Small, modern caravan park in the Peak District National Park
A 20-minute drive from Chatsworth Estate and 10 minutes from Buxton
Award-winning pub within walking distance

A small, modern and well-kept site, within easy reach of Buxton and Bakewell and a short walk from an award-winning pub – Farditch Farm is quite the Peak District pleaser. This friendly park in the village of Chelmorton is the place to settle for a little while if you seek your own space; valuing quality over quantity, the owners have elected to set up just a handful of pitches, each one spacious and surrounded by landscaping for the dual win of privacy and pretty colour. There's also good vehicle access, although the site is quite close to a busy road and does experience some traffic noise. Facilities have been limited to the essentials to maintain an uncrowded vibe. But what essentials they are – the smart central facilities building has a cosy lounge area and communal kitchen, and the adjacent toilet block has all mod cons, including plenty of showers, an accessible bathroom and handy touches including hairdryers. A cycle storage area is available on request, with secure storage and bike wash point. Skipping out from the site you can your pick from rural rambles on the miles and miles of trails that network the Peak District National Park, sampling the puddings in Bakewell and taking the waters in the spa town of Buxton. Pick up your eats at Chatsworth’s farm shop, 20 minutes’ drive away, or wander down to the local pub, the Church Inn, to see why it’s picked up awards for its offerings (tasty food and a fire by which to sup your pint, perchance?)

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Loved the facilities which included a fully fitted kitchen with washing machine, fridge and freezer, lounge with lots of information about the local area and spotless toilets and showers. The pitch itself was large with power, water and grey waste disposal and surrounded on three sides by raised planted beds to ensure privacy from other pitches. The site was clean, well maintained and very pretty with views over surrounding hills. A bit pricier but worth every penny. Location was great and I will be back.

Disliked: I was on pitch 5 which was close to the road. It wasn't a busy road but be prepared for some traffic noise from farm vehicles.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thankyou for your kind review. You had great weather as the pictures show. We are happy to read you would recommend us and we look forward to you visiting us again in the future.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Spotlessly clean, great facilities, beautiful location. Quiet , stunning scenery

Disliked: The pitch had a brick wall at the rear which meant we had to pitch our caravan horizontally thankfully we had a motor mover !

From the manager: Thankyou for your kind review. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and the scenic setting. The motor mover definitely comes in handy. We look forward to welcoming you back in the future.

Local attractions

With Chelmorton in the midst of the Peak District National Park, there are heaps of outdoorsy activities within easy reach. Walkers and cyclists have miles of trails to pick from; popular favourites nearby include the Tissington and Monsal trails. Horse riding, canoeing and climbing excursions are also available around the park. And might you fancy pottering around the country’s fave country house? Then it’s off to Chatsworth, 20 minutes from the site – the Italianate stately home has been voted to the top of the polls several times for its fab collection of art, its stunning state rooms and its gorgeous gardens. There’s also a farmyard and playground here for the amusement of smaller visitors. Plan to spend a bit of time in both the local towns of Buxton and Bakewell – the former for its grand opera house and elegant spa town heritage, the latter for poking about in the market and sampling its famed sweet treats (which is better – the tart or the pudding? Well, there’s only one way to settle that debate…)
