Peak district surroundings

  • Well-equipped Derbyshire touring site with easy access from the A517
  • A 10-minute drive to Ashbourne and the edge of the Peak District
  • Dog-friendly site a mile from Hulland Ward's village pub and farm shop
Parking up for the Peak District? Take your tourer off to Ashbourne Touring and Camping Park, a well-equipped park in a handy spot just off the A517 a mile from the village of Hulland Ward. Easy access from the main road means it’s nice and straightforward to get set up at this Derbyshire site – and that location also means you’ll be handily close to the village’s pub and farm shop (a useful source of supplies for your barbecue back at base). Bus services from the stop just outside can take you into nearby Ashbourne – or you can drive over there in about 10 minutes. In fact, everything here has been designed to make life nice and easy for guests, with well-kept ample toilet and shower facilities, a chemical disposal area, a washing-up area and a launderette provided. Dogs are welcome to join you on site as long as they're well behaved. The wifi service provided is also likely to come in handy, given that you'll probably want to plan lots of days out around the area. The edge of the Peak District National Park is about 10 minutes' drive away, as is the start of the traffic-free Tissington Trail, so you'll be in a good position for getting out to explore the lovely landscapes. And there are plenty of other attractions around too, including Alton Towers and the Chatsworth estate.

What customers say

This is a very clean, well-maintained, and peaceful campsite with friendly and helpful staff. Visitors consistently praise the spotless facilities, including showers and toilets, and the spacious, level pitches. The site offers good dog walking areas and a children's play area, and its location is convenient for exploring the Peak District and nearby towns like Ashbourne. While some minor issues like Wi-Fi connectivity and occasional wasp presence were noted, the overwhelming feedback is positive, with many guests planning to return.

Electric grass pitch

Liked The pitches are well-maintained, and the owners were incredibly helpful and welcoming throughout our stay, which made a big difference.

The shower block was clean, and we really appreciated having the family room, which was great with a toddler. This made getting ready so much easier!

We highly recommend for a comfortable, clean, and genuinely family-friendly camping experience. We'd happily return!

NEIL FRANK H.

Electric grass pitch

Liked Stayed as a family party of 14 in 4 tent units all located together for convenience.
Location within Peak District for walks etc.
Flat pitches.
Layout & size of pitches.
Campers toilets close to the camping pitches.
Ablution blocks & wash up area, clean & never busy.
Quiet site (campers not aircraft) considering it was quite busy.
Field for kids to run around on.
Dogs must be kept on a lead policy.

Disliked Free wifi was iffy by our tent & couldn't get on it at times but enough data to cover.
Flight path directly above & at certain times it was quite noisy overhead.

Electric grass pitch

Liked One of the best campsites ever, we had 2 pitches between 8 of us, 2 adults and 6 older children and it was the best 2 nights ever. So much space and different places to explore, honestly enjoyed it so much even with the weather being a bit crap!! Even in the rain we walked to the nearby farm shop and found the loveliest of treats. Will DEFINITELY be coming back soon! Only had to rate the wifi low because we couldnt figure it out but im sure we couldve if we looked properly so please ignore that part x
