A great find for a wild campsite (with toilets!)
Bertie bell tent
Liked Great wild campsite in a beautiful area. It was very quiet when we stayed but probably due to the weather not being great. We stayed in the Bertie Bell tent which was perfect for our needs. Toilets were clean and there’s a sink for washing up etc. Monyash is about a mile away - there’s a good pub serving traditional food - we ate and drank there. Good walks in Lathkill Dale.
Disliked Not a negative but… It’s open to the elements so be prepared.

What customers say
This is a basic, peaceful campsite in a beautiful Peak District location, praised for its stunning views and quiet atmosphere. Reviewers appreciated the spacious field, allowing for flexible pitching and a "wild camping" feel, with many enjoying the option of campfires. Owners are consistently described as friendly and helpful. Facilities, including portaloos and a sink, are generally reported as clean, although some guests noted issues with toilet cleanliness or the site's exposure to the elements. Proximity to Bakewell and local walks is a key highlight.

Anonymous Non-electric grass tent pitch
Liked In an ideal location as it’s only 10 minutes from Bakewell and just a bit further from many scenic walks. Lovely nearby small villages. The site was basic but exactly what we were looking for with basic facilities (what you would expect with “wild camping”). I would return again or recommend anyone to stay here as we had no problems as two 17 year olds.
