Proper camping. Loved it!!
The site is on a working farm and the only noise you hear are from the cows.
The pitches were very large with water taps close by to tents so no going back and forth to a mains water supply.

There are no kitchen or shower facilities, but the toilet is clean.

Lovely pubs close by and not far from Buxton

We will definitely return

Loved it all

Accommodated us as a group, one couple in a caravan, another in a motorhome and another in a tent. Large grass pitches, some with gravel hardstanding. Close, convenient electric and water supply to each pitch. Level on the hardstanding but slight slope on the grass. Lots of places to visit within reasonable distance. Advert said portaloo but there is now a plumbed-in toilet.

Very sad to find that the only pub in the village was no longer trading.

Beautiful, clean & well kept site. Easy instructions for check in. So lovely to be on a working farm and being around the animals.

Only 1 unisex toilet. However this was kept clean.

friendly, helpful. loved being around cows and countryside
so peaceful and tranquill

would prefer wifi and showering facilities but also appreciate it was a working farm and wifi may be costly and may take away the idea of being at peace with the countryside

The owner sent in advance the message with number of the pitch. The size of the pitch was great, there was enough space to put everything you might need, drinking water and electric power point were close to the tent, our pitch was on very level ground, drainage was brilliant. Toilet was good enough for the camping site, there were bottles with cleaning stuff , if you think something isn't clean enough for you)

The view wasn't nice at all. Our weekend was ruined, because we had two sleepless nights at this site. Actually it was restless weekend. In the day time noise of tractor didn't let me relax. Well, it's working farm and I expected some noises, but not all that much, that I won't be able to rest for a few hours a day. On Sunday morning tractor started to work about 7 o'clock, on Monday - at 5.50. It would not be all that bad, if I could sleep in the night, but, on Sunday two young couples played the music, were talking and laughing till almost midnight and then till the morning with around 15 minutes interval from one side we could hear very loud MOO and from another one the same loud BAA. My grandparents used to live not far away from the farm, and they had two own cows and a few sheeps, but I have never heard in my life that they would baa and moo all that much,like someone tried to kill them. Just before milking time cows were MOOING without stopping. Second night it was almost quiet between 2 and 4 in the morning. But is it enough two hours sleep in two nights? Obviously not. On Monday afternoon I went to work after camping and felt like I was working all weekends, never rested. People,who stayed in the caravans said that it wasn't too bad, but two young couples from two tents could not sleep the same like us. Plus our pitch was placed just opposite of the door where the cows stayed overnight. I think one morning the farmer took out the manure, because it terrible smelled. So, possible this site is suitable for caravans only. When I was looking for the camping site I saw in description the worlds "peaceful" and "adults only" it's why I chosen this one. "Peaceful" didn't relate to our stay unfortunately.
