  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Access to Lathkill Dale directly from the site
  • Woodfired pizzas and ice cream sold on site
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. The site also sells woodfired pizzas, which should be handy if you fancy eating something more substantial.

What customers say

Spacious pitches, friendly owners, and clean facilities with new showers. Enjoy Peak District views & Lathkill Dale walks. Food trucks & shop a hit. Some noted facility distance/noise, but overall great value & relaxed atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Very friendly welcome. Large site so despite being very busy, it was not overcrowded. Toilet and shower facilities were spotless and modern. There were popup pizza stalls and fire pit hire. The views over Lathkill Dale are spectacular. This is an excellent site and we will definitely be returning.

Liked A very beautiful and large site. Lady owner very friendly and helpful....

Disliked We were there on a busy August weekend, with a good weather forecast. The toilet and shower facilities were well maintained and clean.... sadly, woefully few for the size of site and numbers, on this weekend.

Powered gravel and cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Very good and large place near the nature park reserve

Disliked I didn't like the heavy and fast-paced traffic in the park. The customer service was very poor, and I was considered a thief. A child collected a few branches for a fire and one larger one, and the lady said the wood was available for purchase. It was supposed to be a child's game, but I had my own wood and could have bought more, but it was enough for me. I've been traveling frequently for several years now, and I've never been treated this way anywhere else.

From the manager: What was the child’s game called? Let’s chainsaw some wood up! we don’t allow people cutting our trees up sorry Pinocchio

Brilliant site will definitely be back

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 tour 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.
