  • Valley site a mile from the Peak District town of Buxton
  • Surrounded by woodland and with a gorge and viaduct at one end
  • Play area on site; half an hour's walk from the town centre
Travelling types, move Buxton to the top of your list… This Derbyshire spa town and gateway to the Peak District is only a mile away from Lime Tree Holiday Park – it'll take you five minutes to drive or half an hour to walk into the town centre from this handy base. The site is in its own valley in a Special Landscape Area, surrounded by farmland and with a wooded limestone gorge and old railway viaduct at one edge. (Maps, brochures and sheets of information on local attractions are at the Lime Tree reception, or ask one of the helpful staff for advice on things to see and do.) Facilities on site include an adventure playground where kids can let off steam and an ice block freezing facility so that you can look forward to a chilled drink after a long day out adventuring. The site also has a microwave where you're welcome to heat babies’ or toddlers' food and a gas cylinder exchange service. Among the amenities are a modern toilet block (in the centre of the field, no less), showers and a washing-up area.

What customers say

A top-notch, tidy site with brilliant modern facilities, especially the gleaming showers. Friendly staff are a highlight. Great for exploring the Peak District and walking to Buxton. Mostly rave reviews, though some found pitches sloped and noted minor noise or closures. A peaceful, enjoyable stay overall.

Liked Really peaceful, quiet and friendly site.
Close to Buxton and could walk there even with young children.
Toilets and showers were perfectly clean for our whole stay and there were no queues as there were only a few guests during our stay.
Staff were helpful and friendly.
Lovely little play area on site.

Disliked The tent area is quite sloped so at busy times you could find it tricky to get a flat spot to set up on.

Local attractions

Like Bath in the south, Buxton was founded as a spa town by the Romans and became popular in Georgian times for the supposed health-giving properties of its spa water. Fill up your water bottle at St Anne's Well in front of the Crescent, then go on a Buxton tour to see its Georgian architecture and smart landscape, including the ornamental gardens at the Pavilion, and the Buxton Opera House, the highest in the country. The Peak District as a whole is full of market towns stuffed with local produce and interesting attractions: go to Bakewell for the essential eponymous tart; Leek for Rudyard Lake and the steam train; Ashbourne for a couple of hundred listed buildings, and fellow spa town Matlock Bath. If you don’t mind travelling a bit further, Sheffield and Manchester can both be reached in an hour to an hour and a quarter. Also nearby is Castleton with Norman Peveril Castle and four show caves; if going underground is your thing, also check out the caves at Poole’s Cavern just outside Buxton. And there’s caving (and climbing) aplenty all around the Peak District National Park, along with stacks of outdoor pursuits like hot air ballooning, gliding, watersports and biking the Tissington and Manifold trails.
