 Very unhappy with this site, We were informed that there were 'No issues' with the site after the heavy rain fall. We were charged £25 including hook up, the hook up was up a hill (so not level) and with all the rain we had had we struggled to get to the top to access the 1 post with 4 electric points on.
The grass was too long and when the other 3 units arrived to use the electric point we were like sardines in a tin.
There is a train track at the bottom of the site but the noise is not too bad. The owners dog was left to wander the site and had no trouble defecating around the pitches. Again not happy about the dog mess and the dog was a large breed so big poos. The fresh water hose was just left in the dirt no place to hook it off the floor
Is it worth the money - no £15 max fits
Toilets were ok.
Positive - stunning views

Just returned from a weekend stay at Greenacres and really loved it. We also brought some newbie campers with us and they really enjoyed it as well so I think that says it all! The staff were really friendly in the office and the scenery is just great.
It's about a 25 minute walk along the road to Edale - we didn't have any food at the pubs but we did go to the Ramblers Inn after a long walk for a beer and that was great, dog-friendly too.
We don't have kids but everywhere was really child-friendly and it was great seeing them enjoying the outdoors. Also lots of dogs so something to keep in mind if (for some crazy reason) you're not a dog person.
The owners also let their Great Dane wander about so this is something to keep in mind if you have an unfriendly dog as well, our collie loved her though!
You are next to a railway line but personally we barely even noticed it - we were out all day though but by the evening only a few went by when we were sitting outside and didn't hear any at night.

Booked this place as we fancied a change from our usual Hope valley side of the mountains camping and found the following.
On arrival we had a little look and then we went into the office and paid for 3 nights upfront.
We couldn't find a spot on any of the other sites nearby in the vale of edale, fully booked up - this site however was basically empty, it looked nice enough and the people were really chatty and friendly but something immediately didn't seem altogether right, where was there only us and two other tents when the other sites were packed?
I would say that with a few more people there, and nice weather, we would have had a nice time, but its rained for 3 days and we havent had more than 3 hours sleep either night because of the trains and constant sheep cries, which due to lambing is constant so were cold, tired and fed up
Pros:
- Friendly staff.
- nice views (really REALLY nice views)
- Hot shower.
- Reasonably priced.
Cons:
- If the weather is bad and you're not driving, your stuck! its in the middle of nowhere, the nearest village is Edale which is a good 45 - 60 mins walk across fields and there is absolutely nothing there when you get there. Couple of pubs etc, bank holiday so rammed with backpacks and angry staff - the nearest shop or civilization is castleton, which on foot is right across the mountains - it took us a good 3. 5 hours to walk there as the crow flies, on the roads is takes a good 20 mins at least the short route.
- Theres one shower cubicle per block, the gents was under 2 inches of muddy water when I went in, turned out the shower outlet was blocked with mud and grass so I spent a good 20 mins unblocking it for them - lucky we were the only ones on the site or showers would be a nightmare with one shower if there was a full site.
- Poo Seriously, lots of it, not sure if its reindeer or sheep, but our tent, boots and anything that touched the grass is covered in wet poo. Because of th weather, obviously we tried to get into the tent without walking in with boots on, but everything smelled like poo the whole time.
Theres also a great big dog there which is friendly but obviously leaves big poos on the field, we would have said something but there was no one around most of the time. These are really big dollops and I have to say I think its really disgusting.
- Train noise. Have to say, it really did bother us, woke up every time one went past, all night long and we were near the top of the field.
Summary
If you're looking for an out of the way site with reasonable facilities, and you have a car then this is the place for you.
Make sure you have sunny weather and dry ground and be prepared for some monster walks to get anywhere.
If you are on foot, its raining or the weather looks dicey, maybe avoid.

