About the site


This small, select campsite just for adults (18+) covers over 10 acres, incorporating a four-acre dog walk/exercise field with stunning views and spectacular sunsets. Longnor Wood is located in the heart of the Peak District National Park, an AONB, with unspoilt, dramatic rolling countryside and charming villages. Ideal for visiting Buxton, Bakewell and Matlock or exploring the stately homes of Haddon Hall or the Chatsworth Estate. The Peak District campsite is in open countryside in a quiet, secluded position, hidden from any road or light. Amazing dark skies and sunsets. The only sounds you may hear are the birds in the woodland adjacent to the site or one of the many bushes around the park. And with a no noise policy after 10.30pm it truly is a tranquil park. To make the most of your time at Longnor Wood you will need a car as public transport options are limited. The small village of Longnor is around 2 miles away where there is a shop, pub and fish and chip shop. There are a range of great pubs within a short drive serving home-cooked food and real ales. Buxton and Bakewell are both around 20 minutes by car. For campers and tourers, the hard-standing pitches all have electric hook up and there are some serviced touring pitches.

Motorhome - Fully Serviced Hardstanding PitchesApr 2025

Great camp and helpful staff. Clean and well run place. You will need a vehicle to get to the local villages or towns if you have walking issues, as the roads are without pavements and in some cases quite steep. Nice place to stay for adult only stays.

Quiet site
