Great views, easy to find
Topley Head Farm
The site is basic with five pitches in a small field backing onto the main farm. Each pitch had it's own EHU point with the drinking water point at the lower end of the site. The hardstanding pitches were reasonably flat although small ramps may be needed.
We only met someone from the farm on the first night when we went to pay although often saw someone at a distance, As it was lambing time they seemed fully occupied. The views from the site are fantastic and the small field in front of the site had recent mothers and their lambs running around.
The site was a perfect place for seeing that area of Derbyshire with Ashbourne, Bakewell and Buxton all close by.
Great little ste with lovely views

Great Views
Topley Head Farm
Great place for a visit to the Monsal trail, or if you're a caravanner, visiting Buxton, Bakewell etc. Facilities are basic, but good hard standings with hook ups. Very close to the A6, but very little traffic noise. Farm animals can be a bit noisy, but it is a farm. We chose the pitch on the edge of the site so we could get the satellite dish pointing in the right direction. About a mile to the Church Inn at Chelwood, which had good beers, and a reasonable menu. The Anglers Rest in Millers Dale is about half an hour by bike, and well worth a visit.

Simple site with fantastic views
Topley Head Farm
This site is simple but was just what we needed. We liked being left to ourselves but found the farmer very friendly and welcoming when our children asked to visit the cows. Quite exposed so beware of strong winds but great views over the dales. Good access to Buxton, walks from site to cheedale and miller's dale.
Perfect position for visiting Buxton and Bakewell
Topley Head Farm
Just returned from two nights at this site. This is a quiet low key CL with fantastic views of the Peaks. Brilliant value as the nightly fee of £12 included electric hook up. A good location for driving into Buxton or Bakewell. The owner was friendly and helpful . If your a bit fussy you might like the grass cut shorter but the views over the hills make up for damp feet. Good parking for motorhomes as you drive into Buxton in the coach park. Easy to get into if you go in the morning and right at the end of the shopping area. Its about £5 for 4 hours but saves the hassle of finding somewhere in the town. A good CL that we will be returning to.
