  • Adults-only site in the Peak District, 10 minutes’ drive from Bakewell
  • Chatsworth House 10 minutes’ drive; Bamford Edge hikes 25 minutes
  • Serviced dog-friendly pitches a five-minute walk from village pubs
When only the spectacular and challenging trails of the Peak District National Park can satisfy your hiking ambitions, Church Lane Farm Touring, in rural Derbyshire, makes for a pretty convenient base. This well-maintained caravan park on the outskirts of the village of Great Longstone is remarkably peaceful – not least because it’s an adults-only site (and also because you can count the number of pitches on the fingers of one hand). Although children are not allowed, dogs are welcome, and they will probably be wagging their tails at the mere suggestion of walks among the heather on the Longstone Moor (five minutes’ drive), or at Curbar Edge (10 minutes) or around the woodland of National Trust Padley Gorge (15 minutes). Pitches have water, electric and drainage hook-ups, and there are picnic tables on site. And another excellent thing about Church Lane Farm Touring? The fact that it’s within walking distance (literally five minutes) from a couple of traditional village pubs serving real ales and home-cooked meals. Great Longstone also has a village shop, while the local farm has installed a vending machine that dispenses fresh pasteurised milk, eggs and a small selection of meats (bacon, sausages and burgers); for anything else, Bakewell is a 10-minute drive away.

What customers say

Peaceful, small site with spacious, well-kept pitches. Great countryside views, ideal for walking/cycling. Pubs, shop, Monsal Trail close by. While some missed toilets/showers, most were self-sufficient. Considered a "gem," many want to return. A few found dog costs high for facilities, but manager highlighted dog-friendly benefits.

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Immaculate site well set out for large units ours is 8.5m motorhome. Pitches are large enough and all hard standing. Water and power on all pitches. Black waste and grey waste just adjacent to entrance. Bins for waste close to pitches and views are amazing. Very quiet site and a short walk from village.farm owners are very friendly and even offered to drive out and get us some food as we had decided to go to local pub for food and it was shut (unexpectedly) and we had minimal food on bored. (A one night stay)

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Lovely 5 van site, loved the peace and quiet, great access to village amenities and two great pubs that did food. Very basic site with no showers/toilets, but this wasn’t an issue for we had our own facilities. Would highly recommend

Fully-serviced concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Wonderful views of the surrounding hills and fields within a village. Great walks directly from the site. Spacious hard standing pitches fully serviced (ie water, electric, drainage). Great gray waste emptying. Bus within 5 minutes walk. Two pubs in village serving food. We ate in the Crispin. Really nice food, excellent service and very reasonable. The site has their own little shop selling fresh milk,eggs and milkshakes. Only 10 minutes ride to the Monsal trail (walking/cycling). Great trail runs into Bakewell (about 3 miles). I walked one way and got bus back. Great base where you can pitch up and leave the Moho and find plenty to do.

Local attractions

The River Wye winds its way around the market town of Bakewell (10 minutes’ drive), birthplace of the famed tart (a delicious pastry with jam and frangipane), which you should be able to find in every bakery and coffee shop here. The Old House Museum explores the history of the inhabitants of this stone building from the Tudor era. Chatsworth House (10 minutes) is a grand mansion that has been in the same family for 17 generations. The grand Painted Hall – with its elegant staircase and gilded balustrades – is particularly fabulous, while the Oak Room is filled with spiralling wooden columns and decorative carvings. Outside, deer inhabit the Capability Brown-landscaped grounds. Views from Bamford Edge (25 minutes) take in the Ladybower Reservoir, on the banks of which is a business that rents out fishing boats and float tubes. The slopes to the east of the lake are dotted with unusual rock formations and stone circles, such as the Bamford Moor Stone Circle.
