Hope Valley Holidays

A aimé Large spacious pitch with nice surroundings in a good location. Walks and cycle routes from the campsite. Good amenities and an indoor games room that included pool, table football, table tennis & darts.

N'a pas aimé A couple improvements worth mentioning: Electric showers in the woman's restroom as the showers were cold but the mens had electric showers that were lovely & warm.
A shower curtain & bench in the cubicle to stop the spray wetting all your clothes/shoes.
Hooks by the sinks to hang your things.
Drinking water taps dotted around.

Hopefully you will visit again soon.

A aimé Location was good and it’s very convenient, most of the grounds are big and well maintained overall had a great nights stay.

N'a pas aimé Next to where we had to camp there was a load of dumped cardboard amongst what looked like branches from trees, pitch up says “ shower and washroom facilities dotted strategically around the place”

There’s 1 shower bock for men there are 2 toilets and 2 showers and there not dotted strategically around the place. Girls have double the toilets and shower.

We were limited to where we could pitch because we were in a roof tent and this was the furthest away from the 1 toilet block. The signs from the road are not clear and we ended up driving towards the exit. By the time you see the small no entry sign it was too late. So had no option but the drive in to turn around. This was greeted by a guy throwing his arms up in the air with disproof I think he was the owner maybe as the same guy the patrolled the lower rood driving a grey van back and forward witch was very strange.. there’s a block at the back off us where 2 white t5 vans where who decided at 12am to have a rap contest until 1am so sleep wasn’t the best.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Mark
We are pleased that overall you had a great nights stay.

Your comments though are quite the opposite of all of our other guests and their reviews.

To note, the vast majority of our guests have scored us 10/10.


In terms of where you pitched. Despite being the last booking to arrive on the Sunday of a busy bank holiday and we offered you 2 areas with lots of space to pitch in. The area you chose had over an acre of available space, and you chose to pitch in a corner next to the bonfire pile.
We always strive to accommodate special requests, and had we have known in advance that you needed to be nearer to the toilet block we would have happily reserved you a pitch closer to them.


The shower and toilet block was built by the Girl Guides (pervious custodians of the site), which is why where there are more female than male units. We did though have the large family wet-room (toilet/sink/shower/baby-change), as well as an extra shower wet-room open for anyone to use.
To note, we do have over double the facilities opening soon (currently closed due the building they are in being damaged by an escape of water, the insurers are working on making the building and facilities fit to open again)
We closely manage booking numbers to ensure we are well within the HSE toilet to guest ratios, and we keep the facilities spotless.

You did drive onto the site through the wrong gates, which no-one else has done. We pointed you to use the correct gates as we operate a one way system for safety, and you stated shouting.

The grey van you mention is our site vehicle and was out on site doing site maintenance.

Our T&C's are strict, we are a family orientated no-nonsense site with quiet time from 10pm to 7am, the noise at 12.00 was quickly dealt with.

All our other guests over the bank holiday have provided fantastic feedback both directly to us and via Pitch-Up. We continue to operate our excellent site, facilities with welcoming customer service to the visitors of the Peak District.

A aimé Love, love love hope valley holidays!!!!
The site is spacious, well maintained and thought out with lots to do for children, their is a secure dog walking area, play area, games room (darts, air hockey, ping pong, board games) kettle, fridge and freezer, you have hire fire pits and buy wood which we thought was a lovely touch.
The bathrooms and washing up stations are always clean, ladies showers were cold if timed wrong but it was bank holiday and very busy. Gill and Andy are lovely so helpful, if the office is closed they are more than happy to help. Hope valley holidays is our definite go to in the Peak district.

A aimé Very well organised site, nice and flat with plenty for kids. Clean toilets and lots of space. Will definitely be coming back.

N'a pas aimé The walk to the pub with young kids is a bit frightening to be fair. Very fast road with multiple crossings.

A aimé Marvellous pitch (thanks to Andy!), 3 tents on the site only. Decent clean, hot showers and loos with ample washing up space. The beautiful weather helped ;). The train line at the top of the field just added to the experience. About 15 minutes from the Travellers Rest too. The field (as we learned) has been drained and the owners have fantastic plans but god only knows why Peak Park authorities are so obstructive to improvements to a site-hey ho.

N'a pas aimé Nothing

A aimé Really lovely space, well-maintained and great facilities.

N'a pas aimé There is a rail track that runs next to the site, but the trains do stop running in the night so it's not a huge issue.
