Single Axle Caravan - Electric Grass Touring PitchesJun 2023

A beautifully kept site. Tranquil with good facilities which are exceptionally clean. Good local pubs in the beautiful village of Birchover. Local walks are interesting and full of wildlife. There are separate areas for caravan pitches and tents. Huge fields accommodate the brilliant DofE award students' camping expeditions, who are always fun and helpful.

Lovely spot but sleep disturbed by peacocks!

Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4)Jun 2023

A lovely campsite with good play facilities for children. Limited options locally for buying food/drink - unfortunately the pizza vans/bars etc advertised weren't there for our visit (a weekend near midsummer). Our main issue was the peacocks. They were beautiful but there were around 6 of them and they made a really loud racket from 3.30am each morning, which made it impossible to sleep after this point. Sadly it would put us off a repeat visit. All fields also quite hilly so sleeping trickier without sliding down the tent each night. Beautiful location though and clean, well maintained facilities.

Medium Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4)Jun 2023

We had a lovely stay at the campsite. The facilities were very clean and was a welcoming environment. Loads to do for our kids to keep them entertained. Only thing I'd say it is set up too close to the park, as there's a peacock that roosts in the tree and calls throughout the night, which woke us up a few times.

Nice site but toilets/showers disappointed

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring PitchesJun 2023

Barn Farm is a lovely looking site with lots of space for camping and touring. The upkeep of the actual site is nice and tidy and about a 10 minute walk to the nearest pub 'The Red Lion' and 'The Druid Inn' a bit further down. If you want to eat in either of those pubs, make sure you book in advance as we couldn't get anything to eat and the site shop shut at 5pm on Saturday. We managed to knock something up from the food we took with us. Our only negative really was we felt the toilets and showers were pretty poor when it comes to cleanliness. I don't know whether they were cleaned once while we were there? This was our first trip out in the van around the peaks so we'll probably try other sites and won't be back for a while, if at all. Shame about the toilets and showers as the rest of the site is nice!

Brilliant campsite for all

A really great campsite for all. We stayed in Field 1 which was peaceful. Field 4 was slightly louder, but also seemed to have a lot of family groups. The park was great, but the added bonus was the separate area with the trampoline, badminton and a few other outdoor games. The facilities were great, including good working showers.

Lovely site

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1)Jun 2023

Had a great weekend at Barn Farm, Birchover with the three generations of the Luke family. Our annual trip which coincided with Father's day so plenty of fun. Facilities were wonderful, but my wife did find the supply of loo paper in the Ladies toilets was sparse/none. However plenty of hot water and very clean facilities. See you next year or sooner.

Absolutely superb site. Went midweek so was plenty of room and the facilities were quiet, I've never been on a weekend, however lots of1st class amenities blocks. They really have thought of everything to make your stay comfortable in whatever unit you've got. Would highly recommend and we'll definitely be back.

Will definitely return

Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4)Jun 2023

Just returned after a 2 night stay and had a great time. Would highly recommend! We took 2 little boys and they loved the park. The facilities were well adapted for a small child, which made showering easy. Only downside were the noisy peacocks but even so, they were great to watch parading up and down the site. We will definitely be returning.

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1)Jun 2023

Lovely, edge of village location surrounded by beautiful countryside with plenty of wildlife to see including resident Peacocks. Ideal for walking/cycling, plenty of routes from the doorstep. Ideally situated for visiting Derbyshire attractions including Chatsworth House, Haddon Hall, Bakewell and Matlock Bath. Campsite itself is seriously great value (we camped) and has several, fields for camping/caravan/ campervan etc, with electric hook up available. Really well-equipped site, with good clean facilities to include an outdoor play area, games room, fridges and freezers, and a small well-stocked shop. Excellent showers, wash and toilet areas, which were kept clean throughout our stay. Definitely recommend, we just didn't stay long enough and plan to go again!

A great place to camp

Just a great place to camp. We were on a 'Dads & Kids' weekend and the kids enjoyed it, and so did the Dads. Will definitely be returning. Well done Barn Farm 👍🏻❤️

This campsite is amazing! So spacious and the facilities are all clean and there is a lot of them. The kids loved the park and the games room. The peacocks roaming around was a huge hit. We definitely recommend it, and will be coming back.

Lovely site

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJun 2023

Had a great stay at Barn Farm with friends, lovely site for both adults and kids, placed in a lovely village. Not our first visit, but this time the showers were not as clean as before and the mop for cleaning the showers after use was not there- only a small thing. Will definitely visit again.

Wow, awesome campsite

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJun 2023

Probably one of the nicest campsites I've stayed on in a long long time. Facilities are great, clean and plentiful. Site is stunning, the views are amazing and it's beautifully maintained. The staff are super friendly and helpful. The cost is also fantastic, such good value for hardstanding with electric. The peacocks add character and something different for the kids.

Lovely site

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring PitchesJun 2023

Great site, kept in superb condition, really clean and with friendly staff in an idyllic location. Sadly our stay was let down on the last two nights by a group of about 4 caravans who clearly knew each other and stayed up drinking and playing loud music and being excessively noisy until around 11pm, showing very little respect or consideration for others on the site. No visible staff around to deal with their noise.

Motorhome - Electric Grass Touring PitchesJun 2023

What a fabulous site. Spotlessly clean, great facilities. Lots of showers. Friendly staff. The peacocks are beautiful and wander around happily but don't make a pest of themselves. Cannot recommend this site highly enough. Beautiful location and immaculate. We have enjoyed every moment there. Can't wait to return.

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Touring PitchesJun 2023

Really enjoyed staying here. Where better than a camper van next to a field of alpacas, with a view of the Peak District? Great facilities, and amazing walks up to the Nine Ladies stone circle. Highly recommended!
