Beautiful rural location surrounded by ancient archaeological history and Peak District hills.
You pitch up at the edges of large meadows and are allocated your own loo next to the tent (covid friendly). Suitable for large groups looking for relaxed festival vibes at the weekends.
Go on a Sunday night for a nearly empty field with just the stars and local bats to keep you company.
The owners are really great, very friendly and helpful.

Loved this site. Stripped back to just a compost loo and a water tap. The general area is very peaceful and tranquil although it was lovely to see children on site having a great time.
The vibe is very laid back and the owners are very friendly. We had stunning views across Peak District valleys from our pitch at the top of the first field.
Being able to order organic meats for bbq and breakfast from the farm is great.
I'm certain this site will not suit the tastes of everybody but it's a 10/10 for me and will definitely be back in the future.

What an amazing weekend, back to good old basic camping compost loo the lot, not commercialized the nearest tent to us was well away for your own even a field away in places!
A hidden gem of a place! WOW and WOW, the views, the animals horses, cows, chickens, geese and sheep all next to you, fresh organic meat bought and logs for the fire brought from the farm for our bbq, with a golden campfire burning away, lying on the airbed watching the meteor shower at the top of the hill!
Stress what stress? met a lovely lady called Jill who I got chatting too, she told me all about the animals and the history of the place and where to visit.
We as a family will be going back as often as time allows. SHHHHHH please don't tell everyone!

Spent 2 very comfortable nights here courtesy of Bob. The site supplies a field, water and dry toilets - that's it and its lovely. Bob the farmer is great host, very friendly to talk to and offers a great range of meats and eggs for sale.
There are three fields and we stayed in the top most which feels very isolated and that is a good thing. The site was empty bar us but I understand can be busy so email ahead to check. Directions and information email from Bob was great and very welcoming.
Fires in the supplied burners are allowed, bring your own wood (no nails) or buy from Bob at good rates. We were there for cycling and there are some great routes on and off road, and some dedicated trails for family cycling, in the area.
Would recommend and next time am bringing a freezer box so I stock up on meat for taking back!
Ps Ignore the no star rating from me for kids - we had none with us so its n/a!

I would highly recommend this campsite for those who want a complete break from anything past 1970 :D it is brilliant for allowing kids a taste of their parent's childhood.
First, the information sent by Bob following email contact was accurate and ensured we had no problems finding the site or understanding the set-up.
Our greeting on arrival was friendly and informative and we made our way up a steep hill to find a level pitch with a great view. To the delight of our children (10 and 13) we were surrounded by sheep, geese, lambs, chicken, ponies, goats and a calf which they helped with bottle feeding a little later (the farm supports youth volunteers learning the trade so is good at supporting kids tasting working with animals while camping)
Facilities were basic, a tap and compost toilet but that is what we wanted. As close to wild camping without falling over. Children spent their time running around freely, safely and enjoyed a real freedom there. They also got an insight into animal welfare and the end product of organic, animal friendly farming.
Ashbourne is 10 minutes drive and the supermarkets easy to find to top up supplies as needed. Ashbourne itself is a pretty town and easy to spend a day pottering about. You are near loads of touristy stuff, indoor and outdoor with loads to do for all ages interests and physical ability.
I like a fire and a barbie, the fire pit was great and we lived on meat from the farm (and a bit of salad) buy in the morning so it is defrosted for easier cooking in the evening. I cannot begin to describe the quality of the meat apart from to say my freezer at home is stuffed with lamb and beef steaks and lovely bacon. We have one vegetarian who was comfortable with the process as she could easily see the quality of life the animals had. A truly illuminating experience with education from anyone we approached on the farm and we left far more aware than we arrived.
This is one of the nicest and most interesting places I have stayed and would highly recommend it. I will be back and was aware there were quite a few repeat customers while I was there. My only warning is that if you find happy noisy children irritating come out of school holidays. To be honest there is so much space it is hard to impinge on your fellow camper.
IMPORTANT recycling is key to the sires success, check what you can recycle as you arrive as you will get rid of most of what you use.
