Haven of Peace

Just enjoyed 5 nights here for the first time we where impressed by the upkeep of the site and surrounding areas lovely peacefull area great access for oudoor activities, although can be some early evening noise from adjacent site that seems to attract school groups doing D of E awards etc not a huge problem though.As previous posts have stated would have been nice to put a face to the site owners just to say hello did feel a bit of a pain having primary communication at the end of a phone.Oh and dont forget your own loo roll ran out and not replaced for three days during our stay .As for the entrance/exit our van is single axle 6.7M long and found no problems although can see longer twin axle units struggle entering saying that a huge American style RV turned up one day and coped admirably.

A lovely site and lovely owners

I am not sure I should be writing this as I really want this site to be my little secret! We have stayed there at Easter for a couple of years and each time we have stayed, we have been welcomed by the friendly owners. Care does need to be taken when accessing the site field and exiting with a caravan, but this can be negotiated with care. It is a beautiful location and there are walks from the site to the nearby village and dale. The field is large and is well-maintained. You are left to your own devices but the owners are on hand if needed. A real find and a credit as a CL. Infact, I tend to base other visits to other CLs on the standard set by this one.

Rainy weekend

A well kept site with what looked like three hardstanding and two grass pitches. We arrived in the dark and couldn't work out where our pitch was. Fortunately the owner came and pointed out the pitch which we set up on (pitch 5 under the telegraph pole). This was the only time we saw the owner(s) all weekend. To be perfectly honest we felt more of a hinderence than a visitor mainly because of the posters everywhere stating "that you are not to go to the house or cottage. If you have problems ring this number and leave your money in the honesty box". I don't want to be best friends with any of the CL owners but I would like to see who I am paying my money too and not leaving it in a box to be collected sometime by someone. It rained most of the weekend so we were pleased to be on hardstanding. We just spent a quiet weekend away relaxing. The tv reception is poor but we did manage to get all the main chanels. Lots of walking to do around the area and plenty of places to visit.

Beautiful and quiet location. Mind when exiting!

This is a beautiful location, and quiet, in an obviously popular area, as there are several other camping and caravan sites in the locality. The site felt it should be aimed at couples as the additional costs for children/ extra adults, start to put it into club site money. The views are stunning and worth the fees alone and the owners friendly. You do need to take care, especially leaving the pitches into the drive, as it is a tight turn, and longer 'vans may struggle if not " lined up properly"? Dispite this, we will definitely be booking again. Thanks for the stay

Route

I stayed on this CL for a few days in early September.Perfectly located for walking and exploring the surrounding countryside. Great views and the facilities are as described, this is a CL I would recommend with a good choice a pubs serving food within a few miles. Care has to be taken on arrival but the biggest problem was using the route planner associated with the caravan club Web pages. The route given from my home address via Bakewell was dangerous. I was directed for absolutely no reason through two exceptionally narrow and steep side roads.I recognise that the planner does have warnings attached, but then why offer it for members use?. Once on these roads you are comitted and to repeat it was completely and utterly unsuitable for caravans and even for any largish car!!. Use the directions given by the CL owners.
