1 night at Eden's Nook

Lovely welcome. Great facilities for this small and quiet site. Have the option for a cooked breakfast is a great option.

4 nights at Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

Oh my goodness. This site was simply magical. We were blessed with beautiful weather, but I’m sure no amount of rain could take away from this beautiful place. Pridie clearly loves and cares for her land. The pitches are large and well laid out, maximising privacy, it was quiet when we were there but I imagine it never feels “busy.” A fire pit is a great addition and the wood bundle was brilliant value for money. The composting loos were fab, the shower facilities basic but clean and hot! Washing facilities were great with eco-friendly washing up liquid provided. Plugs with USB in the Byre (where washing facilities are) for charging your tech (but hardly any signal - bliss.) We missed Pridie’s walk but overheard a bit of one and chatting with her she is clearly extremely knowledgeable about the land she cares for and I would definitely sign up for a walk next time we go. So many beautiful walks on your doorstep, with helpful walks highlighted in the Byre for you to explore, which was really helpful and led to us discovering some stunning walks nearby. This will be one of the very rare sites which we will revisit.

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Lovely spot to camp by the river! David came out and said hello a while after I arrived. Basic facilities but exactly as advertised

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Very nice and chilled field, quiet and peaceful. There is a limited amount of hard standing if it is muddy, plus a single composting loo

1 night at Pytingwyn Woods

Beautiful spot, perfect for the dogs, and generous with free firewood. Would definately stay again.

4 nights at White Peak Camping

The campsite is in such a beautiful area, there are loads of wonderful walks nearby. It is high up, the walk back from the Monsal trail is steep but worth the effort as the field is so very peaceful...perfect if you just want great views, a loo, sink and drinking water. There was always plenty of loo roll and hand-wash. Janice and Paul very welcoming and provided lots of info. Have booked again for next month!

Weekend Trip to Cwmffrwd Farm Campsite

We absolutely love camping on Pridie and James’ land, it was perfect back to basic camping, compost loo and shower/wash room, plenty of space and outstanding views. We will 100% be returning especially when the sauna is built! This campsite was so peaceful and welcoming! The horse and sheep in the meadows next to your pitch are just incredible! Also worth getting a box or two of wood as the fires in the evening just top the day of perfectly! If you want a lovely refreshing weekend I can’t recommend this site enough! We didn’t want to leave!

Weekend Trip to White Peak Camping

Lovely night stay. Great facilities, Janice, Paul and Matt were very kind.

Weekend Trip to Four Winds Camping and Canoeing

Beautifully located , stunning walks into town centre , wild swimming a top must to do if you haven’t tried . Already looking for visit back again

2 nights at Camping at The Hollies

The field is massive so I had loads of space! I arrived to see I had the field to myself which was amazing. The views are lovely from all directions. Facilities are clean and had exactly what we needed. Site owners saved the day by giving me a jump-start as my car battery decided to die on me! Very much appreciated. Will definitely come back.

2 nights at Eden's Nook

Eden's Nook is such a peaceful campsite..full of birds during the day and star viewing at night. The facilities are great, including the barbeque hut and Jane and Neville couldn't have been more helpful. And Jane's breakfast is delicious! We'll be back!

Stopped in the campervan for 2 nights, Snack bar on site if you wanted a sandwich,we had coffee, hot chocolate and icecreams yum yum. Short walk into the small town with quite a few shops to look around. Great place if you like walking. Stunning views.

5 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

I absolutely loved it here, very peaceful and I could sut for hours listening to the river and wildlife David the owner popped in to check everything wad OK and what lovely guy to talk to. I will ge back....

2 nights at Pytingwyn Woods

We had a lovely couple of evenings. It’s very peaceful with a friendly horse nearby and a gentle stream. Near enough to town to nip in for supply’s, but far away enough to enjoy the peace and watch the stars. We’d love to come back.

2 nights at Eden's Nook

Eden’s Nook is a beautiful retreat from day to day life, with everything you could want for a comfortable stay. I got a warm welcome on arrival and shown around the site, being the only one booked I was able to fully enjoy the indoor fire pit and bbq, the excellent showers and stunning scenery (the clear sky was something very special)! The site is well equipped with anything you might have forgotten and the hosts are lovely and helpful.

Weekend Trip to Eden's Nook

Incredible camping experience. The owners couldn't have been any more helpful and friendly. The toilets and showers are extremely clean and warm. Amazing views. Absolute pleasure staying here. Also the breakfast was perfect, I highly recommend you try it!

Weekend Trip to Burrs Manor Wild Camping

Had all you needed - showers, toilet, somewhere to wash up. Even had the possibility of a camp fire which kept us very warm during the early spring. Only a 10 minute drive from Buxton so very convenient. Also many Alltrails routes nearby for any keen hikers.

Weston Caravan and Campsite

31 units · Motorhomes, Tents2 acres · England

A small family run site in Weston-on-the Green village located with a local pub 5 minutes walk away and on site cafe. The site also has newly refurbished toilet and shower facilities. Amazing location to access Oxford city and easy access to M40 (Junction 9). Good things await for those who grab a berth at Weston Caravan and Campsite, in the Oxfordshire village of Weston-on-the-Green. For starters, space seekers should be pleased to see that there’s plenty of breathing room around this former dairy farm – excellent news for kids or dogs that need a bit of haring-about time after being cooped up in the car. Depending on where you’ve plonked down you may find that your nearest neighbours are the resident beef cattle, sheep or horses; it’s worth keeping your eyes open for sightings of the hedgehogs that often scuttle about the place too. Perhaps most crucially for those whose stomachs dictate a site’s success is the presence of a café that serves up a tempting range of freshly cooked goodies: breakfasts (no rush – they’re served all day), salads, cakes and coffees, plus cheeses, pies and the like to take away. And the crème de la crème – literally: homemade ice cream in up to 16 (yes, a lipsmacking 16) different flavours. Evening appetites can be sated with a barbecue out on the field, or trotting off to the local pub five minutes’ walk away. The site added a new toilet and shower block in 2018. And how to get to this little slice of rural loveliness? The village is just a few minutes’ drive from the A34 and Junction 9 of the M40, making it both a useful stopover on cross-country voyages and a handy spot for Oxfordshire breaks (perhaps taking in Oxford, Blenheim Palace or bagging bargains in Bicester).

White House Farm Campsite, Wardlow

61 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.
