Aerial view of site

Middlehills Farm is a well established and immaculately kept family-run site, set in 40 acres of land in the heart of the Peak District. It's the perfect spot to light up a campfire and watch the flames dance, meet the farm's friendly resident pigs and pet the ponies. Soak up the tranquil atmosphere from your spacious pitch, or relax and unwind with a little more luxury in one of two quirky glamping pods.

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesMay 2023

Booked this site for our first camping experience. Lovely little site, nice reception, playground and animals for the little kids, although we didn't think they had anything for older kids. The toilets, showers and wash facilities were nice and clean on arrival, although as with a wet weather weekend, it got muddy very quickly. Showers are £1 for 5 minutes, and pretty decent on my opinion. The site shop staff were friendly and helpful, the shop was fairly priced if not a little pricey, but acceptable. The food van we didn't use but seemed to have a steady stream of people, prices seemed steep but there was a captive audience. I arrived early to set up, and picked a spot on the top field, which over the weekend got quite full. A large family group turned up and pretty much had their pick of space on the site and set up next to us and may as well have moved into our tent! The site has a 10:30 noise curfew, however, this group's children were still screaming and shouting at midnight and the parents were still up at 2:45. There was no interaction from the site staff to my knowledge. However, as inconsiderate as this was, they were nothing compared to the noise from the nearby quarry doing night shifts on Friday and Sunday evening. The noise of the conveyor, crushing, alarm and tipping will almost certainly keep light sleepers awake. I can normally sleep through anything but I've come back from this expected peaceful weekend absolutely exhausted and sleep deprived, following a 4am shift start (bank holiday Monday morning). Overall lovely site, but I wouldn't return due to the quarry noise.

Family fun glamping

Camping Pod - Jabba the Hutt Camping PodAug 2022

We have just stayed at Middlehills Farm and Campsite. Myself, my husband and two children ( 5 & 2) all had a wonderful time! We stayed in Jabba the hut Camping Pod, which was clean and set out just right. We had wonderful views over the hills and although the site was busy, we were not disturbed by any noise. We woke to the sounds of nature and the farm animals. Daily visits from the horses were a hit with our children, along with seeing the pigs on the way to the play park located on-site, and the free roaming chickens. Hiring a fire pit was quick and easy, and the staff even offered to help take it to our pod. The staff were welcoming, friendly and very helpful (especially as our power bank hadn't charged for our phones, they let us borrow a plug so we could still take photos during the rest of our trip!). The only slight negative was that the showers had to be paid for and were quite chilly, but all facilities were regularly cleaned. We also used the car more than we usually would when away but it wasn't a big deal as places were only a short drive away. We really had a wonderful time and will certainly be back! Thank you for a lovely and relaxing stay!

Nice site

Great location with stunning views, with access to all the beauty of the Peaks has to offer. Facilities at the site are excellent with a well stocked shop for all the bits you’ve forgotten. Nice parked that keeps the kids occupied whilst you pitch.

Lovely site

Fantastic campsite, family had a great time. Only negative was a member of staff whose customer service skills could have been improved. Other than that though, great stuff.

Excellent first visit

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

We had a wonderful two night stay at Middlehills Farm. It was the perfect site for our 4 and 3 year old with the animals and play area to keep them entertained. Staff couldn't have been friendlier or more helpful with giving us excellent tips and advice of places to visit around the local area. The facilities were the cleanest we have had compared with other campsites. Would definitely recommend this site for young families.

Great site

Large Tent - Non Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

Lovely site, beautiful location, a few animal noises in the night but it adds to the ambiance! You have to pay for the wipers which are pretty feeble but everything else was great.

Brilliant

Medium Tent - Electric Grass PitchesAug 2022

This place has absolutely everything. My children loved it and my 15 year old son said how welcome and comfortable he felt. First time in the area and this place made it amazing.
