Buxton, Derbyshire & Peak District

Campsite aerial

Located in the sweeping landscape of the Peak District National Park, Knotlow Farm is a tranquil campsite in an ideal location between Buxton and Bakewell. Great for campers and tourers, pitch up on one of the site's spacious camping fields (family-friendly or adults-only). For those glampers, choose a retreat in one of the pods with a hot tub! Many walking and cycling trails are nearby, including easy access to the famous Limestone Way.

Highly recommend this site, all going well I shall return next April. Owners were very nice, site was very clean and it was situated in an excellent place for walking the Peaks.

Quiet and clean with lots of space

The facilities were very spacious, plenty of them and very clean. The vending machines in the shower block were a nice touch and at reception they had a little shop with everything you could have wanted or might have forgotten to bring. Hosts were very friendly, the camping area was large and we had plenty of choice on where to pitch, since it was so quiet on the day we went.

A great site and the facilities were brilliant

Being able to have campfire was brilliant, would definitely go again. The site catered for all (family and couples) and it is set out very well with great facilities. The fire pit was great and location was fantastic.

Peaceful setting, family friendly and great facilities

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Pitches (Family Friendly)May 2023

What a lovely campsite! Really impressed with the set up here, simple but it has everything you need and the facilities were spotless. We stayed here with our kids (2 and 4) and dog - really handy having footpaths running past the farm for dog walks and the kids loved running about. Even though it was half term and quite a few families were camping (we all seemed to be on one part of the farm, I guess other sections kept child free for those wanting a quieter experience) it never felt crowded, there was plenty of space for everyone and the views of the surrounding farmland at sunset were really tranquil. Useful little shop on site too for a few essentials and we enjoyed the home made pizzas on one of our nights. Will definitely be recommending to friends and would love to come back again, there's so much left for us to explore on the surrounding area - next time we'll bring our bikes!

Fantastic campsite!

We had a great stay over bank holiday weekend. We were in a lovely little field with adults only so it was quiet and peaceful, which suited us perfectly! The facilities were a short walk and were great! The pot wash area was inside and the sinks always clean. The bathroom facilities were very clean and the showers hot - you need 20p per 2 mins but not an issue at all. There is a small shop where you can get essentials and ice cream. They also do pizzas in the evening and breakfast naps. We didn't partake but plenty did! The fire pit was great for the evening as it did get cool. The location of the campsite is lovely and rural and it's only a couple of ks walk to the pub in Monyash. Overall a really lovely stay and would highly recommend.

Fabulous campsite

One of the best run campsites I have ever been to. The information email sent a week before is really useful. The washing and toilet facilities were excellent, a really high standard. It is nice to have separate pitches for families and adults. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Lovely time

Only my second time out in my VW Camper. I couldn't have chosen better. Very helpful, very clean and well situated. I cycled to the Monsal Trail Parkrun and had nice walks into Monyash. All in all, it was a great time. I also had the benefit of meeting and making new friends.

Lovely place, will come again

Really good campsite. Loads of space. Would have preferred to have been in a more sheltered area due to the winds, but they must have been for electric hookups. The toilets and shower blocks were brilliant. Very clean and plenty of them. Hot water too which is so good! Pizzas were box standard pre-made pizza bases, but helpful because we couldn't really cook due to the wind. Overall would highly recommend and will definitely be coming back if we are heading that way.

Great budget campsite

Beautiful place. Very welcoming. The toilet/shower block was very clean and very warm. We got stuck as the ground was very wet. The owner came with his tractor and we were on the move in no time. Definitely will be going back.

Nice spot in terrible weather

Lovely spot. Dreadful weather affected things a bit, but that was no fault of the campsite obviously. Good clean facilities. Nice and helpful owner. Loud campers impacted a potentially peaceful space. We hope to return to have a more positive experience.

Excellent site and really friendly service

Had 1 night camping with my 7 year old. We cycled there from Ashbourne so it had to be reasonably close to the Tissington trail. We booked in easily then pitched the tent in our allotted field, cooked some food then had our showers. The toilet block was very clean, light and spacious with excellent showers. Overall, the site was clean, tidy and in good repair with good facilities. Although we only stayed 1 night, I wouldn't hesitate to have a longer stay.

We had a lovely stay at Knotlow Farm. We were only there for one night, so didn’t actually spend a lot of time at the campsite! Facilities were good, and we enjoyed that the camping field we were on was adults only.

Wonderful time on the campsite
