A mile from Draycott in the Moors; Hawksmoor 10 minutes' drive
Adult-only garden site with sheltered and level grass tent pitches
Eco-friendly off-grid camping, with owner on site

Little Grange is a rural site set in a quiet garden in the Staffordshire countryside. This location is convenient for all sorts of activities, whether you plan on taking on the rides at Alton Towers (15 minutes' drive) or prefer quieter days out sauntering through the wild ancient woodlands of the Churnet Valley at Hawksmoor (10 minutes). With just a small selection of pitches, all of them level and sheltered, this tent-friendly destination is full of greenery, gorgeous views and wildlife. You're sure of plenty of space at Little Grange, including for outdoor activities like lighting, cooking over and sitting around a campfire. Although it's a small spot, Little Grange has good basic facilities for guests, including access to well-maintained toilets and showers. Wifi is available, well-behaved dogs are welcome and ice packs can be frozen too. For further amenities, you're an easy one-mile walk, cycle or drive away from the small village of Draycott in the Moors. The nearest railway station at Blythe Bridge is just over two miles from site. This campsite is easily accessible from the A50, a road that makes it quick to get from your pitch to central Stoke-on-Trent (15 minutes) or to Uttoxeter (15 minutes). Slightly further afield, you're also well within range of the Peak District National Park (20 minutes).

Anonymous June 2023

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Nice flat camping area on a large back lawn, plenty of space as only takes 4 pitches. Very friendly and helpful host, shower available in the hosts' house (£3) with towels provided and use of hairdryer... perfect after a couple of days cycling in the Peak District.

Unpowered grass tent site

Liked: Quiet, secluded and a pleasant back-to-basics rural campsite in the back garden of a private house. Nice level pitch.

Disliked: Site is not well signed. You will struggle to find it if approaching from the north as there is only a little house sign “Little Grange” visible from the south. Background noise from A50.

Brilliant little site. Does exactly what it says on the tin. Small…
