 This is a first class small campsite at a good location

Facilities are good and the pub/restaurant offers a wide choice of good food at a reasonable price.

I highly recommend this campsite and shall certainly stay here again.

 Check in was easy, just go into the pub. Quite small gravel pitches.

The toilets and showers definitely need an update. I don't think the trap in the shower had been cleared of hair for quite a long time. The mop was filthy and the water in the bucket was the same. The ladies was warm as the heating was on but it wasn't on in the mens.

The wash up area is fairly open to the elements so had to get rid of a mass of leaves before we could wash up.

The pub itself is warm and the staff and food was good

There are bus stops on the main road, which we used. The shopping village next door is also good to visit.

We paid £25 per night mon to thurs and £30 fri and sat, which is fairly reasonable but I certainly would not want to pay £40 per night in peak season.

 We stayed for two nights with mum and dad. Small site at the rear of the pub, check in is at the bar which was slow but staff were friendly and did apologise for the wait.

Site is a bit tired grass was mown but hardstanding was weedy. Was rubbish including a dog waste bag on the next pitch to us which was still there when we left!

They seemed to group everyone together although the site was nearly empty only half a dozen pitches taken on each night

Showers and toilets were ok, clean enough but a bit cold

The pub is lovely very clean and tidy, the staff were very friendly but all very young. We went in for a drink and to get dessert I ordered a pot of tea but it came with no lid on so I had to ask for one. The desserts were expensive and not very substantial but good quality

We would go again as in an excellent location with bus stops at the entrance

Good value at the moment £25 per night including ehu, going up to £30 in April and I don't think I would like it in summer it would be crowded if full the pitches are very close together and lots of trees around the site

 Lovely site, and clean and well run, also great location at a really good price for a hook up,

We'll be back again and would recommend to all our family,

The bear was a little bit pricy, but the menu looked great, but we didn't eat there, also the food was at a reasonable price,

Thank you

 Great location for Bakewell, Matlock and Chatsworth.

The site is tired looking and the facilities are basic.

We only stayed 1 night so we were ok with this. £40 a night I feel is expensive for a basic site.

Peak Village shopping centre, next door is much improved to how it was a few years back.

Reviewer: Grayba 1 review from this member

 Check in process good, pitch position poor (no sun), shower facilities adequate.

Seven of us dined at the grouse and claret and were originally given a table suitable for five, we ordered two sharing plates which never arranged with little apologies, two of our party had the sea bass which was a very small portion.

Other than that the night went well thanks to the company we were in.

 The pub and staff were great, campsite good,

Only 2 negatives for us was, not being able to have the car by the caravan ( had to be left on the pub car park)

Could do with WiFi available on the campsite not just at the pub.

Location was brilliant for exploring the local area.

 Lovely location, which we have visited many times in the past.

Very dog friendly and a great pub on site.

Just a really nice place to be.

Right next to long walks and Peak Village outlet for a bit of retail therapy.

Reviewer: Acedmu 1 review from this member

 Excellent location, staff, and pub.

But, poor bathroom facilities that need some maintenance and that ought to be updated or better still, replaced.

Some pitches are small and separate tents / gazebos are not allowed.

Reviewer: SKJJK 5 reviews from this member

 Excellent site in a great location and good facilities.

The on-site pub serves a variety of hot/cold food and drinks, with a good range of Real Ales. Food at the pub is very good value, including breakfast, lunch and evening meals.

The toilet block is in good order and very clean. So are the showers. Every pitch has EHU and the site is generally tidy and well kept.

We will be visiting again later in the year.

The site is ideally located for numerous attractions including Chatsworth, Caudwells Mill, Peak Shopping Village, Matlock, Bakewell and the Peak Rail steam railway.

Rated 9/10 for child friendliness - playground area on site but the site is bordered by a river on one side so you will need to keep an eye on younger children.

 The camp-site is lovely close to peak Village Bus on doorstep into Buxton, Matlock and beyond, great pub and superb beer garden.

Bit steep at £40 a night but ok for a Birthday treat

Reviewer: Seasid 1 review from this member

 A beautiful natural site next to a river and arched bridge, surrounded by trees and bushes.

The pub on site was wonderful with fantastic beer garden and park for children.

The shower block was warm but did need updating. Also the barrier getting in and out needs improving (we had to find the groundsman so I could get out).

Even though the site had mixed groups, adults, young children, lots of dogs it was quiet. The only thing that woke me was the morning bird song and cows in the field across the river.

The pitches are long so good for larger motorhomes but could do with being wider.

However there was enough grass area in between each pitch.

I would stay again.
