Primitive grass campsite
Liked: Great location for walks!! We walked from the campsite to the summit of Mam Tor in 40 minutes. Also a lovely circular along the great ridge and back through Hope/Castleton along the limestone way. Open field for campers, no allocated pitches but plenty of room between tents. BBQs and Firepits allowed and bricks provided to keep off the grass. Shower hot and £1 for 3 minutes. Toilets basic but absolutely fine, 3 sinks and mirrors with plugs for hairdryers etc. 2 washing up sinks with hot water. Drinking water tap. The Fridge freezer very useful for storing chilled items (and beer!). We'll definitely stay again!!

Liked: Nice field/farm set up, beautiful location a short walk from Winnats Pass. The loos are ready for a revamp though and there was only one shower for the ladies.

Liked: Good, warm shower - just remember to bring a light source, and be ready once your £1 coin is accepted to start your 3 minutes!
Disliked: Reasonably busy on a sunny bank holiday weekend, but we still found a quiet, level pitch without issue.
