Excellent campsite with all the facilities you could want and more, kept immaculately and spotlessly clean. The location is amazing in a beautiful village with two pubs and very quiet. We will return.
Amazing place!

Amazing place, everything you need on site. Shop with very good pricing, very clean toilets and showers, games room for the kids and a laundry room. They also had a breakfast van and a pizza van at weekends, all good prices. It was lovely to see the peacocks roaming around. 2 lovely pubs within walking distance, lovely staff and very friendly. Would definitely stay there again, the kids loved it.

We took our grandson here as his first taste of camping and he loved it. It was an ideal introduction for him and he had loads of fun with all the fun day activities.

Best caravan site with everything you need. Great site, children's playground, on site shop, games room and well looked after toilets and washrooms. Very well run and know the needs of campers. We visited last year and returned again for their amazing events that they put on. All had brilliant time, even if weather was a little cold and windy! Accessible, well run campsite which is ideal for families

We took our grandchild away for a weekend break and the campsite more than lived up to what we needed. Loads of safe space to run and play, a handy shop for those forgotten essentials, animals to entertain us and clean, well stocked bathroom facilities. Would definitely stay here again

From the warm welcome to the concern that another (young) group might cause disturbance, the management of our stay was first class. The facilities were kept in top condition all day and were more than adequate for a very comfortable stay. The adults only shower block was a great idea. The location would be hard to beat and the weather was warm and sunny during our stay. An ideal location for walking Stanton Moor and enjoying the views, ancient monuments, along with the Summer birdlife. I would thoroughly recommend this campsite.

What a wonderful time we had. The campsite was just perfect. We camped with our 4 children in the site with the play area. The site is so welcoming and friendly and we all had such a good time. The facilities are great, toilets are clean and showers hot and clean too. We can’t wait to come back. Thank you for such a lovely time Barn Farm.
Lovely stay

We have stayed at the campsite previously, but found our favorite pitch this time. Fingers crossed it's always available!! Some great walks directly from the campsite. A busy weekend for the campsite, but we were always able to use the facilities. Very clean site.
As good as ever

Such a lovely location and perfect for what we wanted: to walk to Robin Hood’s Stride and other great bouldering areas. Will definitely come here every time.
Unfortunately not for us

Very noisy and very busy with backpacking D of E participants (probably 100+ young people on the tenting field at times). A lovely set up but don't go if you want peace and quiet. We wouldn't have booked if we had known this was the case. Best suited to teenagers. One of the shower blocks was closed (the one designated for non D of E) so even taking a shower was full on. Toilets were very messy on the morning we left.
Tranquility and wonderful views

We have stayed here twice now. We have a Motorhome and we use the bus to visit Matlock and Bakewell . It was certainly an experience around the tiny roads. The site is excellent and the staff are very friendly but the reason we go back is the wonderful views.
Beautiful site

This is a great site. It has character and loads of space. The site is well laid out and has lots of facilities, including an adult only shower area. The pitches are a generous size and never far from water or bins. Great views and 2 local pubs, both serving food.
Quiet and clean

This was our first time ever on a campsite. We were in a campervan so didn't need to use the facilities as much as people in tents would, but the showers and toilets looked clean and were heated. We were welcomed and given all the info we needed. The site wasn't very busy, so the shop wasn't open all the time, but the people at reception were very happy to open it when needed. The site was very well looked after and we had no problems finding a pitch and setting up. There are a few peacocks roaming around and although they are quite vocal, it didn't bother us. There are lovely views and walks straight from the campsite, and although the weather was mixed, we took advantage of a few dry hours here and there to get out and about. We ate in a local pub one evening which was welcoming, with good food. Definitely recommend this campsite.

Lovely site. Stayed here with our two little dogs and found lots of walking routes. Short walk to two local pubs and shop on site, which was handy. Staff were lovely and informative on arrival. The only slight negative was that the peacocks were shouting at 4am, which disturbed our sleep. However, we have not been put off by this and will return.

We stayed at Barn Farm for 3 nights in our caravan. It was lovely, clean and we felt very comfortable. Lots of peacocks around the site that were amazing to see. Staff were warm, friendly and welcoming. Very clean and well maintained, with helpful and friendly staff, beautiful fresh mornings with beautiful views.
Brilliant, clean, welcoming and lovely

Absolutely brilliant place to stay. Very friendly welcome and the staff were very helpful. Lots of things to do in the area, including a visit to the Drovers pub for a splendid meal. Lots of animals around the site, and very noisy Peacocks, but that's what you pay for. Plenty of hot water and lovely showers. What else could one wish for?
