Only a one nighter on our way home.We have been trying to visit again for almost 2 years but always booked up. Super site, one of our favourite ones to stay at, so much to do around here walking and cycling.
It also made a change that everyone kept to the site speed limits, not usually be the case at this site. We are booked for a longer stay in mid January which I booked a year ago to be sure and it's usually a wee bit of quieter then on the site and in the village too.
Excellent campsite and very helpful wardens
I often stay on this site due to its excellent location and excellent wardens .
The site is always well maintained as are the facilities
Nothing is too much trouble and I always have an excellent stay
Many thanks for ensuring that I have a good stay
Great site
Great site ,clean and well kept,bonus drying room.Plenty of walking places and local pubs for eating.On the downside is the 1o,clock entrance leaving little time to get set up in winter plus the queues on the main road
Excellent location
Usual high standards and cleanliness. Location is great with Hope and Castleton within a mile either way (with a plentiful supply of pubs too). Can walk to Mam Tor easily or cycle to Ladybower / Derwent. Nice touch is the drying room for those rainy days. Just watch out for the queues outside on the road that we experienced as the gates did not open till 1PM.
Superb Location
Had an excellent stay on a fully serviced pitch. Five minutes walk into Castleton village and lots of exploring to do for the keen walker. You can walk up to Treak Cliff Cavern then carry on up the old subsided road only accessible on foot and see how the road has slipped at the foot of Mam Tor (shivering mountain). Then continue a little more to Blue John Cavern. The only gripe about the club site is the 1:00pm arrival time. By the time you have checked in and set up, lunch ends up being in the middle of the afternoon. If arrivals returned to 12:00 I’m sure wardens can stagger lunch to let you on site. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Awesome!
This site seems really busy, I struggled to get a booking. The site is perfectly located for walking etc and other outdoor activities.
Love Castleton site
Recently had our annual October stay.
As per usual lovely clean site.
Wardens are lovely, friendly & helpful.
10 minute walk into the village with plenty of places to eat & drink. Great for walking.
One thing though, after observing, we just don’t understand why people turn up at 12noon when arrival times are 1pm, therefore end up queuing & blocking the drive!
First stay with the club
If the other sites are like Castleton, then I'm going to enjoy staying at them. Castleton was excellent so clean and tidy. The toilets and showers were spotless.
The pitches were ample in size and plenty to choose from. Ideal for a base and getting around the Hope Valley.
I will definitely stay again.
No help when needed
On arrival staff seemed very helpful, there was a long queue but they dealt with it very quickly but on my departure I had a flat battery on my car, I found a member of staff to see if they had any jump leads only to be told use the AA( I am a member) The AA came and sorted the problem but I was late departing and I explained this to the staff. The only time the staff came to see me was when they needed the pitch for a another Caravan. The man said in front of the AA man I could have got the tractor and jump leads to have sorted you. We both looked at each other in shock at this comment, there is either a lack of communication between the staff or the lady was having a bad day. We were very disappointed with the lack of help as most sites we have been on the staff are very helpful.
