 We have just returned form a weekend stay at Beacon Hill Camp Site and can only say it was the best value for money ever! The farmer, as said before is very friendly and even gave us a voucher for alton towers as we said we were going there for the day. He even let us put our dog in his kennel for the day whilst we were out. The shower room is designed for disabled access and is therefore quite large and like a wet room, and is kept very clean, there is one other single toilet unit which is older looking but still useable. I hope the site doesnt get too modern and the rates increase, as it is a very affordable stopping place for those on a tight budget.

Cross Farm is fab. Limited facilities 1 shower with toilet in 1 room and 1 porta loo but ok for the amount of pitches available. The only thing I would say was there was hundreds of wasps. I asked the farmer and he said he had burnt a couple of nests that day well you can imagine they had no nest to go to so there was loads and that's the only thing that spoilt it for me really. Not put me off too much we are going again on the bank holiday weekend and hopefully they will have dwindled to only a few.

This camp site is a little gem, tucked away but easy to find just off the A38 with the aid of a Sat Nav. Camp site is located up a private semi made up road so it can be a bit bumpy for caravan towing but easily achieved. Site is a field - level at the top with approx 10 pitches available with EHU, the field then slopes away and is not really suitable for tents but fine for caravans and tourers with levellers, no EHU is available on the sloped part but if you have extension on your EHU the owner would definitely accommodate. (i.E. Have 40mtr length of cable). On the slope there are 2-3 real campfire spots to have a real fire and wood is available on site. BBQ's are allowed but consider the grass and raise it off the ground with bricks (also available on site). TV reception excellent. Owner (retired farmer) is great and not intrusive but goes out of his way to help, even provided us with a 20mtr extension for the EHU without charge. No playground on site but plenty of play equipment for the kids, e.G. Bikes, trampolines, old tractor to play on. Only one toilet on site but it is excellent with disabled access, open plan shower so very easy for disabled persons. Plenty of hot water. Owner is building (50% complete) a new shower/toilet block and this will really enhance the camp site when completed. No facility to wash pots/pans, have to use the toilet washbasin, There is a small port-a-cabin toilet for use when the main one is in use. Warning - There is a large water run off pit at the bottom of the field used I think for storm water run off, it was empty (approx 6ft deep) at the time of the visit, but would pose a risk to small children if partially full as no fencing is provided, so be aware. No shop on site, so get yourself stocked up beforehand. Kids had a great time flying kites from the field, so take them along. Site was quiet when we visited (Sat/Sun night). Take a torch as well as lighting is limited. Alton towers is 40 min drive,
Last but not least £8/night for a tent including EHU.(large tent 4 persons) Need I say more.If you are not too fussed about life's luxury then pay this site a visit.

We booked this site after reading the reviews, and generally they were correct. The site is a little difficult to find as there is no sign at the end of the road, but I'm sure this will be rectified. There is plenty of space in the large field although some of it is on a slope, the grass is good and an effort has been made to plant gardens etc. The greatest problem for us was the toilet facilities, at the moment there is 1 toilet and 1 combined toilet/shower, on the Sunday morning there were 6 tents, some with families, and the facilities were in constant use, we got fed up of waiting and went out unwashed. The facilities are being built at the moment, so maybe next year? The village is a 15 min walk away, plenty of good pubs to eat in.
Because we were all fairly close together, a party on the Friday night kept us awake until nearly 1 am, and on the Saturday night, the children's' slides had been moved close to the tents and vans, and the children were playing out in the dark and rain until 11 pm. Sunday night was lovely and peaceful. Very cheap at £8 per night.

Just got back from another lovely weekend at Cross Farm. As this is a fairly new site each time we visit we see it developing. The shower block is now available with limited facilities with the use of a family shower room. The owner is always out an about with a welcoming smile and lots of enthusiasm and nothing is too much trouble. When he is not available his site supervisor is on hand to help and with his vast knowledge of the area he can always advise on the best local entertainments and places to eat. This site is ideal for shopping in the local town of Burton and you are only 30 minutes aways from the Derbyshire Peaks. We are always sad to leave and look forward to our next visit.

Just had my first experience of having a caravan using this site purely on reviews. It was better than revieved as more things have happened, there is now a shower room bigger than my whole bathroom. Yes the site is under construction but a sizeable chunk is up and running. When we arrived the farmer came over to help, a really lovely man, went out of his way to help us. The daughter spent most of her time tearing around on one of the many bikes available to use, it would be nice if other kids put them back after using them ! We will be using this site again soon as I want to see the extensive planting in flower, even the original thunderbox toilet has flowers growing up it. It was so peaceful, I could go on and on. Just visit it yourself.

We have just spent a long weekend at this site, It is essentially just a couple of fields (What more do you want?). Lots of water and hook up points sensibly placed. Brand new toilet block not quite finished but in use (it is not summer yet!)
Loads of kids toys available to all campers no charge, slides, basketball hoops, bikes galore. They are not shiny and new but the kids on site love them and parents don't worry about them being damaged resulting in charges.
Site is a work in progress (although it's not a half built building site and no work takes place whilst your on site apart from a bit of gardening and toilet cleaning which is only to be expected)
The owner is lovely chap (friendly farmer) who will even help you reverse your caravan into place if your a bit unsure yourself. He comes around the site often and passes the time or gives a cheery wave as you pass. There are no strict rules on site (although if you step too far out of line I'm sure he'd let you know) Having said this there appears to be an unwritten agreement of all quiet after 11-11.30pm and no littering.
Beautiful views lovely location lots of places locally to visit number, of local pubs a little walk down the hill also a local convenience store.
Petrol station 5-8mins away in either direction.

First time in a vw camper van with friend and 3 kids for week away from hubby. With a stressful start we arrived at 6pm and was met with a friendly farmer who could not do enough for us. Shower block being built ready in aug but was told that there would be no showers before we got there and just a portaloo which is always kept clean. Good elec hook up and great views, farmer even got toys out of his garden and gave to the kids to play with. A slide and other bits, and in morning came to check up that we were ok, great value for money even with no showers coming back very soon in our tent cant wait.

Owner is very welcoming. Just in the process of finishing the new toilet and shower block and re-organising the site, Ground a little muddy but no more than expected for the time of year.
Lovely views, 10mins from Burton town centre, 15mins from Derby, plenty of public houses that do food within 2mins, as well as a working mans club in the village that is very welcoming with live entertainment on a saturday.
We shall be returning in the summer as this is a good value site.

A gem of a site which is just going to get better, the official name is Beacon View Caravan Park, this was our first outing in our newly acquired trailer tent. There was myself, my wife and 3 children (2,3 & 11)with ehu (loaned to us by the site) our border collie and we had the awning up. The farmer has some play equipment and bikes which he made available for the children, there is nothing much on the site for them. YET, I say yet because the work in progress includes the building of a shower block as mentioned above, the first shower room (disabled & Family room) could well be ready for use sometime in August, a play area and parking area and general landscaping. This site has potential and is well on its way to realising this potential. Hook ups and drinking water is available along with flushable toilet and chemical toilet disposal point. We had the unit pitched for 7 nights but had to pop away for a couple of nights and ended up paying £30 unbelievable, and a CL too.
