For us this campsite is just 25-30 miles away so it was ideal to test out our new towcar Rivendale lies in the heart of The White Peak. The between the towns of Ashbourne, Buxton and Bakewell, within walking distance of Dove Dale.

The site has 80 touring pitches including all-grass, hard-standing and hard-standing with grass for tents (40 tent pitches), motorhomes, caravans and trailer tents. The camping area are divided into distinct areas separated by rockeries made from huge boulders from the quarry .

Electricity is 16 amp and there are some super pitches available

The stone-shower/toilet building has under-floor central heating, power showers, laundrette, pot-washing facility, disabled persons toilet and showers. Except for the laundry everything is free of charge .

There is an excellent play area for kids although there is nothing for the toddlers to play on there

The old stable buildings have been converted into a shop, with reception and café on the ground floor, with a bar and games room at upstairs.

The site is very proud of it’s two David Bellamy Gold Conservation awards and has a nice nature walk area where loads of wildlife can be seen if you know what to look for
