Maybe Our Favourite

We've not been caravanning long but this is our most popular destination. Very quiet site, friendly wardens and always really nice and clean. Nothing is too much trouble if you need a helping hand which we did in the early days still learning about the van. Lovely walks from the site and easy to nip into town to stock up. Definitely recommended and certainly somewhere we will go back. Even glad the phones don't work too well to ensure the peace and quiet

Nice site but tired

Stayed for four nights the site is pleasant enough and the wardens lovely people,but the shower block is looking very tired and in serious need of a refurbishment The wardens keep it very clean but it was a disappointment Mobile phones don't work on site and the wifi wasn't very good either All in all don't think we would return to this site

No complaints

The site is comparably with other CC sites and has no obvious faults. The Caravan Club web page indicated the site was full but we booked by phone and there were ample pitches available. Papers ordered on each of the three days of our visit. Plenty of dog walking off-site among the woods to Pooles Cavern and Buxton and also the paths to Solomon Temple. We returned home considerably fitter than when we arrived, everywhere is uphill on the way out or way back to the site, and those of limited mobility or pushchair users would struggle to walk far from the site. There appears to be no mobile phone coverage on site but a land line phone is available. There was heavy rain one night but the site drained well and pools/puddles were minimal.

Just spent four nights at Buxton and we were impressed by this peaceful & friendly site. Ideal for accessing nearby walks with the dog and some nice dog friendly pubs in the area too. The facilities are great, all nice and clean & there is a good TV reception with the use of an extension cable. As new members we were happy with our stay & will visit again.

Weekend break

We have just had a little weekend break to start our season off. We don't live to far from this site. But access was great into the site and we arrived a little early but it was not a problem at all. Staff were very helpful and nothing was to much trouble. Site facilities were extremely clean also the same for the site. We will be visiting again very soon for another weekend break.

Lovely setting

We have just arrived back after staying two nights on this site. The location is perfect - in an old quarry, and within walking distance of Buxton town centre. The pitches are large and the site is well maintained. The wardens are extremely helpful and friendly. Our only gripe is with some caravanners who think everyone wants to listen to their radio. We could hear the radio of the people next door when our windows and door were closed. Definately not peaceful!!!

Great base site

We stayed here for five nights just after the easter break,the wardens were very helpfull and knowledgeable of the local area,and did a good job keeping the site spick and span,my wife uses a dissability scooter and found it nigh on impossible to go anywhere form the site on it,that said the surrounding towns and villages were accessible to her,from the site you could go walking in the peaks for mile upon mile,although there wasnt a dog walk on site there were plenty of places to exercise your dog within a hundred metres of the site,one small down point,there was a public picnic area next to the site which did get noisey on a couple of occasions,but from mid april the warden locks the gates to the picnic area so late night noise,would i visit again,yes i would.
