1/7

Looking for an environmentally guilt free camping/caravanning holiday? You've found it at Shallow Grange. This is a working farm with a low carbon footprint. We offer a state of the art shower block with solar water heating system, underfloor heating, low energy air conditioning system, low energy L.E.D. lighting, low volume flush toilets using water from our rainwater capture reservoir. An array of solar panels produces up to 10 kw of electricity for the site. Stroll through our Natural England Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Enjoy the beautiful views & the peace & quiet of our small, friendly site. Relax with some on site fishing or go for an energetic hike straight from the public footpath on the farm to atmospheric Deep Dale & beautiful Chee Dale. To camp here is to be in noble company! There is well documented evidence showing battalions of the famous Sherwood Foresters using Shallow Grange as their summer camp at the beginning of the last century.
