Clear filters Good facilities but overcrowded Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 The campsite itself was pretty good but I felt that it was a bit overcrowded. There wasn't much space left in the field for the children to run around or to play a ball game. The entertainment provided in the evening was ok but a bit too loud for people who did not want to take part. However, all the facilities were very good and clean.
Amazing as always
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 Amazing as always - definitely recommend this campsite 💯
Amazing site!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) May 2023 Love our stays at Barn Farm. It has so much to keep the kids and adults entertained!
Great toilet and shower facilities and plenty onsite. Can't wait for our return!
Fantastic time thanks
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 Usual fab experience. Made extra special with entertainment on site. Which was fun for the kids particularly.
Oh, and the scorching weather was a bonus! Thanks.
Great stay for bank holiday weekend
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 Amazing stay and couldn't have asked for anymore for my first camping experience.
The camp site was well maintained. The shower blocks were clean and no long queues. Loved the added benefit of the adults only block of showers. The toilets were always well stocked. It was bank holiday weekend so they had a whole host of activities and bands playing in the evening which made for a lovely atmosphere. Even though the campsite was full, everyone was very respectful and it was easy to get off to sleep in the evenings. The camp was located close to Bakewell and had lovely walks within a short distance. We also found a local wild water swimming spot.
Would 100% recommend and likely to come back!
Fabulous as always
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) May 2023 We return every year for our first camping trip of the season and it never disappoints. Fabulous campsite and they go above and beyond to provide family fun entertainment over the bank holiday weekend. Great location for local walks with young kids and dogs exploring Stanton moors. Great hot free showers and site shop always has everything you need. Although the fields are on a hill there are always flat enough areas to find to pitch up.
Really great site, had a brilliant time
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) May 2023 I have never enjoyed camping but my kids wanted to go, so we went with friends and I was really impressed. Showers are hot and clean, plenty of room to wash pots, toilets are well kept and always had loo roll.
The shop was useful and when we went there was live music on which really made it fun. There's plenty of easy walks from the site and 2 pubs just down the road
Brilliant weekend
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 We had a brilliant weekend at Barn Farm on May Bank Holiday weekend.
Came with a family group, the campsite was extra busy, but the staff were amazing to accommodate everyone. We never waited a long time for toilets or showers. We had the extra bonus of some bands playing over the weekend, who were really good.
The kids all had a great time.
Lovely site - no complaints here
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 Lovely little site - hadn't realised there was a mini bank holiday festival here when we booked but this was a bonus for us; didn't mind a bit of music etc but was obviously much busier than we expected, so a slightly different break than we were expecting.
Facilities clean and were being cleaned all the time - a little shop for essentials and a pool table and badminton for the teen!
The village is lovely, with a couple of nice pubs and the scenery is beautiful. Staff were friendly and even though the festival was on, the noise after 11 was minimal. No complains about the site!
Being a bank holiday, all the local towns were heaving and parking was a nightmare - wish we had looked into buses as spent far to long in the car!
An enjoyable stay all round.
Excellent
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 Absolutely wonderful family site. Couldn't find a fault with it.
The event that was on was excellent. Kids were well provided for, as were the adults.
The butty box were excellent particularly.
Great experience
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 For somewhere so reasonable, the facilities were great - very clean and spacious. Staff were very friendly and approachable, happy to help. The campsite itself was lovely and in a brilliant location close to Matlock and Bakewell.
All of the events were extremely reasonably priced and the set up for the coronation was brilliant. There was so much for the children to do and it was great how they did different things on different days. Barn Farm is just a genuinely nice place to be which we I would highly recommend and will definitely be returning to, so much so we've just booked to go on the next bank holiday!
Great bank holiday weekend!
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 We were a group of 3 families that camped in the overflow field. Had a great weekend! Lots for the kids to do, felt very safe for them to have a wonder round. Facilities were great and always clean.
Bonus having some live music on and even better with the sun shining. Will definitely be back.
Fantastic family campsite!
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 It's the second time we've been to Barn Farm and again, we had a fantastic time!
It would've been even better if we were in the same field as our friends but we were told their field was full when we booked (field 1). Although we arrived on the Friday and there was loads of space. Great place though.
We love it!
Personally, I would prefer not to have the live music as this split our friend group with some wanting to sit and watch and others not, but I love the games, trampoline, bar etc.
AMAZING!
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 AMAZING! would definitely recommend.

Medium Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) May 2023 We had a wonderful stay. Second time here and remain very satisfied.
Fabulous - nothing else to say
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) May 2023 What a fabulous campsite. Two pubs 400 yards down the road too. Steady 3 mile walk right from the campsite too. Lovely.
Great site, superb location
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 Just had a lovely three night break here. I normally go for quiet sites and was a bit shocked to find out there was a bank holiday event going on - it was extremely busy however the site was kept clean and tidy throughout. Everyone appeared to abide by the quiet times and there were plenty of toilets.
I was very impressed with the organisation and management of this site in such a beautiful part of the world with loads of walks from the site.
Great campsite, with everything you need.
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) May 2023 This is a great family campsite with excellent facilities. The kids will want to keep coming back time and time again.

Perfect
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 Great location, great site, great value and friendly staff! Will visit again 👍
Great site to visit
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 What a site, just what we needed. Right in the countryside, but only 4 miles from Matlock. There are several other places to visit as well.
The site was very clean and nothing was too much trouble for the owners. There are lots of walks from the campsite or bike rides. There are 2 pubs just 5 minutes walk away.
We will be back.
Barn Farm
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 Excellent facilities, pleasant staff. Clean and well maintained. Easy walking, access to moor. Bus service to Matlock or Bakewell, in village.
Good pub, 'The Druid' within walking (800 yds) distance. Good food, beer, local cocktails, family and dog friendly, both Staff and locals. Recommend Pie of the Day or daily specials, which include first drink some nights.
Site puts on entertainment and food stalls on certain weekends.
