Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

Very clean toilets and showers. Not many level pitches so take ramps and some pieces of wood to level up. Nice site shop which had enough food and camping items. There's 2 pubs in the village which are very good and do food.

Friendly and peaceful

This was our second visit to Barn Farm, we will definitely be returning. The facilities are great, the location is lovely. Our daughter and our friend's son enjoyed the park, games room and seeing the animals.

Nice walks nearby

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

Buses to Matlock 9 miles away, very big 2 hour gaps. Ours didn't turn up to bring us back, and it's the only service. We had to wait 2 hours for next one with no information! Shop on site felt was very understocked, as especially as there's no shop in village. It could stock food essentials. Toilets and Showers very clean. Nice surroundings and views, alpacas and peacocks were nice to see. Red Lion one of 2 pubs there, closes Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. Little else to do, so as you would have to travel out, don't rely on the bus.

Good

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1)Sep 2024

Overall, a good quality stay, but I do have a mixed opinion on this campsite. The site itself is very picturesque and the toilets and showers are clean, no issues with sanitation here. However, the shop was closed the whole time, despite its opening times stating otherwise. I do understand that it was the end of summer (September 2nd) but never stated that its operation was dependent on business, unlike the bar and food trucks which had been stated to not be open if it wasn't peak season. To add, the camping field was on a slope so challenging to sleep at times. Despite this, we did enjoy our stay very much and the local area including walks was good.

Fantastic campsite!

This is a lovely site with great facilities, tucked away in a quiet part of the Peak District. Very friendly staff and a super location for walking, visits to Chatsworth, Haddon Hall and many other well known sites in the wonderful Peaks.

Lovely friendly place

Been quite a few years since we stayed at Barn Farm. It is still a great site for every age. Very clean facilities and plenty of them. Friendly reception from site staff, happy to give information. Great location for good walks, and easy access to bus for visits to other towns. The two pubs in Birchover are within a few minutes walk and serve good food. We love the Druid Inn! We will definitely be returning to Barn Farm next year.

First time staying at Barn Farm, located in a great area close to Bakewell and Matlock. It was very easy to get around the local area. Some great walks close by too. The site itself was good, facilities were good and kept clean, children made good use of the playground which was kept in a good safe condition. The staff on site were very friendly and knowledgeable of the area. Overall our stay was very enjoyable and we would definitely recommend to anyone. We will be returning again.

Great campsite

This was our second stay at Barn Farm camping and we will definitely be returning again. The staff were all super friendly and helpful, and the facilities were very clean and well kept. We loved the games room and enjoyed multiple games of table football, air hockey and pool. We were a bit disappointed that the table tennis table had disappeared. There was lots of space for outdoor games, which is always a bonus!

A very special place

We loved staying here with our granddaughter. The facilities were excellent and very clean. She loved spotting the peacocks roaming around. I really liked that there were no extra annoying costs for awnings or children. The local pub was within walking distance and very welcoming. We enjoyed the local walks very much and it was great to have a bus service between the nearby villages.

Excellent campsite

Excellent campsite, mostly on a slope though. Sadly, we had 2 nights of poor sleep due to the on site peacocks loudly crowing in the early hours of the morning. Very nice to look at but just somewhat annoying. The staff are friendly and utterly professional, the site is clean and well maintained.

Awesome, friendly campsite - great amenities

Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2)Aug 2024

We have stayed here previously about 10yrs ago. This is a lovely campsite with several fields. The facilities are great (shower blocks, toilets, pot washing, shop, games room and barn area to escape the elements). They had several food outlets (hog roast, pizza and coffee shack) and a cocktail bar for the bank holiday weekend. There was lots of activities and entertainment going on for kids. Two pubs within a short walking distance. Fields around to walk dogs. We was woken early with the cows mooing but didn’t bother us in the slightest as better than a beeping alarm clock. Short drive to Matlock or Buxton and plenty of walks around the area. We will definitely be back and won’t leave it so long next time.
