Can anyone recommend a camp site in the peak district that allows a camp fire. Can't seem to find any information at all. If you know of, or have seen a camp fire lit, please let me know.

Little Green Street Farm in Alport near Youlgreave allows camp fires.

It's basically a field, 1 toilet and shower and thats it. They charge about £3 a person. campers and tents only.

I am going next weekend and will get the proper address and a phone number to post.

cheers morrisbob and banchee 

     sounds good would it be o.k for six to ten v.w campers and a couple of tents in october and is there a pub near too thanks bonze  

Should be suitable. there is only one toilet and shower so it's really only suitable for a weekend.

The nearest pubs are in Youlgreave (theres a choice of  five) just under a mile away by road, a lot closer if you walk along the river.

It's shown on the OS Explorer Maps. They don't take booking.

I am going to stay on Friday night and will get full details then, but as I am on my way to Scotland I won't be able to post details until I return on 10th Oct.

Thanks a lot some of the club fancy that ,think we will give it a go, have map ,only about 1 hr from here for us, will take beers and logs for the evening and try the pubs as well. enjoy scotland

Hope you have a good time.

The OS Ref for the site is SK224637. Its on the road out from Alport, there is just a small sign at the entrance that is very easy to miss if theres no one else there. As I said it's just a field. One tap, One toilet/shower.The fires are allowed in a couple of pits on the site. You may not see the farmer as he seems to collect money via an honesty box on the barn wall or come round in his Landrover.

As to pubs I recommend the one oppersite the chuch.
