Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Michelle
Thank you for your review.
We are really pleased you enjoyed your stay with us.
The dog exercise area is new for this year and it certainly seems to be a hit with out 4 legged visitors.
The walk down to Wirksworth is lovely isn't it, a stones throw from the site and lots of lovely little places to visit when you reach the bottom of the footpath.

A aimé Beautiful site with plenty of space. We were the last to arrive on a fully booked night and still got a lovely spot.
Love that there is a bar and food on selected nights. Super clean facilities and staff were lovely

N'a pas aimé They could do with a few more toilets, there was quite a large queue in the morning (but to note, we were there on a fully booked night)

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi thank you for your review.
Were glad you like our little reception area which is a new build for this season.
We are constantly developing our little site so hope to see you again

A aimé There was a bar with a marquee tent to sit in, and they serve food on Friday and Saturday nights. The toilets were lovely and modern and clean in a little wooden shack. Plenty of space, we went when it was fully booked and there was plenty of space for everyone to spread out. There was a lovely view and it helped we had good weather.

N'a pas aimé Wish there was more toilets, there was only 4 cubicles, so in the morning there was a queue.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi thank you for your review of our site.

Having plenty of space is something we have in abundance!
We are sorry you found a que in the mornings, we have 4 cubicles with toilets, 3 showers rooms with toilets and 4 men's urinals in a separate block around the back so hopefully the ques didn't last for long.

Having toilets around the site is certainly something we are hoping to have in the future and we are constantly developing.
Hope to see you back soon so you can see our progress.

A aimé The whole set up, from the moment we arrived booked in by the owners, the bar area , the Caribbean food, local ciders,the toilets and showers all excellent, we will be back .

N'a pas aimé None

A aimé Everything!!!! Bar and all his staff were friendly and so helpful. Plenty of safe space for kids to play including the huge sandpit i never heard the words "im bored" from my boys. Bar and pop up food stalls were brilliant and reasonable prices. Showers were hot and very clean same goes for the toilets. Views were amazing we will definitely be back!!

N'a pas aimé Nothing!!

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Sam
Thank you for your lovely review.
We love to hear you liked everything.
The sandpit it a great hit with the children (adults have been know to be up to their knees in it which is a great sight!)
The views from the campsite can't be beaten so really pleased you enjoyed these while you were with us.

We hope to see you again soon and hopefully there will be more developments as we are constantly trying to improve (as you know) fingers crossed

A aimé Absolutely lovely stunning scenery. Just rolls and rolls of green hills. Massive site for plenty of pitches. Plenty to do in the area. The on site sand pit and bar were a welcomed highlight

N'a pas aimé Not a dislike but more to warn that the roads to the site are very narrow.
Although more toilets and showers are probably needed for busier times

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi Jessica
Thank you for your review.
The rolls and rolls of green hill are something to admire for sure, its such a lovely view from the site.
The roads to the site are narrow in places but its definitely worth it when you reach us as you agree.
We hope to see you in the future

A aimé Beautiful views! Kind family run staff, wide open fields for the kids to run!

Love the photos of the beautiful view, would you mind if we shared it on our social media page?

We are very proud of our little gem and hope you will come back to enjoy it again soon.

A aimé Beautiful site, clean and looked after. The facilities were always clean and fully stocked. The views are amazing. The owners were so kind and helpful when my friends van battery needed a jump start. Absolutely brilliant, and can’t wait to come back next year

Réponse du gestionnaire : Hi thank you for your review.
We definitely agree about the amazing reviews, nothing better than rolling hills to greet you when you wake up in the morning.
We are always on hand with a set of jump leads when needed (this has happened on more than one occasion, the joys of motoring eh?)
We look forwards to your return next season.
