 The campsite was lovely.
Spacious and secluded pitches that afforded a degree of privacy.
Showers and toilets clean. Staff very friendly and accommodating.
Highly recommended and would definitely stay again.

Nice quiet campsite with good and clean amenities.
Good location with lovely walks on the doorstep.
Only negative was our pitch was right by the road so was a little bit of traffic noise

Excellent site, friendly and helpful staff, and with great location.
The tent fields are flat with soft ground (easy to pitch).
It is very close to the Bull's Head and to the head of Lathkill Dale.
We will be back!

Great facilities: good toilets/showers which were super clean, even though it was fairly wet during our stay.
Washing up facilities similarly high standard.
Pitches were excellent. Level, well drained and nicely separated by hedgerows to give a good level of privacy.
Safe and quick walk to the village (pub and cafe).
Only slight negative is that the tent pitches are by the road, which was surprisingly busy. So would recommend ear plugs.
Overall, a great little campsite that is well managed and close to the most important camping facility. The pub :-)

The campsite was fantastic! We were a group of 4 friends staying in 3 tents and had a large pitch all to ourselves with amazing views over the surrounding countryside.
The pitch was fairly private surrounded by hedges. It had drinking water close by and power.
The showers and toilets were extremely clean, bright and in great condition and the hot water was great.
There was great lighting leading from the pitch to the shared facilities, including the really good washing up area. It was the first time my friends have been to a campsite and we were all extremely impressed with the pre-booking, care taken with covid restrictions and cleanliness.
We will definitely be booking this site again.
Also a perfect location for great walking through and around Monyash and Lathkil Dale.

Excellent! We had a lovely weekend at lathkill dale campground.
Met on arrival by Lauren, shown to our pitch which was generous with lovely views. The site is very well kept, peaceful and is set out really well.
We will definitely return

Welcoming owners, fabulous views, peaceful campsite, dogs and campfires allowed, great walks straight from the site and spotlessly clean facilities.
Absolutely loved it and very glad we've booked in 3 times this year.
My only complaint is the nearest pub doesn't open until 17th May! But you can get ice-creams, a pint of draught and cafe food at the cafe next door to it.
Owners seem a bit overly concerned about child-safety but perhaps they have had bad experiences. They would rather we followed our 11 year old son around, but we'd rather they explored the campsite without us!

Lathkill Dale campsite was wonderful. Our tent pitch gave us lots of space and privacy, with a wooden bench to enjoy our breakfast on each morning.
The facilities are great, clean with hot water for the showers and washing up etc. And easy to find as the path to them is lit up with fairly lights.
It was peaceful too, surrounded by farmland. We had walks in mind already so drove to their start points but I'm sure there are beautiful walks nearby too.
There was a pub about 7 mins walk away which was great too! Absolutely no complaints, we had a lovely weekend!

Well set up, but noisy with vehicles coming and going from the site.
Apart from the walk through Lathkill Dale, you have to leave the site to see anything in Derbyshire.

Quiet campsite with excellent and very clean facilities. Felt very safe during the current crisis.
We were met by very helpful staff on arrival.
Excellent friendly pub a short walk away.

This is a lovely campsite in a lovely location. Showers and toilet block very clean. It had a washing up area with loads of hot water. Fridge/freezers as well for storing food. C
Ampsite was zoned off into lovely little pitches with hedging around so felt nice and private. Our pitch had electrical point and all pitches seem to have picnic table as well.
Just on outskirts of village where there is a lovely pub/restaurant.
Scenery is beautiful with loads of amazing walking routes on doorstep. Staff were helpful with any enquiries we had.
We will visit again and would recommend Lathkill Dale.

From start to finish could not fault this site, we were met by Gary on arrival who showed us to our pitch.
We could not have asked for a better more private pitch which both my husband & I & daughter & partner shared on our own.
We were 2 mins away from all the facilities which were top class & kept to a very high standard with sanitising stations etc.
We have travelled extensively around Europe campsites & this site certainly has all the amenities that you could ask for.
I have recommended the site to friends & will definitely be returning.

The site is a lovely setting and convenient for Bakewell and very close to the top of Lathkilldale for beautiful walks.
The campsite owners were there to meet us when we arrived and when we said there was a storm due and we would like a more sheltered spot for our large tents, they offered us a slightly more protected location.
Despite this, we had four tent poles broken in the night due to the 45mph gusts of wind. Fortunately neither of our tents collapsed completely due to the broken poles, as there was heavy rain as well as wind. To be fair, this weather must have been exceptional in August.
Speaking generally, the site was well-organised for Covid safety, clean and quiet, and it was great to have so much space on the pitch.
Because we had heavy rain on a number of days, trekking down to the shower and washing-up facilities did get a bit tiresome, but the charming hillside layout of the site made up for it.
However, one big downside for me was not being able to get a wi-fi connection in our tent despite having paid the £10 fee for a week. This presumably was because we were out of range up the hill (and going to stand in the rain at the shower block at the bottom of the hill was not an option). It had a big impact because it made it difficult to plan outings or book visits to places or restaurants when we had assumed wi-fi would be available. If we had known, we would have done a lot more preparation beforehand at home.
Overall, in different (weather) circumstances, I would be more than happy to return to this site.
