  • Well-equipped Derbyshire touring site with easy access from the A517
  • A 10-minute drive to Ashbourne and the edge of the Peak District
  • Dog-friendly site a mile from Hulland Ward's village pub and farm shop
Parking up for the Peak District to flit between limestone valleys, pretty villages and green peaks? Take your kit to Ashbourne Touring and Camping Park, a well-equipped site in a handy spot just off the A517, a mile from the village of Hulland Ward. Easy access from the main road means it’s nice and straightforward to get set up at this Derbyshire site – and that location also means you’ll be handily close to the village’s pub and farm shop (a useful source of supplies for your barbecue back at base). Bus services from the stop just outside can take you to Ashbourne's cobbled streets and weekly open-air market – or, alternatively, drive yourself over there in about 10 minutes. In fact, everything here has been designed to make life nice and easy for guests, with well-kept, ample toilet and shower facilities, a chemical disposal area and a washing-up area provided. And if you can't bear the thought of leaving a faithful furry companion behind, good news – dogs are welcome to join you on site as long as they're well-behaved. You'll probably want to plan lots of days out around the area. The edge of the Peak District National Park is about 10 minutes' drive away, as is the start of the traffic-free Tissington Trail, so you'll be in a good position for getting out to explore the lovely landscapes. And there are plenty of other attractions around too, including Alton Towers and the grand Chatsworth Estate.

A clean, peaceful campsite with helpful staff. Spacious, level pitches. Praised for spotless facilities. Great Peak District base, good for dogs and kids. Minor road noise/Wi-Fi issues, but most love it and want to come back.

Liked The camp site was clean and tidy. The campers were friendly and kept to the 11pm till 8am quiet times. Toilets and showers were clean. Good value for money. Walks nearby and short drive to village.

Disliked Tent area was sloped but ok to sleep if you had a camp bed. Not easy if your a floor sleeper. 11am leaving time meant we were a bit rushed.

Liked Greeted by a lovely lady who welcomed us. Shower block, toilets, and the site in general was clean and tidy. When booking we were unsure if this site was suitable for young families, but it more than catered for us. Lovely little walks around the site and a great little play area for the children to run around in.

Liked We love it here. It has everything we need for a very reasonable price. Toilets clean, staff friendly, endless things to do within a few miles. Second year running and we will go back. For me this is a happy medium, it’s not “eco” basic, it’s got everything and it’s in good condition and well maintained. It’s a perfect base to explore the area as there is plenty to do. Also 2 years in a row we’ve been lucky to share the site with exclusively lovely people - really friendly and respectful clientele

Disliked There isn’t any WiFi - we didn’t mind but I can’t get the rating off!
