Liked: Had the site completely to myself. Quiet, clean toilets, drinking water and rubbish disposal. Great location to visit so many great places in the Peak District. Been back twice now and definitely going again. Can pick up 5G remarkably.
Disliked: Nothing. No showers but that is made clear.

Liked: We will be back ! It was that best camping trip we have had. We placed our tent near the running stream which we could hear from within our tent. This just made the night away more relaxing! The site is easy to find. It wasn't over crowded like we thought it would be and everyone respected the no music rule. We were able to chill in our deck chairs and look at the stars until pretty late. It is a beautiful place to camp. Peaceful and tranquil. The owners are lovely too ! My wife has suggested that instead of coming out to the site to check tents (most people were out) you could take reg numbers on booking :) ? You could just check the non registered then and save your time.
Disliked: The toilets were clean and well stocked but as the night went on they became very iffy. This isn't a true dislike as at the end of the day your camping so what do you expect !

Liked: A good level site. Great location for walking. Quiet and peaceful with great views. Very friendly owner who comes round site everyday.
Disliked: Not having toilets or washing facilities is the only reason for not giving 5 stars but was OK for 1 or 2 nights.

Liked: The location, the toilets were clean and there was water available to fill up bottles, for cooking, and brushing teeth/washing etc. The campsite was tucked off the main road with was lovely and was close to lots of amazing hikes, quaint villages and towns, and easy to find. A great spot for a back to basics camping trip!
