Planning on moseying on down to the Peak District for trails, historic estates and rural landscapes? From the Racecourse Retreat four miles from the edge of the national park, you’ll be in for a restful retreat with delicious views and green surroundings. This quiet, rural and family-friendly smallholding is just 15 minutes’ drive away from buzzy towns such as Matlock and 35 minutes from royal sites like Chatsworth House. It is a fairly simple setup here, with spacious pitches that have access to showers and toilets, plus firepit areas for a feelgood gathering, waste and recycling points, a dishwashing station and drinking water. This area is walking and biking trails galore, beginning with the High Peak Trail around five minutes’ drive away. At the same time, tourist hotspots such as Carsington Water, Cromford Mills and Matlock Bath are within 15 minutes’ drive of the site. Just above the town of Wirksworth and the small village of Cromford, there are shops, pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways a short walk away so that guests can grab all the goods they desire for an easy off-grid stay. And in the opposite direction, Belper (15 minutes’ drive) and then Ashbourne (20 minutes’ drive) are some more lively calls with eateries and the likes – or there's a bigger city break to Derby 35 minutes’ drive away in case that’s your next plan of action.

Parcel·la de gespa amb electricitat per a tenda de campanya o per a remolc tenda

Em va agradar: This was our second year of staying at The Racecourse Retreat again it was for bank holiday weekend. We visited with our family members and their children and they absolutely loved it as much as we do. The staff are friendly and helpful always up for a chat. Over the weekend they had a number of events on for adults and children such as a live band and a film afternoon for the kids. The new shower block is such a benefit to the site i would say they could do with another 2 of them to accommodate all 3 fields for when its busy but we didn't encounter any issues, the ladies only toilet is such a lovely touch always clean and smelt nice. We'll be back next year !

Parcel·la de gespa sense electricitat per a tenda de campanya o per a remolc tenda

Em va agradar: Food options being available on site ie pizza van, burgers etc. Friendly staff. Clean toilets and showers.

No em va agradar: When we initially set up there were 2 boys (later realised were staff) going up and down the back farm behind the tents on a quad then motor bike revving it near the cows and scaring our dog as it was loud. We also weren’t aware of the music till late or that this was even on offer when booking through pitch up (shame this is isn’t clearer- depends what you’re after). I appreciate what the campsite was trying to do offering entertainment and the female singer was good but we had been given welcome info when we arrived which stated this would be on and by 11pm it was quiet time which is quite reasonable but it didn’t stop at 11pm and went on with another band starting again (it was very loud) if you were camped far away from the bar area/ band marquee you couldn’t get away from the noise. This was a bit of shame as we did want some sort of camping serenity. The only other downfall was the toilets and showers it was quite a big and busy campsite and they had 4 main toilets then showers attached behind with another 3 toilets and showers. Needed at least another toilet block/ showers in the main areas as there was always a queue. The only other one was at the bottom of a big hill at the campsite where you checked in and this was a big walk from the main tent pitches- also only open between 7am- 7pm. This would be a lovely campsite if the basic bits were looked at - more toilet facilities, calmer environment (even the second night which was a movie night they had put on in the marquee was really loud if you just wanted peace) and maybe a little shop for essentials rather than focusing on bands and bar.

Em va agradar: The facilities were clean most of the time and the pitch was very spacious. The woman who checked us in was lovely !

No em va agradar: The atmosphere in the bar was odd and the people working in there made it awkward by staring at customers from the corner. The beer prices are high so definitely recommend drinking your own stuff. The music can be heard from the other end of the field so don’t be expecting to talk to your friends when it’s playing!

Em va agradar: We were lucky to stay during bank holidays and we loved the live band. My kids really enjoyed playing in the sandpit and the views were absolutely stunning.

No em va agradar: Showers. Facilities were exceptionally clean but only one shower can be used at a time. After I covered my hair and body with soap there was no water coming in anymore as the other was in use and had to use the sink to wash it all off.

Em va agradar: Everything was great. Even though there were lots of campers over the bank holiday weekend, there was plenty of room between pitches. The scenery was beautiful. I was very impressed with the facilities, there were 3 unisex and 1 ladies toilet aswell as 3 shower rooms which also had toilets in. They were clean every time I used them. A nice added extra was the kids movie on Sunday afternoon. I will definitely be booking to go again.

Llocs d'interès

Where to wander first? A climb to the Black Rocks (five minutes’ drive) for views over the countryside? A little stroll around Bakewell (half an hour), over its medieval bridge, perhaps to pick up a Bakewell pudding for the riverbank? The mills and canal at Cromford Mills (10 minutes)? Or onto the Tissington Trail (20 minutes) for the Derbyshire Dales, a limestone ravine and stepping stones? In Matlock (10 minutes), you’ll have the choice of spas and shopping and further out, the Matlock Farm Park (25 minutes) for an afternoon of full-on animal activities such as horse riding. There’s a farmyard with animals at Chatsworth House (35 minutes) too, but this grand place is packed full with much more to do, from playgrounds to house tours and pretty picnics in the gardens. The same kind of vibe goes at Haddon Hall (35 minutes), a medieval hall and park with tours. After some water-based action too? Carsington Water (15 minutes) is your guy, thanks to its watersports centre running rowing, canoeing, windsurfing and kayaking. And on dry land, there's cycling, walking and fishing to get your senses tingling.
