  • Family-run campsite on a dairy farm in the Peak District National Park
  • Chatsworth House and Haddon House both 20 minutes’ drive
  • Ice cream sold on site; access to Lathkill Dale via the camping fields
When you’re keen to get out exploring the Derbyshire Dales, you can’t get much closer to them than Haddon Grove Farm Campsite. This welcoming, family-run caravan and camping site has direct access to spectacular Lathkill Dale from the pitches. Located on a dog-friendly working dairy farm – you are welcome to meet the cows, horses and chickens – with views to the hills and dales of the Peak District National Park, the site was established in the early 1950s and has gone from strength to strength ever since. There are separate fields for family use – with play areas and rope swings – and others for group bookings, ensuring nobody gets disturbed on site. Facilities run to a shower block and wash room, and as barbecues are allowed by the pitches in the camping fields (source any foodie bits in the pretty town of Bakewell, 10 minutes’ drive), firepits can be hired on site. Logs are sold from the small on-site shop, which – more importantly for the kids – also stocks tasty ice cream from a local farm.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: What an incredible place!! Spectacular views, welcoming hosts and on an idyllic working farm. We'll definitely be back.

Disliked: If I'm being iver picky, there could be more toilets for the number of pitches. But I never had to queue for more than 5 mins.

Lovely location, good facilities just a bit to far from the tent.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Fabulous views over Lathkill Dale and hills. Perfect to access walking paths straight from the site. Calm with spaced out pitches. A really pleasant atmosphere across the site. It was really busy over the bank holiday weekend and still it didn't feel cramped. Ed and Amy were so helpful and friendly, including helping to jumpstart the van at the end of my stay. The facilities are clean, and cleaned several times a day, and a bit of queuing was no problem as that goes with the mainly outdoor living territory!

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Friendly owners. Handy shop. Fire pits. Relaxed atmosphere. Lovely setting especially if you camp on the back fields. Good location for local walks.

Disliked: Could do with some more pot washing facilities and other facilities spread around the site.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked: We've struggled to find a good campsite in the Peaks, our search is now over! Haddon Grove Farm is a great campsite, loads of space (even on a bank holiday), brilliant views, clean facilities, lovely owners, walks directly from the campsite, reasonably priced, don't make you book three nights over a bank holiday, allow fires and sell firewood, it's pretty perfect!

Disliked: Could maybe do with a few more toilets and showers, we were there over the bank holiday and there were queues at times but it was pretty busy on site (as you'd expect on a bank holiday)

Local attractions

Scenic walks are to be had along the namesake river in Lathkill Dale, where you can stride out towards Lathkill Head Cave (an hour and 20 minutes’ walk) or marvel at the clear springs at The Blue Waters near the peaceful village of Over Haddon (35 minutes). For a slightly longer ramble, Arbor Low Stone Circle and Gib Hill Barrow (90 minutes) reward with prehistoric monuments and ancient burial mounds. Combine your stroll around the verdant grounds at Chatsworth House with a guided tours of the mansion’s ornate rooms packed with priceless antiques, or take in the Elizabethan Walled Gardens at Haddon Hall (both 20 minutes’ drive) after you’ve admired the tapestry collection and medieval chapel. For an insight into Peak District heritage, visit the bijou Eyam Museum (also 20 minutes) in the famed ‘plague village’ to learn the story of the Bubonic Plague of 1346–52, or have a wander around the deserted remains of Magpie Mine (five minutes’ drive), which was the last working lead mine in Derbyshire and closed in 1958.
