Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Adult Only)Jun 2025

Well kept site with plenty of space on several nicely mown fields. Showers & facilities were clean & tidy. Maybe the wifi could have a booster that reached the camping fields but maybe it was nice to get away from the Internet for a while, too!

Lovely little farm camping site. Very quiet and peaceful. First time camping and really enjoyed it, just a shame the weather wasn't playing ball. Would definitely return again.

Spacious and clean campsite

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Family Friendly)May 2025

Lovely, peaceful site, perfect for our short family trip. Site is well kept with good facilities and cleaner regularly. The small shop, breakfast items and pizzas were really helpful. The site is fairly sloped, so to be aware.

Small Tent - Electric Grass Pitches (Family Friendly)May 2025

Absolutely wonderful place. The owners are so helpful and friendly. We forgot our tent poles and the kind lady that owns the site lent us some old ones and saved us from an hour and half trip back home. Extremely peaceful and quiet at nights. Spacious pitches. Immaculately clean showers, toilets and washing up areas. They serve bacon, sausage breakfast butties, pizzas at night. Must pre order. Ideal peaceful location and not too far from the beautiful bakewell and buxton. We will be returning in August and can't wait

Amazing

Staying at Knotlow was a lovely experience, the wildlife, the campsite and those who staffed it were unmatched. Would highly recommend. The four days were cold and windy with a bit of rain and I was still happy to stay at the site and had a wonderful time. Thank you.

Fantastic, well run site

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Adult Only)May 2025

Our first time staying here. The facilities are pristine, clean and no fault with them or the owners, who were very helpful and accommodating. The site was very well maintained and the location was bliss, so peaceful (we stayed out of school holidays so couldn't comment on how busy it would be but it's well spaced out) very picturesque for a few days away to recharge. It is a working farm, so there was the noise from animals you would expect to hear but that's the charm of the place, and the character It's best suited to those looking for a relaxing time away, close to the wonders of the Peak District. Wouldn't hesitate in coming back and in fact planning our next visit and we only just got home šŸ˜

Just perfect. Quiet site, heated toilet block and warm showers, pizza takeout, near Monyash village with a pub and a cafe, good dog walks from the site. Everything we needed.

Very good site, managed with good detail and friendliness. Easy walk to nearest pub and benefits from being on The Limestone Way. Clear rules and three distinct areas help to create a very relaxed environment for everyone. Fantastic breakfast options featuring local produce. Pizza offering for dinner looked great. Good sized pitches and large enough, regularly cleaned facilities. Dogs accepted.

Quiet, clean site in a central Peak District location

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Adult Only)May 2025

Quiet location with large fields to choose your space for camping though some areas were sloped the zone I was in was very quiet so I had no problem in finding a flat pitch well away from other campers. The facilities are located in a central "barn" conversion which meant a couple of minutes walk to use. These were well stocked and spotless. However, I imagine that there could be a queue if all the available camping pitches were in use. Shower was pay for use (20p per 2 minutes) but provided high pressure, hot water, so no complaints. Good location to gain access by road to many Peak District attractions and walks with the added bonus of ability to join walks from the site itself (including a pleasant stroll to a local pub around 15 minutes away).

Wonderful and quiet

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Grass Pitches (Family Friendly)May 2025

My wife and myself and our collie dog (Blue) stayed for 7 nights at Knotlow Farm. We found Margaret and John very welcoming and extremely helpful. The location was perfect for our walks. A different walk everyday, covering around 12 to 12.5 miles each day. The site is clean and well presented. John works tirelessly to keep the grass in check, and Carl and Angelica also do their own activities to keep the campsite perfect. All this whilst running the actual farm. We found our time to be very restful and the location is tranquil. Yes you have the sound of the cows and sheep and general countryside sounds, which we loved hearing and waking up to. You can also, from time to time hear the aircraft passing high above, but where in the land do you not hear that in this day and age. It is certainly not intrusive and not something we would give a second thought to. There are 2 very good pubs/restaurants within 2 miles from the site, both walkable. The Bulls Head in Monyash and The Royal Oak in Hurdlow. Both top class establishments with fantastic meals and exceptional beers/wine, all of great value for money. The only small drawback with the site is the W/C facilities when the site is busy. The facilities struggle with the demand. Not with the cleanliness, but the quantity. We just went early morning or late night and worked around it. That said we will definitely return. A top class site with top class people running it. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐

Very good family farm site, highly recommended

It is a great campsite, good toilet and shower block. Showers was very hot and clean. Washing up area very good. Quiet at night time. Logs and fire pit can be rented. Lots of spaces and good distance between neighbours.

Great campsite

We liked the site and found the location great for what we wanted to do in the area. The pub is a 30 min walk along a lovely track between fields.

A peaceful and beautiful site. On a working farm so busy, but without interfering with the tranquillity of the site. Fantastic shower and toilet block with indoor washing up facilities and fantastically hot water. Very dog friendly which makes such a difference. Our hosts were cheerful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had pizza on the first night and it was very good indeed! Great walking directly from the site onto the Limestone Way and not far to the pub on foot. We will definitely be back.

Great place for a weekend away

Glamping Pod - Glamping Pods with Hot Tubs (Adult Only)Apr 2025

We loved our stay at Knotlow Farm during the Easter weekend. The place is clean and well kept, you can find instructions on how to you various things everywhere which simplifies life greatly. The hot tub and BBQ are just behind the pod, everything works well. Toilets and showers are just outside the pods. Even though we made our own food or went out for dinners, you can buy breakfasts and dinners at the reception. People are nice and friendly there. In the morning, you can hear birds, sheep and cows which adds to the atmosphere. We loved the location, we drove everywhere we wanted to but there are some pubs in walkable distance.

Glamping Pod - Glamping Pods with Hot Tubs (Adult Only)Dec 2024

Really enjoyed our stay in the glamping pods and the location and facilities at Knotlow Farm. The hot tub was well maintained and private. We visited Chatsworth at Christmas and this was an excellent location to stay. Would use again. Thanks Knotlow farm for accommodating us šŸ™‚
