  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Chatsworth House and Haddon House both 20 minutes’ drive
  • Ice cream sold on site; access to Lathkill Dale via the camping fields
When you’re keen to get out exploring the Derbyshire Dales, you can’t get much closer to them than Haddon Grove Farm Campsite. This welcoming, family-run caravan and camping site has direct access to spectacular Lathkill Dale from the pitches. Located on a dog-friendly working dairy farm – you are welcome to meet the cows, horses and chickens – with views to the hills and dales of the Peak District National Park, the site was established in the early 1950s and has gone from strength to strength ever since. There are separate fields for family use – with play areas and rope swings – and others for group bookings, ensuring nobody gets disturbed on site. Facilities run to a shower block and wash room, and as barbecues are allowed by the pitches in the camping fields (source any foodie bits in the pretty town of Bakewell, 10 minutes’ drive), firepits can be hired on site. Logs are sold from the small on-site shop, which – more importantly for the kids – also stocks tasty ice cream from a local farm.

Power optional gravel and concrete caravan site

Liked: Beautiful location.

Disliked: Facilities could be improved. Shower/toilet block is very basic and could be cleaner. Facility for emptying toilets and waste water isn't fit for purpose. It is expensive considering the state of it.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Toilet facilities were really clean and the views from the lower fields in the campsite were stunning! There were several food vans that visited the campsite. Pizza in the evening and breakfast rolls in the morning. What’s not to love!?

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site

Liked: Great site friendly staff. Was serving dinner and breakfast while we was there. Lovely toilets set in a great location. Use off fire pits a very good option.

Disliked: Although shower cubicles are individual and are closed off with a door that locks the changing area to get dressed and put your stuff isn’t closed off from the shower itself so I found water got all over my stuff while showering. Shower needs a shower curtain to stop this.

Unpowered grass caravan site

Liked: First time going and received a warm welcome. Only stayed for one night but can’t wait to come back. Was good having the new toilet block as the other ones would be quite a trek in the middle of the night. Was nice as it wasn’t too busy and plenty of fields to choose from. Campsite was nice and quiet

Local attractions

Scenic walks are to be had along the namesake river in Lathkill Dale, where you can stride out towards Lathkill Head Cave (an hour and 20 minutes’ walk) or marvel at the clear springs at The Blue Waters near the peaceful village of Over Haddon (35 minutes). For a slightly longer ramble, Arbor Low Stone Circle and Gib Hill Barrow (90 minutes) reward with prehistoric monuments and ancient burial mounds. Combine your stroll around the verdant grounds at Chatsworth House with a guided tours of the mansion’s ornate rooms packed with priceless antiques, or take in the Elizabethan Walled Gardens at Haddon Hall (both 20 minutes’ drive) after you’ve admired the tapestry collection and medieval chapel. For an insight into Peak District heritage, visit the bijou Eyam Museum (also 20 minutes) in the famed ‘plague village’ to learn the story of the Bubonic Plague of 1346–52, or have a wander around the deserted remains of Magpie Mine (five minutes’ drive), which was the last working lead mine in Derbyshire and closed in 1958.
