Camping in Derbyshire

Derbyshire's campsites and glamping sites cluster thickly through the Peak District, where farms around Bakewell, Buxton and Hope Valley open their fields to tents and tourers with limestone dales and gritstone edges on the doorstep. Sites like Peaslows Peak Camping and Top Riley Holidays put walkers and cyclists within easy reach of the White Peak and Dark Peak, while smaller farm pitches such as Church Lane Farm Touring and Unthank Lane Farm offer a quieter, more rural base near Holmesfield.

Further south and east, around Matlock, Chesterfield and Ticknall, the pace softens into gentler countryside better suited to families and short breaks. For those after more comfort than a tent allows, glamping options like Broadleaves Glamping, Peak Glamping Hideaway and Spire View Yurts provide yurts and pods with the same access to moorland views and market towns, without the packing away of canvas.
