What customers say
Popular, no-frills farm site. Great Peak District access for walks like Mam Tor. Guests love the views, staff, and vibe. Basic, clean facilities. Food van & shop handy. Some find it noisy, busy, or windy.

Unpowered grass site
Liked Location was great, lovely walk up to mam tor from the campsite. Beautiful views of the countryside and hills. Nice to have the option of hot food on Saturday and breakfast baps in the morning.
Disliked Facilities were adequate but basic, very cold to use especially at night and not enough toilets for the amount of guests on the site there was always a queue for the ladies.

Good if you want to visit Mam Tor and Castleton.
Unpowered grass caravan site
Liked Lots of space, big open field. Very quiet. Great location for walking to Mam Tor, Winnets pass, cavedale and Castleton. Shower was hot. Have pizzas, jacket potatoes on certain nights and egg and bacon baps on certain mornings. Working farm so lots of sheep, lambs, cows and calfs, also swallows nesting.
Disliked Facilities adequate but could do with an extra shower for both men's and women's. Not the campsites fault but had no phone signal.

Unpowered grass site
Liked Plenty of room when we turned up, got busier as the evening went on. Lovely views and lots of fields full of cute lambs! 20-30 mins to Mam Tor. Facilities were immaculately clean. Cant fault the owner, lovely lady who was helpful. Some pizzas of an evening on a weekend, nice!
Disliked Toilets got very busy (only 2 for women).

Poor facilities and overcrowding
Unpowered grass caravan site
Liked Central location for local walking/hikes.
Disliked Over crowded with no organisation of campers. Very much a free for all and told by man on reception, you will find a space.
Very difficult to find as only a very small Rowter Farm sign and an awkward turning into what is signed as a walking route. No mention of Campsite. Gate was also closed so had to get out of Motorhome to open at a blinded junction in the road.
