Liked Great facilities, with the luxury of a cafe, bar and shop, priced with a fair premium.
Friendly staff.
Fire pit hire was reasonable and convenient, with wood for sale also.
Excellent location to access Dales, Monsal Trail, Cheedale stepping stones, Tideswell etc.
Brilliant surrounding views.

Disliked Mens toilets were clean but tired.
Think more showers would help, one was out of order leaving just 3.
Couldn’t get a pint on the Saturday without paying to go into spice girls gig.
Track to campsite unsuitable for smaller cars, real risk of bottoming out.

Liked Convenient location near the Monsal Trail. Plenty of pitches to choose from.

Disliked The lack of hot water during busy times for washing up. The toilets on a Sunday night were filthy. Having to pay extra for a shower!

Liked Fantastic location. Great Views and next to some lovely walks. Good cafe and shop.

Disliked The shower and toilet facilities were terrible. There were far too many campers for 3 showers and the fact it was a pound for 4mins was a bit of a cheek (however, this is properly done to make sure people don't use them for too long). Same situation with the toilets. They need to invest in facilities if they want to have a campsite that supports hundreds of people.

Liked Good location with good pub on site
Close to Monsal Trail
Clean site with plenty of space
Quiet site with pitches far enough apart (can choose your own)

Disliked Poor facilities- not enough toilets
No hot water( and barely any cold water) to wash dishes. I’ve never had to queue for dish washing facilities whilst camping before

Liked Overall our stay was brilliant, site was very busy but it’s a pick your own pitch site which we liked however if arriving later in the day pitches can be limited.
Quite a lot of big groups but didn’t cause us any issues with noise etc. Spice girls tribute in the Cow Shed was great!
Would happily return but possibly on a quieter weekend when there isn’t an event on due to the below!

Disliked Not enough toilets for the number of bookings they were taking, especially with all fields being packed on Friday/ Saturday night!
Sunday morning there was a long queue for the women’s toilets and they became dirty, blocked and had no toilet paper very quickly! It was a shame as we really enjoyed our stay but feel the facilities can’t cope with the number of campers, even if people are trying to be respectful and not use too much water/ being quick in the bathrooms.

Liked The cafe and shop facility were one of the main reasons I chose to stay here again. Once again the food and service were excellent.

Disliked I had hoped some investment and been put in to the toilet, shower and washing up facilities. Unfortunately they had deteriorated. Of the four showers one was out of order and for the amount of people on the site was simply not enough. The men's toilets were poor of the four two did not have locking doors and then the cistern was very slow in refilling from the previous person which meant a long wait before you could flush. The washing up area was v poor. Water was at a trickle and hot water ran out. There was also a light which looked like it had a live wire showing. Another area that was poor. Was the drive from the cafe up to the campsite. It was at the point where a large number of cars struggled and wheels span and stones were been thrown which could hurt someone. It's a shame as it's a great location with some real positives.

Liked Great views, pretty shop and bar.

Disliked There are large groups of young adults all over this site. Although the advert states otherwise, it is obviously ignored.

I booked for 2 nights to take my young kids on a camping break. Had to repeatedly ask groups to stop swearing, every other word was f*&k. There's no strict pitches, it's more a free for all, which lends itself to little clubs opening up all over the place.

This was evident at night, when it turned into lots of alcohol fuelled parties, or just one massive one on the second night. I had to complain both nights for the site staff to sort it out as People were climbing on cars,drink driving to the toilets or just urinating over the field was bad enough, but the constant shouting, swearing and screaming from the drunks was appalling. This obviously woke up any babies and children, meaning you had screaming kids in the mixer at 1am too.
Then throw in car alarms and music with a splash of mobile phones, anyone managing to sleep needs medical attention.

Obviously being asked to keep the noise down just annoyed them, and they got worse, showing complete lack of decency and respect.
I gave up completely at 1am and just packed up the tent in the dark, and drove home as neither my kids or I had slept in 2 days. Really awful experience. Would not recommend.
