JOSEPH W. May 2025

Non-electric grass tent or motorhome pitch

Liked: A lovely quiet and peaceful campsite. Virtually no noise whatsoever after 10pm. Perfect for families and people looking to relax and unwind. Facilities were all good and the fields are nice and clean with no sheep mess or anything. Friendly welcome and no trouble to amend the booking. Close to Bakewell and other nice day trip towns. Basic but clean, friendly and picturesque. Don't come here expecting to be able to play music over a campfire until 2am. But that suited us down to the ground.

Local attractions

Eating as much Bakewell pudding as you like is perfectly acceptable because of the abundance of hiking trails on which to burn off the calories (that’s your excuse and you’re sticking to it). The limestone valley of Lathkill Dale, just outside the site, is a very fine place for a walk and has some excellent birdwatching to be done along the way. Further walks await all over the Peak District National Park for all abilities. The relatively gentle paths of Mam Tor and the Ladybower Reservoir are about 40 minutes’ drive away; keen hikers in search of a challenge should aim for Kinder Scout, 50 minutes’ drive away, to climb up to the highest point in the park. A popular option for families (on foot or by bike) is the Monsal Trail (20 minutes' drive), meandering through nature reserves and underground tunnels to finish near Bakewell (for a restorative pudding perchance?). For a spot of history (or to shelter on a damp day), head to Chatsworth, a splendid estate on the banks of the Derwent river half an hour away.
