Peaceful weekend
Great location
Spot On
The CC facilities are as expected. Despite all of the trees it does not feel oppressive or hemmed in. There is a circular dog walk around the perimeter of the site through the woods. This is out of sight of the pitches and very pleasant if dry. The lake is barely a ten minute walk away with a well constructed path around it. About 8 miles long that can be walked or safely cycled. All the surrounding towns and villages are beautiful, plenty of small local shops as well as supermarket's. Try to plan your days out in advance because you are truly spoilt for choice. Miles of safe cycle routes. Walks with or without the dogs. Dovedale is a must. Parking at the national stone centre is cheap and perfectly located for exploring the lower part of the high peaks trail. Wirksworth village is the nearest for shops and has a co-op. Ashbourne the nearest large town. Other than the lake, nothing else is in easy walking distance so stock up and plan ahead. This is probably one of the few sites that I have been to that I would be keen to revisit, after ten days we still had so much we wanted to do and see.
Picturesque
Perfect little break away!
Well maintained but so rigid!
