Hope Valley Holidays

Liked Stayed for 1 night with a view to running early next morning. Campsite really well maintained, toilets sparkling clean. The games room “hut” equipped with fridges/freezers was a massive win. Owners very friendly - they even allowed me to move my booking to the week after due to a last-minute family issue that popped up. I returned late from my run but the owners were kind enough to not rush to boot me out at bang-on 11am.
Overall really loved my stay, thank you so much for your kindness!
One more thing, Bike & Boot is a lovely pub/restaurant a 5 minute walk down the road - recommended!

Disliked Loud trains passing so may need earplugs :)

From the manager: Thanks for the review Mark! We are delighted that you enjoyed your stay and look forward to you visiting again!

Liked Clean facilities and little extras made it stand out such as good quality toilet roll, washing up liquid and bowls. The bonus of the games room equipped with kettle, fridges and freezers makes this campsite stand out amongst the rest. I would certainly not hesitate in returning and the owners were lovely and friendly.

Disliked Bit of a trek to the toilets would be my only dislike and the noise of the train, but wouldn’t let it put me off.

From the manager: Thanks for the great review Ruth!

We'll have the second shower/toilet block open in a few months.... still waiting on the insurance company to finish the remedial work in that building...

We look forward to seeing you again!

Liked Location.
Restrooms are clean as are toilets.
Washing area also clean

Disliked Cost of non electric pitch
The noise from the main line railway which is right next to site.
Busy main road, on the other side, so surrounded by noise.
Ground is rough

From the manager: Well Peter, its obvious that your review is not reflective of reality, proven by the 10/10 reviews book-ending you!

We see that the last campsite you reviewed you gave a 1/10 to….(yes a 1!) There you didn’t like the wildlife (despite them being in a conservation park), didn’t like that you couldn’t bypass their barrier entry system (that we expect is there for safety and security), didn’t like that they tried to engage in general conversation with you, didn’t like that the ground in June was hard....and you didn’t like their costs (which, just like us, are representative of the season and other sites in the area)

So the 4/10 that you’ve given us seems like a win!

Here you didn’t like that the ground is ‘rough’…..We are in a heat wave, the ground and grass here is actually doing very well. Bear in mind that there are wild fires just miles from us. You won’t find cushioned velvet grass fields anywhere in the UK, or even Europe right now.

You didn't like that we are near a road and train line, these being very visible on the maps and key for accessing not only the site, but the Hope Valley itself, we've even got a bus stop! (everywhere around here is near to a road or the train line, and we have extensive barrier vegetation on the site)

You didn’t like our costs (you knew the price when you booked), but happy to use more space than was allocated to you plus the parking, showers, fridges, freezers, games hut and phone charing points….all included in the pitch price.

Perhaps camping just isn’t for you.

Liked Super helpful hosts, fab vibe, great location, well equipped games room

Disliked A few of the pitches are quite near the road but loads of other places to pitch

From the manager: Thanks for the great review! We are delighted that you enjoyed the site. It was lovely meeting you both and we hope you visit us again!

Liked This is a beautiful campsite, with large pitches, and lots of space for the kids to play safely.
There's good transport access and near to some lovely locations and places to visit.
We loved that we had a shelf of the fridge and freezer, which was great for storing food without worrying about the hot weather.
The games room was also fabulous, with games to play abd borrow during yiur stay, as well as a book swap.
There were great washing, toilet and shower facilities which were lovely and clean.
Andy and Jill were both very friendly and helpful.
We will be back!

Disliked The noise from the maintenance train on Saturday night, caused most campers to wake, but it's not something Andy or Jill can control.
