Planning on moseying on down to the Peak District for trails, historic estates and rural landscapes? From the Racecourse Retreat four miles from the edge of the national park, you’ll be in for a restful retreat with delicious views and green surroundings. This quiet, rural and family-friendly smallholding is just 15 minutes’ drive away from buzzy towns such as Matlock and 35 minutes from royal sites like Chatsworth House. It is a fairly simple setup here, with spacious pitches that have access to showers and toilets, plus firepit areas for a feelgood gathering, waste and recycling points, a dishwashing station and drinking water. This area is walking and biking trails galore, beginning with the High Peak Trail around five minutes’ drive away. At the same time, tourist hotspots such as Carsington Water, Cromford Mills and Matlock Bath are within 15 minutes’ drive of the site. Just above the town of Wirksworth and the small village of Cromford, there are shops, pubs, restaurants, cafes and takeaways a short walk away so that guests can grab all the goods they desire for an easy off-grid stay. And in the opposite direction, Belper (15 minutes’ drive) and then Ashbourne (20 minutes’ drive) are some more lively calls with eateries and the likes – or there's a bigger city break to Derby 35 minutes’ drive away in case that’s your next plan of action.

Dette sier kundene

Dette er en godt likt campingplass med flott utsikt, romslige plasser og hyggelig, hjelpsomt personale. Fasilitetene er rene, og bar/mat er populært. Veldig barnevennlig med mye plass til lek. Noen ønsker flere toaletter/dusjer og har nevnt varierende vanntrykk. Mange ønsker å komme tilbake.

Likte The views are stunning, toilets always clean and modern, looks like a lot happened over the bank holiday weekend (food, bingo, etc), peaceful, polite pleasant owners on arrival, loved this site.

This is one of the only places I have chosen to pitch outward to enjoy the view as I sit in my tent.

I never had to queue for the shower, or a toilet. The water pressure was always ok for us but the site was very quiet (about 10 tents) after a very busy bank holiday according to one camper and the owner.

Close to different attractions. Chatsworth house took us 40 minutes, Matlock Bath 15 minutes, Tramway Museum 15 minutes, plenty of other attractions to see within 45 minute drive.

We will definitely be returning.

Likte ikke Be aware of the narrow road during the last fews minutes to get to the site.

Pot holes on track to the pitches need sorting. (Me being very picky - they aren't too bad and worse on some roads!)

The pitches are on top of an exposed hill so a little windy at times - I would definitely bring a better tent next time!

Honestly, the dislikes are more just about being aware - not reasons to book elsewhere. This place is lovely and I would definitely recommend it.

Likte Amazing place and mountain view, Staff is really helpful. Really clean and hygienic.

Likte ikke Nothing really. But Only i can say is, Occasionally you have to stay in queue for washroom, but it's fine if you can manage the timing.

Likte Wonderful warm welcome on my arrival. The site, set in several areas with dry stonewalls around each. The site is naturally sloping but there are plenty of places where you're able to pitch on near level ground.
The toilets and showers are good. Be aware on this visit, a bank holiday weekend at about 9am there was a queue. Lucky I'm an early riser. 5am was quiet.
Set up on site was a marquee with seating and a bar. Later I visited and got a cool pint of Guinness and a tasty burger. The following evening a fish and chip van was on site. Large fish chips with peas was £14.50. very nice. Thoroughly recommend the food served there and in the bar
It a good site for families. As a solo camper it was enjoyable. Well worth a visit

Likte Large open space made up of 3 fields so even during a busy weekend it didn’t feel crowded. The sandpit was a hit the kids and the fire pit was a real treat in the evening. All the staff I met were friendly and helpful. I will definitely be returning.

Likte What an experience for our first time camping as a young family scenery unreal simple and easy to get up and running pick your spot in one of 2/3 fields once you’ve checked in and get your tent up. Don’t panic if your struggling people are happy to give you a hand. Was fill of nice young families like ourselves. There’s a beer tent with pop up food vans That come on Friday and Saturday night and a band on Saturday night with beer soft drinks sweets and. The man and woman who own it work every hour god sends constantly there making sure everything is ok and the staff they employ are brilliant all share a passion for keeping the standards high. If you want to experience your first time away camping and your a bit nervous then this is the right place for you lots of people came with other people and set up there little camps with 4-5 tents circled and kids were playing games etc football cricket there’s loads of space. Wirksworth town down the hill 20-25 min walk is beautiful nice pubs and cafe it has a regular bus Into Matlock bath which is great for the kids arcades fish and chip shops peddlo’s and a little play park all in all great experience would Highly reccomend. Get it booked

Likte Lovely setting although mighty glad we had electric bikes. It's not called the Peak District without reason! Hosts couldn't be more helpful.
Nice surprise to find a gazebo with bar and as we were there bank holiday weekend had a quiz night one evening and live music another.

Likte ikke Only a few showers. Very low water pressure when we used them.

Lokale attraksjoner

Where to wander first? A climb to the Black Rocks (five minutes’ drive) for views over the countryside? A little stroll around Bakewell (half an hour), over its medieval bridge, perhaps to pick up a Bakewell pudding for the riverbank? The mills and canal at Cromford Mills (10 minutes)? Or onto the Tissington Trail (20 minutes) for the Derbyshire Dales, a limestone ravine and stepping stones? In Matlock (10 minutes), you’ll have the choice of spas and shopping and further out, the Matlock Farm Park (25 minutes) for an afternoon of full-on animal activities such as horse riding. There’s a farmyard with animals at Chatsworth House (35 minutes) too, but this grand place is packed full with much more to do, from playgrounds to house tours and pretty picnics in the gardens. The same kind of vibe goes at Haddon Hall (35 minutes), a medieval hall and park with tours. After some water-based action too? Carsington Water (15 minutes) is your guy, thanks to its watersports centre running rowing, canoeing, windsurfing and kayaking. And on dry land, there's cycling, walking and fishing to get your senses tingling.
