  • Adults-only site in the Peak District, 10 minutes’ drive from Bakewell
  • Chatsworth House 10 minutes’ drive; Bamford Edge hikes 25 minutes
  • Serviced dog-friendly pitches a five-minute walk from village pubs
When only the spectacular and challenging trails of the Peak District National Park can satisfy your hiking ambitions, Church Lane Farm Touring, in rural Derbyshire, makes for a pretty convenient base. This well-maintained caravan park on the outskirts of the village of Great Longstone is remarkably peaceful – not least because it’s an adults-only site (and also because you can count the number of pitches on the fingers of one hand). Although children are not allowed, dogs are welcome, and they will probably be wagging their tails at the mere suggestion of walks among the heather on the Longstone Moor (five minutes’ drive), or at Curbar Edge (10 minutes) or around the woodland of National Trust Padley Gorge (15 minutes). Pitches have water, electric and drainage hook-ups, and there are picnic tables on site. And another excellent thing about Church Lane Farm Touring? The fact that it’s within walking distance (literally five minutes) from a couple of traditional village pubs serving real ales and home-cooked meals. Great Longstone also has a village shop, while the local farm has installed a vending machine that dispenses fresh pasteurised milk, eggs and a small selection of meats (bacon, sausages and burgers); for anything else, Bakewell is a 10-minute drive away.

What customers say

Highly recommended, small, peaceful, adult-only site with spacious, well-kept, full-service pitches and great views. Short walk to Great Longstone village, pubs, shops & Monsal Trail for walking/cycling. Guests love the quiet, self-sufficient vibe. Some found it pricey; dogs extra. No toilets/showers advertised & fine for self-contained units.

FHU cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Amazing location, quiet and peaceful. Big wide pitch and great views.

Disliked Access on the surrounding roads needed careful planning and extreme care. Probably best to approach via Hassop and not through Great Longstone village (the locals aren’t keen caravans driven through either). Make sure you have a wheel levelling ramp and corner steady blocks as pitches are not the flattest. Also need long electric cable (more than 10m) and water pipe as services further back than usual pitches we have used. Waste water hog needed too as drain is up hill from pitch.

Local attractions

The River Wye winds its way around the market town of Bakewell (10 minutes’ drive), birthplace of the famed tart (a delicious pastry with jam and frangipane), which you should be able to find in every bakery and coffee shop here. The Old House Museum explores the history of the inhabitants of this stone building from the Tudor era. Chatsworth House (10 minutes) is a grand mansion that has been in the same family for 17 generations. The grand Painted Hall – with its elegant staircase and gilded balustrades – is particularly fabulous, while the Oak Room is filled with spiralling wooden columns and decorative carvings. Outside, deer inhabit the Capability Brown-landscaped grounds. Views from Bamford Edge (25 minutes) take in the Ladybower Reservoir, on the banks of which is a business that rents out fishing boats and float tubes. The slopes to the east of the lake are dotted with unusual rock formations and stone circles, such as the Bamford Moor Stone Circle.
