Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: A lovely peaceful campsite with great views of the countryside. Baby goats in the field next to us and chickens roaming around was lovely to see. Basic facilities but spotlessly clean. A welcome text from Billy with directions was a nice touch and greeted on arrival. Handy site to visit Buxton.

Disliked: Nothing at all to dislike about this campsite.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked: Really pleasant rural site where hens wander about and baby goats bleat in the next field. It is a working farm, so the sound of machinery was noticeable. Quite basic, but good value for money. As a camper van newbie, it was really good to get a thoughtful text from the owner beforehand.

Local attractions

How do you like your hikes? With a waterfall and moorland views, like the landscape at Kinder Scout (45 minutes' drive)? Across a gritstone viewpoint where rock climbers often scale the crags, like Stanage Edge (half an hour)? Perhaps you’d rather a shorter stroll, broken up with picnics in the peaceful grounds of Chatsworth House (20 minutes), a 17th-century mansion with its own farmyard and adventure playground. The towns of Bakewell (10 minutes), Ashbourne (25 minutes) or Buxton (15 minutes) will slow down the pace too, with plenty of places to stop for a Bakewell tart or another tasty bite to eat. You’ll be going underground in search of limestone caverns with stalactites and fossils at Poole's Cavern & Buxton Country Park (15 minutes). Haddon Hall (20 minutes) is a different world entirely – a Tudor hall with Elizabethan gardens.
