See all 1 photos
  • Dogs welcome

A roomy, sheltered Club site at Cotton, around a mile from Alton Towers and a few miles south of the Peak District National Park. Some pitches look out over the countryside. It is open from late March to late October.

Grass and hardstanding pitches come with or without electric, plus super service pitches with water and drainage and jumbo grass pitches for big outfits. There is a shop, play area, ball games area, laundry, dishwashing and a motorhome service point. All grass pitches slope, so bring levelling ramps and chocks, and approach from the north rather than through Cheadle if towing.
