  • Premium family-run site on a farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Far-reaching views 25 minutes' drive from Buxton and Bakewell
  • Friendly staff; cosy, dog-friendly country pub 10 minutes' walk
There's a warm welcome all around at Hartington Hills, a farm site with helpful, friendly owners on hand. This family-run site is just under two miles from the Derbyshire village of Hartington, where there are several pubs and a few places to grab coffee. The farm is in the Peak District National Park, so it's in an excellent spot for those who want to set out on walking or cycling trails; cast your gaze a little wider and you can also easily hit stately homes, museums, activity centres and caves within half an hour’s drive. Buxton and Bakewell are both 25 minutes' drive away, and it may not have escaped the kids’ notice that the Alton Towers theme park just happens to be about half an hour's drive away… The site’s facilities include a launderette and modern bathrooms with underfloor heating, hot showers and a large wetroom for guests with reduced mobility or families hosing down wriggly kids. There is also a dedicated space for canines to let off steam.

What customers say

Clean facilities, lovely views, and friendly staff are highlights. Spacious pitches and a good shop add to the peaceful vibe. A few mention iffy Wi-Fi and slightly sloping pitches. Highly recommended!

 Andrew S. 4 reviews

Fully-serviced hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked An excellent campsite that I can not fault, the whole setup is very well kept and maintained to a high standard.
Toilets and showers are one of the best we've seen on a campsite, very clean and modern.
There's a small shop that keeps the essentials you'd need, also a coffee shop/bar that's open between certain hours. Fire pits and logs are available at a fair price, we used it for the 3 nights we stayed. Local pub 0.6 miles away that serves very decent food and beer.
I'd recommend giving this campsite a try.
Owners are very friendly and knowledgeable of the area .

Thanks for a great long weekend.

Electric grass tent pitch

Liked Beautiful site and great facilities. View was amazing!! Spotless and brilliant showers!

Disliked Sometimes others on the site didn’t always stick to the times such as no noise etc after 10pm. May only be a one off but for those staying in tents it can be deafening

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your review, we do provide a phone number to every guest which they can call 24/7 to let us know about noise and any other issues. We always take noise levels very seriously so if you experience this again, please do let us know and we will happily deal with it immediately.

Local attractions

There are walks galore to be had around the pretty Peak District National Park – some popular picks nearby include meandering along the Manifold Valley Trail from Hulme End, 15 minutes away on foot, or trots along the Tissington Trail, which starts 10 minutes away. See the world from above by crossing the treetop trails at Go Ape, 25 minutes away, or from even further above with a ride on the Heights of Abraham cable car, half an hour away. Keeping your feet firmly on the ground, there are smart stately homes to explore at Haddon Hall, half an hour away, Sudbury Hall (home to the National Trust Museum of Childhood), 40 minutes away, and the excellent Chatsworth Estate, half an hour away. If you’re up for riding hair-raising rollercoasters, it’s half an hour's drive to Alton Towers theme park; for a more relaxing ride, check out the steam trains at Churnet Valley Railway, 20 minutes away.
