This working farm campsite in the Peak District offers a spacious, rural setting with stunning valley views and a peaceful atmosphere. Guests consistently highlight the exceptional cleanliness of the toilets, showers, and dishwashing station, which are well-stocked with essentials like soap and toilet paper. The friendly and helpful staff drive around daily to offer fire pits for hire and check on campers, contributing to a welcoming vibe. Farm animals such as highland cows, alpacas, goats, sheep, and llamas delight families and children, while the 'pick your own pitch' policy allows guests to choose level, spacious spots on a grassy field. The location provides easy access to walking trails, the Monsal Trail, and nearby villages like Bakewell and Buxton, with a pub and cafe within walking distance. Quiet hours from 10pm to 7am ensure tranquility, though occasional road noise from a main road may be noticeable on still nights. On-site amenities include a cabin with charging points, a full-length mirror, and a fridge freezer for guest use. Free hot showers are appreciated, but some reviewers note variable water pressure and temperature, as well as push-button controls and occasional queues during peak times. The campsite is family-friendly and dog-friendly, with ample space for children to play. Mobile signal and WiFi are limited, which some guests view as a positive for a digital detox. Minor criticisms include the cost of fire pit hire, limited hot water taps at the washing-up area, and busy weekends. Overall, guests describe it as a wonderful, family-friendly site they would recommend and revisit, combining natural charm with essential amenities for an enjoyable stay.
