Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2)Aug 2026

Everything was great, couldn’t ask for more from a campsite. Real likes the addition of food trucks at the campsite as well. The evening live band made the stay even more enjoyable, such a lovely atmosphere and a really nice vibe, kids had a blast. And felt comfortable to boo away till the end

Great place

The best campsite I’ve used in the UK. Facilities were great and the cleanliness was superb. Site felt safe for children. Entertainment was great and despite the weather, the indoor hosting option meant a great night was had. Curfew was well managed politely but firmly. We’ll be back for sure.

Fantastic campsite

A great site in the Derbyshire hills, great facilities, clean, quiet and a nice little shop. Two great pubs a few minutes walk away, with great food and beer! The nine ladies stone circle is a great place to visit, with access available from the campsite. Love this place and can’t recommend it enough

Amazing

Had a wonderful time there with my grandkids. They loved being able to explore the woods, befriend the peacocks and see the alpacas and nearby emus!

Great stay

Great few nights at Barn Farm as always! Amenities were spotless and even though short staffed, the shop could be opened and staff attentive. Despite the storm, we had a great few days. Peacocks came to visit us and shared a (little) snack from our hands, and they kept us entertained. Great play area for the kids, in view of our tent so we felt safe to let them be free in their wellies making new friends. Thankyou for a great stay 🫶🏼

Barn Farm Campsite – Highly Recommended We had a fantastic stay at Barn Farm Campsite and would highly recommend it, especially for families. The grounds are very well maintained, the facilities were clean and easy to use, and the location was excellent with lots of lovely walks right on the doorstep. This was our first time camping as a family, and we couldn’t have picked a better place. The whole family really enjoyed the experience and we’d definitely come back again!

Really lovely site and will go again

Love this site. The people who work there are really helpful, the facilities are great and it’s a great place for us to camp as a group. It’s quiet at night and a great location.

Fantastic family campsite

This was our fourth year at Barn Farm - we keep coming back because it’s perfect for our group of three friends and their families. Kids (under 9s) all have a brilliant time every summer, playing in the playground and in the family field. Showers and washing up facilities are top notch, plus an on-site shop to pick up anything ever forgotten. The breakfast butty van wasn’t open the weekend we stayed this year, which was much missed, but 5/5 all the same.

Our 5th trip here, and it never disappoints

This campsite really does have it all! It's in a great location with beautiful views, has plenty of practical facilities (covered and indoor washing-up area, drying area, a small shop, laundry, toilets and showers - all immaculately clean!) and also lots of fun things too (playground, beautiful walks nearby, games room). We were given a warm welcome when we arrived and the service was generally excellent the entire time. My only teeny tiny niggle is that we arrived when the field was fully booked (not a surprise, it was mid-August!) and we struggled to find a spot on the field that wasn't very steeply sloping (all the flat spots had been taken). We eventually found the best available place, but we still slid to the bottom of our beds at nighttime. However, we were warned about this in the booking process, so it's not a major problem. Those with a very large tent might struggle though.

Excellent campsite

The family field was great for our two nights stay - the kids had fun playing together, with adults joining in too. Good facilities and never any queues for toilets or showers. Nice pubs within walking distance and a pop up pizza oven on the Friday night meant we didn't need to pack our BBQ.

Great location for walks in the countryside

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesAug 2026

We stayed on a hardstanding pitch with several other camper vans. There were literally a hundred tents which were informally pitched and looked great fun if you were camping with larger groups

Great location lovely set up very clean and friendly

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesAug 2026

We spent a lovely weekend at Barn Farm with our friends and daughter. Excellent facilities, lovely location and very helpful staff. Had a difficult night one due to an Owner's Club group being particularly noisy next to our pitch, but the campsite owners sorted this out immediately for us the next day and they were much more respectful of the quiet time curfew.

Good place to stay

Great location, we loved being able to pretty much walk straight onto the moor. Easy access to peak district. Facilities were cleaned regularly but could definitely use an upgrade. We'd stay here again.

Couldn't fault it

Good check in experience and option to change field if we wanted to. Nice to have adult only showers, hair dryers provided with thanks, other shower facilities were good too. Shop on site. Good food truck but a little expensive. Paper towels in the toilets could be softer and more absorbent. Swings need some WD40! Probably needed more bins as filled up quickly. Some nice walks from the campsite through the heathland. Nice pubs down the road. Bus that went through the village.
