Lovely site, not far from where I live so handy as it was the 1st caravan site I've ever visited. No showers and patchy Wi-Fi were the only negative points. Luckily we had a shower in the van so no real hardship. Would definitely visit again.
Beautiful Site and Peaceful Location
Spent 3 nights at Carsington and was very impressed as our first visit to the area. Site excellent and a warm welcome from the lady at the reception. Very clean and tidy. Ideal for walking with our Golden Retreiver as there are several good scenic walks which vary in distance (map available for a small fee at reception)also the dog walk circles the whole site, so you are never far from an entrance to the wooded area. The Lake is beautiful and the visitors centre a leisurely stroll away, is a great place to visit for a picnic, coffee or a meal at the restaurant, with one or two retail shops in the centre to have a wander round. Will definitely visit many times in the future as not far from home for tranquil weekends away. Set in a lovely pine forest this site is a gem of a find.
Excellent site
We had a fantastic weekend at Carsington, helped by lovely weather so late in September.
Showers were down unfortunately due to a boiler failure but otherwise a site to return to.
Lovely site with excellent facilties
Just returned from a lovely weekend at this site and will definitely return! The site is very well maintained and the toilet block was one of the cleanest I have been in! The radio playing is a nice touch too!
Great play areas for the kids and the shop was well stocked.
Staff were always on hand and very helpful.

perfect
Arrived on 13 sept for 6 nights from newcastle, new to touring and was very impressed with this site, everything was perfect, would definitely return
Happy stay
Arrived 18 Sept. Found excellent pitch. Set up camp. Had a chat with lovely lady in reception (from Buckie). Went for walk along Carsington Water. Lovely. Showers unfortunately U/S and not able to be fixed until Monday but hot water at sinks so will make do. Visited Tram Museum with voucher from 'lovely lady' saving one entry fee. Thanks. Weather lovely until Monday 21. Packed up Tuesday and sorry to leave. Thanks for a lovely stay at a lovely site. We'll be back.

Short break
Our 2nd visit to Carsington was as good as expected. Excellent site and location, wardens very nice, facilities immaculate. If you fancy a quiet few days with excellent scenery and walking this is the place for you.
Excellent.
We stayed here for a long weekend, Stayed with friends, as this site was central to us all
The staff were great & friendly
We walked down to Carsington water, a short walk away, a path leading from in car parks entrance, an easy walk to the visitors centre, As luck would have it it was Derbyshire day, it had excellent village fete there along with Radio Derby a good day
The Lake walk is 8 miles around, a nice and flat and easy walk, it would also make a good bike ride.
This is a excellent site and we will be back again.
