One of our favourite sites... only a couple of niggles

We love this site. All the pitches lie within a Scots Pine plantation and the smell and feel of the place makes you feel like you're 'wild-camping' rather than staying on a formal campsite. There are lovely views of the nearby Carsington Water from one side of the site and an easy walk to the visitors' centre by the lake. Facilities on-site are very modern and and spotlessly clean. The wardens are welcoming, helpful and fiendly and the site is ideal for exploring the surrounding Peak District. There is a nice dog-walk from the site and a good Fish & Chip van visits on Wed evenings and Pizza on Sat nights. Our only 'niggles' are that the hard-standing pitches here are badly in need of a refurbishment with most of them gradually returning to nature. In the majority of them you cannot tell where the grass ends and the pitch begins, they are so overgrown. The other 'niggle' applies to all CAMC sites, and that is their failure to reinstate shower curtains in the toilet blocks now that Covid restrictions have been lifted. Come on CAMC; do your job and fix these things!
