From the manager: Thank you for your review.
We are a dog friendly sight, we just ask that because we are a working farm that dogs are kept on a lead or tether at all times, this is because we have had livestock killed in the past by dogs owned by campers on the site.
The farm is full of footpaths and it's easy to get down into the village.
The pub you mentioned in the village isn't a pub, it's a restaurant called The Family Tree that closes at around 5pm daily, there is a footpath that runs through the farm upto a pub at the top of the village called The Bear inn.
We are also situated next to shinning cliff woods which has plenty of footpaths.
Awesome location, great facilities.
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Wow, what a location! The views were amazing. The facilities: shower and toilet blocks were very clean and comfortable. Washing-up liquid and sponges were provided in the kitchen sink area.
On arrival, we were greeted by a charming gentleman, signing in and admin took only a minute or two. There was easy accessible public transport, both bus and train to take us into Matlock and Matlock Bath.
we shall be back.
