Reviewer: Fawlke 1 review from this member

 Lovely site, we went during the week and stayed on the touring site so the ground was lovely and flat. Very quiet, toilets were clean and regularly inspected, hot water was readily available so you didn’t have to wait long. Morrison’s was really near to pick up a few bits for evening meals. Great views, have never felt anything so peaceful, considering this was my first trip I would definitely go again.

 We stayed here for the weekend with friends, great site really friendly owners and very helpful. Toilets and showers are very clean and we never had to queue! Good playground for the kids which was very popular. Walked to Buxton wish we had more time there what a beautiful place, loads of history, loads of shops everything you need. Went to the local pub on Saturday night again friendly people, good beer and good laughs. Will definitely go back to this site, we all loved it !

 Stayed for one night and many grandson loved it! He wants to go back for his summer holiday. Pleasant clean site, reasonably priced and enjoyed the break. We will return, its not too far from us and just far enough to 'get away' it all,

Morrison's is not too far and beautiful scenery and walks. Buxton is a lovely place to visit.

The only downside was the 10pm noise restriction, there was still some children playing after this time

Reviewer: SandraScot1 35 reviews from this member

 Originally thought what a great site. You can walk into buxton in about 20 mins. Site is under a viaduct, terraced so not all level. Static vans on the lower level and tourers/motor homes on the next. Very popular site and we phoned ahead to book for the Thursday and Friday nights and were told we had the last hard standing pitch. Thursday was beautifully quiet, check in went smoothly and as this is the last leg of our one month uk trip was also able to catch up with laundry etc. Toilets and showers immaculate. Friday had the weekenders arriving and before long. It was like the M25! We own a French 'van so the door is on the opposite side. By Friday pm we were hemmed in on both sides by caravans with enormous awnings and the obligatory 4x4 so good job we don't take up much room, We had to move our tables and chairs to make room for the new arrivals on the other side. They were meeting up with friends and sat up until the wee small hours with music blasting until 11. 30pm. There are signs on site about noise after certain hours but that doesn't help when you are kept awake by noisy neighbours. We were charged £20 plus £3 per night for the dog! The most expensive we have paid for our pooch. So black marks against the site for the excessive charge for the dog and the lack of space allotted to us and general encroachment as the site got busier. I thought there was a general health and safety regs for distances between units on site for fire regulations but that did not apply to us. I don't normally complain about sites but noise levels after 11. 30pm don't go down well and finding your space availability shrinking purely due to new arrivals shouldn't happen so its thumbs down to this site unfortunately.

 Lovely site! The Owners are friendly and very welcoming. The site is Clean and well maintained with good facilities. Showers are nice and hot but not very powerful. The Toilet blocks are nice and clean. The views from the electric hook up area are lovely. The pitches are nice and roomy so it doesn't feel cramped and feels private. Only 5 mins drive into Buxton and there is a Morrisons nearby. Loads to do in the local area. We will be returning and I would definitely recommend this site.

 We received a very friendly greeting from the owners, the resident wardens; they couldn't have been more helpful. The pitches are roomy and feel very open but they not all flat which caused a bit a problem as even with a ramp five inches high the van was not level from side to side. The washrooms are adequate and clean never any queuing although the site was only a third full. May be a problem when fully pitched. The site was well groomed and in a good location and in a central for touring the peak district. It is a fifteen minute walk into Buxton of five minutes by car. Very tidy and well run site but a bit pricey.

Reviewer: Malcnwendy 2 reviews from this member

 Having booked a caravan elsewhere, we were horrified on arrival at the state of the caravan and its surroundings. We were not prepared to stay there so we left to find alternative accommodation. On driving through Buxton we happened upon the site at Lime tree Park and visited the reception hoping something was available.

We received a very friendly greeting from the owners, the resident wardens, they couldn't have been more helpful and they made available a modern clean comfortable van.

The site was immaculate and in a beautiful location and in a central position to facilitate our daily tours around the peak.

We enjoyed our stay so much we have booked again for next year.

We would like to thank the owners and all the camp staff for saving our holiday and making it so enjoyable.

Reviewer: Debbienicola 21 reviews from this member

 Just back from 3 nights camping. We were on the EHU field with a spacious pitch and lovely views across the fields. We were greeted with big smiles all round and they couldn't do enough for you. We ordered a BBQ meat pack which was ready for us from our day trip to Abrahams Height.

There is a small games room with Pool table, TV etc. There is also a play area but my 12 year old didn't bother with it. You can also borrow DVDs from the shop.

This is a good site to use as a base for exploring Derbyshire. Bakewell approx 20 min drive. There is a Morrison's supermarket within a 5min walk from the site. We also parked at Morrison's and walked into town, saving on Pay and Display. The camp site also have a few discount tickets which we took advantage of.

All in all a good site and very quiet. The only negative I feel is the showers need desperately updating although very clean and I think they need to consider recycling facilities.

