The creak of guy ropes and the rustle of canvas under tall trees — Glade 2 feels like proper woodland camping, the kind where you wake to dappled light and birdsong filtering through the canopy.
This is a stripped-back spot for tent campers and campervans who don't need bells and whistles, just a quiet pitch in nature. It suits those who are happy to ask questions on arrival — dog policy and campfires aren't set in stone, so a quick chat with whoever's running it will sort the details. The lack of fanfare means it draws people who know what they're after: simplicity, trees, space to breathe.
Facilities aren't specified, so come prepared and expect the basics at most. The vibe is low-key and unfussy — this isn't a site with a shop and a playground, it's a glade with pitches. Anglers might note that Derwent Valley Fishery is within easy reach if you fancy a session between the rods. Pack what you need, pitch under the branches, and settle into the quiet.
Add a single landscape photo from your trip — pitch, view, sunset, anything but people. We’ll add it to the gallery after a quick moderation check.
