About the site


A great location for exploring the southern area of the Peak District. Enjoy days on scenic walks along the Tissington Trail, take a dip in the onsite heated swimming pool, or visiting top nearby attractions like Alton Towers! Tent campers can choose between non electric and 10 amp electric grass pitches. For caravans, campervans and motorhomes, there is the option of 10 amp electric grass pitches, or 16 amp electric hardstanding pitches. All measure 7m x 5m and allow up to six guests. Or, you can ditch the tent pegs and opt for a stay in one of the site's cosy camping pods. Sleeping up to four, the pods included a double bed and bunk bed, plus heating, electric and lighting. Nearby you will also have your own self contained toilet, shower and washing up area. Bedding can also be hired as an extra. For evenings onsite, you can enjoy a fire pit or BBQ, just please ensure they are raised from the ground. Four-legged friends are welcome too, with up to two permitted per pitch or pod. There is even a specific dog walking area for them to stretch their legs! The site is also home to a range of holiday homes.

Pods are available from 7th March, pitches from the 21st March. The site closes 3rd November.

Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent PitchesApr 2025

We stayed here on 23rd April for 2 nights. It's a beautiful, well maintained site. We were tent camping and given a perfect spot adjacent to the play park, which was ideal as we could easily monitor our 3 children at the play park whilst setting up. The pitch was clean and spacious, toilets and showers were close, which was perfect, as were the water and the waste. We were welcomed at reception and shown our pitch on a map, with the male marking the route and facilities out on the map for us and a brief explanation of how to pitch, and a guidance sheet as well, which is good as I'm not great at taking in a lot of different bits of information at once! We were informed that we could come to the reception to book the swimming pool whenever we were ready, and told where it was. We booked the next morning and it was easily accommodated. The pool was nice and clean as were the changing areas. The shower is not very powerful but nice and warm. There were only a few others swimming for the hour we booked so plenty of space as we stayed in the shallow end with our children. It was a nice addition to have the pool and was a hit with our children too. We loved the peaceful and beautiful scenery and enjoyed exploring, we took the Tissington trail which was easily accessible form the park entrance and very picturesque, we took some amazing photographs. Will certainly come again.
