Reviewer: Dawn6405 2 reviews from this member

 Just got back from our first visit to this site, what can I say it was amazing! We were well impressed with this beautiful site. We had a choice of a pitch near the play area or with a view, we chose the view and wasn't disappointed. We had a fantastic view of Riber castle and the surrounding area. The pitches are all hard standing, There are plenty of fresh water, toilet disposal and bin points scattered around the site which were emptied regularly. The toilet and showers blocks were heated and were always exceptionally clean with plenty of hot water

there is a good sized children's park / plenty of dog walks

I would recommend anyone to stay here We cannot wait to come back, it is a wonderful site

 One word-amazing! We have just returned from a 2 night stay and I have to say how impressed we were with this beautiful site. Upon arrival we were made to feel very welcome and given a run down of the facilities and where these were on a handy little site map. The park itself is gated with a security code which made us feel extra safe. The pitches are hard standing and rock pegs were available to buy in the small shop which stocks basic rations - hot drinks papers to order and snacks. The pitch itself felt enormous, there was loads of space which is so much better than some parks which leave you feeling crammed in. We had a gorgeous view of the former riber castle. There are plenty of fresh water, toilet disposal and bin points which were emptied regularly. The toilets and showers were fab, (2 blocks for the whole site) hot water on tap and all included in the price. There are pot washing areas with an added bonus of a microwave which we will take advantage of on our next stay. There are laundry facilities and a disabled toilet. If you have children there are some lovely grassy areas along with a park to play on and if like us you have a furbaby there is a lovely little dog walking area. A 5 minute walk around the corner from the site is Scotland garden centre which has a restaurant, gift shop and farm shop. I can recommend the homemade scones!

If suggestions were taken on board the only point I would make is that it would be nice to have a fridge selection in the shop which could sell sandwiches/pastries etc.

We cannot wait to come back for another stay, thank you to all the staff and congratulations on your wonderful site!

 Just returned from 3 nights on this site. I cannot speak highly enough of this place. The view from our caravan was spectacular to say the least. It is so clean. The pitches are very private. The staff are so helpful and friendly. There was a rally on during our stay but we were not disturbed at all. The facilities are exceptionally clean and the shower blocks heated. I would recommend anyone to stay here, it is a wonderful setting. We don't have children but the children's play area is well taken care off and looked clean. The dog was very welcome too. Will definitely be going back for Matlock Bath Illuminations in September.

There are plenty of water/waste/recycling points etc scattered around the site, wherever you are you don't have to go far for water etc.

 Fantastic site with all hard standing. When we booked we asked for a sunny pitch with a view and was not disappointed. Shower blocks were very clean and warm. We arrived early and after checking in was taken around the site by the warden in his buggy to show us our pitch and point us to where we could park up till it became vacant. Great position to explore southern peak district. Very helpful staff ! Go armed with rock pegs for awning !

Reviewer: Mrskeating 17 reviews from this member

 We've always fancied this site, as its local to us, and we love the area. We recently bought a caravan after camping for many years & couldn't wait to book a pitch here.

We weren't disappointed, the site is well run, clean and welcoming.

We found the facilities to be clean and well maintained, my only gripe (sorry) is the showers, although hot and clean, I despise the push button, I know lots of sites use them, but I personally would pay extra not to have to push every 6 seconds.

We walked to the garden centres very close by, but unfortunately didn't manage to get a meal in any of the pubs near Lickpenny, you do need to book in advance (bear that in mind)

We would most definitely book again at Lickpenny, as we can be here & set up before tea on a Friday night. Perfect

 We have just spent our honeymoon at Lickpenny. What a fantastic site. It's very clean and well maintained. We went for a deluxe pitch and it was well worth it, constantly having running water is brilliant, the same as not having to empty the grey water container all the time. Certainly plenty to do around the Derbyshire area too.

Planning a return visit next year as we enjoyed it so much.

Reviewer: Sandra McCarthy 2 reviews from this member

 We had the most awful weather at Lickpenny - wet and very windy but it didn't detract from the fact that this is a very nice site. The pitches are spacious and laid out in such a way that you feel very private. The facilities are well kept and clean, if a little bit of a hike from our particular pitch and the views are gorgeous. At least they were before they became shrouded in mist! We did manage a visit to The Heights of Abraham in a break in the rain and this was very enjoyable.

Everyone st Lickpenny was helpful and friendly and we would definitely like to go back - perhaps to enjoy some sunshine!

Reviewer: Ukbandit 2 reviews from this member

 Just got back from this site, I can say it's easily on par with any caravan club site. Toilets are heated and clean. The site is very picturesque, with pitches on different levels, giving lovely views over the Peak District. The staff are very friendly and informative.

The only criticism I can give this site is the WiFi access. The Internet was also very slow, far quicker on 3G. It is the most expensive Internet access I have ever purchased

Reviewer: Steveramsdale 3 reviews from this member

 This is a lovely site. We've just had our second visit and it is such a beautiful and peaceful site. The facilities are excellent - kept very clean and tidy. Everyone is friendly. There are good facilities for children. Each pitch is a very generous size and allows for a quiet break. We'll definitely be back.

Reviewer: Subry 7 reviews from this member

 Stayed here for a long weekend over the half term break in October. Booking over the telephone was really easy, and the girl taking the booking very pleasant. She described the layout of the site and the pitches available, and asked what was important to us. When we arrived on site the pitch was perfect, she had got it just right. The view from the van was the best we have ever had on a site. Site facilities were very good, and were always lovely and warm, there was a problem with the toilets blocking up one evening, and they had to be closed, but the disabled toilet was opened up and the main toilets were fixed really quickly. Plenty to do nearby, Heights of Abraham is fantastic. Would definitely go again.
