Anonymous 2 bedroom lodge
Liked I’ve been camping on the site each year for about 20 years. It’s a gorgeous spot and very handy for Bakewell and other places. This year and last I booked Standlow Lodge with a friend and our two dogs. Plenty of space, well equipped and private garden is perfect for the dogs
Disliked Nothing disliked but Zi do think it is a bit expensive compared with other similar options.

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite

We stayed at Mandale Campsite from Friday to Monday and had a fantastic time. The campsite was clean, peaceful, and well looked after. The facilities were always tidy, and the staff were friendly and welcoming.
The atmosphere was lovely, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy time with family. The pitches were spacious, and the location was great for exploring the surrounding area.
We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely come back again. Thank you for making our weekend so enjoyable!

Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Quiet campsite with plenty of room. Lovely views and a nice walk to Over Haddon for a drink at the pub and then a nice walk to Bakewell.
Disliked Don’t think there was anything we disliked. It was value for money. Although the phone signal was poor but you expect that.

Simple-basic facilities. .Returners-4th visit
Anonymous Primitive grass tent or RV campsite
Liked Simple, plenty of space, relaxed, quiet.
Phone reception ok (O2)
Fridge
Regularly cleaned during our visit
Disliked 20p a minute for hot water- not the cost, but the inconvenience for washing up or a shower
The corner around the service block is a blind corner- a bit of a hazard for small children and cars. A mirror would be useful
No Wi-Fi. Very few electric hook ups, all in a row by the barn.
No where to rinse clothes, except the washing up sinks
