The location is epic. Honestly.

Great location, able to walk to the town and many walking routes to take into the peaks
Toilet facilities very clean. As a solo camper, felt safe too

Great place, well looked after. We had an amazing time and it's not the first time we went there. This is because this camping site is one if the best ones. With the owner being reachable and ever so helpful. We had a fire pit in the evening that had made whole experience so much better.

Great campsite! Perfect location. Facilities superb. Helpful owner.

Ideal location and lovely views, close to town and Clean facilities. Campsite not over crowded with plenty of space at a reasonable price .

Nothing really only probably another washing up sink .

Second visit to Castleton Camping and following our trip previously, we had no hesitation about coming back to the same site, despite others offering additional amenities, such as showers.
Decent pitch offering with the route to Mam Tor close by, great friendly atmosphere with fellow campers, and excellent hosts and staff. Noticed the upgraded toilets which made a big difference for the kids with us, and made use of the honesty box which was well stocked. Will be back again next year!

Large field in a perfect spot for Mam Tor hikes.

Decently priced too, even at late notice.

A well-stocked honesty box and a lovely coffee trailer on the weekends was a really nice touch.

The site is overall great, we had an amazing time using it as a base camp for our hikes - but there are a few things you'll want to keep in mind, especially during peak times:

The toilet situation is pretty dire - you can't tell when someone's using the toilet, so you constantly have people trying the door while you're in there. The toilets were a bit knackered, too, but at least they were (somewhat) clean.

A lady drives round each pitch in a range rover every morning/night, and she will charge you more if you have more than one tent per pitch - something we didn't realise, so good to keep that in mind. Quite funny as our small, close-knit tents were taking up less room than most other pitches, but rules are rules I suppose - just something to keep in mind if you're travelling as a group.

It's supposedly a 'quiet site', but we had it all during our stay - people blasting music, having full-on shouting matches at 1am, and people getting super drunk and being very loud until the early hours of the morning. Wasn't a huge issue for us - we were there at a peak time, so it's to be expected really. Just something to consider if you're camping with kids, etc.

Simple and easy, no frills camping at a good price. Very spacious even on Bank Holiday weekend.

No showers, but that was specified so wasn't a shock!

Absolutely loved it thankyou
