 Lovely quiet place. You definitely need levelers and the signage is non existent. But just a short walk to the village (took us 6mins and we are old codgers) and bus stops.

The boat inn had the best beer and food and the cafe Parkys had the best bacon cob we have eaten in a long time, didn't eat at the hotel, so cannot comment on food. Although we did have an evening drink on the patio and found the staff very friendly and helpful.

We will definitely return.

 First time we have visited this site.

Check in is at the beautiful Oakhill Hotel. Staff are all very pleasant. We had a drink in the hotel and sat in their beautiful gardens.

4 hardstanding pitches, no facilities other than one toilet. Elsan, water and ehu.

25-30 minutes easy stroll into Matlock Bath, plenty of pubs and places to eat, of course a few arcades for those who want to visit.

So many walks in the area a lot obviously up hill because of where you are.

Opposite the entrance to the hotel is a path that leads to the canal for a lovely walk. With a free musuem, toilets and somewhere to get a drink or snacks.

A 10 minutes if that stroll into Cromford brings you to a couple of pubs, (the Boat Inn our favourite) fish and chip shop etc.

Would definitely return even though I think at £25 a night with no facilities is a little steep although I guess you are paying for the location.

Thank you to all the staff who made us feel very welcome 😊

 This is the second time we have stopped here.

Lovely friendly efficient on arrival, 6 clean tidy electric hook ups behind a beautiful hotel with a simple outdoor toilet and water tap. Views over Cromford, walking distance to Matlock bath.

Great kids park area We even treated ourselves to a v nice breakfast in the hotel.

 I am loath to give a glowing review, because the place will be swamped!

The truth will out though, this is a precious find, you enter through the hotel grounds, book in a reception where I was greeted by the most charming lady. And found the ? 6- 8 pitches beautifully spaced.

The facilities are limited to a toilet, but the hotel is open for food and bar.

Cromford village literally backs onto the hotel grounds, small playing area (council owned) appeared well maintained, it's a short stroll into Matlock Bath too.

I'll be back.

 Set in the grounds of a splendid Georgian hotel, check-in is in the hotel reception, where the delightful Sharon treats you as she would her hotel guests.

There are four reasonably flat, hard standing pitches and one grass pitch with electric. In the grounds tall elm and sycamore standing sentry over a pastoral view.

Behind is raised decking with seating and gazebo, against the garden wall should you wish to sit away from your van.

The hotel welcomes non residents at the bar and for food. Try and order a bottle of the strong Oak Hill cider made less than a minute away from the campsite, if they have any left!.

Across from the campsite gates is Cromford's children's play area well maintained swings etc.

To the left you take a 5 minute stroll onto North Street and a "proper pub" on the corner. Cromford is literally the birthplace of the industrial revolution, so there is plenty of history from the late 1700's to see.

Now, the caveat, there is only one toilet on the campsite, but you can use the bar when open of course, and no shower.

I wanted to keep this hidden delight to myself but, maybe Arkwright's social benevolence has rubbed off on me. 😁

 My wife and I chose this location for a quiet and much needed weekend break.

There were a few issues with my booking but nothing to shout about.

Outstanding food and really friendly staff.

 The first impression of rolling up at Oakhill is of an elegant and impressive country hotel, and the second is of how friendly and helpful the staff are.

After registration at reception I was escorted to the small 5 pitch site behind the hotel gardens.

The site is leafy, slightly sloping and graced with a cider and honey producing smallholding.

Facilities provided are a toilet with washing basin, water points and waste disposal, as these facilities are serviced by hotel groundstaff they are always well maintained.

You are invited to dine in the hotel or drink in the bar, where you can sample the potent cider produced next door!

At night the site is quiet despite being only yards from the A6.

Cromford village boasts a bookshop, several cafes, good pubs and boasts a Tapas bar.

I opted to breakfast in the hotel with the hotel guests, it was very good and I look forward to visiting this delightful site again very soon.

 Really lovely location and kind and welcoming owners.

A simple setup and a really peaceful night. It has all we needed, no park for the kids but my son loved running around the open field and small area of wood near our spot.

We had a really great time and will definitely be going back!

 First let me say that I think changes must have been made between the reviews of 2015 and that of last year. The name also seems to have changed and it is now Oakhill.

The location is excellent. The village of Cromford with its historic Mill and peaceful Canal are less than five minutes away on foot. There are pubs, restaurants and cafes and a small supermarket. But best of all there are frequent bus services that can take you along the Derwent Valley to Matlock, Bakewell and beyond, or the other way to Derby. We didn't move our campervan at all during our stay

The facilities of the campsite are basic but clean. It has one outside toilet with a cold water hand-basin but no warm water or showers. The pitches are quite level but there are slabs of stone available for placing under the wheels for minor adjustments.

The hotel reception team gave us a warm welcome and provided helpful local information. We didn't eat in the restaurant but it is available for non-residents.

Highly recommended.
