    Amazing stay!!! Accommodation was stunning and host super responsive and accommodating. We will be back!

    This is our favourite place to stay. It’s located in a great spot to explore the surrounding areas. The Merlin shepherds hut is finished to a high standard and attention to detail. It is very clean, it’s got its own private garden that’s not over looked. Perfect getaway.
    Violet Blumire
    Had the best night sleep of my life in one of the huts, can highly recommend them!! It was so peaceful and waking up to gorgeous landscapes. The hosts are so welcoming and a very lovely and friendly couple! Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!!

    Wij hebben vorige week 4 nachten op deze camping gestaan. Het echtpaar dat de camping runt is vriendelijk en geeft tips voor hoe je goed kunt fietsen en of waar je lekker kunt eten. Voor de heren en de dames is er een douche en een wc. Dit was prima tot en met vrijdagmiddag. Toen stond de camping helemaal vol en waren ook de accommodaties allemaal bezet. Wij vonden dit iets te veel en het leek overboekt te zijn. Daarom zaterdagochtend vroeg gegaan en het ontbijt niet op de camping genuttigd. Het was voor ons te vol. Ik vroeg me af of ze er zelf ook helemaal blij mee waren.
    Verder alleen maar lof. Ik zou de camping zeker aanraden.

    Just returned from a really enjoyable weekend at Derbyshire Hills, Tam and Will are super campsite hosts making us feel really welcome. We rented the larger converted railway carriage which was superbly converted, it having everything you would need for a stay, from the little cooker and fridge to the lovely bathroom and gorgeous view. We also had two camper van pitches also with fantastic views and we used Derbyshire Hills really good facilities (toilet, shower & washing up area). It's a perfect quiet site with two lovely pubs within walking distance, we visited the Barrel for drinks and the Bulls head for dinner on Saturday night (so pleased we booked ahead, it was busy and food was great).

    We'll be back, thank you!

    We have just had a weekend at Derbyshire Hills and can honestly say it is one of the loveliest sites we have visited. Tam and Will greet you with the warmest welcome and go above and beyond to make your stay a pleasant one. A lovely touch is that they also come around at leaving time to ask how your stay has been and wish you safe travels.
    There are great walks direct from the site ( Eyam is only an hour away) and there are loads of attractions within easy driving distance. Most of all though is the peace and tranquility, no traffic noise, just the occasional passing glider circling overhead. Delightful, Thank you.
    Chris and Sue.

    Just spent an extra-long weekend at this gem of a campsite with family (including the dogs) and cannot fault it. We were in a campervan and separate tent whilst my mum was in Merlin, one of the shepherd huts. First of all, everything was immaculately presented and clean, both in Merlin and the general toilet/shower block. Merlin is enclosed in a good sized garden, which was exceptionally handy for the dogs and meant they didn't have to be on their leads 24/7. The views are simply lovely and whilst it is a small campsite, no-one is crammed in and there is plenty of space. It was also very peaceful - all we could hear was the birds and some lambs, which was just blissful. As for Tam and Will, the owners, they are incredibly friendly and helpful and nothing is too much trouble - we are grateful that they shared their little piece of heaven with us, because it was perfect.

But here's the thing — a slightly grey Derbyshire day and a crackling log burner in The Merlin? That's not a bad weekend. That's actually a perfect one.
Curl up with a good book. Let the kettle boil. Watch the clouds roll over the hills from the warmth of your own little corner of the Peak District. 

No agenda. No alarm. Just the sound of the fire and the kind of quiet you forgot existed.
The Merlin is ready when you are. 🌿

And that's just the start. From our site you're perfectly placed for some of the best walking in England:
🥾 Stanage Edge — dramatic gritstone escarpment with views for miles
🥾 Monsal Head & the Monsal Trail — stunning viaduct and limestone valley
🥾 Mam Tor — the shivering mountain, worth every step
🥾 Curbar & Froggatt Edge — quieter than Stanage, just as beautiful
🥾 Eyam — the plague village, history and hills in equal measure
🥾 Kinder Scout — the Peak District's highest point
🥾 Dovedale — stepping stones and river valley at its finest
Lace up your boots, step out of the door and just go. The hills are waiting.

No noise. No rush. No notifications. Just rolling Derbyshire hills stretching out as far as the eye can see, birdsong drifting through the window and a fresh cup of tea warming your hands.

This is The Merlin (our renamed large shepherds hut) at Derbyshire Hills Glamping — our unique restored railway carriage. 

Fall asleep to the sound of nothing, and wake up to a view that makes you wonder why you ever stayed in a hotel.
This is what a proper escape feels like.

    🌿☀️ Adventure on your doorstep. Just a short ride 🌿☀️ Adventure on your doorstep.

Just a short ride from our door lies one of the Peak District's most iconic routes — the Monsal Trail. Winding through stunning limestone dales, crossing magnificent viaducts with views that stop you in your tracks, and even passing through old railway tunnels carved straight through the rock. 🚴‍♂️🚇
Whether you're on two wheels or two feet, this trail delivers something truly special at every turn — from the sweeping valley views high above the River Wye to the dappled woodland paths below.
And the best part? You don't have to go far to find it. 📍
