Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesAug 2024

We stayed for one night over the bank holiday weekend. The owners (including their very cute dog) were extremely friendly and chatty. They came around with bin bags and gave lots of recommendations on things to do and places to eat. The portaloo was always very clean and stacked with toilet rolls and hand sanitiser. Good location between Bakewell and Matlock Bath. Overall a great experience.

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Campervan PitchesAug 2024

A back-to-basics campsite just outside Darley Dale, near Matlock. No showers or electricity. Portaloo was very clean and friendly owners were on site twice a day to check everything was ok. We loved our night here and will definitely use again when we are in the area.
