Perfection!

Stayed for 5 nights in early September and immediately booked for 10 days for next year. Without doubt, the best CL we have stayed at. The 5 pitches are all hardstanding made from compressed limestone scalpings and level with a grid area for the awning. 16A mains and fresh water to each pitch and a soakaway drain for grey water. It is arranged so that you park your caravan front in, which gives a view over the lake, so a motor mover is helpful. There is a wooden building that houses a toilet pan that is used to empty toilet waste. It is kept clean and tidy. This also contains the rubbish bins. One helpful point is that all waste goes in together and the waste contractor sorts out the recycling, claiming a zero to landfill policy. The site is set in a huge meadow with a large lake, all manicured grass, more like a garden than a meadow with a mix of trees providing both shade and privacy. The location is about half way between Derby and Ashbourne and easily approached from the main road, although it is better to follow the road to the business park as the road through the village is narrow. It is well suited for all the attractions in the southern part of the Peak District, not too far for the entire Peak District and also for the attractions around Staffordshire. Quite often when staying at CLs, we think we might want to come back. this is the first one where we have actually booked for the following year before leaving.
