  • Back to basics Peak District site with a view over Millers Dale
  • A mile to the Monsal Trail; 15 minutes' drive to Buxton and Bakewell
  • Farm shop and café on site; firepits available to hire
Bunk up in a barn at Beltonville Farm for a brill time in the White Peak part of the Peak District – this site’s just a mile from the Monsal Trail and therefore splendidly placed for a strolling, cycling or horse-riding holiday in Derbyshire. When you’re not tottering along this disused railway line transformed into a pretty path, soak up the views over Miller’s Dale; the park is in an elevated position looking out across this Site of Special Scientific Interest’s rock-studded landscape. Chillout sessions are of course boosted by having nosh to chomp on, so drop by the farm shop on site before dusk to pick up bits and bobs such as local veg. The site also has its own café, the Cow Shed Café, which is open every day from 9am. There are regular live music events at the on-site café, mostly on weekends, including live bands, tribute acts and karaoke; on these nights only, cask ales, wines, spirits and beer or cider are up for grabs. Rather a meander followed by a meal out? Map your way to one of several local pubs within a three-mile radius instead for supper. This is a back to basics site but it's well maintained and stretches to such luxuries as toilets and showers. There's also a washing-up area and facilities for people with disabilities. Wood can be purchased at the park for the firepit.

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked: Being able to have a campfire and walking from the campsite.

Disliked: I’m not sure if it’s always this busy every weekend; but despite arriving at 1300 trying to find a pitch was fairly tricky due to the sheer numbers of people on site. It was loud; but to be fair most on site honoured the 2230 noise reduction. The toilets were a little filthy but with the numbers on site it’s hardly surprising. Leaving the site was probably the most dangerous element of my stay as it’s turning onto a 50mph road on a blind bend.

It’s a good site but they need to invest in facilities.

Primitive grass tent campsite (four person)

Liked: The view, the locals walks, local pub

Disliked: When we arrived there was only 1 shower working out of 4. It was also £1 for a 4 minute shower. The reviews said the camping spots were spacious, this is not the case. The toilets were terrible, we had to drive to a local public toilet block 2 minutes away and they were so much cleaner!!! The toilets often had a massive queue and no toilet paper. Clearly not being cleaned often enough for the amount of people staying. There were alot of 18/20 year old group camping. Not a relaxing or peaceful environment.

Primitive grass tent campsite (four person)

Liked: The top field is big and open, nice views.

Disliked: Showers not working. Four shower cubicles. Three had 'out of order' signs. The one without a sign didn't work. My friend put £1 in and no water came out. We were told atthe cafe that These really should be fixed especially for a busy summer weekend. We weren't even informed of this on arrival. Overpriced at £25 per night for a small pitch, especially with the lack of shower facilities. Toilet block also very basic. Drinking water was discoloured and tasted slightly strange.

Primitive grass tent campsite (four person)

Liked: The views here were stunning! Beautiful sunsets and lots of amenities on site! The ground was great for camping, thick grass and level ground. The toilets were always clean and showers were warm too. The pub/cafe was fab and all staff were really friendly - would happily stay here again! Especially as it was in a great location for Bakewell, Buxton and lots of other places in the peaks for nice walks and pubs.

Primitive grass tent campsite (four person)

Liked: Absolutely lovely site, easy to find and checking in was simple. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Stayed in the top field with maybe 5 other campers, super peaceful. So much room and pretty flat! Toilets were clean and well stocked, shower units looked good (didn't use them though) Half mile from Millers Dale so beautiful walks straight from your tent! Will definitely be coming back.

Local attractions

Squidged between Bakewell and Buxton (15 minutes’ drive from either), Beltonville has a nifty location near two of Derbyshire’s most popular towns. Make a foray to the former for River Wye wanders, passing by the medieval arched stone bridge, and the latter to see around some stunning architecture. Highlights on the heritage trail around Buxton Spa include the Georgian-era crescent, the Roman baths and the cupola-topped Devonshire Dome; for older buildings, the village of Castleton (25 minutes), lying in the lee of Mam Tor, has the Norman ruins of Peveril Castle to peer at. This spot’s also the gateway to the Blue John caves, the only places on the planet where the semi-precious Blue John stone can be found. Cast your eye over the largest intact piece ever mined on display at Treak Cliff Cavern (25 minutes), which also has some rather sizable stalactites and stalagmites for geologist types to gaze lovingly upon. Those aiming to give their walking boots a good workout here have plenty of choice: it's well located not just for the Monsal Trail and Millers Dale but also Chee Dale, Tideswell Dale and Winnets Pass.
