 It was me that said it had 15 pitches because I searched for it and that was what the review said. I've just searched again and several other places say it only has 5 tent pitches.
If the owners say there's enough room then I guess they're the ones who know, so I'll shut up now.

EDIT: I've just remembered something that my sister told me, in order to get a certain Caravan Club certificate you have to have a site which only caters to a small number of people. I guess they have that and only advertise a small number of pitches even though they have space for many more.

was describing the Roaches to a mate and we was wondering...is there a rock with big hole through it, or is this just a distant hazy figment of imagination?

There is one big hole that goes down through some rocks, it's known as the 'chimney' I think.. don't know if that's the one your friend is on about?

I've put a few pics on the events page, taken when we were there in June. http://www.bikermatch.co.uk/sites/bm/events/event_photo...ent_id=954 I don't have any of the campsite, but I'm sure if you google the address, you can find some. This isn't just about the rocks and climbing, if that's not your thing, there's the pubs and Tittesworth Res and Leek town. Also Matlock Bath is only about 15miles away if you want a ride out. Should be a good weekend! :o))

I just realised that it's only about 15 minutes from the Cat & Fiddle, so worth a look for those that have never been. Remember that it's the "most dangerous road in the country" though.
Not sure if they sell ice-cream though, I'll have to check.

Hahaha...you kidding yamahama! Max ride I done so far is 30 miles. Nope you can't get out of your duties that easy....I still lay claim to some of the miles in your tank so I'm afraid you are stuck with me on the cat & fiddle. But I will buy you a 99
