Nice spot but toilets and sloped pitch would put me off a return visit
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely quiet spot. Lots of space - didn't see my 'neighbours'! Lovely views and sunset. Fresh water, Friendly welcome.
Disliked The porta-loos - that's an experience I will never forget - they were full and smelly! My pitch was on a slope - might be ok in a caravan but impossible in a tent - I kept rolling to one end in the night. The lower terraces looked flatter.

Great price, fantastic views, great host and excellent facilities.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Fantastic price, Ed the host, clean facilities and a shower!!! Loved it. Each space had a picnic table, can hire a fire pit and buy wood which means you don’t have to take these things. Good size plot for tent and car. Great views. Plenty of places to visit not far way including Carsington water, Dovedale stepping stones. Thank you.

Beautiful, basic but has everything you need.
Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked This site is beautiful. We wanted to find a wild camping spot and this ticks all the boxes but has the basic amenities that you need. If you are looking for a glamping experience, this is not the site for you! The views are incredible and the freedom to have a BBQ and camp fire makes this place perfect. Fires are not permitted in the Peak District National Park but this site sits just beyond the boundary. The owners were friendly and helpful on arrival and really informative when we left the site. I would recommend this little gem to any campers who enjoy a proper back to nature experience.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Lovely campsite with stunning views and spacious pitches. We brought our own fire pit, but you can also hire one on site and buy wood from Ed the farmer, who is incredibly helpful and friendly.
Disliked The toilet block and showers could do with updating but can’t really complain because they were kept very clean and tidy.

Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked Beautiful view. Ed the Farmer was very friendly.
Disliked Not sure how owners are getting away with charging £30 per night. 2 portaloos and 2 (only 1 working at the time we stayed) plumbed in toilets. Showers dirty, no hot water.. everything just very cheap and old.

Good value for money. Friendly host. Stunning views.
Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Friendly welcome by Jon. Friendly fellow campers. Site sloping so absolutely beautiful views from every pitch. Pitches good size. Water taps around site. Fire pits for hire. 2 porta-loos, toilet block with 2 toilets (1 out of order throughout our stay). Shower block with 2 working showers. Washing up facilities. Basic facilities but reflected in the value-for-money price.
Disliked Porta-loos - awful things but better than nothing!

Excellent site and great value for money.
Primitive grass campervan campsite
Liked A wonderful back to nature camping site. Incredibly peaceful, magnificent views and an awesome and very friendly farmer Ed to welcome us and answer all our needs! You can have fire pits and there are 2 showers, good pot washing facilities, and a mix of portaloos and flushing toilets.
Ed was awesome and cares very much about his site, and wants everyone to have the best possible experience. We went with friends and we would definitely go back again. The pitches were very large and well spaced out, with four terraces and big grassy margins inbetween.
Disliked Nothing. Just be aware the terraces have a slight slope, it didn't bother us but take choc blocks if you're in a camper
