Ideal location for visiting Ashbourne and the Peak District

Needed a campsite near to Ashbourne and within a few miles of rail station. This site was ideal. It was a 20 minutes drive into Ashbourne and 16 minutes to Belper rail station, where we were able to collect a family member travelling up from London. We happened to pick the worst weekend for weather and we were delayed by the heavy snow. The staff were extremely helpful and communicated the best route on the morning of travel. There was a small shop on site and bottled gas readily available. Our slightly sloping hard standing pitch drained the torrential rain well and we were blessed with a water supply direct to the caravan. Only given 4 stars for the toilets and cleanliness, this was because the toilet blocks were mid way through refurbishment and we chose a particularly muddy weekend, to be fair we were informed about the toilets well in advance. I would fully recommend this site and intend to revisit. The refurbishment looks as though it will be splendid.
A very good find

We were due to stay at a different campsite for another night, but as our peace was shattered by a couple turning up with four different breeds of dog we decided to move! This campsite in comparison was lovely and quiet. We didn't get to see it in it's best light as it was raining for much of our stay, but we were met with a welcoming smile by the chap on reception. We were allowed to choose our location and on the grass field overlooking woodland was just perfect. The facilities were clean and warm, the shower had lots of hot water and an excellent flow. We will put this one in our notes to revisit next year. All in all a great find and we will return!
A great place out in the sticks

It's great if you want peace and quiet out in the sticks place. It has a small shop on site and you can rent out the fire pits. The shower and toilet blocks could do with some TLC.
Lovely place

We took grandchildren for mini 2 day break. They loved it. Grandson loved the little lake for fishing. Very relaxed feel and not overcrowded. Pubs and shops a short drive away. A community fridge freezer would be an excellent addition for us novice campers. Security was excellent.

Great service, very friendly. Large site with good-sized pitches. It's quite a large site and doesn't have many toilet/shower facilities. Would be great if they had more. 👍
Great customer service

Great staff, very helpful and always around if you needed something. Safe and secure site, in a good location. Fishing lake is a nice addition. Nice views from the pitch. Could possibly do with a bigger toilet and shower block as only has 2 showers, but the blocks were always clean and tidy. Would return!
Great stay

Very nice place to stay. Everyone was very friendly and fairly good value for money although need to drive to get to national park. Shop has good range of supplies and the fishing lake is a nice touch. Overall recommended.

Loved the site and the area. The one thing that was a drawback was the pod was a bit far from the facilities. This is a personal thing, as my other half did not have a problem. That said, it was only a problem at night. But I would recommend it to all.
Perfect

Fantastic site and owners, was first time camping for my son and I, and the lovely family helped us when we didn't know how to connect hook-up properly. The lady, Danni, went above and beyond too making my stay even more enjoyable. There's lots to see, with ducks, ducklings and a goose. Glamping pods, tents and caravans. They have caravans with their own gardens which look lovely too. We were in a large field in our tent and plenty of room to play games too. Felt safe and secure on site with a barrier to stop anyone wandering in and cameras in site. Lovely, clean toilet and shower blocks and washing up facilities and a shop on site. I struggle with health difficulties but were close to all facilities and made such a difference to our stay, with everything we needed. The family owned site is so friendly and will definitely go back again. I have recommended them to a friend to go there with their caravan as looking for a local place too. Thank you so much.
Was a nice little site

We had a really nice time during our stay here. It was the perfect size site for us with space for about 20 tent pitches (maybe more). Not too busy or big. It rained a fair bit, but the fields drained well and didn't get boggy. Location wise, my only complaint is that we seemed to be under a flight path which did wake us up a few times. Obviously nothing can be done about that but it's worth mentioning. The shower and washing up block could do with an update, but we're perfectly clean and functional. The staff were really friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend the site. If we were to visit the area again I would book a pitch here.
Great for our short stay

Had a really nice 3 night stay at this park. A warm welcome from the owners and a well stocked shop. The site pitches were large and kept clean and tidy, with easy access to electric and water point. Washing up area and shower/toilet facilities were cleaned regularly and well stocked for the most part. This block is a distance from some pitches so best bring a portable loo if you're prone to getting up in the night (we forgot ours on this occasion unfortunately).
Excellent

Lovely site with large pitches and helpful, friendly staff. Only criticism was the toilet block - didn't think there were enough toilets and showers at busy times.

Lovely little place that is very friendly. On arrival, we were greeted and given all the details of how to let ourselves on to the site if we went out. Also given a print out of nearby walks. There is a little shop on site selling all manner of goods and the toilets are situated so that wherever you camp you are fairly near. There is a lovely trio of ponds that you can fish from and we were delighted to see little glamping pods situated around the site too. This site is extremely good value for money for EHU and washroom and bathroom facilities. The bathroom and washing up facilities were basic but very clean, showers were really hot and powerful. The site offers a fire pit hire with logs at a very reasonable price and they sold giant marshmallows to toast too! A very lovely place, friendly staff and gorgeous scenery 😍 Sadly, the weather on our last day was abysmal and we felt for the staff as their newly seeded field was a bit of a quagmire after we left due to torrential rain, but they cannot be responsible for the weather. It will definitely be a place we will revisit when the weather gets warmer.
