General
- Spacious and dog-friendly 12-acre site in the Derbyshire Dales
- A 15-minute drive to Ashbourne; 40 minutes to Chatsworth Estate
- Shop and fishing ponds on site
Grab your walking boots, your fishing kit and your dog and get set for some relaxing time in the Derbyshire Dales at Blackbrook Lodge Camping and Caravanning, between the villages of Turnditch and Brailsford.
This 12-acre site is well placed for walks and other outdoor activities – the edge of the Peak District National Park is about 20 minutes’ drive away, you can pick up the traffic-free Tissington Trail about 15 minutes away and there’s a good collection of watersports to be had at Carsington Water, 10 minutes away.
And the fishing? Well, that’s right there where you’re staying – this site has both a main fishing lake and two ponds filled with carp for lazy days by the water. Away from the ponds, the main camping field is set back from the road and has space for kids to run around freely.
Other facilities on site include a small shop for essentials, a washing-up area, toilets and hot showers that are available 24 hours a day. There are several pubs and restaurants within 10 minutes’ drive to keep the tribe fed, or you’re welcome to bring along a barbecue. If you go for the latter option, there’s a farm shop about 10 minutes’ drive away for delicious local goodies, and it’s the same distance to a supermarket for any other essentials.
Please note that chocks or levellers may be needed.

Nice place but wouldn’t stop there again
From the manager...
Thankyou Jackie for your review. We upgraded you to a hard standing and grass pitch with electric as the bottom field still slightly too soft. There is no stone underneath the hard standing grass and nobody else has had a problem in the past or mentioned any issues. We make no apologies for seeing and hearing children as we are a family site. We have no play park on site as we hope families can enjoy quality time. |

Local attractions
There are so many great spot to choose from in the Peak District National Park – perhaps you’d like to go for a family bike ride on the Tissington Trail from Ashbourne (15 minutes’ drive), hop across the stepping stones at Dovedale (25 minutes) or finish up a hike by sampling the traditional puddings in Bakewell (35 minutes)?
A visit to the Chatsworth Estate (40 minutes) is a must – for the farm shop, adventure playground and farmyard as much as the house and gardens themselves – and the nearby Kedleston Hall National Trust estate (10 minutes) is another spot that’s worth a visit.
For more ideas to keep the kids happy, try the watersports and bike rides at Carsington Water (10 minutes), days out at Gulliver’s Kingdom family theme park (20 minutes) or a cable car ride with splendid views at Heights of Abraham (20 minutes).

Thankyou for leaving a review, yes we have a huge amount of changes happening, nothing that disrupts your stay, due to the wet winter, it has put us behind on our work, but this is ongoing .
There are three walks, one where you dont go on the road, and you can walk for miles, the other two are within one minute from the site, so very limited road use.
