Date of Visit: September 2008 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: Lottydog 19 reviews from this member

 Although this was a very wet week in September are pitch stayed well drained. Although next time we would make sure we weren't parked under a tree. The toilet block was kept very clean and the dry room was very handy!

There is plenty to do in the area, some lovely walks even for the not so fit. We took our bikes and had a nice day out riding around Derwent Reservoir.

I am sure we will visit this site again hopefully in better weather.

Reviewer: Lesa 11 reviews from this member

 Just spent 10 nights at this site and enjoyed every minute of it. Lovely wardens friendly and helpful. Morning papers can be ordered at the office. All pitches are hard standing and most look fairly level. Toilets and showers were well maintained and kept clean. There is an information room where other visitors have left comments about places visited. There is a laundry room, drying room and games room, also a small play area for smaller visitors. Hope is about 7 minutes walk with a spar, deli, caravan shop, post office and 3 pubs. Castleton is also under 10 minutes walk, there is plenty of places to eat annd drink here with fantastic scenery, however, no shops for essentials. There is plenty to do and enjoy what ever the age is this lovely part of the world. We will most definetly return to this site.

 Just returned from 12 days at this site there is no fault at all every where was spotless, what a gem it is placed in a fantastic setting, 10 min walk from Castleton with plenty of dog friendly pubs that serve good beer and good food (some better than others) and plenty of walks to suit most people, the opposit way there is Hope again there is lovely pub that does a full english breakfast for £1.95 (you can't complain at that price) will be returning. The area is great with lots of places to visit

Reviewer: Woody9 10 reviews from this member

 This was our first outing as caravaners.

Stayed for 2 nights. The site is very well maintained and the wardens very helpful.

The toilet block was immaculate. There was also a laundry room with iron (didnt use) and a veg preparation area (didnt use), both were spotless and well used.

The clean water, waste water, waste and rubbish bin areas were well kept.

There is a dog walking area, the site had a lot of dogs which was good as our BeagleX is very sociable :)

The towns of Hope and Castleton are a few mins away and we visited both, lots to do and see. Would recommend stopping for tea and scones at the 3 roof cafe in Castleton (opposite the main car park).

This site is thoroughly recommended, definitely 10/10.

Reviewer: Nickymoz55 23 reviews from this member

 Just got back from a 3 night stay, we had a great time. The site is as expected, pitches all hard standing, laundry room, drying room, family room with ping pong, pool etc, kids bathroom, standards very good, and in a great location. Castleton just a 10 min walk
Play area not as good as other cc sites especially for the smaller kids, and no shop on site either, although you could walk or drive into Hope where you will find a Spar, post office, cash machine chinese restraunt / takeaway, a few pubs, and a camping shop. I have been to another site in hope (called lane side ) a couple of miles away from this site, but after staying at lose hill I dont think I would go back to lane side.

Lose hill is a good site and I am going back in 4 weeks time. Would be better with a slide and swing for kids, and maybe a shop for bread milk eggs bacon ice cream etc. Well thats my view anyway.

Reviewer: Saonkirk 13 reviews from this member

 Great site ,toilets showers were excellent. Brilliant location. Castleton is a lovely village with excellent pubs, all but one were dog friendly. The George and the Cheshire Cheese inn did very good food. Fantastic walks around the area.

We will be back.

Reviewer: Snap 16 reviews from this member

 Used this site at Easter. It was our third visit and still found different things to do. The site is up to the usual CC standards and very popular to boot. The village is a short walk from the site, there's about six pubs all of which do food. We had a very good meal in the George which was dog and child friendly. Can't wait for our next visit.

Reviewer: Anne2410 2 reviews from this member

 Really pleasent warm welcome at reception, staff really helpfull. Site is well spaced, seperated with grass verges. Facilties are nice, warm and clean. There's an information centre on site also. Excellent location can do a lovely walk from site, turn right and take the public footpath sign on right, takes a country walk to Castleton then continue round to hope and back along road to campsite (2hrs). Will return in summer.

