What Visitors to Our Site Thought…

“Just spent 1 night at this camp site but would definitely return. Lots of space to camp, a few different fields, were asked on booking in if we wanted a quiet pitch and directed us to best field for peace.”

“Just spent 2 night in a tent with electric hook up at the bull in the thorn and we will visit again…but maybe not spring time as it is a very open field on top of a hill so very windy! The field was very big but there only seemed to be 4 hook ups in this tent field. There was also a toilet block which was basic but clean and well stocked. Joined onto the pub were 2 bathrooms available to campers which had a shower, toilet and sink in each. These looked fairly new and again were clean. The caravan field was on the other side of the pub.”

“This is an excellent site. It is located within 20 minutes walking distance of the lovely town of Buxton, with its many shops, theatre, cracking pavilion and impressive gardens. There is a wealth of places to eat and drink. It’s also worth visiting Poole’s Cavern and Solomon’s Temple, both with in close walking distance of the site.”
