Pilsbury Lodge Farm is a small Camping and Caravanning Club Certificated Site on a working dairy farm near Hartington, tucked into the countryside between the Peak District and the Staffordshire moorlands. As a certificated site it is members only and limited to five caravans or motorhomes, with room for a handful of tents, so it stays quiet and uncrowded. It accepts tents, caravans, motorhomes and small campervans, with electric hook-ups available and toilets and showers on site, and dogs are welcome. The owners meet you on arrival and settle you in, which is part of the appeal of a proper working-farm site. You will find it just off the A515, about a 15-minute drive from Buxton and close to the pretty village of Hartington in the upper Dove valley, with good walking straight from the gate and the limestone dales on your doorstep. This suits Club members after a peaceful rural base for exploring the White Peak. Pilsbury Lodge Farm is open all year, and you book directly with the farm as a Camping and Caravanning Club member.
