About Damside Campsite

Tucked into the Derbyshire hills near Buxton, Damside Campsite offers a proper back-to-basics escape on working farmland. The setting is genuinely spectacular – think rolling moorland views and direct access to walking trails that make this a paradise for hikers and their dogs. Campfires crackle under the stars, barbecues sizzle come evening, and there's enough space for larger family tents without feeling cramped.

Facilities are deliberately simple: portable loos, a washing-up area, and car parking right by your pitch. It's wild camping in spirit but with just enough infrastructure to keep things civilised. The remote feel is part of the appeal, though Buxton's shops, pubs and restaurants are close enough when you need them. At around £20 a night for non-electric grass pitches, it's excellent value for anyone wanting genuine countryside immersion without the frills.
