 This is a beautiful site. The wardens on site were great very friendly and helpful.
Views from the site are fantastic and the wardens even let you face your caravan the other way to take in the great views.
The toilet/washrooms are exceptionally clean with lovely hot free showers always a bonus! A massive thumbs up to the wardens for their hard work.
Dogs are also made very welcome and there is even a dog area for your faithful friend to wander around and have a run.
We will certainly return here in the near future and next time a longer stay is on the definitely on the cards.
THANK YOU.

Sadly we were disappointed as the website mentioned peace, tranquillity and more. On arrival, staff were very friendly and showed us to our pitch. The site was tidy and clean. Toilet facilities were modern and clean but unfortunately not adequate for the large amount of campers that turned up plus broken toilet seats in the ladies, having to queue for 20 minutes for a ladies loo is not on. The site quickly took on the appearance of a commercially minded campsite. The rules of the site were ignored by many. The power tripped off twice on Saturday evening, no apparent reason. It was not the peaceful and tranquil break that we thought we had booked.

Read the reviews, they were not wrong, the site very well set out, pitches fully serviced, hence the price, but well worth it. Showers are 5 star. Plenty of room for kids to play. Pub 1ml down rd on left great food. Also back in hartington 2 pubs both serving food. We didn't try any of these but they were both recommended, we will try on our next visit which will be November this year. This was our first visit to this site on my arrival the wardens were waiting booking was in was very easy, and the lady walked me round the site so I could choose my own spot. Everything was spotless. There are some shops in hartington and a shop down near the at hulm. They have shetland ponies and alpacas. Matlock buxton all within a short drive. The road in is narrow but easy to negotiate just take it easy there are pull ins just in case. If you are into walking the tissington trail is on the door step as are other walks. The site is nice and quiet, not well lit but you can manage even without a torch. The owner and wardens we found to be very helpful and easy going nothing to much trouble. Looking forward to November pie and peas.

A lovely site however in our instance our stay was spoilt by noisy children and barking dogs. The site is quite small and therefore difficult to get any peace and quiet from large groups of children with dogs and bikes.
In the advert for the site it says something about enjoying the peace of the countryside, not in July or August!
On the positive the site is immaculate with the best washrooms I have come across on a campsite. The views are magnificent and electric hook up is available for most pitches. It is however expensive as well.
I would use again but not in the main season.

Just returned from our second visit to this lovely site in the Peak District National Park.
The site was extremely well looked after as usual with excellent toilet and shower facilities.
The weather could have been better but hey it's England, but the last few days made up for the very wet days.
Everyone is made very welcome and the wardens went out of their way to ensure we were sited exactly how we wanted to be.
This site is ideal for anyone wanting a quiet and relaxing holiday.

We have stayed at this lovely campsite before and couldn't wait to return. It is in an excellent location, about a 20 minute walk to the nearest pub and shop at Hulme End. The pub has a very good menu, and the shop is very well stocked.
The site itself is excellent, no frills, just very generous and level pitches, and an excellent amenities block. There is always plenty of hot water, the toilets and showers are immaculate, and warm, and there are good washing up facilities. The views across the countryside are spectacular.
A slightly longer walk, anything from 35 mins to an hour depending on the route, takes you to Hartington, a lovely village with a duck pond, cheese shop, chocolate shop and a couple of very nice pubs serving food, as well as an excellent village store which sold everything we needed.
The wardens were extremely friendly and very helpful - nothing is too much trouble for them.
This is not a campsite for those wanting lots of entertainment, playgrounds etc, but if you want a relaxing time away from it all, this is the place. We have taken children of all ages and they love it too.

Lovely half term stay in a beautiful site. Plenty of space, electric hookups, spotless shower block and rarely any waiting needed. Football pitch and dog walking meadow at the top of the site had the most stunning views. Nearby were plenty of good eating places and shops to cycle/drive to. Loads of info on everything to do and see in the main block too. Peaceful (although child friendly) and welcoming.

This was our second visit having had such a good time previously in a tent we decided to make it our first stop in our new campervan. The newly appointed wardens were very friendly and helpful, the facilities were first class and spotless as ever. Better than some hotels actually. There is no shop on site but a short walk into the village is a shop that sells pretty much anything you'll need. There's also a pub with excellent beer and food. There's a large field for the kids to play in, with goalposts! I'd definitely recommend this site though I'm hoping there'll always be room for us when we want to get away from it all for a weekend.

We have just returned from 6 nights on the site. At the point of booking we had a few issues around our dates and had to amend a couple of times and Sue the owner was very accommodating and couldn't do enough to help us.
Once we arrived the wardens showed us to our pitch, we had to spend a little time getting the levels right as it is on a slight incline, but once levelled no problems! The wardens pointed out to us the grass hadn't been cut but this was not a problem to us as not that long!
The toilet block is beautiful and kept immaculately clean at all times of day. Ample showers/toilets for the size of the site.
Lovely area for walking, and the views very nice too.
I wouldn't recommend the Manifold Inn as others have, as the beer was warm and there were very noisy children when we visited unfortunately. Would definitely recommend the half hour walk though to the Staffordshire Knot though!
The only downside to the site is the fact they allow fire pits and these are allowed at your pitch and unfortunately we were smoked out two nights running, one night the neighbours burning a pit from 4. 30pm until after 10pm. We did pick this up with the site on the last night as couldn't have coped with a third night and whether they had a gentle word or not I am not sure but there wasn't a fire!
I have since contacted Sue the owner and she has come back to me immediately with a response to advise they are going to amend the booking form to make users aware and that they should use the pits with consideration for neighbours and they have reconsidered and now are only allowing fire pits on the field at the main entrance
Would I return?? Without a doubt!
Fantastic owner of a site to respond and address the issue so quickly.

Returned home from visiting upper hurst farm for the first time, what a find upper hurst is, absolutely fab, really nice quiet site in a stunning area
Access too site is good wardens ready too great us when we arrived and show us too our pitch, the pitches are arranged around the perimeter with a few tent pitches in the middle all pitches around the perimeter are hardstanding with a grey waste disposal at rear of pitch with a fresh water tap also there, and 16 amp hook up too boot
The caravan may need a small amount of levelling side too side but nothing too great
As said before the toilet block is second too none under floor heating lovely warm free showers superb !
As having not got children with us I cant comment too much about child facilities but there is no play ground but there is a field !
Dog walk is ace big field too walk round with bins on route
If you like star gazing then this is the place too be there's hardly no light intrusion so the night sky looks brilliant
Sue the owner is very approachable and will always try too help in any way too make stay even better the wardens are out of the same mould could not do more too make stay perfect
All in all I would recommend very much I will certainly return
