Reviewer: Brian2 1 review from this member

 Great location in the heart of Matlock, about 1 mile to Matlock center and just over a mile to Matlock bath, there are numerous walks from the campsite and many places of interest locally, heights of Abraham, Cirich transport museum, Gulliver's kingdom to name a few.

The campsite itself is located behind the pub in a field, however it was very peaceful, you will need leveling ramps as it's not Very flat ( not surprising given its location).

Staff at the pub are very friendly and welcoming, as are the locals, there is entertainment at weekends and food is served everyday except Mondays.

Facilities are all adequate, two shower rooms and a toilet and the fresh water tap, all located at the rear of the pub and kept clean as well

All in all a very good place to stay and we have already booked again as we enjoyed our trip so much.

Reviewer: Rachel 1 review from this member

 Nice quiet site. Friendly host. 2 minute walk through the park into Matlock.

Only downside is the church bells ringing which is next to the site.

Clean toilet/shower.

Didn't eat in the pub but the food looked really nice

Reviewer: Sabrinaman 8 reviews from this member

 This place was wonderful. Phil was very welcoming, showed me the facilities and invited me to pitch then come in to pay later.

It's a small field behind the pub but my bike and small tent were the only things in it on the Tuesday night I went so the whole place was quiet and I didn't hear any noise from the pub either.

The only problem was the church bell striking every quarter through the night but hey, I soon got used to that and after all, they were probably there first and it saved me keep looking at my watch.

The shower and toilet facilities were so clean I felt as if I ought not to walk in there. Wonderful.

The town is within a short walking distance but if you cycle it'll be a steep climb back up!

To catch the sun in the morning, camp on the north side of the field (to your left as you enter).

Reviewer: Emmalo 1 review from this member

 Great location. We walked to Matlock town, Matlock bath and Cromford Mill and back in one day.

Shower and toilets are located in beer garden. Hot showers too! 2 showers available but one trickled water but the other was better. The only thing I wasn’t happy about was that there was no hand towels or wastebin in one of the bathrooms.

The baby changing mat and stand was filthy. There is no where to put your bag and clothes and no mop to wipe the floor ready for the next person. Which is pretty normal in other campsites.

I had to go into pub when there was no toilet paper in any of the toilets/ bathrooms. I don’t think the toilets /showers get checked or cleaned regularly. The hand sanitiser was empty all week which is not ideal with the COVID virus.

The general cleanliness of the toilet/ showers should have been so much better.

This didn’t ruin our stay but we won’t be coming back. This needs to be improved

Please note the church rings it’s bells every hour on the hour!.

 Location was perfect.

Showers were clean and not far to walk to, at the rear of the pub.

No one else on the camp field so even better. No bells or whistles but a pleasant relaxing time had.

Reviewer: Bthorn 1 review from this member

 Liked:We found the site to be in a great location with local amenities within walking distance. The site itself was relatively well maintained and tidy.

Phil the owner made himself known and was friendly.

Disliked :no proper facility for sluice disposal had to use the W. C in the toilet /shower block with no water supply to rinse out.

Toilet /Shower amenities were very untidy on the Sunday morning with paper towels strewn about the floor and there was no loo roll in the dispensers, though in fairness they were clean and tidy over the rest of our stay.
