The smell of rain on stone and the soft bleat of sheep across the valley — that's your morning alarm at Middlehills Farm, a proper working farm site where grass pitches slope gently and the horizon stays wonderfully uncluttered.

This one suits campers and motorhomers who value space over spectacle, who don't need a clubhouse or a dog-walking map. Tenters will find level enough ground if they scout about, and van folk generally park up and settle in for a few days of doing very little. Dogs are welcome by arrangement — ask when you book — and you're in that sweet spot of the UK countryside where footpaths web out in every direction and nobody's quite sure which county you're technically in.

Facilities are kept simple: showers and toilets that do the job without fuss. Campfires are site-dependent, so check when you arrive — some pitches allow them, others don't, and it's worth knowing before you lug the firewood. The vibe is quiet, genuinely rural, and utterly unpolished in the best possible way.

High Peak Trail

Follows a former railway line along the Derbyshire limestone plateau, offering 27km of virtually flat, traffic-free walking on a well-maintained gravel surface.

Follows an ancient lead-mining landscape through limestone grassland with moderate inclines along well-maintained paths and tracks. Suitable for confident older children but uneven ground and stiles make it tricky for buggies. Dogs welcome on leads near grazing livestock.
