Camping at The Hollies

50 units · Motorhomes, Tents6 acres · Buxton, Derbyshire, East Midlands

Back-to-basics camping at the foot of the Roaches in the Peak District National Park

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.

Campsites near Edale guide

Overview

Set in the heart of Peak District National Park’s High Peak area, Edale encompasses environmental beauty with panoramic views. The village sits at Pennine Way’s trailhead in Derbyshire, which is just one reason it draws campers to its iconic hiking and unique campsites.

Take a scenic drive toward Hope Valley for attractions including Mam Tor, multiple caverns, and Bamford Edge.

Hiking trails, history, and family-friendly fun await all those camping near Edale.

Where to go

Peak District National Park

Recognized as the United Kingdom’s first national park, Peak District National Park stretches approximately 1,438 square kilometres and is home to parts of Derbyshire, Cheshire, Staffordshire, and South Yorkshire. Cycling, climbing, and caving are enjoyed throughout the seasons with the infamous Kinder Scout plateau challenging its visitors to a 7.5-mile circular trail of unforgettable landscapes. With countless on-site and private camping areas in the park, campers can retire after a busy day at traditional pitches with firepits, caravan parks, glamping rentals, bell tents, or unique North Lees Campground’s camping pods. Wild camping is not permitted in the park without permission from private land owners.

Yorkshire Dales National Park

Nestled north of Edale, Yorkshire Dales National Park highlights the diverse beauty of Northern England’s valleys, hills, and moors. Visit waterfalls, such as Aysgarth Falls, and gorges like Gordale Scar, as well as intricate cave systems with unique limestone in its caves and karst landscapes. Then, take the Three Peaks Challenge and aim to summit Pen-y-Ghent, Whernside, and Ingleborough in a day, or hop on horseback through miles of moorlands. The park offers a variety of camping accommodations, as well, including family-run working farm campsites, cottage rentals, glamping pods, and private holiday parks.

Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty

Proposed to become the fourth National Park of Wales, Clwydian Range and Dee Valley AONB is an upland frontier with ancient hillforts, dark skies, and rich heritage. Less than two hours west of Edale, the area boasts biodiversity with geological lands dating back to the Palaeolithic period. Stay on-site at one of many camping and caravan parks, but be sure to check the details as only some sites offer electrical hookups and potable water for motorhomes. Fell running, horseback riding, and kayaking are enjoyed throughout the day, while dark sky stargazing around the campfire is popular by night.

When to go

July and August in Edale sees warm temperatures and little to no precipitation. Experience average highs around 20°C from late June to early September. Despite temperatures rarely dropping below freezing, winters are cold, wet, and windy. Consider planning your travels from late spring to early fall for a favourable forecast to enjoy everything the area has to offer.
