park, pool and access to Tissington Trail.

Disliked Need more washing up stations for campers

Recommend to friends Visit again

Overall really happy and impressed, just a few tweaks would help.

Camping pod

Liked The pods were clean and offered the basic essentials for ‘camping’, along with bedding and pillows. With a 5 month old, the usual tent camping seemed too tricky, so this was a great alternative. The personal toilet/shower/sink was clean and well-kept. The grounds were well-kept and orderly. The playground was a blessing for young children and the shop on-site was handy too.

Disliked The swimming booking system doesn’t work and this isn’t made clear on the website info. You can’t book swimming until you check in, which isn’t until 4pm with camping pods but is much earlier with tents, so by the time we arrived to check in, all swimming slots were taken. I expressed my disappointment with this to the staff in reception, who did not seem too concerned or flexible, and kept just responding that this is the process in place- like this would help me explain to my 3 year old. However, by chance my sister-in-law was buying milk from the shop the next day and they had just opened another slot up for that day so we managed to get a slot. I’m not sure why this wasn’t offered when I was showing my disappointment about this but had my sister-in-law not have been in the shop at that time, we wouldn’t have known about it. It just doesn’t seem like the most effective system in place and I feel it could be reviewed.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked Nice area with direct access to trails for walking and biking

Disliked Toilets and showers are not good. On Sunday there was no toilet roll, dirty nappies on the floor and disgusting toilets from 6am untill lunch time.
Needs better facilities for camping
Feels like camping is not a priority for this site, and main focus is static caravans

Local attractions

The amount of antics available at Alton Towers near Ashbourne Heights might turn grownups grey among the thrill rides, river rapids and other heady highlights of the country’s biggest theme park. You’ll ensure Very Good Behaviour Indeed if you take the family on to Gulliver’s Kingdom at Matlock Bath, designed to keep all ages busy/tired out for later (beware the nerf guns). Other energetic Peak District pastimes include watersports, laser tag, climbing, caving and zipwiring; find out where’s what at Ashbourne’s tourist information centre, which is practised in all things Peak. More peacefully, the Peak District has a high amount of culture and heritage to explore: National Trust houses and estates, the old spa towns of Matlock and Buxton, museums of all sorts, prehistoric cave paintings, three vintage railways and aeons more. Lead mining was a main industry here from Roman times until recently and info on the industry can be mined at the Peak District Mining Museum at Matlock. Bolsover Castle, founded in the 12th century, has regular events to tempt the kids, such as exhibitions on torture for the gruesomely minded, an indoor riding school, and a theatrical room just for little darlings.