Reviewer: Toady503 16 reviews from this member

 Just back from a visit to this site. Very frosty weekend with very sunny days. Done a walk up the Mam Tor which was very nice. Lots of things to do in the area.
The camp site is wonderful, very clean and tidy. Staff are very helpful and pleasant. Lots of pubs/restuarants in the village which is only a five minute walk away, the best for food is The Bulls Head bit more expensive than the others but well worth the extra. I had the gammon it was at least an inch thick, hubby had steak it to was wonderful. This was our second visit to the area and we will definitely be coming back lots more times this year.

Reviewer: Redzed04 5 reviews from this member

 We stayed here just for a night. This is a lovely site literally just down the road from Castleton (a lovely little town). All the Christmas lights look lovely at this time of year and we spent out time in some very nice pubs (all of which allowed our Scottish Terrier in). We have already booked to go back here for a longer stay when the nights are lighter and the weather hopefully less wet!

The pitches as you enter through the barrier are near to the road and when we arrived these were the only ones available. The road noise was not really that evident, perhaps it may be if you were sitting outside on a lovely sunny day, but as it was we were not bothered by it at all. The wardens are really friendly and the toilet block clean. Pitches are very spacious.

Don't hesitate in going here - it's perfect for a relaxing stay.

Reviewer: Gill4richy 7 reviews from this member

 We used this site for 2 days and wish we could have stopped for longer.

Toilet facilities were clean and tidy,wardens were nice and friendly.

Campsite was ideally situated for loads of walks and cycling.

Will definitely be using this one again.

Reviewer: BushBabyJane 25 reviews from this member

 This Caravan Club site is really well located for walking and exploring the Peak District.
 
The toilet facilities are excellent and kept immaculately clean. There is a laundry and a very welcome drying room for your wet boots and jackets, so good for year-round visits.
 
All caravan/motorhome pitches appeared to be hard-standing, some having a nice grassy area too. There is a field for tents too, but I didn't investigate that.
 
Both Castleton and Hope are within walking distance, so plenty of pubs to try.
 
Recommended. 


Date of Visit: August 2007 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Clarenkaz 4 reviews from this member

 We stayed at Losehill because everywhere else in Hope was full.   The other reviews here are all true - the toilets are clean, facilities are good etc but it was not our cup of tea.   Apart from the tent field, you have to camp on gravel - good in bad weather admittedly. 
The site was VERY quiet - on a beautiful summer evening everyone seemed to be in their caravan watching TV at 9pm.  We don't have children but they don't seem very welcome here - well not if they are fun loving anyway - there are no ball games and the whole place feels as though it's very rule driven.
Watch out for the newspapers too - none of the big pile in the shop on Saturday morning were for sale - all had been pre-ordered.
The Cheshire Cheese in Hope is a must.  Didn't eat there but we learned how to pull a fantastic pint when it bcame self-service about half past ten!

Reviewer: Samottewell 2 reviews from this member

 Have just spent 4 days at Losehill. Lovely site. I agree with all of the above. Additions are:1. Papers can be ordered at the shop 2. Fresh baguettes on sale every morning 3. Pitches little cramped when site is full.
Area comments: 1. The courtyard cafe in hope is brilliant. Cath the owner is very lovely. 2. Hope is the village with all the facilities like hitchn hike excellent camping/outdoor shop, bike shop, green grocers, spar, car boot on a Sunday. 3. Castleton is very pretty but not a practical village  -fish nchip shop never open but lots of cafes pubs outdoor shops souvenir shops. Go to the hidden tea shop near peak cavern.
If you are into cycling do the trip round the reservoir very picturesque. Car park gets busy

Reviewer: CATEH 1 review from this member

 We have just returned from a 2-night camping trip at this site and had a wonderful time. It was bank holiday weekend and they were able to take us - hooray! The staff were all friendly and knowledgeable. The tent pitches are all generous (and numbered, with your own dedicated car parking spot nearby) so you can't get cheesed off with your neighbours really, even if the tent field was full. The facilities were immaculate and the location is fantastic for walking (Mam Tor, Edale etc) and eating out (we had a meal at the Bulls Head, Castleton and the Poachers Arms, Hope - both about 10 minutes walk, great atmosphere and the best meals we have had for ages. The Bulls Head wins the vote if you only have 1 night - the Creme Brulees were something else!). I don't think you will be disappointed - there was another large campsite down the road that looked as if they just said YES to every camper, really packed and absolutely ridiculous. Have a good time!
