Great access to Cromford Canal & High Peak Trail

We stayed at Splash Farm for 4 nights in mid-October 2021. As others have said, the site is compact but most of the pitches have hedging that gives a certain amount of privacy. The access into the site looks a bit daunting but is actually fine, if a little tight. Manoeuvring onto your designated pitches might be a bit of an issue for some larger units but we were a 7.4m long motorhome and access was fine. Although the pitches look to be grass, there is actually reinforced matting beneath and thus are deemed “all weather” pitches. Each pitch has a dedicated electric point and water tap as well as a TV connection point, as there is virtually no terrestrial TV coverage. Make sure that you receive a copy of the site instructions from the site owners as this will tell you how to go about connecting up your TV system via. the supplied Digi-boxes and cables. We didn’t and it was by phoning the owners did we find out what we needed to do! There are plentiful walks & cycle routes either direct from the site or by heading the 10-minute walk to High Peak Junction which is part way along the Cromford Canal as well as the end/start of the High Peak Trail. At this time, the road between Cromford & Lea Bridge is still closed, so the route into the site needs to come from the A615 Matlock to Alfreton Road. The above-mentioned site instructions give all the required information about this. We didn’t get to meet the site owners but they were helpful on the phone and the site was well kept. £15 per night was just about right.
