As we live less than an hour away from this site we use it as our local getaway and usually visit around two or three times a year. The site is great for walkers, cyclists and birdwatchers, we always find a nearby footpath that we have yet to discover. The site is in a very good position for visiting nearby Matlock, Bakewell and other pretty peak district villages along with numerous National Trust properties, it is only around half an hours drive to Alton Towers. The site is always kept clean and tidy by the hard working wardens, we have travelled hundreds of miles to other sites but always enjoy our local site just as much.
