Any recommendations for a site for a 1st timer to try out for a weekend. 2 adults, 2 children (7 & 4).

Site in Buxton/Ashbourne area, ideally with kids play area. EHU needed as we want to try all equipment out.

Thanks in advance.

Shouldn't really recommend this for 3 reasons,

1) about 30 miles from Buxton and Ashbourne

2) you may not be that far away as you are from Derbyshire

3) If its your first time camping it will spoil you for any other campsite

Having made the reservations I will still say look at the Camping and Caravan Club site at Teversal (wish I could do links it would make it so much easier). The best shower blocks you will ever come across (hence comment 3) but as you are first time campers a bit of luxury does no harm. Just dont expect to get the same standard anywhere else.

If you are not C&CC members it may seem expensive but it will show you the standards that you should judge other sites by (and then realise why it is worth paying the extra).

Wherever you go, hope you have a great time for your first outing whatever the weather. Have fun!
