It was everything we look for…

Aug 2026

Liked It was everything we look for in a campsite and more. We love the smaller quieter campsites and this was just absolutely idyllic. It somehow managed to be both in the middle of nowhere but also close enough to everything still. It was two minutes away from a well stocked petrol station and a short drive from Bakewell (yes we may have accidentally bought three tarts from the bakery, oh and fudge from the fudge shop). Our days out walking were only ever a short drive from the campsite although there were plenty of walks even closer if we wished. Back to the campsite. The pitches were amazing. Gave us complete privacy and space. It was beautiful to watch the sunset with the sheep and cows in the field next to us watching the swifts play. It was a haven of wildlife. Our pitch was well sheltered by mature trees which was a blessing during windy weather, because of how we pitched the tent hardly moved because of the trees. There wasn't light pollution so on our last night it was a beautiful clear sky and there were so many stars and I saw the ISS making its way across the sky. We had a great time away. Thanks

Disliked Obviously that we had to come home.
