Derbyshire is easily one of my favourite counties in the UK.
I mean, they’ve got the Peak District – what more could they possibly need?
It’s safe to say that if you book a glamping holiday in Derbyshire, you’ll be rewarded with amazing views, great walks, and some of the best pub grub in the country.
But that’s not the only reason to book a stay here – there’s also an amazing selection of glamping sites to pick from too.
From tipis and shepherds huts to safari tents and yurts, here are 35 amazing glamping holidays in Derbyshire.
1. Mulino Pods

Similar to my last recommendation, Mulino Pods is one of the best places to go glamping in Derbyshire if you want to wake up to amazing views.
The views over the valley towards Carsington Water really do speak for themselves.
But if you want to imagine just how good they could be, just picture yourself sitting down at the picnic table dining alfresco at sunset.
Persuaded to book a stay now?
I thought you would be.
What guests say: “You have complete privacy, but better than that the views are fantastic from the hill-top vantage point and the pods are cosy whatever the outside temperature. Cooking or barbecuing was easy and the bathrooms are luxurious.”

I mean, how many people can say they’ve slept in a horsebox, after all?
There are two horse boxes to choose from, Martin Green and Jennings, both of which are set on the picturesque banks of the Trent.
They are both completely off-grid so if you want to switch off from modern life (including your phone!) this might be the place to do it.
What guests say: “A stunning quality and beautifully appointed horse box conversion in a gorgeous riverside location. Complimentary milk, eggs, bread, butter, jams, bottled water and yummy homemade brownies. I had a wonderful stay, cosy nights in beside the log burner.”

Sat at the top of its own private field, Peak Glamping Hideaway Shepherds Hut is ridiculously picturesque – and the best part is that it looks the part inside too!
Cosy and romantic, this hut for two comprises a luxurious king-size bed, kitchen, wood burner, and Wi-Fi.
However, if a shepherds hut doesn’t take your fancy, the glamping site is also home to two yurts, as well as a holiday cottage, so you’ve got plenty of places to pick from.

And even if the weather’s not on your side, you can cosy up inside and look out through the vast windows that enjoy 180-degree views.

Well, at North Lees Pods that’s not only normal but it’s actually encouraged as it’s cheaper to stay there on your own!
One night will set you back £29.50 but you’ll have to pay extra if you want to share your pod with more people.
North Lees is a great option if you want to get closer to nature as these pods really are just a replacement for your tent – you’ll need to bring everything you would bring if you were camping, except for your tent!
So whether you choose to stay by yourself or with others, you’re guaranteed a good time here, not least because of the pods’ beautiful woodland setting.
What guests say: “As it was early April and still cold I booked a camping pod for the first time and didn’t really know what to expect.

24. Poplars Farm Pods
Price per night: From £70 for 2 people
Location: Cross o’th’hands
Poplars Farm Pods are the definition of ‘cheap and cheerful’ but when you’re only paying £70 a night, there really isn’t much to complain about.
It’s a case of BYOB at Poplars Farm, meaning bring your own bedding (as well as your own booze!) but they can provide bedding at an additional cost of £20 if you don’t want to lug it along with you.
However, don’t think you need to bring everything as the pods do benefit from a heater, kettle, mugs, cutlery, plates, tea towel, washing up bowl, fridge, microwave, toaster, TV, outdoor table and chairs, BBQ, and firepit.

There are two types of glamping pod to choose from, Standard and Deluxe, with prices shooting up to £80 a night for the Deluxe pods – though I think they’re well worth the upgrade.

Price per night: From £49 for 2 people or £59 for 5 people
Location: Span Carr, nr Chesterfield
Ernest’s Retreat is home to a whole host of different pods, sleeping anywhere between two and five people – and the best part is that they’re all really easy on your wallet too.
Comprising only beds, they’re all simple inside (reflecting the price tag) but who can complain when you’ve got a proper roof over your head and a heater to keep you warm?
Oh, and they also supply a kettle so you can have that all-important morning coffee or cup of tea. Bottoms up!
What guests say: “This place is perfect for an escape into nature. Our glamping pod was more than I expected. It was spacious and had a little kettle and complimentary tea/coffee. Comfortable beds.

34. Ashover Safari Tent
Price per night: From £100 for 4 people

Venture a little further into the tent and you’ll find two bedrooms: one with a four-poster double bed and the other with two single beds.
Oh, and of course, this wouldn’t be a luxurious safari tent without your private en-suite.
What guests say: “This place is just wonderful. It’s private and secluded. The fire pit was a lovely addition too. The tent was spotless, linen was comfy and a proper inside bathroom was a luxury! We couldn’t fault or change a thing about this place, other than we didn’t book long enough to stay here!”
35. The Hut on the Hill
Price per night: From £61 for 2 people
Location: Slackhall, nr Chapel-en-le-Frith
Last but absolutely by no means least we have the aptly named Hut on the Hill that’s enviously positioned looking out over one of the best views in the High Peak.
However, you’ll not only see amazing views from your hut, but you’ll also see Nevada, Hermes and Alpha Ed, three friendly alpacas that you share your field with.
The inside is gorgeous with its kitchenette and en-suite but I can imagine you’ll rather spend your time outside stargazing around the Indian fire pit.
What guests say: “My stay at the shepherd’s hut exceeded expectations! It’s located in a fantastic place for exploring the Peak District for the first time. The hut inside was surprisingly spacious and had all the amenities I needed for a four-night stay, and the log burner kept the hut nice and cosy!”
