Lovely campsite
Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Touring Pitches Jul 2024 Had a lovely week staying at Barn Farm. Lovely, spacious campsite with lots of nearby walks that put you right in the heart of things. Spacious pitches, mobile food bar at weekends and a drinks bar.
Not too far a drive from Matlock Bath which is stunning, and Bakewell. Only slight problem we had was we should have had 2 pitches next to each other but someone was in the middle of the grass pitches so we weren't right next to each other as we had requested.
Apart from that it was a lovely holiday, weather was great, site toilets and facilities very clean, 2 pubs in the village and friendly staff.
Thank you to all at barn farm, we will be returning when we can.
Lovely first experience of camping
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Jul 2024 Stayed for 2 nights with our toddler (our first time camping!)
The campsite was lovely, we felt very comfortable on the family field. The playground was perfect for our toddler, and we loved visiting the cows/goats/alpacas. Nice a quiet in the evenings too.
We had pizzas from the pizza van on Saturday night which were beautiful!
Showers and toilets were clean and not too busy either.
My stay
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Jul 2024 We had a lovely stay and it is a fantastic site with great facilities. The only criticism is as much as we love to see them the peacocks, they made a lot of noise from 4:00am to 5:00am on Friday and Saturday night. Many people were woken up and could not sleep.
The main toilets/shower block had an unpleasant smell at times in the ladies area. It could have been the bins that need emptying more often but the shower block was lovely and clean.
Thank you for a lovely break - Julie.
Had a brilliant 2 days

The best time I've had
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Jul 2024 I loved my stay, had the best time ever, can't fault anything.
Brilliant camping location
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Jul 2024 Easy booking - rang reception to see if they where happy for my daughter and friend to stay without adult being present and were very receptive and when we checked in, reiterated that if they have any issues come straight to reception. If they wished to charge phone, can do so there.
They thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Facilities clean, rubbish collected from camping field regularly. Onside staff friendly. Woodford pizzas went down a treat.
Great site, great location

First time camper
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Jul 2024 Lovely campsite, clean and has everything you need. The resident peacock and alpacas are bonus. It's my first time camping in this place but definitely not my last. Will come back.
Great stay!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Jul 2024 Great stay!
We normally go camping where we are given a slot in a field and there are only a few tents, with more of a wild camping feeling. Having said that, we enjoyed our stay at Barn Farm, although, it can get crowded at the bottom of Field 1 because it is the only flat bit in the field. I would probably book the field opposite next time. It's also crowded on the weekend but it's flat and has sunshine a lot longer than Field 1.
The staff are very friendly and on top of things given the amount of campers. The only thing, I think needs looking into is the cleaning products of the facilities. They smell! It took us a while to figure it out, as it's very unusual. That was very unpleasant, but other than that we had a lovely time. Thank you!
Brilliant site

Best family campsite
Medium Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Jul 2024 Amazing location. So well organised and adaptive to weather. We came for the family festival and they had everything covered, even when it rained they moved the band to the barn. Games room, public fridge/freezers, clean toilets and exceptionally run venue. 10/10.
Amazing, as always
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Jul 2024 Its been 7 years since our last visit and still as good as it was back then. The place is so clean and well equipped. The showers and toilets are brilliant.
Evening entertainment and food stalls were great, cant wait to come again next year.
Lovely weekend

Barn Farm Family Camping
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Jul 2024 Great, friendly campsite!
Clean, friendly and amazing view and location!
Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2024 We stayed here with our two little boys (3&1) and it was just perfect for us. We loved seeing the peacocks & alpacas and the views were incredible!
The little play park was great for us & easy to find. We stayed on a hard standing, electric and water hook up in our tourer caravan and we couldn't fault anything.
Everything was clean and tidy, and the staff couldn't have been friendlier.
The location is also great if you want a walk to a local pub, or even some sightseeing walks.
Absolutely beautiful! Definitely be visiting again!
Great stay

Family fun weekend
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Jul 2024 3rd time staying here and it's the 2nd family fun weekend we've been to and they do not disappoint. They cater for all age groups, from indoor and outdoor games for the younger ones and the Horse & Jockey bar for us older kids 😜
There are plenty of toilets which are cleaned and restocked regularly, and also shower facilities and a pot washing station. There are some lovely walks around the area and 2 pubs just a short walk down the road.
We will definitely book again.
