Ashbourne Heights Holiday Park

Family park three miles from the Peak District town of Ashbourne
Seven and a half miles from Alton Towers
Indoor pool, licensed shop and picnic area

If you had to pick a Peak District place, you'd be displaying tiptop taste if you went for Ashbourne. For there are many whys: it’s at the southern tip of the Peak District and a gateway to the same; it leads straight on to the Tissington Trail, and it’s sevenish miles from the heady heights of Alton Towers. More? It's also been the site of a raucous game of football every Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday since medieval times; and (possibly related), one in every four of its buildings is or has been an inn or brewery. It's not a bit surprising that illustrious visitors in its past have included Bonnie Prince Charlie and Charles I, although they probably didn’t have time to stop off for a game of footie… Add to your list Ashbourne Heights (formerly known as Highfields Park), three miles from town, well placed to reach a range of market towns like Bakewell and Buxton, and with a good range of facilities and services to fire the family up. From the site you can reach the main sights, activities, landscapes and history of the Peak District: too many to go into here, but do bring your camera. Ashbourne Heights has a heated indoor pool, and generously-sized pitches with room for awnings, gazebos and a car parked alongside. Other facilities at the park include a licensed shop, picnic area, launderette, covered washing-up areas, showers, toilets and a baby changing area. All in all, a pretty good Peak District pitstop…

What customers say

Great spot with direct Tissington Trail access. Friendly staff, clean facilities, spacious pitches. Pool and playground a hit with families. Pods/bell tents are comfy. Some find toilets a bit dated, and occasional noise/cleanliness issues noted.

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Swim pool, large and varied play park - I had my 6 yr old grand-daughter with me. Helpful friendly staff. Quiet corner of very large holiday park. Near tissington trail. Facilities all clean

Disliked Weather! Can’t be helped. But I was on a sloping grass pitch and it was tricky to manoeuvre and get level - I sadly carved up the grass a bit but maintenance man came to help me quickly when summoned. We braved the long walk to the very welcoming Bentley Brook Inn at night - (Coach n Horses need to update their website 😱 they were closed)

Powered grass caravan site

Liked Quiet site, good size play park, great to have swimming pool onsite, toilet and shower block were clean, great location for trip to Alton Towers, lovely pubs within walking distance - we went to Dog for drinks and coach and horses for dinner.

Disliked Only children up to 12yrs were meant to be in the park. It was lovely to see our teens being kids again and enjoying the park. The park was empty and they weren’t upsetting any younger kids but were told by guy cutting the grass to not be in the park. I would understand if the park was busy or they were being rude or rough to upset younger kids but they were just enjoying hanging out, being kids again on the swings. Just felt a bit petty.

Liked Quietness was totally awesome, little small shop and a swimming pool. Small play area for kids. Not a lot else.

Disliked Security to get on park was nonexistent.
Shower block door was broken, and wasn’t the cleanest of an area.

Camping pod

Liked We had a lovely stay in one of the pods for my daughters birthday, even having a little birthday message for her on arrival. Everything was clean, booking swimming was easy and the park was nice for the kids too. We took our dogs and there are lots of options for dog walking. We'll definitely be booking a pod again!

Local attractions

The amount of antics available at Alton Towers near Ashbourne Heights might turn grownups grey among the thrill rides, river rapids and other heady highlights of the country’s biggest theme park. You’ll ensure Very Good Behaviour Indeed if you take the family on to Gulliver’s Kingdom at Matlock Bath, designed to keep all ages busy/tired out for later (beware the nerf guns). Other energetic Peak District pastimes include watersports, laser tag, climbing, caving and zipwiring; find out where’s what at Ashbourne’s tourist information centre, which is practised in all things Peak. More peacefully, the Peak District has a high amount of culture and heritage to explore: National Trust houses and estates, the old spa towns of Matlock and Buxton, museums of all sorts, prehistoric cave paintings, three vintage railways and aeons more. Lead mining was a main industry here from Roman times until recently and info on the industry can be mined at the Peak District Mining Museum at Matlock. Bolsover Castle, founded in the 12th century, has regular events to tempt the kids, such as exhibitions on torture for the gruesomely minded, an indoor riding school, and a theatrical room just for little darlings.
