Liked: Kind, friendly, great hospitality. Peaceful surroundings. Convenient for Alton towers. Nice ales on offer. Safe space for kids to play.
Disliked: Lack of shower facility. Counter balanced with a visit to splash water park at Alton towers (well worth a visit)

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: Small site, very close to Alton Towers with good facilities. It is very close to a road but I quite enjoyed the sound of the traffic when going off to sleep. Family of bunnies came to visit in the early hours which was lovely!
Disliked: Pitches are not marked out and we although quiet when we arrived, we were found that other tents quickly arrived which were able to be set up pretty much on top of us. We left after our second night due to the inconsideration and noise from our tent neighbours- not the camp sites fault.
Site also not secure and very close to fast main road and given the young age of some of the campers- you may want to reconsider if you have an adventurous toddler/young child with you!

Liked: The pitch was clean and spacious.
People who worked there had great manners and very helpful.
Disliked: Pub was very out dated. Didn't realise we was right next to a main road so very loud through the night.
