Hi Im trying to find a campsite within 30 mins of Leek. Im trying to arrange a school hol break near to OHs work so that we can extend the weekend a bit. The ability to walk into a pleasant village with a few shops maybe a pub/restaurant would be great. Play area essential with good clean showerblock & grass pitches.
I've done the usual campsite search & area searches on here but not being familiar with this part of the country and the roads Im not really getting anywhere
Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!
There is a C&CC site just outside Leek, about 5 minutes drive from Leek itself and near to Tittesworth Reservoir, which was lovely, great play area for the kids.

Its just called Leek Camping and Caravanning Club site, just north of leek. Plenty of grass pitches for tents.

leek ccc site is nice clean faclities are you a member of the ccc have a look on campsite search
Well we've decided to compromise a bit on location and have gone for Rivendale in Ashbourne which is still fairly close to OH's work & plenty for me and the kids to to whilst he works on the Friday. I've asked for a large pitch as Im a bit worried about a few 'packed in like sardines at peak times' comment but looks good overall.

No, you don't...but there is a non-member pitch fee of (I think) £7.10pn, so if you're staying (or using other Club sites) for a week or more it would work out cheaper to join. I'm sure the wardens will advise you of the best option.
Sorry, can't answer your other questions as I've not stayed there, but you might get an idea from UKCS members' reviews here.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
