Why stay here ...
New Mills Marina on the Peak Forest canal built in the late 18th Century overlooks Derbyshire’s dramatic High Peaks with its rolling countryside, fast flowing rivers and rocky torrs. Inside the marina is a secure, all weather Club CL site open all year round with five hard standing pitches complete with electric hook up and close to a fresh water point and Elsan disposal unit. Camper vans and Mobile Homes welcome, but always check conditions before setting off.
A new, beautifully equipped toilet and shower block providing constant hot water is a few steps away. This is situated within a renovated stable block built around 1830 to provide feed and stabling for the horses that towed barges of cotton goods from the factories of New Mills as well as limestone from the nearby quarries to Manchester for UK distribution. Much, however, was transported further to Liverpool for export to the British Empire and other overseas markets. Caravanners will soon discover that for each fascinating 18th and 19th Century link to the Industrial Revolution, New Mills Marina CL site also offers them the best in 21st Century technology, including free wi-fi, key code operated electric security gates and motion sensor operated internal lighting. Couple this with pleasant picnic seating and barbecues free for all to use and we expect that our newest Club CL site will quickly become as popular as others we operate at Grove Lock Marina near Leighton Buzzard and Kings Orchard Marina near Lichfield. Full details on these can be found by clicking the links to those marinas.
Caravan and camper van owners often select sites to visit for the places of interest nearby and the small market town of New Mills certainly has more than its fair share of these. Within easy walking distance is the famous Millennium Walkway, lying almost 100’ below the town (linking New Mills, the Torrs and Riverside Park), the Sett Valley Trail, an easy walk along a disused railway from New Mills to Hayfield, Goytside Local Nature Reserve, another great but easy walk that can be joined just opposite New Mills Marina, the Torrs Hydro, a fascinating Archimedian Screw installation that provides some of New Mills’ electricity, while further afield Chatsworth House, Crich Tramway Village, the caverns at Treak and Poole and the magnificent Dovedale Ravine at Ashbourne, to name just a few are all worth a visit. The marina office contains leaflets containing more information on these and many other local attractions.
Pubs, shops, restaurants, buses, railway link to Buxton are all within a few minutes walk of the marina as are cycle tracks and many country walks.

Great CL Site
New Mills Marina
Found this great CL site when we were searching for somewhere to stop over for a planned visit to the News Mills Arts Theatre for a show. Booking was easy and all comms were great. We arrived about 5:30pm after reception had closed, but instructions were clear and info left in a safe place for us to collect. Easy to manoeuvre onto pitch, hook up, top up water, etc. On site toilets and showers, were clean and well maintained. Small washing up station and separate Elsan point - both clean and modern. Great facilities for a CL site.
No noise from marina or nearby main road. Very pleasant to sit outside van on your own pitch or make use of picnic/barbecue areas. Called in at Reception the following morning to say "hello" and received a really friendly welcome. Could not have been more helpful with ideas of where to go, what to do etc.
Canal towpath is easily accessible - we jogged down to Whalley Bridge (5km/ 3miles) and walked back after exploring and having something to eat/drink. Later in the day we cycled the opposite way to Marple (7km / 4½ miles) for drinks and dinner at a canalside pub.
Thoroughly enjoyed our weekend and will no doubt be back at some point in the future.
A great little C.L. site
New Mills Marina
This is a great C.L site, in a lovely location close to various places to visit. Ideal for walking, cycling and bus trips. We have stayed here 3 times and will probably visit again next year.
The facilities are 1st class with easy access from the A6.
Handy for exploring…
New Mills Marina
… the High Peak and further afield. The canal towpath is easily accessed and good for walking and cycling. Numerous other walks around ‘the town with a heart’ are included in a free guide from www.visitnewmills.co.uk There are two railway stations in New Mills; the nearest has frequent services along the Buxton-Manchester line.
We had a warm welcome at this super site. Facilities include a washing machine and dryer, two showers/toilets and a washing-up area with free hot water. All five hardstanding pitches have EHU included in the price. Everything is very well maintained and kept clean. A nice touch is the communal BBQ area with seating.
A great short break
New Mills Marina
This was the second time we staid here and again it was lovely. Great walking and a lovely cycle ride along the canal. We experienced no noise from the nearby units and enjoyed sitting in the open bbq area which was well mantained and got the evening sun. Hope to return soon.
