Lovely grounds and wildlife in the area. The facilities were so clean and luxurious for a campsite. So sad that we didn't get to book the hot tub, but next time we will for sure! Just amazing ❀️❀️❀️

What a fantastic site

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesApr 2025

We found Barn Farm Campsite for a last minute mini holiday in the Easter holidays and were so pleased we did. It is a fantastic campsite, which retains the 'natural feel' of campsites of old. We arrived to a very friendly greeting, then were guided towards the possible pitches that we could park up our little caravan. There was a real flexibility in terms of which pitch we went for and how we chose to position it! We were on our first outing with the caravan (having always camped of campervanned in the past) and had a degree of trepidation due to the apparent 'rules of caravan positioning' that some sites seem to insist on. Not so here with common sense being allowed to prevail. We located ourselves on a hardstanding pitch that had lots of green space all around it, meaning it felt like camping and not like we were in a car park (which is what put us off some campsites). We had electric hook up and there was also a dedicated tap on the pitch for those that have fancier vans than us! Nonetheless, this was a very useful addition with no walk for water needed! The site was immaculately kept with all grass kept short and tidy - in fact, I couldn't be more impressed with the expanse of beautiful rolled, striped grass fields awaiting future campers (it will be a shame to let people onto them!). The facilities were plentiful and cleaned/checked regularly. There is a little games room, not that we needed it as the weather was fantastic. There was also a little outdoor games area with swing ball and badminton, along with a great children's play area (great for younger children - ours are getting a bit big now!). The area itself is beautiful with plenty of lovely walks from the campsite, many of which were highlighted in a handy folder of 'things to do' kept at the reception. They also provided printed walking routes and maps of the local area, which we made use of. There was a regular presence of staff around reception, as well as a little shop that stocked lots of basics for both camping and eating. Overall, it was a great couple of days and is a site that we will definitely return to in the future. Thank you.

Lovely campsite

Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Touring PitchesApr 2025

Great site, great for adventure walks and lovely people running the site had no problem whatsoever. The only reason for a 4 * on facilities was it needed a toilet down near the electric hard standing and grass pitches. Other than that, great place and looking at booking again soon.

Trailer Tent - Electric Grass Touring PitchesApr 2025

The only reason we have given facilities a 4 star is the pitch we were on was probably the furthest pitch from the toilet/shower block (bit of a hike). There was a small washing up station near our pitch with hot water and waste water facilities, so could be an idea to put a couple of toilets there. I am sure this has been considered by the owners, so maybe in the future. Other than that, it is a clean, tidy, well kept site set in beautiful countryside.

Fantastic site

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches (Campervan Only)Apr 2025

A genuinely lovely site. The only negative is the distance from the touring pitched to the toilets. We were at the far end, so I suppose this made it a bit worse. Only a real issue in the early hours.

A very nice stay, a warm welcome and very helpful in discussing walking routes. Great, clean and warm showers. It's a large site, with plenty of room as it was a quiet period.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2024

Lovely weekend at Barn Farm. It was pretty, there were lots of walk and a great friendly site. Make sure you take some levelling blocks, some of the pitches are quite sloped, but other than it was wonderful.

Cracking site, well run and great for walks

We were in the low season, so there was plenty of space and it was very quiet, excellent! 2 great pubs in the village, with public footpaths cutting through the site, it was so easy to jump onto all kinds of routes. Very helpful staff, they also have peacocks and albino peahens!

Beautiful and peaceful surroundings

Barn farm is a must visit site. There were beautiful views from all sides of the site. Surrounded by wildlife, not including the on site peacocks.

Beautiful campsite

This is the third time that we have stayed at this campsite and it's our new local favourite. Plenty of walks local to the site, lots to do in the area and two lovely pubs in the village. It's just a shame that it closes during winter months.

Great campsite with loads of facilities

Amazing stay, the site is clearly well looked after and everything is spotless. Shower blocks were lovely and warm and very clean. Loads of cows, sheep, alpacas and peacocks so it felt like a farm and the kids love it. Games room is a good touch! We will be back β™₯️

Fantastic campsite

All good. Just if you are in a camper/van/caravan and you have friends who are camping, try to get the camper slots (there are 4) in the top field if you want to be together.

Will go again

Good location for walks and the village of Birchover. 2 nice pubs within 5 mins walk, which served good food (Make sure you book as it gets busy). The views/backdrop are stunning. The one negative was our pitch was on a slant. Note to self, purchase some wheel balancing ramps. On the whole, we had a really nice weekend, plus the weather helped. Tony - 27th-29th Sept.

Lovely site, well worth a visit

A lovely site, great location and a helpful team. All of the facilities are immaculate. There are two pubs within walking distance, we had a lovely meal at the Druids Inn, which had a log burner lit, so it was lovely and cosy. We have booked an extra night at the campsite and we feel it's good value. Thank you. Mary and Ian.
