Peace & Tranquillity


Peace & Tranquility

Our ethos is nature-based and we encourage biodiversity in our fields and hedgerows with the majority of our energy provided through sustainable practices. We have been awarded the coveted Environmental Quality Mark award several years in a row, which demonstrates our ongoing commitment to the environment, to our staff and to supporting the local economy.


The site and our facilities are accessible to all and is located in the centre of Buxton, Bakewell, Ashbourne and Leek - in a rural situation - where peace and tranquillity is assured. The toilet/shower block is underfloor heated and, to this day, has been likened to a 5* hotel. It features a generous wet room, which offers easy access for wheelchair users and for those with limited mobility. We also allow families with small children to use this.


Dogs are very welcome and we have a purpose-designed dog walk, which leads around the perimeter of the site. There are also many suitable dog walks from the site. We have a huge playing field for the children to have a good run around and a play area for smaller children. We have four mini-Shetland ponies and we offer 'meet the ponies' when we can! Fire pits are available to hire and barbecues are allowed.


We welcome you to our little paradise, Sue & Amy.

Our Facilities


Our warm and immaculately clean toilet and shower block offer unlimited hot water.

Our mantra is to keep our toilets as clean and fresh as they were on day one. 

The kitchen area also has a washing machine, dryer and small freezer for ice packs.

We also mow a large area in an adjacent field where children can play extremely safely.

The caravan and camping pitches at Upper Hurst Farm are on a large, gently sloping field, in which generous super-pitches and grassy tent pitches with optional electric have been created. All of the pitches offer stunning views over the surrounding rural landscape, with open views to surrounding higher ground.

We also mow a large area in an adjacent field where children can play extremely safely and there is a dog walk around the perimeter of this field.
