  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Access to Lathkill Dale directly from the site
  • Woodfired pizzas and ice cream sold on site
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. The site also sells woodfired pizzas, which should be handy if you fancy eating something more substantial.

What customers say

This roomy campsite has awesome Peak District views & direct access to Lathkill Dale hikes. Reviewers loved the friendly, helpful owners, clean facilities (incl. new showers), & chill vibe. Great for families, groups, & solo travellers. Food trucks are a hit! Busy times might mean minor waits for facilities; some pitches are a bit of a trek to them.

Liked Big field and area to walk around.

Disliked Cold water in the showers on Sunday. Toilet bins were overflowing.

From the manager: Hi unfortunately there was a 5 minute power cut at midnight on the Saturday night which caused one of the boilers to need resetting, once we did that on Sunday morning all was good and back to the temperature you had had for the previous three days. Thanks for your review and we hope you have a good day 😊

Amanda S.

Primitive gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Fantastic views, great proximity to the small town of Bakewell and Lathkil Dale walk. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come again.

Disliked Not really a dislike, just a small grumble - the rules stated you could only use the sites own fire pits which cost £10 per stay and their logs, also £10 per stay. As we were only there for one night, it was expensive. Perhaps a daily rate for the firepit hire might have been fairer. I appreciate we didn't have to have a fire though and so it was our decision to purchase.

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 tour 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.
