Dearden Wood

喜欢: Absolutely amazing campsite, great sized pitches allowing different types of set ups. Excellent facilities kept clean and accessible by code on arrival. Toilets and a shower. Also a kitchen area for washing up, has kettle, toaster, microwave and fridge. Also sockets if you need anything charging up. Very peaceful site listening to the birds chirping away, some lovely walks around the forest. Few mins drive from local village and about 5-10 mins from more amenities. There is a communal firepit picnic bench etc. Also fire pits and wood can be purchased at the site. Absolutely loved my time here and can’t wait to come back for the Friday pizza night. Excellent communication by txt message from Jessy who runs the site, great customer service.

不喜欢: Couldn’t fault this place it’s brilliant

喜欢: We loved the campsite, the pitches and amenties were clean and tidy. Shortly after arrival we were greeted by Jessie, who gave us loads of information about local walks, pubs and places to eat in the village and surrounding area. The walk through Dearden woods was pleasant and peaceful, we didn't venture up onto the moors but there is easy access just up the road from the site. The nearby Waterfall at Dearden Brooke is picturesque and well worth a visit. With a little patience there are loads of opportunities to watch the local wildlife from your pitch.

不喜欢: The code system for the toilets was a little irrating due to my poor memory for numbers but an understandable inconvenience.

喜欢: Liked the setting and informal vibe. I really liked the ethos of the sites management run as a not for profit organisation putting the money back into the site.

不喜欢: Could have really done with the toilet code earlier but I guess that was my fault for not asking.

喜欢: Really nice small site, short walk to the lovely river and amazing views.
The welcome we received was second to none and very informative with a real passion for the business.
Price for what you get was brilliant.
Toilets clean, great indoor washing facilities.

不喜欢: Disliked nothing about the actual campsite, unfortunately you cannot pick the clientele.
The van across from us, turned up and started drinking straight away, then went out driving at 9pm !! Literally did not shut up from 3pm until gone 2am, smoking weed and just being the loudest people in the entire world.
The worst part about this though was that they absolutely trashed the woodland and trees next to the vans (private cordoned part) for firewood. Spent from 7pm until 2am smashing, sawing and burning your trees.
Obviously the owners cannot police the site at night and I don't blame them for this.

来自经理: Hi Adam, thanks so much for your review and really glad that you loved the site and your welcome 🥰

I can only apologise for the experience you have had with some other customers. We generally have a lovely bunch of quiet people on site and very rarely have this problem. We categorically do not allow recreational drugs on site and also do not appreciate people chopping down our woodland for firewood. We have spent many years regenerating and replanting saplings, which is why we have areas of our woods not open to the public.

I have left you a voicemail and hope to catch up with you regarding this soon. I can then investigate things further.

喜欢: We stayed at Dearden Wood for the weekend and had a fantastic experience. From the moment we arrived, we were given a warm welcome at this small, peaceful, and family-friendly site. The atmosphere was incredibly relaxed and inviting—perfect for a weekend escape.

One of the highlights was the Friday night pizzas, which were absolutely delicious and served in a lovely communal setting with the local community. It was a great way to start the weekend and connect with others.

Another great feature is the beautiful waterfall and plunge pool within walking distance—perfect for a refreshing dip and a bit of adventure in nature.

The owners and staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful throughout our stay, making us feel right at home. We’ll definitely be coming back!

来自经理: Hi Paul, thanks for your review, really glad you enjoyed your stay.

Thankfully, with us not being a commercial site, we can offer families the opportunity to enjoy time outside around a campfire and we encourage people to cook outside in nature. We feel it encourages children to come away from screens and technology and partners to spend much needed time with eachother in our busy lives. We know it's not for everyone, but hopefully it didn't impact your stay too much 😊

Our facilities are different again to your commercial sites, they are basic and provide customers with what they need and we keep them nice and clean 😊

We value our customers and always provide the best customer service that we can do as a small business, we individually check people in between working ours and enjoy taking time to chat with our customers too.

Hopefully see you again soon!
