Woodland Caravan Park is a serene getaway nestled in 10 acres of natural woodland within the Snelston Hall Estate. Catering exclusively to adults aged 18 and above, this park provides a peaceful retreat for discerning guests seeking a quiet and relaxing holiday amidst nature's embrace.

As the name suggests, the park offers a woodland setting where all pitches are strategically placed among the trees. While this guarantees a tranquil atmosphere, it also means that pitches may not be bathed in sunlight throughout the day, adding to the rustic charm of the experience.

Conveniently located just 2 miles south of the picturesque market town of Ashbourne, Woodland Caravan Park is within easy reach of numerous cultural and outdoor activities. Proximity to the stunning Peak District makes this park an ideal base for walkers, cyclists, and nature enthusiasts, offering convenient access to the area's natural beauty and attractions.

Accommodating a total of 50 well-placed hard standing pitches suitable for touring caravans, motorhomes, and trailer tents/folding campers, this park ensures a comfortable and enjoyable stay amidst the woodland ambiance.

** Unfortunately, tents are not accepted. **

Facilities at Woodland Caravan Park are designed to enhance guest’s holiday experience. Modern heated toilet and shower facilities are meticulously maintained for cleanliness, with free showers, hairdryers in the ladies' washroom, and electric shaver points in the gent's washroom provided for convenience. Additionally, a modern accessible disabled toilet and shower room cater to guests with specific needs.

Laundry facilities include a washing machine and tumble dryer (charges apply), along with an iron and ironing board for added convenience. Guests can also utilise a microwave oven and enjoy a book exchange service during their stay. For outdoor enthusiasts, a secure one-acre dog exercise area is provided, complete with shaded spots, ensuring a comfortable and safe environment for your four-legged friends.

One of the highlights of staying at this park is the opportunity to connect with nature and observe diverse wildlife. From squirrels and pheasants to various bird species, the park's natural setting offers a delightful spectacle for nature lovers. The changing seasons also bring out the beauty of the woodland, providing a unique experience throughout the year.

Beyond the park's boundaries, guests can explore the southern end of the Peak District and the charming town of Ashbourne, known as "The Gateway to the Peak District." The area boasts a wealth of attractions, including historic market towns, scenic trails for walking and cycling, and renowned stately homes such as Chatsworth House.

An onsite information point offers valuable insights into local attractions, walking routes, cycling trails, and dog-friendly destinations, ensuring that guests can plan memorable outings during their stay.

Beautiful site, fantastic staff

Overall a fantastic site, the only down side that is that our unit is 22ft long and trying to shunt it into the small pitches was a little challenge (we had to do this with a twin axel with no motor movers) but other than that the toilets and showers were spotless, the dog play area is absolutely amazing 🤩 it’s really a very peaceful and pleasant experience

Calm Oasis In Woodland

Fraser, Catherine - 15/08/2026

We had a very relaxing break at Woodland Caravan Park. It’s a beautiful setting amongst the trees providing dappled sunshine and enough shade on hotter days. A real ‘get away from it all’ chilled environment. We came here for a relaxed break, intending just to relax and re-charge and it was perfect for this. The facilities were always spotless with hot showers and lovely little washing up area. The information room/laundry room was extensive, including a substantial wall of DVD’s to borrow, lots of useful leaflets and maps and a handy kitchen area with a microwave/air fryer which again, was spotless. Electric hook up only, with plenty of fresh water points close by. We felt that the campsite was excellent value for money. Ruth and David were so welcoming and friendly, were always there for any advice about the surrounding area and they went above and beyond with any additional help. A big thank you to them for a lovely break in their beautiful campsite and we look forward to returning.

Adult only site within a lovely wooded area.

Oldershaw, Laura - 14/08/2026

Loved the location of this site in the woods. Spacious, level pitch and spotlessly clean shower facilities. Owners are very welcoming and friendly. We loved the option of a linked weekend and took advantage of this over the summer which gave us two lovely short breaks as we only live an hour away. Easy to access off the A515 too. Looking forward to returning for a third visit next year all being well.

Gem of a site!

Benson, Linda - 14/08/2026

This is a lovely adult only site set amongst pine trees. Upon arrival we received a warm welcome from the owners and we were shown to our pitch. We had booked a pitch without and awning and it was still really large - we were able to pitch our van how we wanted to which was nice. The facilities were good and spotlessly clean at all times of the day. The fenced dog walking area was in the shade all day which was great during the heatwave as was the van so it was lovely sitting out in the dappled sunlight. At reception they stock essentials and lovely local cakes, ice cream and soft drinks, all reasonably priced too. There are walks from the site along country roads and footpaths, some of the ones we did were nice but a little overgrown in places. Lots of places to visit just a short drive away too. We had a great stay at the site and will definitely book again.

Woodland Retreat

Millar, Shelley - 14/08/2026

A lovely adult only site located in woodland. We cycled into Ashbourne (a couple of hills) which has lots to offer. There are also numerous walks starting from the site. The facilities are spotless with a shower block, dog walk area, pot washing and small reception/shop. Nothing was too much trouble for the owners - thank you!

First time in our campervan

Allen, Chris - 13/08/2026

We chose Woodlands as our first experience of staying in our new campervan. It wasn’t too far from home but far enough to feel we had gone away. The aim was to try everything out and make sure we knew what we were doing. Have to say we learnt lots over 2 nights away which will hopefully keep us in good stead in the future.Have to say we couldn’t have chosen a better venue. Lovely owners and amazingly clean facilities in a lovely quiet setting which has been well thought out. We deliberately wanted an adults only site with having a dog who can be reactive but she absolutely loved in and behaved impeccably. If you want to just get away and enjoy peace and quiet we thoroughly recommend Woodlands. We will definitely be back in the future!
