  • Well-kept family site in the Peak District National Park’s Hope Valley
  • Pennine Way start 15 minutes’ drive; Chatsworth House half an hour
  • Peaceful tree-shaded pitches with superb modern facilities and a shop
Set in Derbyshire’s Peak District National Park, Hope Valley Holidays opened for the first time in 2026. It has an excellent location between the villages of Hope and Bamford in the lush Hope Valley, with easy access to the Castleton caves and climbing at Mam Tor, Stanage Edge and Kinder Scout all within 25 minutes’ drive. The site has pitches across several peaceful and tree-lined fields, with oh-so-smart heated shower and washroom facilities dotted strategically around the place, and a small shop selling essentials. The owners have put the natural environment at the centre of everything they do; there are wildflower borders around every field, and the mature woodland surrounding the site is awash with wildflowers in spring and summer. Numerous birds and animals visit too, and a quiet hour spent on your pitch may well reveal the wildlife that shares your space. Barbecues are welcome on the grassy pitches, but those who fancy sampling the Derbyshire gourmet scene can head to a pub about five minutes’ away on foot. Easy meals? A takeaway in Hope (25 minutes’ walk) will also deliver to your pitch. There are numerous cafés, bars and restaurants in postcard-pretty Hathersage (five minutes’ drive), and a well-known fine-dining pub around 10 minutes away by car.

Aaron B.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked This is a lovely site with incredible hosts and very clean user friendly facilities. We really enjoyed the added bonus of the games room, and being able to hire a fire bit when ours broke.

The location of this campsite is brilliant in many ways for local hikes, central for any Peak District activities and walking distance from 2 pubs.

Disliked I don’t think that this dislike should put anyone off from using this site, however the only dislike we had was the road and train track noise. It is not something anyone can control but can be a-bit of an annoyance at the beginning.

Claire K.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Friendly owners, lovely clean facilities. Came down on the motorbikes and more than thoughtful letting us put tent up near bikes and putting our bikes undercover, especially with the storm over easter. Really nice views all around aswell. Couldn't recommend this campsite enough, especially for our fellow bikers!

Samantha E.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Lovely welcome from owners and good amenities onsite, lots of field space
Very short walk to nearby pub

Disliked Very loud near the train tracks so would stay in another field when its not boggy

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry this didn't live up to our or your highest expectations. There was a choice of three fields available and we suggested you pitch where you like as we always do if guest numbers will allow. you chose to pitch next to the train which is generally fine. unfortunately on one night network rail undertook some works which we were not informed about. over the Easter weekend. Clearly this is beyond our control but we are sorry none the less. None of our fields are boggy as they are all drained. we do try to limit vehicles on the pitches if it is very wet as it had been for the previous six months or so. Despite the train every other review on the nights you stayed was the 10/10 which we strive to attain. we are a bit confused as you scored us 2 10s, 2 9s and then gave a 7 overall.
All the best
Andy & Gill.

If you’re keen to be out on testing hikes, it may be useful to know that the start of the Pennine Way is in Edale (15 minutes).

Lively Bakewell (25 minutes) has lots of smart shops and is gateway to the trails and bike paths of the Derbyshire Dales. Local day trips could see you going down into the Blue John Cavern in Castleton (10 minutes), or admiring the priceless antiques and formal gardens at Chatsworth House (half an hour), where there’s also a petting farm to keep younger kids happy.
