Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Really enjoyed our stay. Toilet’s were clean and smelt great. Plenty of room. Easy to get in and out. No problems whatsoever. Would come again.

Disliked We just got confused that we had to go to the actual farm reception and then follow the road around for the campsite itself.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked Exactly as described. A large field with portaloos, water taps and bins for rubbish. A quiet site, not even the usual 4am bird calls although we did see buzzards flying above. Plenty of space to play bat/ball when we went.

It’s flat, well maintained and the gate is lockable.

The farm next door is one of the best we have been to, the animals are very well kept, plenty to do, sheep racing, ferret racing, bathing the tortoise, seeing the highland cows and reindeer, sheep and goats, the staff were friendly, a day well spent, we will be coming again and camping again!!

Also close to Matlock, we nipped into town to go to the park and get fish and chips for tea. It could be a base for a day out at Heights of Abraham or walks etc

Disliked Nothing, we knew it was wild camping and was exactly what we wanted to do with our grandson for an adventure.

Great, basic, campsite and have a fire (off ground) under the stars.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The quietness and huge expanse of sky were fantastic. Lack of amenities may mean fewer children - which suited us. Animal park next door is a bonus but we didn't go in.

Disliked A sink to wash in would have been good. Just a tap and portaloos is a very basic setup. Disadvantage of location - Only place to eat/ drink / buy eggs etc. in walking distance is a holiday park where the kitchen closes at 8 and the bar closes at 10.

What customers say

This site offers a peaceful, spacious vibe. Guests loved the quiet and room to play. Facilities are basic but clean. Close to Matlock Farm Park with discounts. Some want showers/dishwashing. A few bin/noise issues noted, but most would return.

Local attractions

The extensive estate at Chatsworth (20 minutes’ drive) has lots to do, so you can easily make a day of it, splitting your hours between house tours, garden walks and time spent at the adventure playground and farmyard. Something similar could be said of Gulliver’s Kingdom (15 minutes), which has enough rides, playgrounds and themed areas to keep you going all day long. If you’d rather stick to natural attractions, there are plenty of those in the Peak District National Park – perhaps you’d like to see some of the scenery on a bike ride along the traffic-free Tissington Trail from Ashbourne or while jumping across the Dovedale stepping stones (both 35 minutes). Brave souls may like to see the scenery from above on a cable car ride at Heights of Abraham (15 minutes), which has a hilltop park with caverns to explore. Back down at ground level, you can instead ride on historic vehicles at Crich Tramway Village (15 minutes).
