Thanks, we love it. We chopped in a 14ft lightweight for it

This site is lovely, it's spread over several levels so the higher you go the further you see. Didn't know at the time of booking but it's a no tent site, which is unusual, and very quiet.

That's good, what's it called.
I find a some people with tents, don't respect other people property and tend to like playing bloody football or other ball related games, some caravans dent quite easy and once you have a dent, that's it. A tent don't dent.
We tend to use caravan club sites as nearly all are no tents and members only, My caravan cost a lot of money, so I want to keep it in tip top condition

Caravaners don't play football? My tent cost me 600 quid and I wouldn't appreciate football's been kicked at it either

The site is called Lickpenny Park and up the road from Matlock. Check out their website.
We will definitely use this site again.
There's also plenty of field space to kick football's around. We just use penny floaters, but if the wind is keen they blow away!

Yes they do play football, but tend to use the play area, caravan club sites are normally well run and the majority keep to the rules, or get a talking to from the wardens.

Not saying all caravaners are saints, as is the same with campers, but we have been to sites where A holes think it's OK to kick balls and through frizbees around near vans and cars. I want to go away and chill, not worry about my van or car being damaged, same as with you and your tent.

Thanks Elty. Just back from both of the lanes you suggested. Really enjoyed it. Filmed it all on gopro and dash cam so I'll edit it up and let you all see it.
Also filmed driving around the campsite so I'll put that up too. Cheers again.
Ian.
