About Beech Croft Farm Caravan and Camping Park

This secluded working Derbyshire farm in the small hamlet of Blackwell has plenty to offer - not least its location in the national park. There are 30 hardstanding touring pitches with 16-Amp electric, a water tap and even a digital TV connection for when you want to wind down at the end of the day. Campers aren't neglected either, with space across three fields and optional 10-Amp electric on a metered system.

The site is open all year round for tourers on hardstanding, whilst the tent camping fields are open from March until November.

A note from the site themselves...

Beech Croft Farm has been in the family since the 70's, John's (Dad's) parents diversified in to camping and caravan park and created the then, Cottage Farm Caravan and Camping Park.

Julie and John (Mum and Dad) took over the park in 2007 and the name was changed to Beech Croft Farm, since then put their heart and soul in to the park, investing in making significant changes but making sure they don't lose that, small family friendly feel.

Welcoming guests back time and time again is so rewarding, and meeting new guests is always amazing too.

We try to take on board any ideas our guests have, if we think its a good idea, and if they are doable, affordable and agreed by The Peak Park Authority we try our best to get it done.

Running the park is not just a job, it is a way of life for us and hopefully many generations to come!

We enjoy our stay here each year, everyone is so friendly and welcoming. The facilities are amazing and really clean. The addition of the coffee shop has been a bonus alongside the shop you’re all set for your holiday! The staff always go above and beyond offering advice upon local walks, activities and eating places. It’s location is central for many beautiful walks. Buxton and Bakewell are at short drive away (we always visit Chatsworth too).

Fabulous site. All you could possibly need! Spotlessly clean toilets and showers - the cleanest we have ever seen on a site. Plenty of hot water too. Shower and toilet areas were warm and clean at all times. They smelt fresh too! The staff were super welcoming and friendly. Great area for the children, and also separate area for dogs to exercise. Fabulous location. Loved that you pay for EHU. We actually topped up too much so got refunded what we hadn't used. Great idea. We were surprised at how little the electricity cost, especially as we had our heater on quite a bit. A great site. 100% recommended.

Walkers are spoiled with access to the Pennine Way on its historic route - it'll take you on a real journey. Plus, you can hire a bike just outside of the site entrance for The Monsal Trail, which is much loved as a traffic free route.

Settled in between a nest of bubbling spa towns, you're in place to see why they became so famous! And there are market towns all around with charming streets, quirky cafes and more. Make time for Buxton, Bakewell, Matlock, Ashbourne and Leek to get the full experience.

Don't miss the fun of underground tours in Poole's Cavern, Buxton, either!

Other tempting options for a day out include:

  • Chatsworth House and
  • National Trust's Calke Abbey
  • Hardwick Hall
  • Kedleston Hall
