Hi, Can anyone recommend a quiet camp site in the peak district? I know were going at a busy time of the year (midweek end of July) but we like the 'quiet' ones without clubhouses,pools,shops & play areas etc, in fact the more basic the better?

Ive had a quick search but havent had much time to look & nothing jumped out at me!!

Thanks 

This place is pretty quiet and has fantastic walks.

Or are you after somewhere smaller?

Nice pub in the village too

Hi

We went to the C&CC site at crowden for Whit bank Hols last year, it was very quiet. Nice site with some great walks, nothing really within easy walking diestance though, you need to drive to the pubs/shops. Not far from Glossop.  There were a fair few midges about in May, close to water though as it's right by a resevoir. We had a lovely time there, our first camping trip. The C&Cc site at Hayfield is also meant to be good and closer to amenities etc

BTW the pub near the site recommended by Winhill is fantastic.  Real ale and great food, friendly staff and a warm and welcoming atmosphere.  Its the Bulls Head, bottom picture in my profile.

 Hi there is a site near Blackwell in the peak called Cottage farm, they do have a web site, its lovely it has a separate camping field, no frills, basic loos but clean, basic shop and plenty of walking in the area, look on the camp site search or in my reviews.

I love this place, Eden Tree in Bradwell, here 

Quiet, well kept, free hot water, pub at the end of the drive and village a few mins away, good walking country. THe folks that run it are lovely too!

I know it's not strictly the Peak district but am a bit biased at recommending it as it belongs to my cousin http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=5884

It's a nice pub,

Jane
