Value For Money

Offley Place
Yes the main entrance and entrance to where caravans are pitched are ‘tight’ but we were warned about this in booking so we’ll have prepared. The pitches for the caravans are a little close together but we had ample room when we visited. Ingrid the owner likes to keep the grass areas to one end solely for small caravans and not motorhomes as it can get boggy and difficult for the motorhomes. Yes there are things that could be done to improve this site, there are some amazing views from the fields but these are not used for the vans. It is a shame but it wouldn’t put us off using this site again as £12 a night is good value for money. It was quiet, we had water and electricity, didn’t use on site loo or shower used ours in van. We had amazing weather and met nice people. Owner Ingrid me a really really nice and friendly.

Good no frills location for the Peak District

Offley Place
Basic grass pitch on a quiet site behind a barn. EHU, Stand pie and chemical waste point. Not much more you need from a CL site. Owners never troubled us and we had to knock on door to pay when leaving. Great location for Bakewell, Eyam and Chesterfield.

Disappointing

Offley Place
Having read previous reviews and looked at the photos we were looking forward to 5 days away in our caravan. The entrance was very difficult to negotiate from Chesterfield. The marked pitches were close together and, apart from the first grass pitch there were NO views, as suggested in the photos, some of which were taken from the owner's garden. The narrow strip of grass was very wet and, as others have mentioned, we had to park our car close to the barn. As this was our only view we were not impressed. The overhanging trees meant that the heavy rain we experienced was deafening on our roof and several twigs fell on the roof which, hopefully have not dented it. We were worried about the floor of the washroom/toilet collapsing as it was very spongy. One of the worst cls we have experienced in 35 years of owning a caravan.

Not as expected.

Offley Place
As previously stated very tight turn between stone pillars to access site. If you have a larger van you will need a mover to site your van as the pitches are very restricted. The pitches are under oak trees which ensures a steady bombardment of acorns at this time of year plus drips after rainfall. We were told to not park next to the van as the grass was too wet! Once sited the outlook is onto a long stone wall of a barn and not the great views that the photos promise. Toilet/shower was very tired with a broken toilet seat and a very spongy floor that feels unsafe. The shower gave lots of hot water but the flooring under the lino, around the toilet, looked very wet after use. The vans were sited close to each other which meant that we were woken each morning by the couple in the van next to us getting up at 6am and putting their bedding away! The site is relatively cheap, but again not the £6 on the advert. We also will not return.

not particularly motorhome friendly

Offley Place
Very tight turn in when arriving from Chesterfield, but had been well warned by the owner when booking so not a problem. Met by the owner who had told us on our telephone booking that he was full, but could squeeze our motorhome on the hardstanding, then move it the next day. We were very surprised on arrival to find only 2 caravans on the grass pitches and asked if we could pitch on the grass (he was obviously not full); attitude changed and he impatiently insisted we park our motorhome on the hardstanding, but could sit out on the grass if we wanted. The hardstanding was just wide enough to squeeze our van conversion hard up against the barn wall with our side door on the driveway. Nowhere to let our little dog sit out, or us, unless we walked over to the 'prohibited for motorhomes' grass pitches. Cars driving past inches from out heads (from residents of the property and various lived in caravans on the farm, and their visitors) until gone 11pm and noise from one of the caravans (admittedly not the owner's fault) meant this was not as peaceful as hoped. Access to footpaths, a country park with lakes and nearby Chesterfield are excellent. A second motorhome arrived and reversed onto the grass. the owner came out shouting that they could 'not park there', and told them in no uncertain terms to park on the hardstanding too. We felt most unwelcome and 'second rate' to caravaners. The price was not £6 for us (as advertised - unit and all occupants). This site cost us £11 per night, with no explanation as to why the price was almost double the advertised rate. We shall not return.
