  • 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).

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Fabulous clean free showers and well maintained facilities

Really freindly relaxed owners. always happy to help.

Huge space - to ensure capacity is always managed and there’s plenty of space to enjoy them fabulous views.

Perfect location - to be able to walk in such beautiful scenery without the need for the car is very peaceful.

Good facilities put on in summer Ie pizza van bar etc good touches.

Disliked - small but I think pricing of the pop up bar should be reviewed.

- also the shop pricing could also be reviewed.

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Large relaxed site, informal pitching, great views and good local walks. Dog friendly. Quiet after 11 pm. Nice area with picnic benches and at weekend vans selling pizza,snacks and booze. Breakfast too.

Disliked Block was spotless but probably insufficient for such a massive campsite on a busy weekend. Had vehicles moving close to it with no signage or speed control

Non-electric grass touring pitch

Liked Lovely location. Good walks from site

Disliked Insufficient facilities for the amount of people. Big queues for the ladies toilets and then no toilet paper. The camping fields were like a massive ghettos. Hard to find a flat spot and certainly not quiet. Very disappointing.

From the manager: Hi Tracey, sorry our campsite wasn’t up to your standards and you thought it was too busy. What can I say if you ever run a business as successful and as popular as ours being busy will be a problem you will have. Keep smiling 😊

Open fields and choice of pitches…

Liked Open fields and choice of pitches
Location very nice

Disliked Although clean, for size of site more
toilet and shower block facilities should be available.
Lack of bins (including dog waste bins) around site.
Shop stock extremely limited, do not except to stock up on essentials eg.milk

From the manager: Hi Georgina, thanks for your review, you are slightly more positive than your friend you pitched with she was a 2/10 sorry we sold out of a few essentials this weekend. I am in talks with Tesco to get a franchise on site but it’s not looking promising. We have a large skip you can dispose of your mess near the entrance which has worked pretty well for the last 20 years 😊

Great facilities, spacious pitches, lovely views

Liked Lovely campsite where you can pitch up wherever you like with gorgeous views. Facilities were clean and had everything needed, the bar and pizza van were a fabulous addition! 10 mins to Bakewell with lots of lovely villages and walks nearby.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked The facilities are lovely, really clean and well stocked. Plenty of toilets and showers so there’s always a free cubicle. The kitchen is great, with fridge, freezer and charging points. Pitches are lovely and spacious, lots of woodland for the children to explore safely.

Disliked A small comment to various bits of rubbish and litter around the campsite. I think it could have been cleaner in the woodland areas.

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.
