A group of us from work, about 8 in total, booked for a couple of nights at Bankhouse Farm over this weekend just gone (10-12 of May).
It had been raining quite heavily for the previous few days but the ground didn't seem to be too bad.
The site owner booked us in and from then on called us all by our first names and was very friendly. The facilities were very clean and more than adequate for a site of it's size.
The area is absolutely outstanding. The scenery is pretty breathtaking.
When we came to set up, the wind had picked up considerably so we decided to wait an hour to see if it settled down. Off we went to the Manifold Inn across the road. A great pub with good service and excellent food.
We got back an hour later and set up during a lull in the wind. We didn't bother getting the firepit out as it was still drizzling and didn't look like letting off.
We asked to be put over in the corner by the dog walking field as a few of us had our dogs with us and we would also be away from other campers and as a group we may have been a bit noisy for other campers (as it turns out we were quieter than some of the other campers!).
We didn't really sleep much on Saturday night and awoke Sunday morning to see the stream next to our pitches had risen dramatically and was threatening to flood us out.
Over hot coffee and toast we decided to call it a day and pack up. The weather forecast was more torrential rain and we didn't fancy getting stuck.
The site owner came down and to his credit, offered us a couple of nights free when the weather got better as way of compensation. He didn't have to do that and that goes some way to showing how nice he is.
I'll add some pictures, if I can to show how bad the rain was.
I am planning to return in the summer (if we get one) as it's such a nice site in a great location at a reasonable price.

This site is perfect for a family break in the Peak District. There were 3 families in our party, each with our own tents, and had a superb time relaxing and enjoying the full camping experience with a camp fire.
The owners could not be more helpful. The owner is always at hand when needed and makes the site feel very welcoming.
Pub opposite is very handy and the scenery superb.
My father in law also stayed on site in a caravan utilising a electric hook up pitch. He feels it is one of the best sites he has had the pleasure of visiting.
Will definitely be back.

Stayed at Bank House Farm 1st May bank holiday and enjoyed every minute of it. The pitches are of various size on electric so check with the owner when booking with the size of your tent, we had pitch 26 which was of good size for my Outwell Nevada M with front awning. Like all the other reviews say on here, the owners are excellent, nothing is too much trouble, as there's no Vodafone coverage Wayne let us use his house phone to contact some friends who where staying at Hartington, which was very good of him. I'm not going to ramble on about the site as it is fantastic and has gone into my top 5 site's, but you will have to travel for the shop's as the village shop has gone. We went to Bakewell for a visit and supplies and also walked the Manifold Valley Trail to Thor's cave which is a must for anybody staying. All I can say is check out the reviews and their website and book it, you won't be disappointed, we'll be booking again for this year.

We stayed on this lovely site April 24/26th. We were welcomed by the owner who showed us our pitch and gave us all the relevant info, our pitch was next to the manifold river and a great peaceful spot, the toilet and shower block was clean and tidy with no extra cost for shower, plenty of loo roll too. There's a pub right across the road and loads of walks around the area.
This is a lovely quiet spot and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this site to anyone, also if you have dogs there is a huge dog walking field, enjoy.
Be careful turning in and out of site because its on a blind bend.

We stayed here last week for our 1st ever camping trip and we loved it. It's such a peaceful site to stay. We had electric hook up and was just by the steam which the kids thoroughly enjoyed. We were shown around the facilities as we arrived. The loo's and shower area always looked like it had just been cleaned every time we went up to them. And we found the fridge/freezer very useful. Our pitch was nice and flat and a good size.
We loved the fact that the pub was just across the road. We had 2 meals in there, both were lovely and fresh.
All in all a lovely place to stay and we have already enquired about another stay.

We have visited Bank Hall Farm a couple of times a year for around the last five years and have never got around to posting a review, so finally after a lovely long Easter break the time has come!
We usually opt to stay in the large field over the bridge from the farm and park our motorhome next to the stream that passes through the site. This years first camping trip was another great long weekend in the Manifold valley. Some of the many things that keep bringing us back to this site are its location, its helpful owners and the friendly campers this site attracts.
Whilst we don't have children ourselves the friendly family atmosphere on the site was lots of fun, when the sun was shining we even joined an impromptu game of cricket with some of our neighbours!
Although we are generally self sufficient when I have visited the facilities they have always been kept to a high standard, even on a busy bank holiday.
Activity wise, you can walk down the Manifold trail, just around the corner from the site and the village of Hartington is up the road. Just next to the site is the lovely Manifold Inn which is highly recommended for Sunday lunch or evening meals.
We would highly recommend this site if you enjoy a quiet break next to the river or a location for a family break, you won't be disappointed.

Just returned from a three night stay at Bank House Farm.
Spotless toilets and showers (free), plenty of toilet roll, hand towels and hand soap, didn't have to wait to use them.
Great location, pub just across the road, reasonable beer prices, food very good, we had an evening meal and breakfast. If you want to eat there for an evening meal we would advise you book a table as it gets busy at the weekend.
Shop less than five minutes walk away - stocks everything and shop owner's very friendly.
Wayne, campsite owner, was very friendly, helpful and welcoming. The grass could have done with a cut as it was very dewy in the night/morning, so keep that in mind for a pair of wellies for trips in the night/morning to the toilets at this time of year.
There is free use of the fridge and freezer (great for ice blocks) and lots of local information handy.
We didn't find the road noise intrusive as we were the far end of the field. Some great views and places to walk from the camp.
The ducks that live by the river are very friendly and have no issues with coming to say hello and eat the worms as you lift your ground sheet up!
Yes we would return to this site.

