Matlock Farm Park Camping

A aimé We enjoyed the campsite, lovely and quiet, loved being surrounded by woodland, well maintained field, the portaloos were really clean and well stocked.
No showers tho which we didn't mind.
And a short walk on main road to the farm itself.
We went to a Highland games event at the farm and we really enjoyed it. my teenager surprisingly enjoyed the animals and loved feeding and petting them.
Clean and tidy farm too and well looked after animals and lots of things to do great for families with all ages of children.
Overall good experience.

N'a pas aimé Nothing we really disliked other than maybe more signs were needed on the road to the campsite from the main reception.

N'a pas aimé It’s not a dislike, just an personal preference I don’t like portaloo’s

A aimé A lot of space

N'a pas aimé It’s a meadow with 4 portable toilets and 2 water taps. Almost no shadow and not apealing. The animal farm closed early (at 5 pm) so we couldn’t go.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thank you for leaving your review.

We are a pop up campsite, in a field with portaloos and drinking water. You can find our facilities on pitch up and in the welcome pack given to you on arrival.

The farm park opening times are also in the pack, 10-5 7 days a week. Your 20% voucher for farm entry was valid until the end of you stay on 14th August.

A aimé Open space is plentiful and quiet

N'a pas aimé No safe walks to anywhere off site
No pub in walkable distance
Very minimal fascilities (tap and portaloo) but very pricey
no staff ever visble
Road on one side of site, cars parked up and looked over camp

A aimé Really enjoyed our stay. Toilet’s were clean and smelt great. Plenty of room. Easy to get in and out. No problems whatsoever. Would come again.

N'a pas aimé We just got confused that we had to go to the actual farm reception and then follow the road around for the campsite itself.

A aimé Exactly as described. A large field with portaloos, water taps and bins for rubbish. A quiet site, not even the usual 4am bird calls although we did see buzzards flying above. Plenty of space to play bat/ball when we went.

It’s flat, well maintained and the gate is lockable.

The farm next door is one of the best we have been to, the animals are very well kept, plenty to do, sheep racing, ferret racing, bathing the tortoise, seeing the highland cows and reindeer, sheep and goats, the staff were friendly, a day well spent, we will be coming again and camping again!!

Also close to Matlock, we nipped into town to go to the park and get fish and chips for tea. It could be a base for a day out at Heights of Abraham or walks etc

N'a pas aimé Nothing, we knew it was wild camping and was exactly what we wanted to do with our grandson for an adventure.
