Clear filters An amazing campsite
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Sep 2022 Great site with lots of space. Great walks and lovely local pubs. I will be returning.
Great site and setting
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Sep 2022 A great site in a good setting.
Facilities and reception were good. Kids loved exploring the surrounding woodland and adults enjoyed the local pubs. Pitches were on a sloped field and there was no recycling facility but these are minor issues really. Will definitely come back.
Barn Farm
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Sep 2022 Overall a good weekend, lovely campsite with good facilities.
Range of activities for kids, like a games room, and outdoor games like badminton, basketball hoop, wooden climbing frame. Some noise from adjacent field - no big issue - but not totally peaceful. However, great for family groups & lots of walks on the doorsteps. Fantastic pub in village (Druid's Inn) where we ate dinner - highly recommended.
Excellent campsite
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Aug 2022 Had a fantastic stay at Barn Farm!!
Location was perfect for some fantastic walks!! The site had everything you could possibly need, even a socket to blow up your air beds!! Loved the alpacas, and the peacocks roaming freely round the site, plus a swift bird nesting in one of the pot washing areas (nature at its best).
Would definitely recommend this site and will most definitely be booking again!!
Amazing!
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Aug 2022 Our first time camping, was a brilliant experience! Couldn't have asked for a better place for it. Very helpful staff, we got our car stuck on the field and the staff got their tractor to help us out. Clean facilities throughout, games room (laundry too) childrens park on sie and one not even 2 minutes down the road, and beautiful surroundings lots of animals to look at. Close to both Matlock and Bakewell! 10/10. Our family will definitely be back next season!
Lovely site and facilities
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches (Field 1) Aug 2022 Lovely site. Shame about the speed of the farm vehicles being driven around site. I was worried for the children's safety.
1st visit to Barn Farm
Small Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Brilliant campsite that had everything we needed. Will definitely stay there again.
Our stay

Our stay
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Lovely campsite, great entertainment for a bank holiday weekend.
Fantastic site
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 This is a fantastic site. As it was Bank Holiday with so much going on, the site was packed. Therefore I had to queue for showers and toilets hence the 3 stars for facilities. I have been here previously when it was quieter and the facilities were fine. Just to clarify it is the amount of facilities, not the quality.
Our stay
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Facilities were spot on, can't fault them We stayed at the same time live music was on both nights, which was nice. Wood fired pizza oven was amazing. All in all, a really good time was had by all of us.
Great stay!
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 We have been here twice now this year and both times it was great. We will definitely be coming more often!
Great place to camp
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 We stayed two nights on Bank Holiday weekend and had the surprise of live music, which we all really enjoyed. The campsite itself had great facilities and a lovely time was had by all. We will be back!
Great place to go
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Will be coming back here for sure. Great place- nice and clean and great views and walks.
Great time, music and food/drink stations were brilliant!
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 We stayed here for 2 nights over the bank holiday weekend, it was great!! The pizza vans and pop up bars were a great touch as well as the live music.
The toilets were kept clean as well as other shared areas. Will definitely be back.
Great find
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 This was our first time at Barn Farm Campsite and it was great. Well organised, great facilities and kids activities from bouncy castle and zorbe balls (not sure if it was because of bank holiday), but was great either way. Live music from some great bands and great food and drink trucks. Will definitely stay again.

Great campsite!
Medium Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 We have stayed here many times and each year we are pleasantly pleased with the campsite! Clean, spacious, great location and amazing views from any area of the campsite. Very dog friendly which is a bonus, two pubs walking distance from the campsite and lovely walks all very close by. Staff are very helpful and friendly too!
Would definitely recommend.
First camping experience
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Amazing first camping experience with two little ones!
Family and friends annual get together
Medium Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Aug 2022 Everything was perfect with the facilities, entertainment, and food and drink options for adults and children. The only negative would be the toilets. My wife used them and they were extremely busy, not particularly clean and smelled bad.
First time camper!
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 As someone who has never camped before, this park is incredible! You want for nothing, site is incredibly clean and the staff are brilliant. Pop up pizza cart and coffee shop are ace and the bank holiday weekend live music was an added bonus to what was a brilliant weekend. We are already looking for book back for next year!
Fantastic weekend
Large Tent - Large Overflow Field Pitches (Field 2) Aug 2022 Absolutely recommended! So clean & tidy. Nothing is too much trouble. Bank holiday bands! 5 star.
Good weekend but poor toilets
Large Tent - Family Playground Field Non Electric Pitches (Field 4) Aug 2022 The facilities were great in that there were food services, bar services etc but the fast food (burger & chips stand) was ridiculously slow. She just could not cope with the amount of people and cooked on demand, which I felt didn't work. The pizza service was brilliant and very well organised.
The toilet and shower facilities were a bit messy, and smelly. The toilets were blocked, ran out of toilet roll and hot water for showers and pit washing also ran out. Not enough showers to meet demand, with long queues and then no white water. My children had a lukewarm shower only once. This could do with improvement.
The water pressure at the drinking water taps also dropped because of the demand. The toilets never smelled clean and of cleaning products, though staff were in there quite a bit.
The bands and entertainment was excellent. The security could have done better at controlling the few people who forgot they were on a family camp site, not at Glastonbury at 2am.
Apart from the toilets, showers, cleanliness and hot water issue everything else was great.
