Remote barn in Dovedale offering budget accommodation
Located on a working farm near Alstonefield on the Derbyshire Staffordshire border, Alstonefield camping barn is near Dovedale, Hartington, Leek and Ashbourne. A perfect base to visit Alton Towers or spend the day exploring the wonderful Manifold Valley with a short climb up to the very popular Thor's Cave, then treat yourself at the nearby Wetton Mill Tearooms.
The barn stands in a meadow, off the beaten track, and has phenomenal views. It is great for quiet parties (but not stag and hen), friends get-togethers, team building events and has on numerous occasions been used as a small film location. The barn welcomes families, couples wanting to get away from it all and adventure groups.
The barn is close to Manifold and Tissington off road trails for cyclists, Ramshaw Rocks for climbers and for those who enjoy water sports it is a 20 minute drive from Carsington Water. Also ideal for walkers, schools, DofE and scouts. Perfect for star gazers!
This is camping in the comfort of a remote cosy barn. You need to bring usual camping equipment including camping mats or blow up air bed, sleeping bags, cooking stove and fuel, pots and pans, crockery and cutlery. As there is no electricity, you will also need to bring torches and flat safety night/tea light candles and logs for the WOODBURNING STOVE.
Sorry no shower, but the washroom (with fully plumbed in toilet and hand wash basin) is in the barn itself so you do not have to venture outside to use the wc.
Parking on site. Pubs doing food within walking distance, around a mile.
Holiday cottages, sole use group camping (ideal for D of E), and glamping wagon also available at Gateham Grange. Visit Website for details.
