Nice site

We spent three nights at this site and it started with an efficient and pleasant welcome when we arrived onsite.  The pitches were quite well spaced and well kept and we found one in a corner that suited us.  The location of the site is great and the rock escarpment running along the back was and interesting and sheltering feature.  Being to the north of the site meant that it shouldn't block the sun much.  Unfortunately we don't know for sure as there was no sun when we were there. The shower and toilet block is well kept but a little tired.  Not bad enough to stop us wanting to visit again though and everything worked.  We noticed a planning application for the refurbishment and extension of the facilities so it seems matters are in hand. A small criticism is that the gents showers run a little slowly (fair enough to save water) but the fixed shower heads means the water stays very close to the wall. You have to lean in close to to one side at a time often burning yourself on the hot down pipe.  This could easily be remedied by moving the shower heads further out from the wall and I hope this is taken into account during refurbishment.  The walks through the country park into Buxton are great.  Not too long and you feel like you have earned your drink or meal when you get there.  Two good beer guide pubs including the Cheshire Cheese at which we had an excellent Sunday roast lunch at 2 for £15.  we needed the walk back after these.
