Polubione The rope-swing and hammock in the wooded enclosure was a nice surprise. We found a quiet corner although slightly uneven (just like our garden) facilities were exactly as stated. Even though it was fairly popular (including with a large group of younger converted van campers) everyone was very respectful and calm after about 10pm (unlike the campsite up the road); the gentle strums of an acoustic guitarists around a campfire helped lull my daughter to sleep

Niepolubione Toilet taps very cold and fast, so careful not to drench yasen!
Sadly there were no other children were in our side of the field, which can't be helped and we missed the ice cream van, as were still tryna carry my daughter home from the Lathkill hotel and escape yappy farmhouse dogs!

Polubione I liked the wild camping element where there was just toilets and water. I had a beautiful view over Lathkill Dale in my microcamper over the very sunny May bank holiday.

The second day it became very busy and I was expecting a lot of noise, but there was none, and everyone was quiet and respectful.

I walked the mile to Over Haddon the first day, admiring the stunning views, and had a drink and meal overlooking the dale.

Neil the owner of the site, and was very helpful, recommended the circular walk through Lathkill Dale, which was a spectacular walk through a forest, past a river and small waterfalls. Take the left turning out of the site and walk half a mile to Mill Farm to start the walk and follow the pathway to Over Haddon and back to the campsite. It’s well worth it.

Polubione Loads of space, beautiful scenery and was lovely to see the lambs. Toilets clean but a bit drafty on the nether regions. Bring own loo roll. Really quiet, peaceful and beautiful spot to chill and unwind.

Niepolubione The drafty toilets, bearable in nice weather, if not quite refreshing but at night time was a bit of shock to the system.

Polubione Peaceful, quiet, hardly any other campers despite the sunny weather and bank holiday weekend. Lots of options to choose your own pitch

Polubione Very pleasant quiet site, just above the wonderful Lathkill limestone gorge. Nice and simple, informal. Good to be able to have a camp fire.

Niepolubione Loos and washing up area is very basic, not too clean. We happened to have some very noisy neighbours till the early hours which was not pleasant, though not the fault of the site.

Polubione We loved it. Perfect site for wild camping. Owner very friendly and the ice cream van was a lovely surprise.
Good walk into Bakewell if you like walking. Worth it to avoid the congested car parks.
Definately booking again 😃

Niepolubione Campers in car next to us obviously couldnt walk to the toilet and chose to use the area next to the big tree to open their bowels. Disgusting behaviour and so disrespectful to those around them.
