Camp in the Dales, ride in the morning
Callow Top is around 20 minutes drive from Alton Towers, so you can do the park for the day and come back to open countryside rather than a car park.
Our grass pitches are roughly 59ft x 30ft (18m x 9m) with no electric hook-up, and there is plenty of room for children to run around without being pitched too close to your neighbours. Small campervans are welcome on a grass pitch, and you can bring your own fire pit as long as it is raised off the ground and covered with a mesh grill. There is a two night minimum at weekends, longer over bank holidays, and a £35 per pitch deposit confirms your booking.
