The girl who worked at reception was very helpful and pleasant. views from the campsite were quite nice, especially during sunrise.

Short version:
Friendly staff, unpleasant owner, wouldn't recommend giving them business.

Detailed version:
The listing states that between January and April, shower use is not guaranteed, which implies that at other times showers are guaranteed. Unfortunately, this wasn’t the case during our stay. We booked from the 23rd–25th of December and were informed on arrival that the showers were not available.

We decided to stay for one night and checked out early on the morning of the 24th. When we politely asked for a refund for the remaining night, the girl who worked on reception, who was very pleasant and helpful—asked the owner if this was possible. The owner outright refused, did not engage in any conversation with us, and simply shook his head repeating: "no" and walked past as if he couldn’t care less.

Problems can happen, and that’s understandable, but the owner’s dismissive attitude toward a reasonable and polite request for a refund due to unforeseen shower issues was frustrating. If no issues arise, I’m sure a good time can be had at this site. However, if problems do occur, it’s highly unlikely the owner is capable of handling them in a friendly or reasonable manner. For this reason, I can’t recommend this campsite.

Location

–

Good location in proximity to Peak District- Bakewell/Matlock.

Cosy but enough space for a couple and a dog.

Glasses, crockery, hop provided.
Sponge and washing up liquid also provided.

Cute bar/cafe/shop on site.

Toilets very close and clean.

The lamp was very dim and needed our phone torch to see anything. Asked and got some more batteries eventually but still quite dark.
The heater is on an ethanol burner but need at least 2 bottles (which they provide but asked for the second). Therefore, a little chilly in the morning, but blankets on top of duvet provided. This would not be an issue in the summer.

I would bring a bin bag for rubbish.

The friendly atmosphere and great service. The owners are so welcoming. Lovely farm shop and great coffee and homemade cakes on offer.

The toilets are a bit cramped and I think the ladies toilet doors have a few issues but there's nothing I dislike about this place.

Staff were lovely and very helpful.
Toilets and showers easily accessible.
Beautiful view from the site.
