Liked: Great location in the heart of the beautiful high peaks. Walking distance to both Edale and Castleton. Mam Tor right there and a gorgeous hike to Kinder Scout plus other peaks. The site is basic and a good size. Lots of space for kids to play on their bikes which was nice to see.
Disliked: Ask people to take their rubbish home or have enclosed bins. There was a skip that stuff was being dumped in and litter kept on blowing out of it.

Liked: Great little farm site, decent shower blocks and toilets.
They have a little shop selection (similar to a tuck-shop) in the farmhouse entrance. For a few hours at weekends and Bank Holidays, they have a little pop-up hot food van with breakfasts and sometimes hot-potatoes in the evenings.
Short walk away from Mam Tor and the Hope Valley.
Just to note, check-in is in the farmhouse on the right hand side
Disliked: Nothing to dislike.

Liked: Just had my 4th stay at Rowter farm campsite. As a solo female camper I’ve always felt safe and welcome here and there is usually plenty chats with other campers. Fab wee campsite with great views, some great walks and not too far from Castleton village. Facilities are basic but kept clean. Shouldn’t be long before I’m back for my 5th stay.
Disliked: I’ve not found anything to dislike on any of my stays.

Liked: Very good place to stay in a good connection to lots of things to do and seeing. In the evening it is not far away to go for sunset. I love it. Very beautiful views and good point to go for a bike ride and walking. The pitches was beautiful when in the morning you wake up next to sheep walking around. That’s was so funny for a kids when they wake up. And in Saturday it was chance to buy a delicious jacket potato. You can also rent a fire pit with logs for a small amount.
Disliked: I don’t know if was something to dislike? No I am so happy with my stay.
