  • 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.

Electric gravel and hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Amazing facilities. Huge amounts of space around pitches. Very clean toilets and showers. Children had space to play safely. Despite lots of people, it was incredibly peaceful and everyone had plenty of space- unlike previous camp sites we have been to.

Disliked: Nothing, it was perfect. We will be back.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Plenty of space with some great views. Toilets/showers are brand new. Shower cubicles are very large so ideal if you're showering young children. Only about 5mins from Bakewell.

Disliked: It was busy when we were there- if you want pizza you'll need to get in early and order it for later or it will run out.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Great facilities and the owners were very friendly and accommodating. We were glad to find a beautiful campsite that would welcome our group of friends and good value with very spacious fields with lots of areas to choose from. Lots of lovely walks nearby, and the closeness to the beautiful towns of Bakewell, Buxton and Castleton meant that we had a great time despite less than perfect weather. Saturday night pizza was a nice treat and a great way to end our trip! Would definitely recommend this campsite!

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.
