White House Farm Campsite, Wardlow

60 units · Motorhomes, Tents4 acres · Wardlow, England

What a little Derbyshire gem: back to basics Whitehouse Farm Campsite is a simple site in a most scenic setting five minutes’ drive from the pretty village of Tideswell. The site’s central location in the Peak District National Park means it’s a top spot for those who want to ramble or ride bikes – several circular trails leave from Tideswell and the traffic-free Monsal Trail is a five-minute drive away. And there’s plenty more activity if you require it too, as activity centres nearby can sort you out days of horse riding, abseiling, climbing and caving. All this activity isn’t mandatory, of course – this is an equally fine location for days pottering off to local pubs, pigging out on pudding in Bakewell or taking a leisurely stroll around the Chatsworth Estate, 20 minutes away. And if even that’s too much, you’d be welcome to spend some time loafing about on site: there’s heaps of space here, and as facilities have been kept quite minimal (just showers and toilets) there should be a good serving of peace and quiet to go with it all. Guests are welcome to light up a barbecue or campfire for cookouts and keeping warm; Tideswell’s the place for supermarket supplies, and it’s also handily got a fish and chip shop and a couple of pubs for days when your firelighting skills aren't up to much.

Caravan parks near Hawes guide

Overview

Deep within Yorkshire Dales National Park sits the cosy market town of Hawes. Its reputation as a major producer of Wensleydale cheese is a hallmark of its long history in the dairy industry. Campers can stay near Hawes to explore the natural wonders of Yorkshire Dales, caves and rock formations of Nidderdale AONB, and wide-reaching moorlands and heritage sites of Forest of Bowland AONB. A wealth of accommodations including classic cottages, pitches for tents and caravans, and insulated camping pods are available in the area, many of which provide places for children to play and dogs to roam free.

Where to go

Yorkshire Dales National Park

Hawes is just one of the towns found in Yorkshire Dales National Park, which encompasses over 810 square miles of meadows, waterfalls, and green wilderness. Campers can find other small villages, such as Clapham and Malham, nestled in the shadows of Whernside, Ingleborough, and Pen-y-ghent, a series of mountains known as Three Peaks. Traverse Malham Landscape Trail and Ingleton Waterfalls Circular before exploring the ruins at Bolton Abbey. Dark night skies in Yorkshire Dales make it a prime spot for stargazing. Along with holiday cottages, campers can choose from a variety of camping options for tents and campervans, with easy-access showers and flush toilets.

Nidderdale AONB

Nidderdale, an officially designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, covers about 230 square miles of protected land. Walk, cycle, ride horseback, or make friends with a llama or alpaca along the vast landscape, which includes Brimham Rocks, Hackfall, and How Stean Gorge. From traditional tent and caravan sites to glamping setups, Nidderdale features a variety of campsites, some of which pop up seasonally. On-site holiday parks feature pitches (with and without electrical hookups) for tents and caravans, along with eight insulated camping pods. Campsites have clean washing facilities, flushing toilets, a laundrette, and play forts for children.

Forest of Bowland AONB

Just southwest of Yorkshire Dales, campers will find the diverse landscape of Forest of Bowland, another designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Contrary to the name, the area isn’t a dense woodland, but the moorland, peat bog, and winding rivers are a sight of their own. Take country walks, cycle along paths, and watch native wildlife. Accommodations include private rural retreats, farm stays, and pitches for glamping and camping.

When to go

Hawes’s peak season typically lasts from June to September, with July being the hottest month—average highs are around 18°C. Hawes and its surrounding area have a chance of rain year-round. Winters see an average high of 7°C. However, campers still enjoy the area in the off-season thanks to flat terrain and warm treats in local villages.
