  • Luxurious rural campsite close to the Peak District National Park
  • A 10-minute drive to Hardwick Hall; Chatsworth House 35 minutes
  • Miles of walking and cycling trails from site; pubs five minutes’ walk
Can’t decide between Nottinghamshire or Derbyshire? Your worries are over with a stay at Silverhill Woodland Retreats – this well-established and superbly maintained campsite near Teversal borders both counties – and in fact you can spy three more from the top of Silverhill nearby. Surrounded by countryside, it has a peaceful location and yet is still easily accessible from main road routes. Customer service and superior facilities are the name of the game here – for it has a very glitzy loo block crafted from black marble, with thoughtful luxuries in it like hair dryers and complimentary toiletries. No need to worry about leaving anything at home either, as there is a shop on the site selling camping essentials, coffee and stuff you basically forgot to pack. There are ice creams on hand too, if the kids are behaving. You’ll find a play area on site for your younger offspring, as well as miles of walking and cycling trails directly from the campsite (pick up maps in reception). You can bring any four-legged friends to share in your hikes, or restrict your exercise to a leisurely stroll down to the local pub (five minutes’ walk) for decent grub and a pint.

Liked It was very clean showers and toilets were very well maintained.

Disliked Think there should be some rubbish bins place around the campsite and the electric could be near to the pitches and not right up the other end of the camp site on some of the pitchs…

From the manager: Thank you kindly for your review - however I would like to clarify a couple of points if I may:

1. We have quite a number of smaller rubbish bins around the site, which are emptied through out the day, but the main large ones are kept near to the toilets. This is to make sure there are no bad odours or vermin near any of the tourers or tents.
2. We have a dedicated electric point for each tourer and tent on their plot.

Andrea E.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked Stopped on this site during the August bank Holiday weekend. Despite the site being very busy, it was spotlessly clean. It was busy during the day with children playing and families doing different things but was very quiet at night, so much so, you could hear the wildlife. The toilet facilities are brilliant. Went for a shower and was impressed to discover that the showers were actually your own private wet room, with loo, sink and shower, again, all spotless. Didn't have much contact with the staff but those we did speak to were very pleasant and helpful. Nice pub at end of the lane and Hardwick Hall is a nice walk away. Lots of countryside to explore.

Disliked The pitch was a little smaller than we would normally prefer, but as already stated, the site was full, so it probably felt tight for that reason.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We loved it here. had a lovely relaxed weekend with my partner and our 2 children. Nice park for the kids. Little shop on site with a few bits and bobs. 2 minutes walk to a pub on corner we only had a drink in there but food looked nice. The best thing was the toilets and showers. They were immaculate, and I have OCD. The best ive seen on any canpsite ive been too. These are very spacious nice and warm blasting showers. Was perfect weather too just to top it off for us. Will definitely be back again.

Disliked Would love to beable to have a camp fire. That's one part I enjoy most at night canping is a little camp fire. But site doesnt allow. Other than that nothing we enjoyed it.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked We can’t recommend this campsite highly enough! The staff are absolutely fantastic—friendly, welcoming, and always helpful. The pitches are incredibly spacious, set in a beautiful location just a two-minute walk from a great pub. There are endless scenic walks nearby, which we thoroughly enjoyed with both the kids and the dogs. Everything was spotless, and the toilet facilities were the cleanest and nicest we’ve ever experienced at a campsite. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

Disliked Nothing to dislike

Local attractions

Lovers of history can explore the National Trust-owned Hardwick Hall (10 minutes’ drive), an Elizabethan manor doubling up as Malfoy Manor in the Harry Potter franchise, while elegant Chatsworth House (35 minutes) has more than its fair share of opulent apartments to peek at as well as lovely riverside walks in its extensive. grounds. The fabled Peak District National Park (20 minutes) is the gateway to walking, cycling and geo-caching adventures around a multitude of trails including the High Peak and Monsal. You can also up the activity levels with climbing, water sports and caving. Weather against you? Families can still keep active with water slides and a wave machine at Water Meadows Swimming and Fitness Complex in Mansfield (15 minutes). The handsome, half-timbered centre of market town of Chesterfield (15 minutes) is overlooked by the remarkable Crooked Spire church – take a guided tour up the twisted tower to see it up close. Another pretty town worth visiting is Bakewell (40 minutes), where you can buy one of the town’s famous namesake tarts to eat in flower-filled Bath Gardens.
