Brillant site. So much space and good toilet block though a bit short on the number of gents washbasins. You could have to wait at busy times.
You will need 'bullit' style pegs, it's the hardest pitch I have ever been on. The super pitches are worth the extra for the nice avenue that they are in, but don't expect the advertised view as the trees are now too high.
Would revisit. Tip - learn the unclassified roads alternative means to get into Matlock at peak times, its a nightmare.
The dog loved the place.

Just returned from this superb site , so much to do within an hours drive , Alton Towers, Drayton Manor, American Adventure, etc,
Well laid out, great for dogs ,kids. showers / toilets excellent and also a kids bath, just off the laundry area (great idea).
Very big hardstanding pitches (some fully serviced). Very helpful owners / wardens. Not a huge range in the shop but enough of the bare essentials. Love the area and will definitely return to this site.

This site is superb, the owners could not have been more friendly and helpful. the pitches are huge and the toilet and shower block were spotless, only downside the childrens play area could do with modernising not much for an active 1 1/2 year old.

Lovely site, huge pitches but hardcored and need good steel pegs for awning, available at office for 50p each. Spotless shower blocks. Site owners very helpful. Lovely area, the kids even got Kate on the cable car when she is scared of heights. This site is now in our Top Ten, will definitely visit again.

Absolutley brilliant site. Paid extra for a super pitch and a couple of pounds to stay on the pitch until 6.00pm Sunday - very useful if you are only there for the weekend. The shower and loo block is very clean and modern and there is a free! launderette and washing up room all imaculate. The pitches overlooking the play area are near enough yet far enough (if you see what mean) The children can have a bit of independance but not disturb anyone elseand you are near enough to keep an eye on them. Lots of green grassey places to play ball games. Great dog walk etc. The sun shone and the view from our pitch (8a) was superb. The pitches are huge even the standard ones seem bigger than normal. Loads to do in the area only about 4 miles from Matlock. Great places to eat,walk and cycle. Just a little piece of heaven will definately return.

Our first ever weekend away with a caravan??? Site is pleasantly quite, we were situated by park for our three girls to play on, simple enough but girls really enjoyed it. owners there were really helpful, our electric cable wasnt long enough to reach the plug but they borrowed us an extra long one so no probs there. We also decided to try out our awning for the first time but due to it being hardsanding we had to buy some pegs of them which where £5.00 for 10 (dont know if this was cheap or not) but good on them for having supplies there.Unfortunatly being a very windy weekend we had to take it down anyway after one night so we didnt ruin it. The weather was neither here nor there it really rained heavy one minute and was sunny the next, but the park was not muddy at all, dryed up pretty quickly. went on the cable cars in matlock back which was quite expensive but well worth trying once i spose, takes you to top of hill where there was a cave tour and cafe/restaurant (a bit pricey)and a few other little shops and not forgetting a park. All in all a lovely wet first weekend away.

Stayed last weekend, good site quiet if you needed peace but also play area available for children. Choice of being sited near play areas or more secluded areas when booking.
The playarea was not overly crowded or noisy at any times.
Pitches good size for van,awning and car alongside each other.site well drained.
All hygiene,laundry and food preparation rooms immaculate.
Reception area has a good range of information leaflets and menus for local public houses / restaurants.
Many places to visit locally, within walking distances garden centres,village of Tansley.
Ride into Matlock or other areas of interest in Peak district.
We would definately re-visit this site only being a hours and twenty minutes from South Yorkshire

Agree with previous reviews. This is a very clean, very friendly site. Superb sized pitches, with plenty of privacy. The facilities were always very clean (being March visitors did trample mud into toilets etc, but a mop was always available and they were cleaned several times a day anyway). There are plenty of things to see in the area including the spectacular Chatsworth House. We really enjoyed a very peaceful six day stay.

I have been caravaning now for well over ten years and I can honestly say that this is one of the best sites I have ever had the pleasure of staying on.. just a minutes drive up hill from the centre of Matlock.. the pitches are the biggest and the most private I have been on.
There are plenty of hard standings and drainage is good. There is a good childrens play area and toilet / shower block is well up to standard.
Could do with shop on site. Superb friendly staff. We have already booked to go back this year...9/10 would be 10/10 if shop on site...