This was our first night 'try it' camping night before going on a long trip. Chose Bank House Farm based on previous reviews, they are not wrong. The site is superbly located and facilities excellent - didn't have to queue for toilets/showers or wash facilities. Owner is excellent - even provided us with hook up cable despite having our own. Pub is nice, told food good but noticed service a bit slow.
Am booking a long stay at Bank House in next few weeks - this was an excellent first trip out.

Just returned home, from an excellent weekend camping at this site with friends,
Spotlessly clean everywhere
Very child friendly
Very good site owners, regular campsite checks
Shop near by, good selection
Pub at junction, again good
Will return
Hartington village beautiful, good selection in the cheese shop
We were on the second camp site which doesn't have facilities so you have a two minuet walk across to the main site to shower, I didn't find this a problem, as I really thought this site was so well maintained and had lovely campers and caravanners staying there
Not a noisy site

Just back from a 2 night stay. Nice site but be warned - if you are camping on the Meadow Field there are no facilities on this side of the road! We did find this a bit off putting initially as we were camping with our young children and the toilets are a good few minutes walk away across the road and up a hill to the main farm building - in fact the pub toilets are closer! This is something that the owners failed to mention to us when booking and would put us off from returning in all honesty.

This is one of the best settings we have been to. Idyllic with fabulous views. Wayne, the owner, could not have been more helpful especially on Sunday morning when after a horrendous storm the river burst its banks! He was up at 5. 30am warning people to pack up and move. He was on hand helping where necessary.
Before the washout we had a fabulous day and half in glorious sunshine. The facilities are clean and warm. The usual queues for loos and washing up but not a problem. The site has various areas to pitch in and offers some electric hook up.
Local pub is great with excellent food - TIP you have to book to eat in the evening.
Loads of walks locally.
Will definitely go back.

Just back from 3 nights at this site, part of a group of 12 in 4 tents.
Owner was extremely helpful with our booking, ensuring we were all together on flat pitches.
We arrived midweek and the site was nearly empty but filled up on Friday for the glorious sunny weekend!
Showers and toilets and pot washing sinks are limited and sometimes busy, but spotlessly clean, owner was talking to us about this and has plans to improve in the future.
Views and walks from the site are great, we used the top field for games of rounders etc and had a fab time.
The kids paddled and swam in the river, we had barbecues in our fire pit - slabs provided - so nice to have this freedom.
Dog field is huge and away from the tent area. Lots of families of ducks wandering through our gazebo - lovely to see.
We didn't visit the pub across the road but the menu looked good.
There are 2 big fridge/freezers in the barn area which are free to use, that's just such a thoughtful touch and helped us a lot to chill the drinks on the hot days, no 20p charges for everything here!
Owner is great, he is helpful and visible at all times which I found reassuring as we had no menfolk with us! He offered extra ehu leads and any help we may need, and always had time for a chat, even though he was busy. He deserves to make a success of this site as he works so hard and wants everyone to have a good time when visiting.
Overall a lovely break on a really nice site, and I look forward to returning in the future, but - we will need the view from the top of the site next time - to die for!
If you're looking for entertainment and luxury don't visit this site, but if you are like us and want to relax in a beautiful area, with a genuine helpful site owner, and spotlessly clean facilities, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

We used this campsite as a stopover on a Friday and Sunday evening on our way to and then back from a friend's 50th in Scotland. The campsite is well maintained and in a beautiful location, we were sorry that we weren't staying for the whole weekend so that we could enjoy some of the walks in the area. We pitched our camper van right next to the river in the field over the road from the main site (where the facilities are located) and it was wonderful to be able to light a fire in our fire pit on both evenings, with the sound of the river tinkling in the background. Paving slabs are also provided to ensure that you don't damage the grass. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly. We didn't visit the shop but had a pint in the pub which is incredibly well situated, right next to the site. The only area that could do with a bit of improvement are the facilities which were very basic. Nevertheless we would definitely spend a night or two here again if we were in the Peak District.

Just back from another weekend at this gem of a campsite while attending a camping event, this is our 3rd visit. The weather was fantastic so the site was full, but not overcrowded, and there was no noise after 10. 30pm. The sites facilities coped really well, despite there only being 2 showers each for men and women. The showers are free and the toilets and showers were cleaned every day.
The site now has a large fridge freezer, tumble dryer and an electric kettle for campers to use and an electric point in the ladies for hair-dryers/Straighteners. Still lots of local information leaflets and a book swap box under the covered area near the reception.
There is no playground for the children, but that's is no bad thing in my opinion as it helped them use their imagination to create their own entertainment by playing in the shallow river, rolling down the hill and making lots of friends to play rounders and games with. That said all was quiet by 10. 00pm.
BBQs are allowed as are open fires as long as they off the ground in a fire pit or similar container, and they provide a slab of concrete to put them on.
The Manifold Inn, across the road from the site, serves great food and also does a campers breakfast. There is also a well stocked shop approx 100 yards from the campsite that is open from about 7. 30 am to 7. 00pm.
This is a nice, friendly campsite in a lovely area that is well placed to enjoy this part of the Peak District and we wholeheartedly recommend it. Wayne is a brilliant guy who will go out of his way to help you and is very easy to get along with.
