What customers say

This peaceful site offers beautiful countryside views, close to village amenities, walks, and the Tissington Trail. Reviewers loved the friendly owners and tranquil vibe. Some noted grass or soft ground, but most found basic facilities adequate for self-contained stays and plan to return. One had payment issues.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Great site with unusually large pitches and beautiful views. We were able to park our 7 metre Camper Van horizontally so we could enjoy the far reaching views of the valley. The response from owners to any messages was immediate. Basic facilities as advertised.

Disliked The only downside for us was there were no footpaths on the roads out of the site.

Disliked No toilet facilities.

Local attractions

To take in the Tissington Trail landscapes on two wheels, bicycle hire is 20 minutes’ drive away from the site. Of course, you could walk this 13-mile trail too. Either way, there are plenty of views of the Derbyshire Dales to go around. On your way around Dovedale (25 minutes’ drive), you’ll get to cross stepping stones and enjoy valley views instead. This beauty spot joins a club of local vistas: Chatsworth Estate (20 minutes) is another big one, with the stately home itself and then the gardens and petting farm. To elevate your heart rate some more, Go Ape Buxton (15 minutes) will put your balance to the test with treetop obstacle courses and zipwires to put your feet back on firm ground. While you’re over this way, you might also like to stop by at Poole’s Cavern & Buxton Country Park (15 minutes), where there’s a limestone cavern, as well as woodland trails up above. Fancy a walk around a medieval park or a tour of parts of a Tudor mansion? This historic type of stroll is available at Haddon Hall (20 minutes).
