Date of Visit: June 2023  Confirmed Booking Unit:  Tent
Nights stayed: 4 Travelling as:  Other
Reviewer: Jcjbears 13 reviews from this member

 My daughter and I returned here for 4 nights having stayed here in 2021.

Both times, we enjoyed the friendly welcome from Sara and the quiet, adults only, relaxed nature of the site with well spaced out pitches and clean facilities (2 toilets, one with it's own hand basin, 2 other hand basins and one very good shower: all unisex).

The washing up area had hot water and was under cover. The view across the valley and the sunsets - weather permitting! - are wonderful.

The location is great for exploring The Peak District and the Black Horse pub is a pleasant walk, if you take a slight detour using the quieter roads (straight across the crossroads on leaving the site, then turn right) serving excellent meals.

There is also another pub and a lovely farm shop in the village.

Our only reasons for not giving 10* are the noise from the adjacent A517, which is constant throughout the day, from early in the morning and into the evening, although it does quieten down overnight, and the fact that the non-EHU pitches are rather exposed to the wind. The latter ensures fantastic views but can be a problem in inclement weather!

Pitches are allocated, so we couldn't choose a more sheltered spot further from the road.

Reviewer: St.bernard 11 reviews from this member

 Had a lovely stay using one of the three pods they have. Nice and comfortable they are too. Walked around Carsington Water.

Visited Buxton, Belper, Matlock and Bakewell. All within a half hour drive away.

Love this site. Owners Sara and Peter extremely helpful.

Facilities at the site are exceptionally clean as was the site.

I will be back again.

Reviewer: Mario snr 28 reviews from this member

 Very good stay, helpful and friendly family, clean and tidy site, with some good facilities with showers and toilets.

Minor road noise and very useful for touring around good local pub with very nice meals.

With the way things have gone they have had to put in electricity meters on each pitch which is a shame, but I think that this is the way-things going now unfortunately.

More than happy to return.

Reviewer: Mickrr 1 review from this member

 Had a lovely stay here. The owners are so helpful and very friendly. The facilities are good and kept very clean.

The site is open and the nearby wind turbines about 4 miles away are a bit of a giveaway that it can be breezy at times (they are not very visible so certainly don't make an eyesore) Nearby is Carsington Water - I nearly cycled there but ran out of time. Worth a cycle around.

The site is about midway between Belper and Ashbourne - both pleasant towns and good shopping - Sainsbury's, Aldi and Morrisons and at Ashbourne there starts the Tissington trail for a cycle on an old railway line so gentle gradients.

Went to nearby pub The Black Horse and had a good meal. It's about a quarter of a mile away but on a fast road so be careful if you walk there.

There is a small convenience store in the local pub half a mile away.

All in all, a good site in a good place with a good outlook over the local countryside.

 Had a great stay, owners very friendly and helpful.

Dog walking great.

Our only preference would have been separate facilities for gents and ladies.

We will be back soon.

Reviewer: Marked 16 reviews from this member

 This is a fantastic site for the few, and just relaxing.

Very friendly and helpful couple with the booking and greeting, although the site is basic, two loos are one shower, if the shower is occupied a external red light comes on to tell you, and there is only five pitches, we didn't have to queue once.

But a great base to explore the local area (Ashbourne only 10mins by car, Ecclesbourne railway, Carrsington water) should you wish to leave the site/ drag yourself away from the view.

Just watch yourself when leaving, edging out onto a fast road with the high hedges, Very good value for money. Cheers.

 Very nice location and hosts, beautiful outlook over the countryside.

Facilities simple but adequate with good flat hardstanding and grassed areas between units.

Pub a short walk away with nice ales. And decent meals. Will visit again if we are in the area,

Thanks to Sara for a being very helpful with all the communications!
