Location - lovely spot. No midges! Spacious field. Food van serving (limited) hot food.

On this occasion I would say the facilities were over-booked. People naturally like to camp around the edge of a field but there wasn't enough room for that. And I don't think there were enough rest-rooms for the number of people. There was no signage from the road so I had to make assumption that camp site was located next to farm house. And finally, I was told to report to farm house on arrival but no answer.

Can choose your own pitch. Easy check in at the farmhouse. Facilities are okay. Pot wash area, fridges, 1 shower per gender. Great location, local village 10 min drive, close to Mam tor and plenty of other walks nearby. Flat pitches.

Quiet hour rules aren’t enforced. It is supposed quiet from 10pm onwards, as with most campsites, - this is not the case whatsoever.
First night, our neighbouring campers had music blaring until 1.30am, singing, obnoxiously loud talking, fire still going. They were an older couple and should have known better.
Second night, a group of young adults again music blaring, loud singing, until 2am. People being sick next to our tent. Balls and Frisbees hitting our car and tent. 1.30am they run around screaming and fall onto our tent.
Another person at 1.30am lost their dog for the 2nd time and was screaming and shouting all over the campsite.

Music alone would not have been an issue, it’s the other childish behaviour that ruins it. We got no sleep because of this.

It sounds like this occurs a lot reading the other reviews. There was no respect for other campers and rules don’t appear to be enforced.

Wouldn’t come here unless you’re fine with being up all night disrupted. We won’t be returning sadly as it’s a great location other than that.

Showers and toilets are a bit grubby but you are camping so it’s to be expected.

Great location

The site was in my opinion way overbooked, the last time I stayed here they had another field open which made it easier for everyone to find a nice pitch.

The facilities were good so no complaints there.

I feel like staff should be checking what is going on more, there was a large group of men kicking footballs at people's cars and tents and throwing glass bottles around the field and nothing was done by members of staff.

A drunken man kicking tents around and shouting until 4am because he'd lost his dog meant that we didn't get any sleep at all. This went on for hours.

Previous stays on this campsite have been really nice but after everything going on last night, I won't be returning or recommending it to anybody else.

Nice big field. Great location for walks.
Peaceful place, just birds and sheep .

Could do with a water pipe at least in the field. We were in a motorhome and couldn't take the vehicle into the yard to fill.

large field, beautiful views

1, no markings for pitches so while we were away people pitched within 18inches of our guy ropes both sides.
2, on our first night 50 teenagers arrived and pitched. When asked we were told they would leave in the morning, so we decided to stay and put up with the shouting and screaming involved with them playing football etc
3, on second night over 40 teenagers arrived and pitched they were even noisier
4, on third night over 60 teenagers pitched haphazardly and this time the leaders of this group organised screaming games until after 10:30
5, on the fourth night two groups of teenagers who didn't speak English pitched and screamed, shouted in a different language while entertaining themselves.

Clearly these scout and D of E groups pre booked. We only booked three days before we travelled so WHY did the site accept our booking KNOWING the site was going to be inundated with teenagers who wanted nothing better than to enjoy themselves and let off steam...which we dont actually have a problem with. Our problem was that we would NEVER have gone or even stayed on that site if we had known how busy and disturbing it would be. When my partner spoke to the owner on our fourth night to ask how many more groups were coming he was told no more. So imagine our surprise when on our 5th night another group of 40 arrived. they were then sent to pitch in an adjacent field, so it was just the noise and bad language of the leaders that troubled us.

Quiet beautiful location.
A really simple basic site with amazing views, clean and tidy
What’s not to like!

Lovely remote site but close to Castleton
Spacious pitches

Duke of Edinburgh scheme was there first night so quite noisy, went quiet from approx 1015

Easy check in, just a warning, you'll open the gate from the main road. Being a solo traveller with a dog, slight nerve wracking but theres a lay by to pull into to get it open. Drive all the way down, turn left, then left again pick your pitch and then check.

Toilets aren't far from the campsite, clean and well stocked

Simple, cheap and efficne

The gates a bit squeaky and if you chooses the hedges to shield from the wind, pick the furtheest spot away.

Bit of signage on the road for the campsite would be nice.

Wonderful location for access to the Vale of Edale onand Castleton and nestled above the stunning Winnats Pass. Quiet and peaceful during the week days. No set pitches so free to choose your own.

Noisy and chaotic on the weekend with someone pitching their tent 3 foot in front of my Motorhome making it difficult to exit the pitch. Although I didn't need the facilities they are clearly woefully insufficient when the site is full.
