 Very nice little camspite. Easy to find. Owner ensured everyone was well-spaced.
Functional facilities but be sure to turn on the shower coinmeter (by pull-cord) before inserting your 20p (6mins)!
Bitten to death with midges but I get that everywhere I go!

Very positive experience, the owner was accommodating to our situation.
The toilets are clean and showers were very comfortably warm, but you will need a 20p coin for 6 minutes of hot shower time.
There is also a tap out the side of the toilet/shower block which can be used to clean your cooking wares.
Also very close to horseshoe quarry (less than 10 minutes by car), and near a well stocked spar and Co-op.

There are stunning views and amazing walks right on the doorstep. It is a clean site and has a very friendly and helpful owner.
It is ideally located for visiting Sheffield or all that the Peak District has to offer.
We will be coming back.

Very nice little site set in a picturesque location with coffee shop & pub just a short walk away.
Male & female toilets with 1 shower each, very basic but does the job & is cleaned daily.
Will be returning to this site again.

A small quiet site in a lovely location.
The facilities are basic but fine. Easy walk to pubs and a good local Spa shop.
Good base for climbing at Curbar Edge, etc.

Great welcome from Richard which included a lot of local information and history about the farm site and surrounding area.
Fantastic location with wonderful views and walks straight from the site. Close to cafe, gift shop and pub all well worth a visit.
Loos And showers a bit on the basic side but adequate. A bit pricy given the facilities but the location justifies this.
We had the site almost to ourselves which was an added bonus.

We arrived at 10am in the morning. We knocked on the door, no answer. So I phoned the number. He was rude on the phone. And then when he came out he came right up to our window (no social distancing) and shouted at us so the other campers could here telling us we arrived too early. Then let us stay.
We later on spoke to a couple who knocked on the door got no answer and decided to pitch up. He wasn't happy about that either.
The location is fantastic. Great walks and pubs around the area.

A perfect quiet, sheltered, site with Curbar Edge as its backdrop. On our second visit within two weeks, we’ll definitely be back again.
The site is sheltered by trees and its setting, well drained ground and well kept short grass. We visited during a particularly wet spell that would test any site’s maintenance and were pleasantly surprised.
Sheep and cows grazing in neighbouring fields.
Facilities are basic and a little dated but fully functional and serve their purpose well. Owner on site, knowledgeable and helpful. Shops, garage and pubs within short walk.
An ideal site for campers with dogs, has a real community feel whilst being small and away from the road, pitches well spaced.

Travelled with my mum my boyfriend and my dog. Very nice quiet site. Owner greeted us lovely man. The views were amazing from the site. Lovely view of hope valley ridge.
Dog friendly. A public footpath runs along the site into a field so it was perfect for walking the dog. Hot shower very nice. 0. 20p for 6 mins and comes on straight away.
Toilets are clean with toilet tissue and sanitary bags provided. Pub a short walk away. Petrol station and spar approx a 10 min walk.
Very peaceful and quiet. Other visitors were friendly too. A lot of visitors are regulars which says a lot about the site. Booking our next trip soon.

Beautiful location but poor facilities
Site is set in a beautiful location with a stunning view of Curbar Edge, ideal location for walking in The Peak District and for visiting many places including Bakewell, Chatsworth and Chesterfield.
The grass site is sloping, in both directions, but grass is well kept.
The facilities, in my opinion, are very poor for the nightly fee charged. Toilet and shower block is very dated, very basic and needs a revamp. Shower is 20p for (a very quick) 6 minutes. The shower does not provide for much privacy, the basic cubicle is screened only by a nylon shower curtain which a further curtain (old and stained) inside the cubicle surrounding the shower tray.
The coin meter for the shower is located outside of the curtained area, across the other side of the room, the water supply is activated as soon as you put the coon in, so you need to undress, wrap in a towel, dash out across the room to feed the coin meter and then return to shower, if more time is needed, you need to repeat this process whitest wet and soapy, risking bumping into a fellow camper!
It was clear that the shower/toilet block was not cleaned daily, with dry grass on the floor not swept up for several days and the overflowing bin not emptied.
The site was used nightly by youth walking groups ( Duke of Edinburgh type groups) so could get very busy during the evenings, however the young people that we saw, different groups each night, were all a credit to their organisation and to the leaders. They were all very polite, noise was minimal with no bad language.
Overall I thought this site was overpriced for the standard of facilities offered, it is probably best suited for hikers just needing a one night stop over or to those who use the full toilet and shower facilities in their own caravan.

The location of this site is what makes it. It is situated next to a public footpath which runs along a river towards Calver weir. There's plenty of walking from the site itself.
The site is only a short drive away from Chatsworth and Bakewell, as well as walks along Baslow/Curbar/Froggatt Edges (all well worth it for the views!)
It is only a 20 minute drive to the town of Chesterfield, with its famous "Crooked Spire".
The thing that lets the site down is the facilities. I don't think they have been updated since I stayed there as a kid in the early 90s.
Although they do the job, they aren't pleasant to use. I've stayed at other sites for a similar price with the same facilities, but which were much nicer to use. And didn't have to pay extra for the showers!

Stunning views from this site. Lovely walks by the river and an excellent pub 5 minutes walk. Just off the main road down a long driveway.
Stayed one night with friends with EHU. Basic facilities but they serve the purpose. Owner very friendly and accommodating.
Will definitely return.

Great location site with beautiful views. Facilities are basic but functional. 20p for shower and 2 toilets. Located by the river and a great rope swing for the kids. Ducks walking about the site. Fresh water. Very helpful owner who lives on site. Glad to have found this little gem. We will be back.

Do not be tempted if any rain. This site was completely submerged. All vans got stuck and caravan was nearly totalled trying to get towed off the grass. The site itself is well situated and good walks straight from the van.
