The Peak Park Conservation Centre is a non-profit "pit stop" set in the heart of the Peak District National Park, based at The Stables in the village of Thornhill in the Hope Valley. It welcomes walkers, cyclists, climbers, potholers and Duke of Edinburgh groups looking to camp, sleep and eat, or simply rest, relax and use the toilet before continuing their journey. Camping here is basic plus, with cold water taps, loos and warm water showers. The site also runs small conservation farming projects, producing honey, jam, chutney and sloe gin from its bees and hedgerows. You're within reach of Bamford station, Castleton Village Museum, Eyam Museum and Mayfield Alpacas for days out beyond the camp.
