Peaceful, friendly and lovely location.

Spent 10 nights on this beautiful Cl, friendly welcome and lovely large hard standing pitches. Beautifully situated above Tissington village with fantastic walks from site, only a short distance from the Tissington Trail so excellent for cycling. A short walk down the lane, there's a butchers and in the village a wonderful cafe. There is a bus stop in the village although we had our own transport. Ed and Kathryn were staying in their caravan on site for a few days and were very friendly always greeting with a smile. During our stay, we went to Dovedale, Ilam, Cromford, Bakewell, Carsington Water and Hartington where there are wonderful walks within easy reach. Looking forward to staying again next year.

Lovely peaceful CL

We have just stayed for a long weekend at this CL. Absolutely perfect. Beautiful surroundings, very peaceful, good size pitches. Owner friendly and helpful, telling us that if we needed anything just get in touch. Will definitely return

GOOD SITE, PITY ABOUT THE OWNERS IGNORING US DURING OUR STAY.

We stayed 7 nights This is a well laid out CL with 5 hard standings, one chemical disposal point and 2 water taps ( that were extremely slow 22 min to fill an aqua roll !), BUT the owners did not welcombe or speak to us at all during our stay, (although they regularly chatted at length to their other quests).

A Magical Spot

What a magical spot! It was exactly what we wanted as a peaceful one-night stopover on our way to Scotland in our new motor home. The surrounding area was beautiful, and we especially enjoyed walking around the village looking at the wells, which we had read about in the little Methodist Church near the site. We would love to return to see the annual Well Dressing ceremony! I would really recommend this campsite for the tranquillity, the friendliness of the owners, and the stunning views. Sally and Simon

Excellent site!

We have just returned home after 5 nights at Tissington. What a joy! I can only really echo what others have already written. The site is very quiet and peaceful, being located just above the village, and is perfectly located on a hillside with views across the surrounding countryside. It is, however, one of those sites where you can turn off the engine, set up the van, and then soak up the silence. 'And breathe...' It is a few minutes walk from the Tissington Trail, but also within easy reach of Ashbourne and all the attractions that the Peak District has to offer. There is lots of local information by the gate. The hard-standing pitches are very wide and ours easily accommodated the car, caravan and awning, with room to spare. Booking with Ed and Kate was simple and the pitch was marked with our name, so we had no problems finding our space. Our son lives in Ashbourne, so we will look forward to returning to Tissington very soon. Thank you, Ed, for making us feel so welcome.

First time here, won't be the last. Amazing location, good pitches with fantastic views. Easy access to the village and dozens of walks. Thoroughly recommended.

Fantastic site!

We've just returned from a 4 night stay at this lovely site. Easy to find and our huge hardstanding pitch was clearly marked for us so despite arriving just as it was turning dark we were able to get in and get set up with no fuss. The views from the site are classically Peak District, big skies, rolling fields, stone walls, and stone buildings. Tissington is a beautiful village although at this time of year there wasn't anything open other than the great local butchers just along the lane. Didn't use the van at all during our stay, there are stunning walks from the site in every direction - the Tissington Trail gives an easy 4 miles down to Ashbourne, on another day we went further afield (lots of fields!) across to Ilam, Milldale, and Dovedale. If we had stayed longer we probably would have made use of the bus service to investigate the nearest towns but we were enjoying the walking so much we didn't bother. Would definitely recommend this site and hope to be back again one day.

A Perfect site!!!

Wow What a site -this is how to run a CL site nothing is too much trouble lovely relaxed atmosphere Ed and Kat are caravanners themselves which makes a huge difference if you have your own facilities you cannot do better than stay here . They have bookings till November -that really says it all unsurprisingly we are booked for 2022 already even the hailstones !! in May did not detract and looking over a field with calves being born was magical Ed and Kat keep doing what you are doing you are a credit to the BEST CL sites Regards Steve and Jackie and Mason the giant Schnauzer!!!

First Swallows of 2021!

Beautiful, peaceful and spacious site. Very well managed and maintained by Ed and Kathryn. Will definitely book again although very little availability until November - what a surprise!!! Fantastic for walking and cycling or just relaxing and enjoying the countryside. Great butchers close by. Access to Tissington trail very easy and the scenery is amazing. The swallows had just arrived and the sun shone for 4/5 days. A great start to our 2021 season and for our first trip after lockdown.

We Will Return !!

Lovely site, the pitches have plenty of space in a lovely large field. Hard standing and grass pitches. Very peaceful, great scenery. Just a couple of minutes walk to the butchers, Tissington Trail, and the village. A great find ! Our first time in this part of Derbyshire and with a bit of research before arriving there are many beautiful walks nearby. Before arriving the owners leave a board with your surname on it, on your pitch, if they are not around when you arrive as we found, then they came later in the day to welcome arrivals and sanitize where needed. You need your own facilities. Will certainly be returning soon.
