Farditch Farm

A aimé : Very nice and clean facilities (showers, toilets, kitchen, lounge), although they may be too small when the site is full.
Great location in the Peak District, several walks can be made from the site. Good pub in walking distance (20 minutes, partly uphill).

N'a pas aimé: The site is literally next to a busy and noisy road.
A lot of the site looks like a parking lot, with a lot of tarmac. We probably had the nicest spot (no. 17, only for small campervans) (that's also the sight seen in the campsite's picture), right next to a field and with a beautiful view of Chelmerton - you just have to ignore the noise from the road right in your back.

A aimé : Pitch offering and the facilities including the enclosed dog field. All clean and tidy. Self check in and out so did not see any staff.

N'a pas aimé: No onsite shop or local shop but aware of this before booking so our choice but would make this place even better!

A aimé : Absolutely great site in the lovely Peak District. The site is immaculately kept and the staff professional, friendly and helpful. I actually commented to a member of staff that we thought the innovative communal living room area and kitchen was a great idea (we used this both days). We loved the 24 hour nature of the facilities and the fact that on day two we could vacate the pitch then simply move my campervan, go out for a day of cycling and use the facilities after - brilliant. Will definitely be back.

N'a pas aimé: Not exactly a dislike, but the hardstanding material I found almost impenetrable with rock pegs and drill when securing the awning down - very unusual. Next time I will take a wider section of rock pegs and try to hammer in. This certainly would not put me off, may help you first time around.

A aimé : The toilets, showers and communal areas were spotless and had everything needed.
Lovely walks from the site.
WiFi could cut out but would take a second to reconnect.

N'a pas aimé: The noise from the road (we read about this before but didn't realise just how noisy and how close to the busy main road we'd be). We chose a hard standing pitch but there was no grass around and we felt like we were staying in a carpark. The site is surrounded by fields so not sure why whoever designed the place decided to cram the pitches into a concrete space. Just lacked atmosphere.

Réponse du gestionnaire : Thankyou for your review. We are glad you liked the facilities and also the local walks. We are sorry you felt the site lacked atmosphere. We have the lack of grass as we can be very unfortunate with the weather and it can cause issues, although I'm glad to say you we're spoilt with beautiful weather for your stay.

A aimé : Great facilities with superb showers, sinks and toilets with modern lighting. Super kitchen area and lounge with TV.

Read on previous reviews on issues with road noise but I didn’t find this on my stay.

There was some light traffic early evening but nothing to spoil a good night’s sleep for me.

Wi-fi signal was weak (only one bar) but 4G was working so not an issue really. Was probably where I was parked and perhaps my phone.

It’s not the biggest site but that’s part of its charm and there are holiday cottages to rent in the grounds.

The grounds are very nice and it’s a lovely location with great views and just a ten minute drive into Buxton.

It’s obvious the owners take real pride in this site which is reflected in its upkeep and the cleanliness of its facilities.

I’ll certainly be staying again at some point in the future.

N'a pas aimé: Nothing to dislike, loved the place.
