 Really nice campsite. Food was lovely at the restaurant and all the safety guidelines followed.

Felt secure with the lock on the gate and the kids loved it.

Beautiful view over matlock! Shame it was so cold.

Could do with some sort of play area on site for the kids or activities to keep them entertained.

 Loved the location of this campsite, views to die for, pub fantastic so friendly staff and locals.

Dislike the slope, but then you wouldn't get the views,

Toilet and showers always clean always.

Pub food fantastic, would definitely go again.

Reviewer: Asalu1 1 review from this member

 A very very packed camp site, partly to be expected due to the heat and summer holidays. However thought they may look at space due to current covid situation.

Overall a decent place to camp out with beautiful scenery (although less able to see the scenery due to how many people, cars, tents and vans were within the space.

NO covid mention or measures put in place to protect or remind people, ie space etc which was very surprising. It was as if covid wasn't acknowledged there.

For a family. Not great sleep as music going until midnight and due to compact camping, sounds from those near by kept us awake.

I would return probably only off season and without children. Or at least with older children.

 I’ve stayed here before and really like it.

I stayed with a camping buddy in tents. Had a fab evening, dropped into the pub for a pint too. The showers and toilets have been revamped I think.

Good controls re COVID-19

A great place to come with great views.

Reviewer: Lynnej 1 review from this member

 Absolutely love this place, the camping area, the pub, the facilities and the owners are just so chilled and easy, we have been going here for a number of years.

Ref covid they had it sorted and we felt safe and confident, it was relaxed and everyone practiced social distancing, anti bacterial stations situated throughout, everyone was mindful of each other’s space and it still felt relaxed.

Facilities are basic but everything you need and exceptionally clean,

At £5 per night this is definitely value for money,

If you love a small village location overlooking fields and a farm this is the place x

We will be back x

Reviewer: Ted_ashby_2003 9 reviews from this member

 There's no getting away from the fact that the site is mostly sloping. Having said that it's a very, very reasonable £5 pppn with £1 per shower and no charge for dogs.

We liked: clean toilets and showers, pub on the doorstep with a range of ales, reasonably priced food and friendly staff. Short walk down to pretty village of Winster.

We didn't like: lack of signage for water point and CDP. Lack of blocks for steadies. Poor recycling. Short walk UP from Winster.

Would certainly stay here again.

Reviewer: Dad1uk 36 reviews from this member

 We stayed for one night in our folding camper.

A lovely site but a large part of the site is sloping.

There are some EHU's but these need to be booked to guarantee one.

There is an outdoor sink for washing up, separate ladies and gents toilets and £1 coin operated showers.

The pub is very friendly both staff and customers and has a good varied menu.

The site is on top of a hill which gives lovely views but does mean it is prone to be windy.

The pub is dog friendly and child friendly but there is very little for youngsters to do.

A short trip (15 minutes approx) will see you in Bakewell which has a variety of shops

Reviewer: Pirsigian 1 review from this member

 Lovely small site - really a pub with a large field at the back

Basic but clean facilities.

The staff at the Miners Standard will always give you a good relaxed welcome.

Visited many times over the last five years usually for a couple of nights and had never had a problem.

Great as a base for walks out - Robin Hood's Stride is only two miles away, and the delights of Matlock Bath a few miles more.

I keep on returning.

Reviewer: Bmansell123 2 reviews from this member

 Tried a couple of nights here but was a very quiet site and as we took our son who is 5 he was the only child on whole site so he found it quite boring. Grass pitch is all on quite a slope so tent users would be not good there, however we were offered a hand standing pitch, but to be honest you cant expect butlins for 5 pound a night. But on the positive me and the baby went in the pub to pay and ended having a couple of beers in there and the pub was very welcoming and got on with the baby, like he was their own. Would recommend if there's a couple of you and you can make your own entertainment.

Reviewer: Pocestny 1 review from this member

 Camping area well kept, clean and tidy. Although most of the area is on the slope, there is still plenty space for a good pitch. Toilet facilities are clean. Several shower cubicles (20 pence). If busy, more toilets available inside the pub, accessible from the campsite. Seating area outside the pub and small area for the game of Boule. Staff is helpful, and welcoming. Excellent cousine and selection of traditional ales. Some nights can be noisy from low flying planes to or from East Midland airport.

Reviewer: Jfh77 2 reviews from this member

 Really friendly site and pub. Food orders were supposed to stop by 8:15, but we only got back to the site around 8! Just asked if they were happy to hang on for a bit while we sorted ourselves out and it was all cool. Fantastic meal too - really enjoyed it.

Only negatives would be only one shower, and (being picky) I'd have liked a guest ale or two on the taps - that said, the stuff they had on must have been well kept because I was on the outside of several pints of it and woke up hangover free :) despite these minor things it's still a recommended from me

Beautiful location - lovely to stick your head outside the tent and see the view. Hope to return one day.
