Liked: First time camping in uk. Great place with friendly host, although we arrive late, we still have good information to get to. Nice shower facilities with hot water and good pressure. Beautiful and clean site. Site is large, plenty of space. Toilet block is clean.
Disliked: The toilet is a bit too high for female.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site
Liked: Location, fuss free, scenery, price, facilities. Minninglow offered everything we wanted for our first weekend away in our tentbox.
The toilets are really clean and the showers are shabby chic, wild camping with an added bit of luxury.
Disliked: Nothing to dislike about this place.

From the manager: Thanks for the great review we hope to see you and your tent box again soon😁

Unpowered grass caravan site
Liked: Nice simple site with composting toilets and hot gas powered showers with good water pressure.
Which is essentially all i need for day to day living. First field you drive in to is reasonably flat and all grass, the field with the facilities and site trailer reception is on more of a hill. Dry stone wall surrounds with a treeline to the bottom near the entrance road. Lovely clear views of the Tissington trail and Minninglow barrow from the top, which can be a little windy.
The site is roughly 2.5 miles away a few villages if you would like a pub meal or about 20 mins from Ashbourne for daily goods.
Lovely little location, simple but effective away from daily life distractions and very little phone reception. Great little getaway and worth the money
Disliked: nothing
