In the heart of walking country, our Crowden Club Site is at the end of a challenging stretch of the Pennine Way. It has incredible views of the Peak District National Park and you might catch a glimpse of falcons, eagles and red kites from the Site.
• Crowden is the perfect Site for walkers in the Dark Peak region of the Peak District National Park. The Longendale Trail – on the old Woodhead railway line – passes several reservoirs and is suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs.
• A cycle route from Tintwhistle goes to Hadfield, the real “Royston Vasey” from the BBC series The League of Gentlemen.
• Holmfirth, the famous location for the BBC series Last of the Summer Wine, has several tea rooms and was originally a cotton spinning area.
• Manchester, Liverpool and Sheffield are less than an hour’s drive away.
• Trains run from Hadfield into Manchester.
• Explore urban culture and the cities of today and tomorrow at Urbis, one of Manchester’s newest attractions, or visit the Museum of Science and Industry in the world’s oldest passenger railway buildings.
• Castleton in the Hope Valley is home to several caverns, including Speedwell, Treak Cliff and The Blue John – named after the local mineral.
• Chatsworth and Haddon Hall are fascinating stately homes.
• See the noticeboard on Site for details of walks with the ranger.
• The Site shop holds provisions and supplies for walkers.
