What customers say
A favorite, no-frills farm site with amazing Peak District access for hikes like Mam Tor. Praised for views, friendly staff, and chill vibe. Basic, clean facilities. Some note noise and wind. Great value, nature-focused.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked Location, facilities, relatively flat pitches, pizza van on-site
Disliked Double red lines outside the gate to the farm, post code on website takes you to the bottom of winnats pass, and a really small sign meant we drove past the entrance.

Fit for purpose if you are wanting a basic pitch
Primitive grass campsite
Liked Simplicity and you get what you need and paid for. Pitch was well kept and fit for purpose.
Disliked Overall facilities lacked anything above what is bare minimum for a paying customer.
There is a drinking tap, pot washing station and toilet. This is located directly in the middle of the farm grounds, where there is no clear divide between the camp site and the working farm.
The shower incurs a charge at £1 per 3 minutes which is questionable when you pay a fee to be staying on site already.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked The overall feel of the camp. The showers and toilet facilities were clean, the shop on site was handy for any last minute bits you might have forgotten. Great location from shops and hikes. Pizza van was a great addition for a nice hot dinner and the owners were very welcoming.
Disliked Not so much a dislike but something to look into- The sign on the gate before entering the field off the main road. The writing could be a bit bigger as we did drive past out of confusion of not wanting to go into the wrong place.

Great site and location, will visit again
Anonymous Primitive grass campsite
Liked Beautiful views and walking from the site into Castleton via Cave Dale. Clean facilities, was able to rent a fire pit for a few days with logs and kindling too. We even had a onsite pizza on the Friday which was nice after a long walk up Mam Tor which can be done from the site without worrying about parking.
