We warmly welcome you to The Royal Oak, a charming country pub and the perfect base for exploring the delights of the southern Peak District.

The Royal Oak's open fires and hidden corners are a welcoming sight for all tired walkers craving a well earned pint, families on a day out in search of a friendly haven or 'Foodies' after some great homemade dishes. Proper food, generous portions and sensible prices are what make The Royal Oak so special.

We take great pride in offering a very traditional style of hospitality complete with cosy pub atmosphere, good company, cask-conditioned ales, a fine selection of wines and a menu of hearty English pub food. Open every day from 12 noon until 9pm means you can sit back and enjoy the unique atmosphere at 'The Oak' anytime.

For those who'd like to linger longer, the choice of camping accommodation is available.

The Royal Oak camping grounds are situated to the rear of the pub. The picturesque campsite has 20 pitches on two levels with direct access to the Tissington and High Peak Trail. Access to the camping field is via a standard five-bar gate. The campsite has a unisex toilet and shower block with inside and outside washing up facilities - please note there is no electric hook up or hard core standing.

Please note we do not allow motorhomes we only accept small camper-vans. Nothing larger than a VW camper will be admitted on to the site as we cannot guarantee access due to weather conditions. On bank holiday weekends we do have a minimum stay of 3 nights.

A little pricey

Shaw, James - 11/09/2024

No complaints about the facilities but £40 for a the superior pitch (just an extra pit and picnic bench) is a little expensive. The pub food was very nice though so would return for food for sure

Lovely extended weekend

The campsite is well organised with spacious pitches. We booked a super sized pitch with a bench and fire pit. Management were friendly and calm. It is a small site with adequate amount of showers and toilets which are kept well. Fabulous thanks. Iain.

Great but miss the old pies!

Great campsite. Great location for a run and bike ride the morning after. Good food but miss the old beef and Stilton pie. The new ones aren’t a patch on them. We used to come just for the food!

Lovely short stay

Ellison, Lee - 04/09/2024

Brilliant site. Only stayed for 1 night. Very friendly staff on site, checking in on us in the morning to make sure we were okay. Facilities clean and perfect location right on the trail. Perfect for walking and cycling. We didn't get chance to visit the pub due to only being here a short while, but worth a look next time! Will be back at some point for definite.

Calm, flat campsite, perfect location for cycling.

Grafton, Mark - 29/08/2024

5

After a long day cycling, there's nothing better than coming back to a warm shower, a few pints, good grub and a flat pitch to sleep on. The Royal Oak ticked all those boxes. My friends and I were on a two day cycling trip, the location was perfect for riding both sides of the Peaks. Although this was a family site, being small, it was pretty quiet and calm. Will definitely stop here again.

One Night Stay

Wheater, Matt - 27/08/2024

I thought the site was lovely. The only thing i was very disappointed with was the pub restaurant. I thought the menu did not have much choice and was very overpriced for what you got. This is a complete change from some years ago when we ate with family and friends on a regular basis

Fine Food, Cycle Path and Hot showers

Excellent 3 days at the site. My son had "the best chicken burger of his life", cycled up and down the trail every day and also had a fantastic walk in the Lathkill dale. Looking to book another few days before the year ends.
