 Fantastic scenery. Worth putting up with the trains passing. Toilet blocks were not cleaned and ladies ran out of toilet roll. 3 sinks. Two with no hot water, one with but that one had no plug. Shower didn't get warm. Go with plenty of wet wipes! Would actually go back despite this, as it was not taken over by noisy groups even at Bank holiday weekend, and there was plenty of space. Local pubs a mile or so away sold good beer and food. Probably need acar for nearest shop. Walking good from site.

 This campsite has fabulous views and it is nice and spacious. It is spread over two fields so there is plenty of room between tents. You park next to your tent. The railway track is right next to the campsite however it is not too busy during the week or at weekends. It is a perfect location for walking in the Edale valley as it is away from the main village. It is not too far from the pub which is about one mile from the site.

There is only one shower in each block but as this is a quiet site it does not cause a problem. There is a sink outside to wash dishes however it does not have hot water.

The site fields seemed clean however the main problem is the hygiene of the facilities. We stayed for four days and over this period the toilets, the shower or the washing up area were not cleaned. It is a shame as this has put us off returning.

 This is the first time I have personally chosen a campsite for our family to visit (me, husband and 5 yr old daughter), and my husband has told me I made a very good choice. I have to agree!

We came on a weekend and stayed for one night at a cost of £10. The campsite included two fields which were both large and pretty flat. We were in the second field and part of it does 'dip,' but otherwise it was fine with only a slight slope.

There was plenty of room between pitches so we did not feel crowded at all. There was also plenty of room for children to play in the field. We happened to share the field with a large group who had about 10-14 children with them, and even so, there was still plenty of room for them all to run around.

The scenery is absolutely amazing! There are trees bordering the road, which do a great job of blocking out noise. But no trees blocking the views of the magnificent giant hills.

There were no issues with noise from campers during quiet hours and most campers were couples. There is a train track which is inaccessible (we lost our frisbee to it) and although the trains run fairly often, they are so fast and small (mostly passenger trains) that it is the equivalent of car noise. I think the last train ran around 10:30pm or 11:00pm, but again, even with pitching at the narrow end of the field, close to the tracks, the noise was not disturbing in the least and I would not let that put you off.

I did not use the shower, but it does take tokens that you have to get from the office - so plan for that. There were 3 or 4 toilets with plenty of loo roll - no problems there. The washing up sinks are outside, uncovered, so if it were raining that would be a little inconvenient. However, we were lucky enough to have a brilliantly sunny and warm weekend.

The farm is right next to some horse stables that offer pony trekking. This is one of the reasons I chose this site, because my daughter loves horses. We did do a half-hour farm ride on the ponies at a very reasonable price, but with some booking and riding experience under your belt, you can also take the ponies out of the farm for all day if you wish.

The campsite is close to Castleton, which we stopped by on our way home. There is plenty to do there.

We loved this campsite and plan to return in the future.

 I visit this site very often at weekends with my partner for a quick getaway. The owner is always accommodating. The charges are fair. The site has a shower room, toilet block, chemical waste disposal point and pot washing area. All basic but adequate.

The thing I like about here most is that there is always a nice atmosphere. Its very laid back and no gangs of loud noisy people. Most people here are walkers / cyclists / couples and kids.

The views around the site are beautiful. If you like walks there are many lovely ones all around. A short drive to Hope and there are shops which sell most essentials, a garage, pub etc. or go the other direction to Edale for a couple of nice pubs, a cafe and shop.

The only thing missing to make this a perfect site would be a play area for the children.. Otherwise I love this place and plan to visit many more times in the future.

 Really nice camping field with a very short walk from toilets / showers, which were found to be clean and working. Although the facilities are basic we found them sufficient and fit for use. Token cost 50 pence for showers which last for 5 mins.

The owners were friendly and helpful.

My boys played football, tennis, etc without any problems even the owners son joined in. My boys can be loud at times but we had no complaints.

All in all a great little campsite with beautiful views, about 3 mile walk to Edale village where 2 pubs are and a 2 minute drive to Hope & Castleton.

Good value for money, great campsite for simple relaxing get away. Just pray for sunshine

 A very basic site in a beautiful quiet setting. Only a few electric hook up points, otherwise we could pitch where we wanted. Stunting views south to Losehill and Mam Tor. Lots of birds around. Easy access to footpaths and the Pennine Way.
Hope Well Dressing was on at the time and that was very interesting. There are stables next door offering pony trekking.

Reviewer: Dingovirgin 1 review from this member

 I like this site, small and uncomplicated (just like me). The facilities are all I need on a weekend away and the train line at the bottom of the field doesn't bother me. The trains seem no louder than the cars on the road.

The location is close enough to edale to walk to the pub, but far enough away to maintain some tranquillity.

The problem I do have with the site is that the owner no longer allows dogs (as I found out at my last visit)

The only reason I could find for the dog ban is that the owner has 3 dogs and likes them to have the run of the site. Sadly after staying here for a number of years, I shall not be visiting this site any more.

So in summary, if you have no dogs, and don't require site shops, clubs and shiny things then this is the place for you!

Reviewer: Adam - Coventry 2 reviews from this member

 Booked in for three nights as Greenacres was the only site available in the area. That worried us - but with no need.

Stunning location, basic but more than adequate facilities (shower better than home). Train track at bottom of the site but not really a problem.

Also - my car had a flat battery and the owner of the site could not have been more helpful, allowing me to phone the AA from his office and also offering to charge the battery for me.

Will return.

 We visited this campsite last year and had a great time. The facilities were basic but fine. You had to buy a token for the shower, but it was very nice, plenty hot enough and gave you a whole 5 minutes. There were 3 of us and we all managed to get straight in the showers when we wanted to.

The view was great. It was just a short walk into Edale or a quick drive to the nearest village where there were some nice pubs.

We have stayed at other campsites in this area, but found this one to be the best value for money and the nicest overall, and we will definitely go back.

Reviewer: Lizak 1 review from this member

 We stayed at the campsite during the Bank Holiday weekend. We were two families with children. The campsite was a basic campsite with separate toilet block and shower for men/ladies. The shower was run on a token costing 50p. Whilst I was unhappy at discovering there was only one shower and the campsite was full, I think overall it worked very well. The token system ensures that the use of the shower is limited. There was never more than one person in the queue if you were unlucky, most of the time it was empty. There was potwashing facilities too. The owners were very friendly and ensured the facilities were cleaned daily. There is a train track running alongside the campsite which runs through the night during the week and stops mid/late evening at the weekends. It depends on where you camp on the site as to how noisy it would be. Overall, I would recommend the campsite. It has fantastic views too.
