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.

Second Visit

Fear, Emily - 27/09/2024

Great priced pitches, toilets and showers are clean, great place for walking as it is on the Tissington Trail plus there is a public footpath to another pub that has sports on the TV and pool tables. Lovely food at the pub, but a booking is essential as it's very busy but also dog friendly. This is our second stay, would recommend for a night away.

Tissington Trail Walk

Laurent, Jean Pierre - 17/09/2024

I stayed at the campsite at The Royal Oak after walking the Tissingom Ashbourne Trail from Ashbourne. The staff were very friendly and nk nknk helpful when I booked in for my camp for the night. The camping pitch was level and spacious and it had a path which conveniently led directly to the High Peak Trail. The shower and toilet were a short walk from the pitch and were spotlessly clean. I booked a table in the restaurant for my evening meal and I had lamb's liver and mash followed by sticky toffee pudding and custard. My complements to the chef, both dishes were delicious. The only downside of my stay was that I misplaced my trekking poles and I had to change my walking route the next day. I think that I had one Guinness too many. I will definitely be visiting again. Thank you. Jean Pierre Laurent.

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

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!

Barton, Robert - 04/09/2024

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!
