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.

Lovely helpful staff, and spotless facilities.

Ormandy, J - 07/09/2026

Having experienced a problem with our camper van the staff did all they could to try and resolve it. Alongside the spotless facilities, accessories for washing ip etc were also provided, a very appreciated touch. The campsite itself was cool and quiet, a haven of peace in a hectic world.There was a huge amount of leaflets recommending tourist attractions, which were very helpful. Altogether my husband and I would definitely recommend Woodlands to other campers.

Beautiful campsite set in a wood , spotless facilities with very friendly owners.Can’t recommend this site highly enough , well worth a visit for a relaxing break away from the hustle and bustle plus it’s also very close to Ashbourne that has got great shops and plenty of places to have a fantastic meal.

Wow! Absolutely spotless, a friendly, wonderful place

English, Alison - 04/09/2026

From the moment we arrived, we could tell this campsite was very special, from the warm welcome to the incredibly spotless toilets and showers where we saw staff popping in to clean and tidy throughout the day. The campsite is truly magical, underneath a canopy of trees. The absolute highlight for our dog who is an escape artist was the very safe, fully fenced dog play park. Our dog had the best time and got used to going there first thing every morning. In fact, I think she was quite sad to leave, as were we!

Weekend Stay

Mellors, Neil - 04/09/2026

Our second visit to this adults only location. Friendly hosts, great amenities. The weather wasn’t kind to us but that didn’t ruin our weekend.Easy to get to location but don’t follow your sat nav or you could end up down a very narrow country lane. Close to Ashbourne and a very good garden centre just down the road. I would recommend this site

Dave and Ruth made our stay!

Hall, Marcus - 03/09/2026

Without writing to much the campsite amenities are perfect, anything you could need wash there including a great area to exercise dogs off lead which got lots of use. You can see how much care and attention the guys put into this place. Dave and Ruth are also just the nicest people, helped us out when we were in a muddle with the electric and we had to leave early the following morning but opening up the gates and sending us in our way with a coffee was no bother to them, they were just happy to help. 5 stars and would recommend this stay to anyone. Thanks again guys and see you soon

Excellent site

Curtis, Joanne - 02/09/2026

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. From the moment we entered the driveway we were warmly welcomed by Ruth who had carefully considered our request for a pitch without access to wifi (for personal health reasons). The site is peaceful and quiet with an abundance of wildlife, although the main road is quite close it did not disturb our stay.The dog walking area is excellent with a sign system to let other users know if your dog is friendly and willing to share the space.The facilities are of a very high standard with extra touches such as use of cleaning materials in the washing up area and plenty of baskets in the shower block to put all your toiletries.And then there's the cakes!! Made locally they are fabulous. Other local produce is also available.The site is ideally situated to visit a number of attractions in the area.

Pleasant site

Sunderland, Gary - 28/08/2026

We were welcomed onto Woodland Caravan Park by the owners. Dave took us to our site and showed us the electric hookup and explained the various ways we could park our caravan. The electric usage is paid for on leaving. We used our electricity as normal and our 5 day stay cost us less than £6.00, which we think is very reasonable. The facilities were always clean and tidy. Although the site was quite full we never had to wait to use the showers. The pitches are a good size and each one has vegetation on three sides. This makes it feel private but not cut off from neighbours. The site is quiet in itself but there is some unavoidable road noise. Please don't let that put you off staying on a really lovely site.

Is a Woodland site for you ?

Humble, Paul - 27/08/2026

Great couple running this site, very friendly and hardworking keeping the site and facilities immaculate. Found the site very quiet and peaceful and easily accessible. The downside was that if it rains, then the water from the canopy is very loud on the roof and I also found myself after a few days searching for a gap to enjoy direct sunlight in the dark shade. This site would have been perfect the week before in 37 degrees. A woodland site will either work for you or not.
