Hartington Hills Reviews

A great site

A really lovely place to stay and highly recommend it! The facilities were very clean and lovely and warm. Will definitely stay again!

Lovely site

Lovely site, beautiful views, toilets immaculate, staff friendly. Definitely a lovely site, but it's one for people who just want peace and quiet, probably not for those with older children. Only one problem - we were on a super pitch and were promised a grey waste hose on arrival which we didn't get, so water spilled out onto grass, as advised by staff. However, this did create a small swimming pool by the end of the week.

Site's response

Thank you for your review. Regarding the grey waste hose, you possibly misunderstood - all our pitches have a grey waste drain at the rear - you'd need to bring your own hose to drain into it. We don't supply these. Alternatively for motorhomes we have a drive-over disposal point. For caravans, most people use wastemasters which can then be tipped into the drain at the rear. I'm not sure who advised you to drain onto the pitch as this is not proper practice - it would be great if you could let us know. Thank you, Amy.

Quick stay away

Lovely place, great people and I'll be going back.

A lovely, peaceful, clean site with beautiful views

Would highly recommend this beautifully located campsite. Stunning countryside views, clean facilities and good service.

Great site

A great little site. We stayed in early Jan 2024 and the weather was freezing, but the ablution block was warm and clean (no mean feat with all the recent rain). We both used the showers in the morning and had plenty of warm water. An excellent base for hiking. The nearest pub (the Manifold Inn) is also worth a visit, the steak & ale pie was cracking.

Fantastic site

Fantastic site and location. We stayed 2 nights, the first night was fine, the second night there was a bad storm! But will definitely return!

Excellent campsite

Excellent campsite facilities and management. Loved the underfloor heating on the toilet shower block. Location is brilliant for walking. Will definitely go again.

Lovely park

Lovely park and very helpful, friendly staff.

Lovely stay

We stayed here for the weekend in our VW campervan. It was excellent. The facilities were great and warm and the clean showers were hot. There was a kitchenette area as well. The views are stunning. We went to the local pub, The Manifold, which was also great and only a 10 minute walk away. Hartington is also beautiful, I would highly recommend.

Very pleasant stay

A lovely, quiet and rural hideaway with beautiful views from our pitch. Spotlessly clean site and facilities. Site staff were really friendly and on hand for anything. Free Wi-Fi was a bonus but unfortunately it was very sporadic for our stay and only worked about 20% of the time. For some though this would be a bonus! We did feel that some landscaping or bushes around the pitches would have added a bit of warmth and character. Overall, a lovely getaway.

November stay

Lovely little site with clean facilities.

Nice spot

Nice spot on the edge of the Derbyshire Dales. Clean & simple, would be happy to go back.

Lovely site!

Lovely little site, great location for a Peak District getaway. Spotless facilities.

Absolutely perfect

It was our first time ever camping, on my husbands 40th birthday to test out his newly converted campervan and awning. They helped us set up the awning, even giving us some stone pegs for free as we came completely unprepared! The shower block was warm and very clean and that, the shop and the kitchen area had everything we needed. Lovely little town a short walk away, as well as a couple of nice pubs. The views from the site were wonderful as well as both the sunset and sunrise. Thank you for a wonderful first time camping! We'll definitely be back (and fully prepared next time! 🤣)

Very clean

Very clean with amazing showers. Staff were very helpful.

Just beautiful

We stayed here for three nights so we could visit Alton Towers and there is not a single thing we could fault, the place is beautiful. Everything is so clean (I challenge anyone to find a nicer toilet/shower block that smells as good as this one) the staff are lovely and the scenery around you is just perfection. Will definitely be back in the future to discover more about the area as there was just not enough time to fit that all in. We were blown away completely with how beautiful this entire site is, 100% recommend.

Great few days

What a beautiful site, a very welcoming team and a great location. Lovely produce available. Thank you for such an amazing stay. Lots on offer at the site too.

Wonderful site

This was our first trip away in ou MH and we loved the place. Loads of walks, easy access to bike trails and a pub 12 mins walk away.

Super campsite

Had a great 3 night stay and will definitely return. Great campsite and facilities within a beautiful setting. Good local pub at Hulme End within walking distance (10/15 mins) from where you can also catch the 442 bus to Buxton and Ashover. You can pick up good walking trails from the visitor centre at Hulme End. The village of Hartington is approx. 30 mins walk away, either across the fields or along the roadside, and is worth a visit.

Our stay

Nice peaceful area with lots of walking routes. Facilities were kept spotless and staff were very friendly and helpful.

Amazing time away

Me, my dad and four year old son stayed for 4 nights. The staff were amazing. Our cable for our camper van was broken but Matt saved the day. Matt and his partner were great! My son loved the play and grass area. The facilities and site were spotless and the fire pits were a great touch. The walk to the local pub was beautiful and great pub with great food. Will definitely be coming back! Thanks.

Thank you so much Stuart for your kind review! So glad you, your dad and your son has such a great time. Hopefully we will see you again soon :) All the best!

Lovely stay

It's a nice, small campsite with good facilities. Nice to walk from the camp to nearby Hartington. We had a pleasant stay for a week.

What a gem!

Lovely stay at this site. The couple that ran it were very nice and very helpful. Would definitely return here!!

Short break

Very nice campsite, well spaced out and immaculately kept.

Cozy weekend - peace & quiet

Having previously camped here in a tent, we returned for a cozy weekend in the van and had a great time. We were given a choice of pitch on arrival, including a quieter super pitch away from a larger family with children. We are parents with a young child having a child free weekend off, so this option was great for us. Stunning views and a quiet site, a short walk from the Manifold Inn pub. The super pitch was large, with water and electric, and flat enough that we wouldn’t have felt too uneven without levelling blocks - although we decided to use them. They even let us borrow some tools when we spotted a small problem with the van. A very nice stay!
