Gullivers Kingdom at Matlock Bath. Ikea just down the road, McArther Glen a bit to the North. New shopping centre in Derby (v expensive parking) High Peak Trail is great for cycling-hire or use your own . Get on at Ashbourne or Middleton Top.Carsington Water is good for walking ,cycling, bird watching and has a really good play area .

Hi

You can walk into Ripley from the site and buy some fab ice creams and then go into Ripley castle for a guided tour which is brilliant and then there are the grounds to walk round which are quite extensive.

Knaresborough is a nearby town with a nice market place, a castle,  and a superb off-licence with an extensive range of good beer and whisky!

We hired a boat at Knaresborough on the River Nidd and we had a day out at Lightwater Valley when we were there. There is also Ripley Castle within walking distance and the local pub although we thought it was a bit posh and sat outside with our waterproofs. Ripley campsite is a lovely campsite with plenty to do on site includng a small indoor pool.
