Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesApr 2024

Such a gorgeous site with loads for all of the family! The local walks were just about right for smaller legs and the staff are super helpful! Also, highly recommend The Red Lion Inn pub for food and it's only a short walk away!

Beautiful site

Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesMar 2024

Fantastic campsite! Excellent facilities, including a games room. Very clean facilities and the water in the showers was actually hot - unlike so many campsites we've been to in the past. Would definitely recommend this site. Perfect for walking - the dog loved it! The roads/lanes on the approach to the site are a little narrow. Definitely avoid Stanton Lees and Birchover Lane, if you are towing or driving a large vehicle. Staff were lovely - very friendly and helpful. There's a couple of lovely pubs, only 5 minutes walk away too!

Great stay

Lovely site but take levellers!

Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2023

Lovely site, showers clean, hot and spacious! Need to take levellers as the pitches are a bit wonky but to be expected in the Peak District! Games room is fabulous but take some 50ps for the pool table and other games. Peacocks are everywhere and the children loved all the other animals the park had to offer!

Lovely views and accommodating owners

Lovely views from the campsite. Very sloped pitches so, as stated on the website, you will definitely need ramps/blocks to level up. Kids enjoyed the arcade room and playing in the woodland area.

Nice stay

Great campsite but could massively be improved by removing the patch of grass in front of each pitch as was very muddy and difficult to tow caravan away as car was slipping on mud.

Excellent site in a lovely, friendly village

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2023

Visited in mid October, site is in good location & close to village of Birchover (15 mins walk). Showers are private & very warm inside. Shop on site but at this time of year needs to be opened via visit to reception. Games room is available. Hardstanding pitches are on a slight incline so leveling chocks are required. The Druid Pub in Birchover is a great place for a drink and food " Fish & Chips" are highly recommended & the bus stop gets you into Bakewell etc. Rotor Rocks behind Druid pub is worth a visit. Would recommend.

Nice and peaceful

Good ground even though on a bit of a slope but what do you expect in the Peak District. Very clean facilities. Nice area with good walks and places to visit.

Great site with good walks and a couple of pubs close by. Only shame was that the shop wasn't open on the Saturday, which we found unusual. Toilets nice and clean.

Always a wonderful time

First time at this site and would definitely recommend. Set in a beautiful location. Short walk from the lovely village of Birchover. Excellent facilities and suitable for all ages. Ideal base for Matlock, Bakewell and many other beautiful Peak District villages and amazing walks and places of interest from the site and in the surrounding Peak District.

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

A great site in a wonderful location. Only real negatives were that there didn't appear to be any drive over grey water drop for Motorhomes, the shop was only open Monday to Friday and the toilet block was a bit of a walk from our pitch. Other than that, would visit again.

Excellent site, well located for the Peak District, Haddonn Hall, Chatsworth House and Bakewell. There are numerous walks from the site the most notable are Stanton Moor and the nine ladies. Two pubs within walking distance that serve excellent food - Red Lion and Druid. We would recommend Barn Farm although we would imagine it to be a very busy site in the summer.

Stunning

Beautiful location far reaching views of the countryside. Facilities were good with a choice of 3 different shower areas. On site shop, which opened up for us on Sunday as we ran out of gas. Very good information leaflet on arrival. Can't fault them at all.

Site ok once arrived. Access through the village was very restricted, with narrow roads and many parked cars. Views from the site are very good, plenty of walks are available without needing to drive from the site. Facilities on site are kept clean and functional and plenty of them.

First time we visited and everything was perfect

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

Nice quiet site. Friendly and helpful. Directions to the site were very helpful. Only issue was that the pitches are not flat, so had problems levelling. I wish I had read the information sheet first as they provide bricks to help with this. Also, if you're thinking of eating in the local pub, you need to book beforehand.
