Reviewer: DJMotorhomer 48 reviews from this member

 Excellent site and friendly staff. Nice walk to Chatsworth House even though it was teeming down.

Our pitch No: 52 faces the deer park and the river. Toilet block etc spotlessly clean.

All in all 9/10. Well set out but avoid the trees if its raining for the pitter pat on the roof. Ducks patrol the site and abundant birds too.

Chatsworth house is about a 20 min walk through lovely countryside.

 Just returned from our first visit to Chatsworth. Have to say weather was not good but what do you expect in January! The site itself is lovely you wouldn't expect anything else from a cc site. Wardens were very friendly and helpful. The dog walk is small,adequate for a quick morning/evening toilet break but with a gate to chats worth who cares! We drove into Baslow as it was pouring down but it is easily walkable. The 'supermarket' is more a village shop so get your groceries before you go. The pub was fab real ale and allowed the dogs to which is unusual.

All in all a fab weekend. As for Chatsworth the grounds are great wouldn't visit in the summer as imagine it to be very busy but out of season it was great.

 We have just returned from a highly enjoyable stay at Chatsworth and can only praise the site and its staff.

Location is very convenient for both Baslow village and, of course, Chatsworth House and Park. Walks were available direct from the site which is what we prefer. This varied from woods to moor, and villages to valleys. Cycling is not permitted on Chatsworth Park which is understandable from safety point of view due to gradients.

The facilities were extremely high quality, as good we have seen on any site, and well maintained and presented. This included Wifi which was very easy to use even for myself, so well done CC. The only, possible, problem may be the actual capacity of the facilities to cope with large numbers in summer peak but this was not a problem in January.

All in all a first class site to which we will most certainly be returning. Well Done!

 Usual high standard that you expect of the Caravan Club. Wardens friendly and helpful, location great, facilities very good but pitches a bit on the tight side.

Only problem for us was arriving in the dark, the pitches are not easy to see and it was very, very hard to work out what was an available pitch and what was a random bit of land. We drove round the poorly lit site 4 times! I appreciate that the low level lighting is to keep the site from seeming to holiday park and not to be a blot on the Chatsworth landscape but being brutally honest, I felt the lighting to be very poor to borderline perilous! It was hard to find my way back to reception to inform them of the pitch we had (finally) found.

Would I stay there again? I doubt it as I am not keen on going to the toilet block in the dark and opening my door into the pitch of the van sandwiched next to me.

 Toilets not as good as used to be, maybe lack of staff at that time. Boise seems to be going downhill if you ask me. Friendly wardens.There are quieter sites but location is wonderful, Bakewell, Baslow all nearby. Pubs in Baslow hit and miss when open, last orders new years eve 11pm. Devonshire Arms spot on staff great serving til late new years eve.

 We stayed here from Boxing day until after New year.

When we arrived there were water problems, most of the taps were frozen because of the adverse weather conditions but everyone managed, getting water from the wash up area. The wardens worked very hard to cope with all that was thrown at them.

When things started to thaw it left the paths and walk ways very dirty and some waterlogged but this was unavoidable.

The site has the usual good cc facilities, nice, warm and clean.

The site has a small dog walk, with bins.

There is access to the estate through a gate, it's about 15 to 20 mins walk from here to Baslow, (very muddy paths due to weather) where there is a shop, pubs and there are regular buses to Bakewell, Buxton and Matlock.

We walked to Bakewell from the site across the fields, it took about an hour and a half, but we did take a wrong turn, then caught the bus back.

The site is centrally located for touring Derbyshire.

I would visit the site again but only in better weather.

 Plus points - The site itself is set in an idyllic location, right on the edge of the estate, within easy walking distance of both Baslow and Chatsworth House. The site is well laid out and sheltered. An excellent base for three reasons. Not to be recommended for winter however.

Negative points - The 1 mile length dedicated access road is not gritted or cleared. We were unable to leave the site on our designated departure date because of this problem. The warden, although pleasant, seemed ineffectual in solving the problem.

The amenities block is powered by electric pumps and without this the water flow ceases to both toilets and water supply.

Reviewer: Skisalsa 3 reviews from this member

 The setting could not be better, in a beatiful walled garden with a good choice of pitches. Quite cramped with units fairly close together. Very clean facilities.

Lovely dog walk in Chatsworth park, just iddyllic with gorgeous views and Chatsworth's gorgeous gardens to explore right through the gate in the wall.

Customer service very good indeed. I lost the cap to my water tank. It actually bounced out into a hedge on the driveway where it was found by a member of staff after I had rung to see if it was left on site. Lucky for me that she cycled home and spotted it there.

Shop sells a few essentials but the local village store in Baslow also has basics.

 We booked 5 nights here, and despite the bad weather, we would have stayed longer if possible.

The site itself is well laid out and the facilities were probably the best we have seen, looking as though they have been newly renovated.

A great base for visiting Bakewell, Matlock, and the many other gorgeous little villages round and about.Chesterfield is not too far, and has many pubs,places to eat, and shops.

If you want to stay close by there are some beautiful walks within the grounds, and a trip to the house is a must. Dont forget to take your receipt from your CC payment, as you get a discount into Chatsworth.

I would recommend this site, and we will be returning there soon.

 Just returned from spending a lovely weekend at this site. The facilities are wonderfully clean and we didn't have to queue for the showers even though the site was full. The pot holes have been filled in (thankyou). Very friendly staff made us very welcome.

There is a dog walk on site and plenty of bins for your doggie waste.

There are lovely walks and Chatsworth House and grounds is definitely worth a visit.

Baslow is a pleasant little village and is about a twenty minute walk from the site.

We will definitely return to this wonderful site.
