What customers say
A no-frills farm site with amazing views and a calm vibe. Guests rave about the helpful owners, super clean facilities, and great value. The sloped field is noted but manageable, with some liking its rustic feel. Perfect for walks and exploring. Fire pits to rent.

A much recommended campsite.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked A fabulous campsite. Large space so never feel like your on top of other campers. Felt safe as a solo female camper. Clean toilets and electric showers available, as well as a washing up area. Really easy to find and a peaceful site. Horses and cows on the farm and beautiful views. Walked to Cromford along the canal, really good location. 2nd time I've visited and it wont be the last.
Disliked Upon arrival, noone was at the check in table but sign said to book in at the house. I went to the house and rang the bell but no answer, ended up calling the number on my booking. Not really a negative, but made me slightly uncomfortable waiting at the door.
