Buxton Caravan Club Site


This beautiful 150 van site is set in an old quarry on the edge of Buxton Country Park and a few miles from the Derbyshire Spa Town of Buxton.I had half a day’s holiday so that we could get away a bit earlier, and got home around 11:30 am. Maddy had the day off so she had already packed the car. We called in at Heanor for a tray of chips for lunch on the way to the caravan and were finally on the road by 1:30 pm and arrived at the site around 2:30 pm.
The heavens opened as we arrived so we had to wait for the rain to subside before erecting the awning. After a nice cuppa we had a walk into Buxton Country Park and up to Solomon’s Tower on top of Grin Low. We climbed to the top of the tower and enjoyed lovely views of Buxton and the surrounding area. When we got back I tuned in the TV and the reception was pretty awful, so we bought a TV cable to allow us to plug into the site TV system on the Electric Hook Up point. Then it was Pizza and salad for tea and a night of cider and TV.
