  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Access to Lathkill Dale directly from the site
  • Small on-site shop; firepits for hire; animals 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. If you're after something more substantial, head to Annie’s Kitchen (a food van that visits on some weekends) for breakfast sandwiches or evening food and get your mitts on the woodfired pizzas sold most weekends. Drinks are also sold at the bar (open on some weekends).

What customers say

Spacious site, great Peak District views & direct Lathkill Dale access. Owners are super friendly, facilities modern & clean, with pitch choice freedom. Food vans & shop a hit. Mostly quiet, but can get a bit buzzy with campers during peak times. Relaxed vibe, great for families/groups.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked We came on a very busy day but there was still loads of space to pitch our tent and for the kids to run and play (and make lots of excuses to go to the toilet as it was near to the tyre swing - their favourite part!)

The facilities are great, plenty of toilets and showers (which were clean) as well as places to wash up. We also enjoyed the coffee machine and on-site catering.

The site has stunning views over the valley and we took a walk down the dale, taking in the flora and fauna.

The owners are lovely and the whole place felt very safe, we will definitely be returning - thanks for a great stay!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Lots of space and well appointed facilities. Everything felt carefully thought out and well executed. The pizza adoption and food available was great even though we didn’t use it!

Disliked There were several large groups who carried on well into the night which I found very inconsiderate to other guests. Music should be switched off and conversations hushed after midnight.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Toilets and kitchen facilities were great. Clean and tidy site and grass was nicely mowed.

Disliked This site was busy and soooo noisy, the tyre swings were close to me and were just places for kids to congregate and scream non-stop. The screaming started at 7am and carried on all the way to 12am. I wouldn’t go back purely for this reason. There was absolutely no peace and quiet here at all.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Beautiful location with some lovely walks direct from the campsite. Really nice facilities. Food vans and coffee machine are a nice touch. Never had to queue for showers or toilets despite the site being full.

Disliked Noisiest site I’ve ever stayed on. The noise curfew is neither enforced nor adhered to. Tent fields are a free for all which means some parts resemble a festival site. Brilliant site for large groups or families with kids. Not great for solos or couples wanting a peaceful weekend in the Peak District. Bins are quite a long way off which meant some campers dumped their rubbish around the toilet block. Showers not always hot.

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Fantastic location and pitch sizes were great. Walks down to the Dale were breathtaking

Disliked Whilst the shower, toilet and washing up facilities were very modern, there didn’t seem to have been any regular cleaning and the toilets weren’t particularly clean. There was food in the sinks when we went to wash up. The wash basins in the Mens toilets had no hot water, the hot taps didn’t work, the cold taps were just a trickle. At £38 per night this was the most expensive site we’ve stayed on and we would have expected much cleaner facilities for the price. The reception was locked when we arrived and was locked whenever we went past it so we didn’t see any member of staff during our stay.
There seemed to be Wi-Fi available, but we weren’t sent the password and couldn’t find a member of staff to ask for it, so we’re unable to use it.

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.