Enjoyed a pleasant stay here for a weekend. Site is fairly level though hook up for motor homes etc is only one 4 point plug in top corner of second field. Means all caravans or motor homes have to pitch in one spot. Lots of molehills too. It was quiet when we visited as the expected D of E group didn't arrive. The train track is at the bottom of the field but I was surprised that it didn't disturb me overnight. Might be different if you are in a tent!
The toilets/ showers were clean and modern but only one shower in each of ladies/gents so imagine there could be queues if it is busy. Didn't seem to be any heating so room was cold but plenty of free hot water. Washing up area contains one sink. Site is two medium size fields though owner says he doesn't overbook to ensure it is never packed out. Notice says to check in at house on arrival but no answer. Eventually someone came out of office round the corner. Had booked with friends who arrived later and we got charged more than they did so check price when you book. There is a friendly Great Dane roaming around that belongs to the owners. Didn't faze us as we are dog owners but might do if you are scared of dogs. We made sure to keep ours on a lead as per site rules.
Easy level walk to Rambler Inn in Edale, about 30 mins. We even walked back in the dark using headtorches without falling over! Super views all around

I can't fault this site in any way.
Upon arrival the owners were friendly and said we could pitch anywhere in the first field. I personally much prefer this rather than being told where to pitch.
We pitched up at the bottom of the field adjacent the railway track. The passing trains didn't bother us in the slightest. The noise literally lasts less than 10 seconds. Either the trains stopped at night or didn't wake us up. I assume there was some early morning trains but these didn't wake us.
The site is in an excellent location with lovely views. We walked to Edale which took less than 30 minutes. There are 2 pubs here which are muddy boot and dog friendly.
The toilets and showers were clean and modern.
Overall this is definitely one of the better sites we've stayed at and is great value. We will probably revisit the site in the future.

Lovely basic campsite, well worth a stay if you like a simple field set up.
The toilets where clean, the shower looked clean although I didn't use it so can't comment further. With hot water for the pans I couldn't ask for more.
The camp site is situated in a valley so be aware that mobile reception was a bit hit and miss. For me the noise from the train wasn't really an issue as it wasn't all night. It was nice that the dog camped for free and there's a handy public footpath opposite the site for the first/last walk of the day.
Due to rain we had couple of meals out, fish and chips in near by Bradwell (15mins by car). And a meal at the Ye Olde Nags Head in Castleton.
All things considered we will camp here again.

Stayed at Greenacres Campsite over the bank holiday weekend. On arrival, we checked in at the house and we're informed that the site only accepted cash. Not usually a problem, but as they had mentioned they ran a business we assumed they would take card - not sure if the owner had a very dry sense of humour (he offered to shoot us if we used the wrong bins or stole bricks from his wall) but felt a bit uncomfortable asking if we could pay the next day. Apparently it does state cash only on the website, so be warned!
The location of the site was amazing, beautiful views of mamtor and the ridge with walks straight from the site. The facilities were adequate, not sure how busy the showers would be on a busy weekend as there is only one for each sex, but they worked well enough. We found no issues with the hygiene as others have stated but we mostly used the facilities in our caravan.
As other people have mentioned, there are noise issues with the trains, but it's livable.
The main issue we had, which would stop us returning, is that the back field that we were in was covered in sheep poo. And I mean COVERED! We had two small children with us and it was not possible to let our toddler play as she ended up with poo all over her. It stinks and stained her cloths. It's really sad as it ruined what could have been a lovely site in an amazing location.

Beautiful site in a lovely location. The village is not far from this site, where there is a pub and plenty to look round.
Really great site for children, nice and quiet (no noise after half 10) and lots of space for them to play.
Great value and some excellent views, will recommend and will be back again!

Wow! Great site set in a beautiful location just outside the village itself. Despite the weather for two days the views from the site onto Losehill were fabulous. The site owners were incredibly friendly, as were the sheep that were close by, great for the kids. The reindeer were superb, too!
The site was no noise post 1030 pm which was great, especially with two kids.
Toilet facilities were incredibly clean, modern close to the site as was the chemical disposal area.
The price was very reasonable, making the site very good value for money. The walk into the village takes 15 minutes and you end up right next to the nags head pub, which is well worth the short trek.
Thanks for a fab stay
