Alstonefield Camping Barn

Up to 12 persons can camp all year round in our traditional barn, with cosy wood burning stove.

The barn stands in a meadow at the foot of Narrowdale hill and enjoys truly spectacular views and dale walks in all directions. It is part of our 200 acre sheep and beef farm.  Although situated well off the beaten track you can drive right up to the barn via an upgraded old bridle path where there is car parking space for 4/5 cars.  Our barn is a most excellent base for walkers, cyclists, scouts, Duke of Edinburgh and school groups etc; teambuilding, as well as smaller groups of friends and families.

A Unique Basic Budget Holiday with no electric and no distractions costing £132 per night (when divided between 12 campers that’s only £11 per person per night)  

Coach House

Sleeping 2 - 6 persons in 2 bedrooms, this barn conversion is full of character and stands next to the quaint old stone dovecote with views of Wetton Hill.  It has a private garden with lovely views down the valley.

Deceptively spacious it is suited to both couples and families and has been sympathetically converted retaining old beams and exposed stonework.

Having a toilet on both levels this cottage is great for families and people with limited mobility

Each of our accommodation enjoys its own privacy with the Coach House being located at the farmstead, the camping barn is at the foot of Narrowdale Hill (just over a mile from the farmstead) and the pop up camping is over the road around half a mile away from the farmstead in a meadow directly off the Alstonefield Road.

Gateham Grange lies between three villages, Alstonefield, Wetton and Hulme End.  These villages all have excellent pubs serving food and are within walking distance (around one to one and a half miles).  We are close to the popular Stepping Stones at Dovedale, the Manifold Valley Cycle Trail, busy Hartington (famous for its stilton cheese), historic Chatsworth and The Alton Towers Resort.  We have everything you could possibly want for a Memorable holiday and its all so easily accessible from Gateham Grange.  Start planning to make memories now ...

MEMORY MAKER

There are several caves in the Manifold Valley and the best known is Thor's Cave which is 76 meters up from the Manifold cycle/walking track.  A visit here is an absolute must. Its a steep walk but the magnificent view makes it worthwhile, then head for refreshments at Wetton Mill Tearooms by the river, it's really idyllic. Great for families and for children to paddle.
