Can anyone recommend a nice site in the Peak District?

Hi, have you had a look on http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
Click on site search then add a town (e.g. Buxton) or just type in Derbyshire. Then look throught the list. Most have a link to the campsites web site. :ok

Heathy Roods Farm in Butterton. Very close to the manifold valley where you will find a nice flat cycle path through the valley, wetton mill cafe and thors cave.

last time we were theres, about 2 years ago, it was just £3 pppn. Local pub serves nice ale though the food was just average, but that was a while ago.

You may already know but there are great cycling paths on the old railway lines. Tissington and Peak trail

I'd also strongly recommend this walk from Hartington http://www.snapthepeaks.co.uk/Walks/Wol ... fscote.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or a visit to Dovedale

Additionally the site behind Ye Olde Royal Oik in wetton is nice
