I'm booked into a Caravan Site in Edale, Derbyshire.  I know Edale quite well from walking trips where we used to have trouble getting a coach to it.  We could not get a coach over and around the sharp bends at Townhead Bridge (near Hope) and the steep road that goes over from the Mam Tor side was not ideal either.

Was wondering which way people went with a caravan to get into Edale.  I fancy the Townhead Bridge way but need a little reassurance that I can get a 2ft (inc A-frame) caravan and car over the bridge and the right angled corner that follows it.

Thanks,

Dale

I dont think the MamTor road is open to traffic any more.

Edale, memories, camping in tents, going Friday night straight from work and coming home Sunday. ( always had sunday lunch at the pub )

Last time must be 10 years ago, the area is wonderful,

We used the campsite at the top passed the visitors centre, although this was a very narrow road, the post office at the very top across from the pub was owned by Mr + Mrs Cooper, and they had the campsite at the back, many caravans used this,

Went into Castleton for the caves, and shopping, and walked from the campsite to Jacobs ladder,  I remeber also the Visitors centre would put on during the day film shows of the nature and walks in the area,

Have a wonderful time,
