Date of Visit: June 2010 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: SASENACH 1 review from this member

 Just spent 4 nights at Pindale, a lovely little site that I will certainly visit again. The field where we camped was lovely, with views of Mam Tor and Lose Hill. The grass was in lovely condition.

There is a lower field, which at the time of my visit was populated by Duke of Edinburgh kids, but they were far enough away to be no problem.

The toilets were very clean and well kept. The showers were adequate and free.Good pot washing facilities with washing up liquid, scourers etc provided. There was also a chest freezer for freezer blocks (for cool boxes)and also washing machines and dryers. (£1 token required)

It was around 20 mins walk to and from Castleton and around the same to Hope where there is a well equipped Spar shop.

The owner was nice and very helpful.

It is near the cement factory. There is a gentle hum, but you hardly notice it (although my car did end up covered in dust !)

At £5 a head this was a great little fine and well worth the money.

 Stayed here a couple of times and its always been ok. The views are amazing apart from the blue circle cement factory and the walks in and around castleton are sweet.

Maybe the reception could be better as I felt like a school kid when I asked about firepits and then got talked down too.

So all in all its fine, apart from the fires out at 10 rule, even though its in a firepit and well controlled.

 We came across this site by chance and a pleasant surprise it was too,

Was nice and tidy with the showers & toilets very clean,

We managed to get 1 of the very few electric pitches so ideal to book for these,

nice 20 min stroll into hope village and a 30 minute wobble back after a few cold ones ! A nice indian takeaway was had from the village and the pitches were flat enough to cook breakfasts/bbqs.

Nice and peaceful didn't hear the cement works some go on about (told you the cold drinks were nice !).

Overall a very nice site that we will be visiting again.

 We have just spent 3 nights at this site, we originally tried to book the old powder house but were told it had been vandalised the week before, however there was room in the barn and the owner allowed us sole use of an eight berth self catering unit for £20 per night (me the wife and dog) so a real bargain. The accommodation was fine with a large bunk that would sleep 4 per tier, the kitchen was well equipped with everything you could need.

The shower and toilet facilities were clean and well maintained. The site itself is very nice with lots of options as to what kind of accommodation you require and the cement factory next door didn't even register until they did some blasting on Wednesday afternoon.

The walk into Castleton was pleasant enough and the castle is a top pub. The other pubs in the area that we tried were dog friendly and there is an abundance of eating options. The only downside to Castleton is the lack of ATM's but the post office is close to the centre of the village and we had no problem withdrawing cash from there.

Pindale farm is well worth using as a base to explore the Hope Valley and surrounding area with lots of trails for all standards of walker, The caves in Castleton are well worth a visit and the national park visitor centre is worth an hour of your time.

 Will be returning here as it has all you need on site and loads to do in the surrounding area. Yes you can hear cement factory next door but apart from occasional blast on a siren it's hardly noticeable.
Facilities are good, usually clean but you are in walking country so some mud can't be avoided in showers.
Castleton is very nice (pubs and food especially) only drove through Hope but looked dull in comparison. Check out the hot sandwiches in Peveril grocery store, Castleton, run by very friendly couple. Chatsworth House well worth a visit.
We stopped 4 nights with ehu for £76 which I think is good value.

 Pindale is a site which I used quite often a couple of years ago and have recently revisited. I only live 40 minutes away and know castleton and hope well.
The site is clean and friendly and the facilities are great. My favourite thing is the 15 minute stroll into the heart of castleton where you can enjoy walking, the caves and the numerous pubs in the area (You may need a torch to get back if you stay later into the evening).
The only negative is the cement works very near by but in my experiences it is soon forgot about.

 Found this site by accident and although almost nextdoor to the cement works, when we pitched there it was largely unobtrusive. The camping field was a little damp due to the constant rain we had, but the facilities were excellent. Warm showers/toilets and very friendly staff/reception, local shops/pubs are well within walking distance. All in all I would highly reccomend the site for a visit nice and out of the way for peace and quiet.

 I visited Pindale as part of a large group booking.

There were approx 50 tents and we booked out the whole of the site many months in advance.

On arriving we were warned that the toilets and showers were 'dreadful' and indeed, were not cleaned in the whole Friday - Monday we were there. I asked up at the house when they would be cleaned and was told 'when you all go home!' There was frequently no loo roll, and a sink in the ladies leaked all over the floor each time it was used.

This was a real shame, because the site itself was in such a fabulous location, and fairplay to our organisers, they visited earlier in the year when it was clean and tidy.

Another member of our group asked why it was as bad as it was, and the lady there told him it was her father's site and that he had gone around the world, and that she had no means of transport to get cleaning materials.

Like I say - BIG shame - we had a great weekend there anyway as our group always does!

Beware - the lorries visiting the cement works and the continuous blasting can get a little loud at night, but if you're here, you're here for walking and so should be shattered at the end of each day anyway!

 Stayed last night (Friday 7th june). The site was very nice and so was Helen, the lady in reception. We went to the Cheshire Cheese pub in Hope. 5 very well presented local real ales and what looked like very good food. We cannot wait to go back again, perhaps midweek next time it might be even quieter. Overall ten out of ten. The staff must work very hard to maintain the high standards at Pindale Farm.

 Great Site!

Close to the cement works which the kids absolutely loved as you can see the freight trains coming in and out and having a train obsessed 3 year old this was good. Must point out that there was little noise heard at all from any activities at the works. Hope Village at one end of the road and Castleton at the other, take your pick!

At peak times parking was tight but eveyone seemend to fit in one way or another. We couldn't park next to the tents, but again I think this is quite good as we have a 2 year old and a 3 year old and it meant we didn't have to worry about vehicles moving about.

No allocated pitches which is good so it meant you could be a close to or as far away from others as you wished, though on a Bank Holiday weekend you don't get much room!

A few loud people on the Sat night, but at least they are out in the country enjoying themselves and not at home stuck in front of the tv.

Facilities seemed pretty new and were well maintained, lots of loo roll and hot showers and somewhere to wash up, what more do you need.

Overall a good site and would go back again.
