Winters Stay a must

Goatfell Farm
3rd time here first time snow camping. Everything you need here for a CL, excellent hard standing pitches, plenty of room, site a sloping but fine with a ramp. All pitches are serviced with EHU, Tap and grey water although as it was down to -10 when we were there, it wasnt worth connecting up as your pipes would have frozen :-) Owners really helpful, especially when it came to digging us out after 2 prior departures turned the exit road into an ice rink dragging their units out the Jeremy Clarkson way ( if you know, you know ) Excellent weekend or longer stop plenty to do and see and peaceful at night. Shower / Toilet wet room a real bonus too.

Excellent value

Goatfell Farm
The pitches are nicely spaced out and the whole site is well kept with a nice open feel. Very easy access, clean large shower and toilet, ample dog walk area (though it isn't gated so depending on your dog you may need to keep them on a lead) and serviced pitches at £22 per night is excellent value. Although this gives the feel of being of being remote, it's only 10 mins to Leek where there are several supermarkets, 5 mins in the opposite direction is "the Cottage Kitchen" cafe with an excellent menu including an all day breakfast (dog friendly on outside covered terrace). There is also an Indian take away at the first junction just down the road! Having stayed almost exclusively at club sites up until the start of this year, and having now used 3 CL's and an independent site, we are looking at CL's as our preferred choice for the future and this would be top of our list if we return to that area. Would recommend.

Fabulous dog friendly site

Goatfell Farm
Had a fabulous weekend at Goatfell farm. Lovely big fully serviced hard standing pitches and spotless washing up area, shower and toilet. Great dog exercise area. Perfect site to access the Staffordshire Moorlands, close to the Roaches, Rudyard lake, Leek and the Peak District. Sally and Martin are perfect hosts, discrete but there if you need them and you can even buy some of Sallys super plants …. We can highly recommend and we will be back

Absolutely fabulous

Goatfell Farm
We have just spent 4 nights here. Immaculately kept, plenty of space, friendly owners. Lots of lovely wildflower areas. Large dog exercise field was such a plus for our two youngsters. Great base for exploring. We loved Rudyard Lake and the Roaches. Will be returning soon!
