  • Back to basics Peak District site with a view over Millers Dale
  • A mile to the Monsal Trail; 15 minutes' drive to Buxton and Bakewell
  • Farm shop and café on site; firepits available to hire
Bunk up in a barn at Beltonville Farm for a brill time in the White Peak part of the Peak District – this site’s just a mile from the Monsal Trail and therefore splendidly placed for a strolling, cycling or horse-riding holiday in Derbyshire. When you’re not tottering along this disused railway line transformed into a pretty path, soak up the views over Miller’s Dale; the park is in an elevated position looking out across this Site of Special Scientific Interest’s rock-studded landscape. Chillout sessions are of course boosted by having nosh to chomp on, so drop by the farm shop on site before dusk to pick up bits and bobs such as local veg. The site also has its own café, the Cow Shed Café, which is open every day from 9am. Rather a meander followed by a meal out? Map your way to one of several local pubs within a three-mile radius instead for supper. This is a back to basics site but it's well maintained and stretches to such luxuries as toilets and coin-operated showers for guests’ use (the showers require £1 coins, so please bring them with you). There's also a washing-up area and facilities for people with disabilities. Wood can be purchased at the park for the firepit.

What customers say

Great views, ideal for Peak District exploration. Friendly staff and clean facilities generally praised. Popular cafe and farm shop. Some found it busy/noisy and facilities stretched at peak times.

Asher C.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (four person)

Liked Gorgeous space with amazing views, staff were super friendly and helpful. The facilities were so clean.

Disliked The incline going up to the campsite can be potentially dangerous as the loose rocks caused the vehicle to roll back. Do not leave bin bags out overnight, the cat will tear a hole in the bottom, throw out STRAIGHT AWAY. No direct line to other pubs on foot but this was ok as there was a pub on the actual campsite.

Jordan M.

Non-electric grass tent pitch (six person)

Liked The facilities were good for what they were and its in a good location

Disliked They had us set up on what they call the lower site, i was told this was because it was too windy for a tent to be on the higher site even though the higher site only had tents on it and was not even half full. The lower site is a steep hill which basically makes sleeping and setting up hard work. When booking i would request to be on the higher site and avoid the lower at all costs

Local attractions

Squidged between Bakewell and Buxton (15 minutes’ drive from either), Beltonville has a nifty location near two of Derbyshire’s most popular towns. Make a foray to the former for River Wye wanders, passing by the medieval arched stone bridge, and the latter to see around some stunning architecture. Highlights on the heritage trail around Buxton Spa include the Georgian-era crescent, the Roman baths and the cupola-topped Devonshire Dome; for older buildings, the village of Castleton (25 minutes), lying in the lee of Mam Tor, has the Norman ruins of Peveril Castle to peer at. This spot’s also the gateway to the Blue John caves, the only places on the planet where the semi-precious Blue John stone can be found. Cast your eye over the largest intact piece ever mined on display at Treak Cliff Cavern (25 minutes), which also has some rather sizable stalactites and stalagmites for geologist types to gaze lovingly upon. Those aiming to give their walking boots a good workout here have plenty of choice: it's well located not just for the Monsal Trail and Millers Dale but also Chee Dale, Tideswell Dale and Winnets Pass.
