What customers say

Peak District stunner, right by Mam Tor with valley views. Basic site, clean portaloos, wash-up area. Honesty box for supplies. Castleton pubs/shops nearby. Peaceful vibes, friendly staff. Sloping fields and no drinking water/showers noted, but great for short breaks.

Tammy I.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Loved how close it was to Mam tor, the ease of booking, how easy it was to get to and the fact it was in walking distance of castleton town.

Disliked There wasnt much to dislike. It's a stunning campsite, couldn't have asked for better. Only thing that could have just gave it that extra something was showers perhaps.

fiona r.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Absolutely gorgeous campsite. 360 degree stunning views, lots of level pitches - few slightly sloping. Beautiful lush grass to walk around barefoot. And so much bird life - swallows everywhere and buzzards circling. You feel in the middle of nowhere yet Castleton village is a 15 minute walk. Easy access to the Mam Tor trailhead with tonnes of walks in every direction. You can see the campsite from the hills and appreciate how remote it is. Toilets are proper flushing and spotless but no drinking water. I stupidly assumed you could still boil a kettle with it but no, this seriously is not drinkable. I would hesitate to wash up dishes with it so make sure you bring your own!!!
Castleton village is a gorgeous little place and the Farm shop at the bottom of the lane from the campsite is a real treat - fantastic food/cakes and they have a large gang of ducks/chickens who wander around completely unfazed by humans/dogs on leads - just watch your food purchases as they do pester you!

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked Great place, well looked after. We had an amazing time and it's not the first time we went there. This is because this camping site is one if the best ones. With the owner being reachable and ever so helpful. We had a fire pit in the evening that had made whole experience so much better.

Liked Fabulous relaxed campsite in a great location. Set in beautiful countryside and only a 20 minute walk into the lovely Castleton. Toilets clean with washing up facilities. No showers but not a problem if you can do without.

Liked Nice to be able to choose where you park and there’s plenty of room if you want to be away from others.

The toilets are exceptionally clean.

Honesty boxes are great.

Alexander R.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked A lovely, peaceful and relaxed atmosphere. Friendly touches (such as the honesty box filled with homemaker goodies, bottles of water, marshmallows, etc). Great that the site permits both bbqs and fires. A very nice environment for our kids first camping experience

Disliked Nothing - everything was as advertised and expected. A great place to camp

Liked Location was excellent and site was not too busy. There was cold running water and one sink to wash up.

View up to Mam Tor and about 30 mins walk to Castleton. Take cash if you plan to use honesty box.

Excellent phone signal!

Disliked Toilets were grim. We knew there’d be no hot water or showers but didn’t expect toilets to be as they were.

No one on site to watch over things on site so a couple of groups of youngsters were up into the early hours being noisy.

Local attractions

With lots of historic sites to see, landscapes to hike and caverns to descend into, the first bit is deciding where to start. For days hiking, the Pennine Way starts in Edale (15 minutes’ drive) and heads out onto moors, past reservoirs and gritstone edges. A hike with a view is certain at Ladybower Reservoir (15 minutes) too. Five miles through Cave Dale (30 minutes' walk), a limestone valley, is just as splendid. Places you might want to visit on the way include Castleton village and Peveril Castle - and there are views towards Mam Tor and The Great Ridge too. Caverns on your ‘to-explore’ list? Take an underground boat trip in Speedwell Cavern (35 minutes), investigate the Blue John stone in Treak Cliff Cavern (five minutes' drive) or learn rope-making in Peak Cavern (25 minutes' walk). When it’s time to extend your learning to history in the Peak District, Peveril Castle (25 minutes) above Castleton village is one the closest ruins. For somewhere that has survived the test of time, and now makes a rather excellent picnicking location, is Chatsworth House (30 minutes' drive). The estate also has a farmyard and playground.
