Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Very clean, lovely maintained fields, not massively bumpy etc. Slight slope but comfortable to deal with. Hire of fire pits. Amenities. Good choice of pitch spaces too. Kids loved playing area.
Disliked: Showers- Was aware of the 20p per minute charge but the payment machines are outside the cubicles, which isnt great when anyone can just walk in, but when the door opens to full view of half the campsite when someone does walk in, doesn't really give any privacy. Then it's not a very powerful shower, more of a trickle so need to buy more time in order to wash properly. Pot wash- signs stating use washing up bowl to not waste water, yet no bowl supplied, not even a plug for the sink and the water was boiling hot so water was wasted cos there was no way to work it when we had not thought to buy a bowl to bring.

From the manager: Hi, Im sorry you experienced problems with the showers and pot washing. The meters in the top block have a minute delay after you have put your money in which gives you time to get in the shower, the bottom block starts straight away but does tell you this, we cant have the meteres in the showers due to the electrics but neither are in full view of the campsite so dont understand your point ? If we didnt have them then people spend so long in the shower they use all the hot water and then people complain as its run out. Pot washing bowls are available to buy in the shop, using them stops the waste of water we do provide plugs but annoying people keep pinching them, and we will check the water temperature, thankyou.

Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Clean toilets Friendly staff Great little onsite shop Good arrival/leaving times Great that the pitch isn't to restricted a size Loved the animals wandering around (even the chicken pinching the food by the tent) Great park for the kids Lovely scenery Close drive to Matlock Bath Handy to have access to a fridge onsite also for those little bits
Disliked: One moaning camper next to us asking us to turn our already quiet music at 3pm...due to her having a headache! 🫣 But no negatives to the actual site itself. WiFi signal kept dipping out.