 Stayed over the May Bank holiday weekend. This site has a great location with walks on the door step. It is a very clean & tidy site. Staff were often seen emptying the dustbins and litter picking. The facilities were impeccably clean but were challenged over this weekend. There is a shop on site and plenty of tourist info in reception. It's a family friendly site too with a play area. Buxton is within walking distance and a trip to Bakewell for a pudding is a must!

Reviewer: UNGOWER 2 reviews from this member

 Well what a great site it was so friendly we did not want to leave. The wardens were great so helpful. The site is in a lovely position with nice views. The toilet is clean there is a nice games room, plenty of information of the area, Buxton is only a short walk with plenty of shops and pubs / places to eat. We would recommend this site to anyone we will be back next time we will take are granddaughters. Well done to everyone there for a lovely time

Reviewer: Csunshine 2 reviews from this member

 We just spent a lovely weekend at Lime Tree Park with friends. It's a great site and the owners were friendly from booking to leaving. We had booked a static, a touring pitch and a tent pitch as we were a large party with children and babies.

The static was great, well appointed and clean and ideal for the 3 adults and 3 children that stayed in it. Our touring pitch was fine, with lovely views and we had a nice grassy pitch next to us for our friends in a tent.

I must admit we don't normally stay on large sites like this as we find them too noisy and too tightly packed in. This site was very quiet though so can't complain about that.

The toilet block was well equipped and has a lock on so you need a code from reception to get in. The code is different for the baby change facilities! This room is lovely though, it has a normal sink and one that you can use as a baby bath which is great for young babies.

The women's toilet block is fine, nice and clean with music playing all the time. I used the shower in there one day, but the block was very cold. I started using the end shower, but had to move as the water pressure was really low.

There is a dog walk area where you can let them off leads, however we have two border collies and with all the sheep around I decided to keep them on a lead. If you go to reception, they will give you directions for a farm walk, which you can do from the site and is great for the dogs and has lovely views - takes around 30 mins if you take it gently.

All in all a great site and if we were another big party I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

 We spent a lovely snowy Easter weekend at Lime Tree Park. The campsite is ideally located for day trips to Buxton, Bakewell, Chatsworth House Estate and the stunning Derbyshire countryside as well as plenty of local country pubs and amenities. The site itself, albeit quiet due to the snow at the time of our stay, is well equipped and we were given a warm welcome despite the freezing temperatures outside. We fully recommend this site for a family break or holiday. 


Date of Visit: April 2013 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Yvonne B 17 reviews from this member

 We spent a wet, cold weekend in April here.

Having read reviews of this site we were somewhat disappointed. Yes the site is clean & tidy. The staff are friendly & helpful. The location is stunning.

What the reviews did not say is the touring area is on top of a hill. This is not good when staying in a campervan. Although we moved to a slightly flatter pitch we spent the whole weekend walking up hill & not being able to use our cooker.

We thought the site was expensive, it was £25 per night for us in camper van. The family members, who joined us, were charged the same for a night in a tent, with no electric hook up!

The shower block was clean, tidy & well maintained, with free showers. But a lack of water pressure meant the water come out of shower at a dribble, very disappointed as the appearance of block is very nice.

In order to use the laundry facilities we had to carry washing down a steep hill & back up after wards, as the laundry is next to reception.

The site has too many rules, there is a list of them on the shower block. We felt we could not relax as we had to keep constant watch over our dog, grand children & whisper after 10pm.

Do not intend on returning to this site.

Reviewer: Ukjason06 1 review from this member

 Wonderful site!

Arrived not knowing what to expect as a first timer using a local site as a trial run before venturing further afield and could not have been more warmly welcomed. The receptionist was helpful and chatty and gave me some good tips on general tenting etiquette and how to make life a bit easier. The warden then took the time to show me to our pitch personally and showed us the amenities which seemed well looked after and clean. Then he even showed me where I was going wrong with my tent!

As a local to the area I know Buxton but there was a great range of leaflets and information on things to do around and in town. The only thing that put a damper on the stay was the weather but I suppose you can't expect miracles!

All in all a lovely site and I hope the main event lives up to the taster we had!

Reviewer: Tilly26may 16 reviews from this member

 Arrived to a really friendly reception which was genuine and informative. We were shown to our pitch which was great, well spaced out on hard standing with bit of grass to the side. We had fantastic views of the viaduct and the surrounding countryside.

The water point was close and the toilet block just a minutes walk. There was a family bathroom plus good sized toilets and shower room which had free flowing hot water with places to put and hang things. It was absolutely immaculate. It had fresh flowers and piped radio music with hairdryers soaps and creams - lovely! The site was busy but really quiet at night. Its in a great spot for getting away from it all and being able to walk into town.

Plenty of variety of pubs, shops restaurants, gift shops and places of interest. If you want to have a nice meal then try and book early cos they get booked up we went in the Chinese which was good value and tasty. Taxi's are cheap too £3.50 right into the site. The site is easy to find and no problems with access.

This is a gem of a site in a lovely part of the country, would definitely recommend to anybody. The only people I might hesitate to recommend to is young families as there didn't seem to be a lot to do for little ones which suits us as a couple just fine.
