 Use the site to visit relatives. Good value, has all you need.

Bit noisy this year because workers seemed to be using and left at 6 o'clock in the morning to go to work.

 Just had five nights at this site and I was disgusted with the chemical disposal it was filthy. The hose pipe was too short to swill it out and as for the rubbish collection, the bins were chock-full for three days

There seemed to be no way of recycling and as being a five pitch site I think not a lot could be done to make this a nice site.

But I must give good marks for the toilets.

Reviewer: Cbretton 1 review from this member

 Great site on the edge of town. Adult site only (mine were 23 and 20!). Bus route close by (beers are tempting in this excellent brewing town!). Taxi fare back £6-7 Exceptionally clean site, quiet, plenty of room.

Excellent shower / toilet block, well tended. Water points and electricity if you need it. Ideal for us, but that is it in terms of amenities. Shops are some way away, so stock up.

Tents were £15 per night. There is security in terms of automatic barriers at the entrance (you need a number to key in). A warden is on site and when arriving, ring the mobile number shown. The system worked well. If in the area again, I would happily come back here.

 What a wonderful site and friendly people, the owner David and site manager Bill made me feel so welcome and nothing was too much trouble! Facilities basic but clean, warm and tidy and so peaceful with lots of robins, ducks and variation of birds on feeders, what more can you ask for £12 pn.

No one pesters you and within walking distance for pubs and shops and good field on site for dog run. I can definitely recommend this site as a single traveller with 2dogs who doesn’t want children spoiling my peace and tranquillity.

Reviewer: DJMotorhomer 48 reviews from this member

 2 night stay

An unadopted road leads to the campsite with many potholes.

2 parts to the campsite, one part a CL for the CMC the other a standard campsite. Due to limited hsrdstanding pitches we pitched in the campsite.

Amenities were fair but the chemical disposal was poor.

What looked like a dustbin was marked for toilet waste. On opening is was 99% full luckily it took our waste but I pity the next user as obviously blocked.

£15 a night with electric.

 Lovely place, warm welcome by the owner, only stayed two nights as this was our first time camping with the dogs. Huge dog walking field, although unless your dog has good recall I wouldn't let them off as there is cattle or horses one side of the large hedge.

Ours stayed on the extending leads. Showers and toilets were clean and tidy with plenty of space. Site is close to local shops (coop and post office, ) and two great pubs, and small woods to walk round in the main village.

Jinny trail is a nice walk and leads down to the Jinny inn pub. It threw it down with rain on the Sunday but the site didn't get too muddy. Wonderful for the price! Great little quiet site.

Highly recommend!

 Having read some of the previous reviews I was looking forward to our 2 day stay here as we were going to a friends bbq in nearby Stretton.

In some respects the reviews were correct as everyone was friendly and Dave the farmer was very helpful. I was expecting a slopping site and that is what we got except we found a flat area on hard standing close to water and power which was great.

However the facilities were basic and a little tired. The access itself is not well signed and the drive is narrow and bumpy for a larger unit. Once onto the site there is no designated pitches and it is a bit of a free for all to find an area close to electric as well trying to a Flatish area to parkup.

Tractor tyres full of weeds surround the electric points which don't look good unless you plant them up and they give a run down look to the site. The wash rooms are inside a brick building which look ok from the outside but once inside the facilities are looking tired. There was no hot water in the sinks when we were there but the showers were OK, just run down. The pot wash wash had lots of hot water but again were basic.

There were several caravans that looked like permanent settlements and the children's area consisted of a very old plastic play house and a slide that looked a little dodgy to me. We never saw any kids on them.

At the bottom of the site behind a rusting digger there is a large pond with a boat in it but it is not inviting and not fenced off so could be an issue if you have youngsters, however there is a life ring which is good.

At the top of the site there is a flat, separated area that is designated for The Caravan Club members only which is slightly better and I would recommend any CC members to use this if you were coming to Cross Farm in future.

There is a golf club just over the rear hedges so if you are into this sport it is not far to go for a game. Rollerston has a nice pub called the jinnie but we never went there but Trip Advisor gives it 4 / 5

Bearing all that in mind vs the £12 per night fee which includes water, electric, open space, quiet location near a village with a nice pub, golf course, and walks I will leave you to judge whether you book in or not. I would if we were in the area but on the CC part.

 Just back from a four night stay at this delightful site, and to be totally honest up there with the best campsites. Very quiee and peaceful.

Cracking bloke the farmer. Dave. Very sociable but doesn't intrude but usually around if needed. Also on site wardens, again very helpful and friendly (thank you for your help with my chemical loo, I had never had to empty this my self other half usually does it but he wasn't around this time and I struggled to get it back in but warden very kindly did it)

Excellent facilities, huge disabled / family wet room with shower, loo and hand basin. In the ladies were showers/wet room.

However one of the things that impressed me the most was the other private cubicles, with hand basin and large mirror. For those times when a quick wash is needed. No more brushing your teeth ect in full view of others, brilliant Also on site washing machine and drier at a cost this was our first visit But wont be our last.

All for a bargain price

 Great little campsite near burton on trent. 2 miles from the town centre but so quiet that you can hear the birds sing in the morning.

Owner is great and helpful, ask any question and he will answer it and now there is a site warden there to help you out, and give you advice where to pitch your tent or caravan, and pay the warden if the owner is not around.

New this year is the paddock which is a caravan club site ,separate to the normal campsite.

I stayed in a tent so had to stay on the normal campsite at the top of the field.

There is a carp pond which you can fish included in the price of my stay. Oner says plans are in hand to extend it in the future.

Toilets and showers was clean and tidy in one block. Mens and ladys with also a family room.

Water and electric near where you pitch. Electric was included in the price of my pitch. Loads of water points on site as well even a new washing machine and dryer under cover next to the dish washing sinks area.

Loveley views over looking the town of burton and at night you can see the sutton coalfield tv mast 30 miles way.

Does get busy at weekends due to Alton Towers not that far away.

Def be back in the future.

 Well what a treasure. I've been caravanning and motor homing for over forty years all over our fair isles and overseas.

Cross farm is a belter.

I have relatives in the area and rather just come down in the car from North Lancashire and have a quick visit decided to bring the motorhome and stay for a day or three. We looked for a site online and after reading the reviews of Cross Farm decided to come and stay here for the duration.

We arrived on Saturday and was welcomed as if we were old friends. Well, we are old but friends. That's summat to be worked at. But believe me the site is a cracker.

Although my children are well and truly gone and flew the nest many years ago it was just fantastic to see folks either in tents or caravans/motorhomes with young children having family time. Children have a swing, slide and other child friendly things to keep them happy and all within sight of their parents. Really brought back home to me what this camping is all about, families.

We ventured out and there are really suitable places to visit nearby that are just the ticket.

I could go on. It's a lovely lovely spot.

Value for money? I should say so. Really good facilities, clean and plenty of hot water. If you're that way inclined to do your washing up using the sites facilities I honestly don't thing you will find better. In the washrooms the toilets are good and showers are as good as you get anywhere with a constant supply of hot water.

The electric supply and water taps are numerous and me water pipes and taps are about to be fitted to supply all the new 'vans where you can hook up both to the water and electricity.

There's a washing machine and also a tumble dryer should you run out of clean clothes. What more could you ask for. The views are fantastic.

It's so good I'm staying longer than anticipated and you can be sure I'll be back.

Well done to all concerned, especially Dave and his crew.
