  • 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

Haddon Grove Farm gets rave reviews for its amazing views, lots of space, and direct access to country walks. Owners are super friendly & helpful, and the facilities are clean & modern. Guests love picking their own spot & the family vibe. It can get busy, especially weekends, with some noise from campers.

Primitive gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Massive, relaxed site with gorgeous views. Nice, new facilities that are sparkling clean and run with hot water. Segregated waste, including food although a lot of people couldn't read the signs! Friendly owners who are cheery and helpful, and staff a small shop with some produce, wood etc.
Immediate walking access into Lathkill Dale which is a lovely walk of however long you choose.

Disliked Not much. Some of the land is quite sloped and exposed, but not a major problem.

Liked Lots of space. So many different fields to choose from.
Lovely toilets and showers

Disliked Not the campsites fault but why do some people think it’s ok to blast their music out for everyone in the field to hear? I don’t get this mindset of coming to the peace of the countryside to do this. It’s so selfish!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Great washing facilities and although they were quite small we never had to queue. Fire pits rental for £10 for your entire stay and wood and kindling for £15 a bag that will go all evening.
There was a tiny food truck and pizza truck on site. They tell you to order pizza to avoid disappointment and they weren’t exaggerating. Opens at 5pm and when we got to it at 6.05pm they were already fully sold out but the other truck does gyros and had plenty. They also do breakfast.
You can pitch anywhere meaning groups can face any way and create a great camp space.

Powered gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked We loved the site! Perfect for our weekend away. Great atmosphere, the little shop and the optional food on site was fab! Next time we come we won’t bring as much food with us so we can enjoy these more!
Perfect location for Bakewell and surrounding villages.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Absolutely loved our stay here, the campsite was huge with lots of space to choose a pitch. Brilliant views all round. The pizza van and Greek food van was a lovely touch and the mobile gin bar. Facilities were extremely clean and well kept every time we used. Staff so friendly, helpful and trusting.

Disliked A large group of maybe 12 young adults turned up on our second night and decided to set up their tents ridiculously close to ours, constantly shouting and screaming till all hours, setting their car alarms off and generally being inconsiderate.

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.
