Hi everyone
Well, we had a lovely 3 days in the Peak District :)
We hired an old Hymer to see if we liked it.....thinking of buying one....and yes, we loved it !!
Our first night was spent at Laneside in Hope, it was a pleasant enough site but even though there were lots of spare pitches we were placed onto what looked and felt like a gravel car park. Not pretty but we knew we'd only be there one night and we were tired after a day's driving.
The best thing about Laneside was the fact you can walk to the little village in a few minutes and there's a big pub with cafe attached and they did good pub grub and next morning we went back for a big breakfast. There's another couple of pubs, a cafe and a fairly big convenience store there, but not much else.
Our 2nd and 3rd nights were spent at Greenhills in Bakewell and what a difference !! A truly beautiful site, spotlessly clean and everything so well maintained. The lovely girl on reception, Amy, was charming and even let us wander around to choose the best pitch. This meant we had loads of space and a lovely view.
Greenhills is a 25min walk into Bakewell - a lovely town to visit with lots of shops to potter around in and great pubs (the Peacock was our favourite) but you can also do a riverside walk into Bakewell which takes an hour but was well worth it. One of the fields we crossed had Llamas in it, that have the dog quite a surprise!
You can also walk to the smaller town of Ashford in the Water, that took about 10mins and it had a pub, cafe, small shop. We had a delicious cooked breakfast in the little cafe, very nice indeed
Now our search starts for a Hyner....we are looking to find a 1990-1995'ish model B534 (rear u-shaped lounge) but we are in no rush so we'll be hanging on to find one that's just right !
Kind regards
J
