Lovely site, showers clean, hot and spacious! Need to take levellers as the pitches are a bit wonky but to be expected in the Peak District! Games room is fabulous but take some 50ps for the pool table and other games. Peacocks are everywhere and the children loved all the other animals the park had to offer!
Lovely views and accommodating owners

Lovely views from the campsite. Very sloped pitches so, as stated on the website, you will definitely need ramps/blocks to level up. Kids enjoyed the arcade room and playing in the woodland area.
Good site

Visited in mid October, site is in good location & close to village of Birchover (15 mins walk). Showers are private & very warm inside. Shop on site but at this time of year needs to be opened via visit to reception. Games room is available. Hardstanding pitches are on a slight incline so leveling chocks are required. The Druid Pub in Birchover is a great place for a drink and food " Fish & Chips" are highly recommended & the bus stop gets you into Bakewell etc. Rotor Rocks behind Druid pub is worth a visit. Would recommend.
Nice and peaceful

Good ground even though on a bit of a slope but what do you expect in the Peak District. Very clean facilities. Nice area with good walks and places to visit.

First time at this site and would definitely recommend. Set in a beautiful location. Short walk from the lovely village of Birchover. Excellent facilities and suitable for all ages. Ideal base for Matlock, Bakewell and many other beautiful Peak District villages and amazing walks and places of interest from the site and in the surrounding Peak District.

Great site with good walks and a couple of pubs close by. Only shame was that the shop wasn't open on the Saturday, which we found unusual. Toilets nice and clean.

A great site in a wonderful location. Only real negatives were that there didn't appear to be any drive over grey water drop for Motorhomes, the shop was only open Monday to Friday and the toilet block was a bit of a walk from our pitch. Other than that, would visit again.
Stunning

Beautiful location far reaching views of the countryside. Facilities were good with a choice of 3 different shower areas. On site shop, which opened up for us on Sunday as we ran out of gas. Very good information leaflet on arrival. Can't fault them at all.

Excellent site, well located for the Peak District, Haddonn Hall, Chatsworth House and Bakewell. There are numerous walks from the site the most notable are Stanton Moor and the nine ladies. Two pubs within walking distance that serve excellent food - Red Lion and Druid. We would recommend Barn Farm although we would imagine it to be a very busy site in the summer.

Site ok once arrived. Access through the village was very restricted, with narrow roads and many parked cars. Views from the site are very good, plenty of walks are available without needing to drive from the site. Facilities on site are kept clean and functional and plenty of them.
First time we visited and everything was perfect

Nice quiet site. Friendly and helpful. Directions to the site were very helpful. Only issue was that the pitches are not flat, so had problems levelling. I wish I had read the information sheet first as they provide bricks to help with this. Also, if you're thinking of eating in the local pub, you need to book beforehand.
Excellent

A fantastic site within a very quaint village. 2 exceptional pubs within walking distance and plenty of walks, places and activities within a fairly short distance to drive. The only sticking point was the security guard. After telling us that our laptop was too loud, he was extremely rude and scared both my fiancé and our dogs Other than that I would highly recommend this site!

Conveniently located for most of Derbyshire's attractions. The village has two seemingly good pubs and they are within a 15-20 minutes walking distance. I say 'seemingly', as we only visited one on this occasion. The motorhome field only has a couple of spots left and had a bit of a slope, so we chose a flatter pitch which was close to a camping field, and also closer to the toilets and showers. This field was quiet on the Wednesday and Thursday (during school term time), but got a lot busier and noisier on the Friday. The showers were perhaps the best of any campsite we have been to. Large, private bathrooms with a sink and enough space for a parent and young child to be very comfortable, with a "proper" shower cubicle and controllable shower like you might find at home, so no pressing a button every 10 seconds!
Brilliant, just brilliant

We booked for 4 nights, wish we could have stayed longer but unfortunately we have to be back at work. Facilities were top notch, staff friendly and helpful and it was quiet from 10pm to 7am. The plots open to trailer tents and caravans is great, we just wish there had been a toilet and shower block closer (maybe near the waste water building) but it didn't spoil our stay.
