 Our second visit to the site and it was as good as I remembered. Facilities were spotless and the wardens friendly.

It's pricier than most CAMC sites but I guess that's because of the location in the grounds of Chatsworth House. Visited the house decked out for Christmas, and then the light trail, so festive!

The site was only around 2/3 full so plenty of pitch choice. Drove our motorhome to Buxton as couldn't find a bus that went direct.

Parked at Pooles Cavern for just £2. About a 20 min walk into town.

 Another lovely 3 nights at Chatsworth. There was a lot of rain this time around, and one thing we noticed was that many of the pitches are under trees, resulting in an endless drip drip drip on the caravan roof even when the rain has stopped.

We were on a blue peg pitch, and luckily we were able to get one without trees overhead, but they were few and far between.

Facilities were the same as usual, and we love the ability to walk in the estate.

We enjoyed a number of lovely walks, which is what makes this site for us.

 Great site within the Chatsworth Estate, you get a key to a door for direct acres to the park.

Some pitches are a bit tight by normal C&M club standards, but facilities are good.

Reasonable walk into Baslow where there are a few pubs and a restaurant. We didn't try them, got a few mixed reviews from other campers to be honest.

We did walk to Bakewell and got a bus back. This was a good day out.

 Finally got away for our first outing of the year to Chatsworth which is one of our favourite sites.

The site was as good as ever and we were fortunate this time to get one of the pitches with plenty of space around it. Some of them have less space to sit outside but the one we had this time was excellent. Facilities all up to the usual high standard and we enjoyed numerous walks on the Chatsworth estate.

Very friendly male warden met us at the entrance and gave us all the required information and sent us to find a pitch. Once set up you return to the reception to pay which is a great idea as it reduces the number of vans queuing to get in.

One thing that we noticed this time that we have never noticed before was the group of extremely noisy crows in the tall trees above the site.

The noise they made from dawn to dusk was unbelievably loud. It might just have been mating season and the noise was part of the process but we have never heard anything quite like it before and hope that they are not always this loud as we love chatsworth and the usual peace and quiet which we go there for was non existent this time around.

 Our first visit to Chatsworth Park, and wasn't disappointed. Friendly welcome from the busy staff who kept the facilities and park area spotless and well tended to.

The shop is one of the best I have seen on a CMC site, with fresh products delivered daily.

Access to Chatsworth Park is pretty exclusive from the site and was our route when walking to Baslow and Bakewell, both places having lovely pubs and in Bakewell a variety of shops.

Visited Chatsworth House, the grounds and gardens are wonderful, the House on the other hand was not to my liking with almost 50% of the rooms becoming a gallery for all types of Modern Art. We wanted to enjoy the historical character and culture, but in many rooms that was hidden away.

If you do go, take a picnic, the prices for refreshments and food were pretty steep. The site was pretty full whilst we were there, but never seemed overly noisy,

The only issue out of control of the Club and the Wardens were the large number of roosting rooks and crows and the noise that they make most of the day! I reckon if you stay long enough you'll get used to them.

Had the pizza on Sunday evening, was very good and well worth the money

 The location of the campsite is great if you plan to visit Chatsworth.

You can walk to the estate through a locked gate. ( key provided)

The campsite is well organised with caring, helpful, friendly staff.

Site is sheltered with well established mature trees.

We didn’t use the washrooms as we tend to only use our own these days.

The pitches are spacious.

We’d go again.

 5 star site but have to say 5 star prices, -£38 per night in high season, we were told on arrival site fully booked but would say less than a third of pitches occupied, plenty of pitch choice.

Loved the access to the park but heavy rain meant the path down to the gate was flooded - you need wellies to get through.

Facilities block immaculate and seemed bigger than on most similar sized CAMC sites.

Blue non awning pitches are a very good size, in some cases no smaller than white awning pitches. The red marker pitches are no bigger but have drain and water. Odd that some of the red marker pitches were being used for car parking.

Shop sells a really good selection of items, they have thought of pretty much everything.

Stunning walks all over the area on well marked paths, great coffee van just outside the house.

Staying on site gets you discounts for entry to the house farm shop etc.

It's very expensive but we enjoyed our stay.

 This site is one of our favourites as you can do as much or as little as you wish.

We managed to book a weekend break at short notice when the Christmas markets were on at the house - lovely atmosphere, especially as it starts to turn dark and the grounds/house are lit up - just remember to take a torch for the walk back !

Facilities are of the usual CAMC standard and the wardens work hard to keep the site clean despite the winter weather.

Will definitely return.

 This campsite is absolutely amazing! Very well run by the friendly welcoming staff.

The shower and toilet blocks are brilliant we couldn’t fault them at all.

They have all very good facilities to hand and they even have a place where you can shower down your dog if it’s dirty.

We had our dog with us and there are so many different walks.

Chatsworth House definitely worth a visit too. We only stayed the two nights but would definitely stay for more next time. It’s such a peaceful place to stay and we had lunch in the Devonshire Inn and the food was lovely.

Definitely worth a stay.

 Perhaps it's because the kids are still at school but this is one of the most peaceful and relaxing we have stayed on. The noisiest thing being the crows.

Good facilities, great wardens, nice flat fully serviced pitch and very lucky to get one with plenty of sunshine and not under any trees.

The key to the magical Kingdom beyond the gate into the Chatsworth Estate makes it that little bit special.

Lots to do in the local area including Bakewell and I can also vouch for the Peaks Ales and Chatsworth Gin.
