Camping in the grounds of the 1,822 Acre chatsworth estate in the derbyshire dales was something to remember and a place we would love to return too
A Busy , but quiet campsite ( apart from the crows!🐦⬛) is well maintained & nicely laid out with good facilities , plenty of hedged pitches and helpful staff , with a nice little shop selling the basics , Full site , house & and area summary at the end of PT 2 where i visit the house and gardens

Great vid just on our doorstep. Walk to garden centre for coffee and cake is good as is stables complex .wait to see what you thought of house. And you want a bakewell pudding not tart.
Another great vlog. We passed you guys Sunday on the A11 Thetford… we were heading north… no time to wave.

Lovely vid well edited mike. We went there last year and had the same weather!
Very nice! Shame about the weather! We're off to Ashford in Kent Friday for 3 nights! Motorcaravanners Site £108 for 3 nights!
Chatsworth far too posh for fish and chips😂 we were there last summer and went around the Gardens. We were so lucky with the weather two days of glorious sunshine.☀️😎
Hello Mike and Kirsty, one of our favourite places to visit, so sorry its been raining, it annoying isnt it. The house is lovely to walk around as is the gardens. I filmed inside the house too Mike. Lovely video, thee is a walk to the left as you come out of the magic gate towards Baslow not too far and there is a coffee shop dog friendly and pub. Take care x Julie and Tony x
Mike – I spotted your mistake – Where you put the grey waste pipe is the pitches own Elsan waste point grey waste, your grey waste pipe should have gone into drain near water point – All the Super pitches on Chatsworth have there own chemical waste point, Great site only 45 minutes from us – It's very popular & hard to get onto that's why it more expensive – Glad you enjoyed your visit – my brother is a volunteer at Chatsworth House he does one day a week
Beautiful location for a campsite. Nice House to visit since it's raining👍 Graeme
Hi ya Mike and Kirsty.
Love that neck of the woods. Usually go more into peaks, Castleton etc.
Sorry you had bad weather, should tell Kirsty to stop doing that rain dance.😄
Looking at doing 3 weeks there next year, wanted to see you're opinion of it first. They don't let you book a year in advance so might not be able to do 3 weeks.
Think it's a long drive to the supermarket and shops though isn't it?
Thanks guys. Brilliant vlog as usual.
Thumbs up thumped 👍
….Pete and Su….
A site that's on my list to visit at some point, great to see it on your video 👍
Another great vlog. We were there a few weeks ago and loved it. Agree it’s a busy site, but the walks through the door in the wall make it worth it. Roll on part 2…
Oh well thats the British weather for you, but as usual you both seemed to make the best of it, looked a smashing site pitch etc, never actually been to the house, but been to Bakewell and surrounding area many times as the wife has family who live in the area, if you go into Bakewell you might find that Bakewell tart is actually a Bakewell pudding, i spend half the time laughing at the noise the dogs make, anyway another enjoyable vlog keep them coming 👍.
The Chatsworth Estate is huge. Great vlog 👍💙❤️
Lovely video Mike. Shame about the weather. It was minus 6 when we were there. All the taps on the site froze 😂 so we got drinking water from the Laundry room. It’s very popular and now becoming very expensive. However, it is one of the best sites on the CAMC network. 🚐💙 Trev
Well done for another great video. Glad you got out and about. No point sitting around as it’s a lovely spot. 💚
Looks like a nice site and the walk in the grounds looked very wheelchair friendly, think Coral would love it. Thanks for the share
Great vlog guys we were there for the christmas markets, had to laugh mike when that guy was telling you where to go and you drove off saying i didnt understand a word of that so funny, good job kirsty was with you 😊😊
Hi Mike and Kirsty.
Good for you filming the way in. Should we ever get there ourselves, I shall have an idea what expect now.
Choosing a pitch is always ball-ache for me! It's much simpler when there are only half a dozen to choose from, but it does look lovely there I must say.
I trust you had a good time despite the rain.
Cheers for another enjoyable watch.
Rob
Looks awesome spot to chill kicking back ,looking forward for more adventures,get big pitch .
Safe travels to you all . 👍 only bit rain ☔️
Meself not away anywhere,just super soaked walking our pooch.
Love you videos. We stayed at Chatsworth years ago the last time we were caravaning and hoping to go again before it is closed
I visited chatsworth a couple of times I’m from that area but a bit to quiet with not much to do I prefer Norfolk myself
Hi how did you get a discount for the house visit, we paid full price? We stayed at the Camc site. Thanks
Mike you’re an old fart like me, I can’t do anything online and that’s why I let Heather stay 😂 shame the weather isn’t playing ball this year yet hopefully it picks up soon! Even though Chatsworth is local we’ve never stayed there.
