About Poplars Farm Site
This is the perfect relaxing break, just for adults, and set near Ashbourne, only ten minutes from Carsington Water. Access is easy thanks to the nearby A517. There are five hardstanding pitches with electric, offering views over the Derbyshire Dales. Please note that electricity is metered and is payable in addition to the pitch fee. If you fancy going totally hassle-free, choose from three tempting glamping pods. The pods offer cosy shelter with a fridge, kettle, microwave, toaster, utensils and TV. When you fancy rustling up a treat, use the BBQ outside or roast some treats over the fire pit or you may prefer to bring a camping stove to cook up something tasty outside in the gorgeous countryside. Each pod has a private shower and WC room in the nearby amenities block. Two of the three pods are dog friendly. Awnings are not permitted from October to April, and please use green chemicals.
Camping is from April until September. Touring and glamping pods are available all year round.
Facilities for tourers include two toilets and a roomy shower, along with a washing up sink. Each pod has a private shower/WC room in the second amenities block. Free Wi-Fi is available and there are bus stops close by the site.
In the village just a ten minute walk away, you'll find the Black Horse Inn, an excellent pub serving food. There is also a farm shop in the village selling lovely local produce.

Poplars Farm is great site, I stayed in a pod which was super cosy with a toaster, kettle, microwave and utilities. There is also a tv if you feel you need it. Personally with the views it’s nice to sit and read. The pod also has its own dedicated toilet and shower a few meters away. The hosts were really friendly and gave some ideas of where you can go for walks and food. There are several pubs within walking distance. Thank you for a lovely stay.

This small site is excellent if you want some chill out time. The facilities are excellent and spotlessly clean. The owners could not be more welcoming and helpful telling us what was happening in the area on arrival. The dog walking fields are huge, this is an added bonus for our Staffie dog. Plenty of local pubs to choose from serving food, we ate at the Hanging Gate and it was really good food and dog friendly. We will be returning sometime next year.

Things to do on site and in the Ashbourne area
You can start lovely walks from near site and there are tasty local pubs where you can reward yourself for the day's outing.
Just a couple of miles away is Carsington Water, fed by the River Derwent, the perfect place to try your hand at kayaking, sailing, fishing and more. Its tranquil surroundings are the perfect place for a relaxing bike ride too.
If you're a keen cyclist, take things a little further by hiring a bike nearby and hopping onto the Tissington Trail.
Or if you'd rather not get there under your own steam, an excellent bus network will take you to Ashbourne, Belper and the historic city of Derby every day except Sunday. By changing bus you can easily get to other places of interest, too.
Many of the prettiest towns and villages of the Peaks are within 10 miles, such as Matlock and Matlock Bath, both great for days out in gorgeous Derbyshire surroundings.
Other great attractions in reach include:
- Crich Tramway Museum
- Kedleston Hall
- Cromford Canal
- Strutt's North Mill in Belper
- Chatsworth House
- Monsal Dale and Trail
- Elvaston Castle
- Alton Towers
- Bakewell
- Dovedale
