Why Derbyshire is the best destination for dog-friendly glamping 🌿

Derbyshire is one of those places that boasts walks, the outdoors (hello Peak District) and therefore people with dogs. Our glamping and camping site is no different, we love pets and welcome dogs onto site.

Nearby, we have long walks, canal paths, woodland sniffs, proper countryside without feeling the least bit remote. Asda is only 5 minutes away.

PLUS, we’re not just a regular campsite. We have a choice of gorgeous glamping options, and most of them come with your own woodfired hot tub, yes, a luxurious added touch. What we love about glamping is you arrive, and there’s:

• No fiddly tent poles and wet tents to dry

• No freezing nights (all our year-round glamping belle tents and pods are heated and insulated)

• No packing nightmare

• Just fresh air, comfort, and a happy dog who can be the centre of attention the moment you arrive! 

What actually makes a glamping site dog-friendly? 🐕

Here’s our take on what actually makes us dog friendly, because, yes, we do say dogs on leads. That’s not begrudgingly to ‘allow’ dogs on site. It’s for the convenience of everyone on site. When there are sausages cooking and kids playing catch - we know how excited and distracted our pets can get! Leads help keep everyone in the comfort of their own space.

However, we do have:

• 🌱 Space to walk your dog around the site.

• 🐾 Hosts who like dogs - we’ll always stop for a hello.

• 🔥 Warm, cosy accommodation where your dogs are allowed.

• 🚶 Walks straight from the campsite along the canal to dog friendly locations (find them here).

• 😌 A relaxed, welcoming feel. We like to think of Hill Farm as your home from home, and that includes being dog friendly.

Hill Farm Caravan and Camping: dog friendly by nature 🏕️

Let’s get into the juicy details of why Hill Farm Caravan and Camping is a gorgeous and the best glamping site for you to go on adventures with your dog. 

🌿 Space, peace & room to breathe

Hill Farm is level, grassy, and wonderfully open. We don’t over-crowd camping pitches across every inch of the site, so there’s ALWAYS space to walk and play. Plus, we have a separate meadow (not fully fenced) where a long lead and plenty of undisturbed sniffs can be enjoyed. 

Your dog can stretch their legs, explore, and flop down contentedly while you get the wood-smoked Ninja set up ready for a mouthwatering lunch.

🏡 Glamping that’s year-round (and welcomes dogs)

Choose from:

• Thermal-lined bell tents with hot tubs: cosy, warm, and full of charm

• Insulated glamping pods with hot tubs: yes, dogs welcome while you soak 🫧

  
  

Everything is designed for comfort using high-quality materials, because comfort and quality really are what we aim for at Hill Farm.

🔥 Camping Star-lit Evenings Made for Dogs (and Humans)

Being outdoors, all the change to routine, new sights and smells wears out our fur-babies. 

So this is a typical dog-friendly evening at Hill Farm Camping… 

The BBQ embers glow orange, perfect for marshmallow roasting, you’re wrapped up in blankets, sitting with your legs up and headrest back, looking at the stars. Keeping your fingers warm in the cooler evenings is a mug of hot chocolate, possibly spiked, but only you can decide that!

These are camping-classic moments where time feels slow and full of all the right things.

Planning Tips for Dog Friendly Glamping🐕‍🦺

1. Bring your dog’s favourite blanket or bed.

2. Pack extra towels for muddy adventures and purchase a coat, it’ll mean a cleaner, less soggy dog in your bell tent or pod later.

3. Keep a spare lead handy because if you’re anything like me, I drop them. I’m just thinking of the next dog walker who needed a lead - honest! 😅

4. Let them explore — they’ll sleep very well afterwards 😴

So… is this the best dog-friendly glamping in Derbyshire? 🏆
