View on mapTissington Caravan and Motorhome Site is situated on the limestone way in the beautiful village of Tissington. The site is a one acre level/gentle slope that is open all year. It has five hardstanding pitches, electric hookups, elsan emptying point, drinking water and recycling bins as well as a well-stocked information shed with leaflets to local attractions.
With easy access and only 400 yards to the Tissington Trail, a great location for cyclists and walkers. Tissington has a selection of shops and businesses such as a candle workshop, plant nursery, craft shop and tea rooms.
The Jacobean hall is open to the public several times throughout the year. There is also a good bus service to Ashbourne and Buxton, passing through other Peak District villages. In close proximity to Dove Dale and less than a 30 minute drive from Bakewell and Matlock, we are a good base for attractions such as the heights of Abraham, Carsington Water and Alton Towers. Booking is essential.

Simple to book with full details sent by return of text. Easy to access site which has 5 wide hard standing level pitches. Limited services but has EHU, water and toilet cassette emptying point. Quiet rural location. We would firmly recommend this site.
