Adults-only Peak District glamping site with luxury lodges and hot tubs shortlisted for prestigious award

A luxury glamping site in the heart of the Peak District has been shortlisted for a prestigious award. The adults-only site already boasts an impressive five-star rating from the AA.

With luxury lodges, outdoor hot tubs, and en-suite glamping pods, it is unsurprising that Longnor Wood Holiday Park has been named a finalist in the Peak District, Derbyshire, and Derby Tourism Awards.

The Gold Pennant site near Buxton has a range of accommodations and all-weather pitches for camping and tourers.

Sam Kitchen, who manages the site along with her husband Ian and brother James, said: “We are over the moon to have been shortlisted for this award."

She continued: “Longnor Wood is a really special place which is reflected in the feedback we get from our guests and how many return for repeat visits. People really feel like they can get away from it all here because of our rural location which is surrounded by woodland and has great walking routes, pubs, and market towns within easy reach as well as being an excellent base to visit the Chatsworth estate.

“The Peak District is home to some really brilliant tourism businesses and we wish all of the finalists the best of luck.”

Organised by Visit Peak District & Derbyshire in collaboration with Visit Derby, the Peak District, Derbyshire and Derby Tourism Awards showcase excellence and outstanding achievement across the area’s tourism and hospitality sector.

The awards recognise the success and resilience of tourism businesses while highlighting the sector’s vital contribution to the local economy. The 14 categories cover different aspects of the tourism industry, ranging from hotels, B&Bs and campsites to pubs, visitor attractions, unique experiences, and the hardworking people behind the businesses.

The winners will be announced at a special awards ceremony on Thursday, March 7 at the Museum of Making in Derby.
