Reviewer: Shawn7 1 review from this member

 Well cared for site, greeted and welcomed then had facilities explained to us. Had large spotless hard standing pitch with electric and water close by.

Ample pot washing facilities and 2 toilet/shower blocks that had attendants cleaning them regularly. The hand dryer wasn't working in one but didn't know if it had been reported.

Some mess in toilets but that was down to misuse by visitors. Static homes all very tidy and cared for.

Village easy walking distance and lots to see and do. Only gripe was road noise that was there unusually all through the night but not continuous.

Lovely site in all, enjoyable.

 Very clean and peaceful site with good quality facilities.

Owners and other visitors were polite and friendly.

Great location with access to the peaks and rail links to Sheffield and Manchester.

Unfortunately loud building work started at 8. 30am which we weren’t told about in advance.

Reviewer: Fionah 1 review from this member

 Very Warm welcome. Clean facilities would highly recommend.

We had a small tent and were fitted in, in a small spot perfect for what we needed. Space for car and not too close to others.

Well spaced areas for motor homes and caravans.

Great location for all the peek area.

Friendly and helpful staff.

Hope there will be space for us again

 A great site convenient for walking, cycling.

Close to the train station and bus stops.

The river is tantalising but not accessible though the weir at Bamford Mill is delightful.

The site will soon be for park homes rather than touring vans.

Make the most of it.

Reviewer: Leldav 1 review from this member

 This was the 2nd time I'd stayed at Swallowholme caravan site.

We received a warm welcome, the site was well kept and pitches are level.

The toilet block has free showers and was immaculate.

This is a dog free site which we prefer.

The site is ideally situated for exploring the northern end of the Peak District.

We would recommend.

Will definitely stay here again.

Reviewer: Lauren 1 review from this member

 Absolutely loved this campsite from moment we checked in to checking out. Owners are very friendly and accommodating.

The site itself is kept in excellent working order.

Very beautiful area, great for walking, going to local pub Angler's Rest,

The Bird Cafe is a short walk away too amongst other options that we didn't have time to experience all of but will be back.

The showers are great, hot water for the win! And decent pressure. The bathrooms are kept very clean. There is also a small communal sink area to clean your dishes with two sinks.

It is close to the train station too which is great if you want to travel about a bit, without having to take the car.

Loved Swallowholme camping, thank you for the great experience.

Highly recommend.

 Great, shown to pitch on arrival.

Clean and tidy site, toilets and showers very clean and fabulous club house with live entertainment, that was a bonus.

Food served on site and drinks reasonably priced. Fob for toilet block and barrier.

10 minute walk to beach and supermarket close to site.

Bus passes at the site entrance into the town.

Peaceful atmosphere on site and static owners very friendly.

 The site owner was charming and showed us to our pitch.

The site is very tidy despite ongoing improvements to accommodate future mobile homes.

Free fly fishing on the River Derwent within 15m of our pitch.

Facilities were exceptionally clean.

Would recommend to others.

 Just a few tourers but retains that tourer-community feel.

Small numbers on days we were there,

But super friendly and beautifully kept and appointed.

Reviewer: JennyGJ 2 reviews from this member

 Lovely little site with immaculate facilities, beautiful landscaping & very helpful owners.

Well situated in terms of walks from the door, bus & train connections to more prime walking locations.

The community pub/ post office/ cafe is a gem & worth supporting.

The only drawback to Swallowholme is the number of trains using the line which runs right next to the site. OK during waking hours (though not ideal) but there are several freight trains throughout the night & for some unaccountable reason they find it necessary to use an American-style hooter even though they must be the only thing on the line so one of us who is a light sleeper had very disrupted nights.

This is the only reason we haven’t given Swallowholme full marks all round & might hesitate to revisit.

 A nice lady accepted us,

We don't mind the noises of the trains in the daytime,

It's quiet in the night,

The best camping site for visiting Bamford Edge.
