  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Chatsworth House and Haddon House both 20 minutes’ drive
  • Ice cream sold on site; access to Lathkill Dale via the camping fields
When you’re keen to get out exploring the Derbyshire Dales, you can’t get much closer to them than Haddon Grove Farm Campsite. This welcoming, family-run caravan and camping site has direct access to spectacular Lathkill Dale from the pitches. Located on a dog-friendly working dairy farm – you are welcome to meet the cows, horses and chickens – with views to the hills and dales of the Peak District National Park, the site was established in the early 1950s and has gone from strength to strength ever since. There are separate fields for family use – with play areas and rope swings – and others for group bookings, ensuring nobody gets disturbed on site. Facilities run to a shower block and wash room, and as barbecues are allowed by the pitches in the camping fields (source any foodie bits in the pretty town of Bakewell, 10 minutes’ drive), firepits can be hired on site. Logs are sold from the small on-site shop, which – more importantly for the kids – also stocks tasty ice cream from a local farm.

Liked: The amount of space available New toilet block is immaculate.

Disliked: Why doesn’t the new toilet block have showers? Long walk to showers, limited space in there and nowhere to sit and dry your feet. Limited washing up facilities.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: We love this campsite. Beautiful views and a down to earth approach to providing a great place to stay. Simple facilities, that do the job (hurrah for the smart new toilets closer to the camping field!) and you can have a firepit. Really a lovely spot for a walk down into Lathkill Dale or to just hang out on the tops having a chill time.

Liked: We've just come home from a 1 night stay and the site was perfect. Warm welcome on arrival, loads of space, new toilet block was nice and clean. Reasonably priced. Location was brilliant, loads to discover right on the sites doorstep with great pubs in walking distance. We will definitely be visiting again soon!

Power optional gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked: Booked as a cheeky get away with friends On arrival we were met by Amy and directed to our pitches. Even though we had not booked electrics, we were able to upgrade. Which was brilliant. Knowing we were travelling together Amy had also reserved two pitches together. The pitches were lovely and clean and nicely spaced out and a big bonus being level. We were also able to rent a firepit as when we unpacked ours it had holes in. Very dog friendly. All in all the campsite is in a beautiful area and so peaceful, the sunset was amazing and nothing was too much trouble for Amy and her husband. We have booked to go back.

Local attractions

Scenic walks are to be had along the namesake river in Lathkill Dale, where you can stride out towards Lathkill Head Cave (an hour and 20 minutes’ walk) or marvel at the clear springs at The Blue Waters near the peaceful village of Over Haddon (35 minutes). For a slightly longer ramble, Arbor Low Stone Circle and Gib Hill Barrow (90 minutes) reward with prehistoric monuments and ancient burial mounds. Combine your stroll around the verdant grounds at Chatsworth House with a guided tours of the mansion’s ornate rooms packed with priceless antiques, or take in the Elizabethan Walled Gardens at Haddon Hall (both 20 minutes’ drive) after you’ve admired the tapestry collection and medieval chapel. For an insight into Peak District heritage, visit the bijou Eyam Museum (also 20 minutes) in the famed ‘plague village’ to learn the story of the Bubonic Plague of 1346–52, or have a wander around the deserted remains of Magpie Mine (five minutes’ drive), which was the last working lead mine in Derbyshire and closed in 1958.
