Uppertown Farm has plenty to recommend its location - as the closest site to Carsington Water's visitor centre, which is ideal for water sport fans. It's also a quick 10 minute drive from the southern Peak District for top days out. And if you don't want to go too far, there are dog friendly walks and a cosy pub very close by. Relax at this back to basics spot and be sure to bring your own facilities with you.
The site offers excellent views of the reservoir and includes a spacious rally field which is large enough for weddings, events and gatherings - with room for 60 caravans. In the main camping area of this working farm you'll find uncrowded and fully flat grass pitches with easy access to drinking water. Dogs welcome.
Open from 1 March to 31 October
Flat grass pitches without electric for tents and tourers.
