MelonAngel Posted June 14, 2005 Share Posted June 14, 2005 Anyone suggest lovely and local ( ie within an hour or so's drive ) camping venues? Not for familys mind- for crazy and likely loud shud-know-bettas... ( David - Shingalaa * Are you there? Never said Tarah...get in touch monkey features!!) Also more importantly, on way home from our last jaunt, we began devising a road trip involving destinations having rude(ish) or ridiculous names - just for photographic purposes and giggling that hurts u know... Any suggestions most welcome ( We shall be starting at Coch Castle via Scrub Hill !!!)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norbert Posted June 15, 2005 Share Posted June 15, 2005 Shatton Moor Penistone Shafton Two Gates Jughole wood Upperthong Fartown Dirty Gutter Dick Slack Butty Moss These stupidly named nearby places can be found on: http://places.jump-around.com/closest/ Also there is a camping field for nutters near Eyam Moor: http://www.multimap.com/map/browse.cgi?lat=53.3149&lon=-1.6529&scale=25000&icon=x Ask at the farm just after the top of the steep hill shown on the map just above Leam. It's cheap and you take a spade in the woods. You will spot the field it's got several old caravans on it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 There is a campsite (Farmers field with toilets) at Hope, near castleton, (I know, where there's Hope There's Castleton) It is across from the "Old Hall" pub and past the cement works. I have only been once, full of the younger end party-ing all night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be a really nice family place, but the nutters kind of spoiled it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katiekat Posted June 19, 2005 Share Posted June 19, 2005 If you drive out on the A57, you'll find lots of places that you can camp and wail your heads off - although none of the secluded places are official camp sites. The reservoirs are nice spots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
