We have used Barn Farm on a number of occasions for DofE Expeditions. Mark could not be more helpful and the facilities are excellent.

This was our first stay at Barn Farm and we absolutely loved it. The site is immaculate. Despite a lot of rain, the fields held up amazingly well and we had no issues moving about the site. The facilities are spot on - clean toilets and showers, well-stocked shop and little extras that we wouldn't expect, but that made our trip all the more enjoyable. We are already planning our next visit.

No hot water in pot wash area and was very sporadic in the shower area The private cubicles were nice. Mark was very helpful and friendly. Peacocks were lovely to see but can be noisy if you are in a tent. Take earplugs. It's a bigger campsite than we would normally choose, but we were there for a wedding. The barns were great, the bigger one was fab for a get together with friends. The one for a couple was really nice. This is a good all round campsite that can facilitate everyone's needs.

Brilliant campsite. Everything you need without being over commercialised. The added extra of the use of the barn in bad weather was fab and we were so grateful to have this warm, dry space.

It has to be said that the location is by far the best aspect of this site; stunning countryside with fantastic views and so many great places to visit within a few miles. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The site was very quiet, with few campers which was actually quite nice as we'd expected that the site would be fairly booked up. I would imagine the facilities might have been a bit stretched if the site had been fully booked as the camping fields are extensive and, unless I'm mistaken, there is a total of 16 shower rooms available for the site. We'd definitely come back as the negatives outweighed the positives by some way and as I mentioned, you cannot get much better location wise.

Fantastic site. Right next to village with two great pubs and bus services to Matlock and Bakewell. Also convenient for excellent walks. Lots of space on site with everything we wanted. We will definitely return and recommend this site.

Absolutely gorgeous site. Views amazing. Will definitely stay there again but would like to be nearer toilet and shower facilities due to mobility difficulties. Although the site I was on was lovely, if the barn there could be made into toilets, that would be amazing. I loved Barn Farm and its lovely to see young people there doing their D of E. Thank you.
Great stay

Turned up after a long drive up hill and down Dale, in torrential rain. The site weren't aware we were coming, so some digging around in the system was required before they eventually found our booking. We were told to head to any hard-standing pitches - ultimately the only ones left were furthest away from the main facilities. From what we could see none of the hard standings were level, and as we had no levelling blocks so we had a night sleeping at an angle. The site was full of Duke Of Edinburgh campers, who posed no problems, but the four toilets became three as one ended up being blocked. Four toilets for the whole site. We had no experience of the showers as the weather turned poor and we made the decision to leave in the morning of the first full day, as high winds were promised and we were worried about the integrity of the pop roof. Overall, I can imagine the site would be wonderful in glorious weather, but sadly for us it wasn't to be.
Great despite wild weather

We stayed as 2 families with young children on a very wet and windy weekend, but had a fantastic time. Really lovely site, the facilities were great and there were plenty of showers. The games room was very useful when it was tipping it down and they also opened a large barn with seating, where we could take the kids to play. Planning to return when the sun is out!

This was a great find. Perfect for walks at the bottom of Stanton Moor. Birchover has a couple of nice pubs with friendly staff and great food. The cleanliness of the site and facilities were exemplary. Would definitely recommend.

This campsite was lovely and so clean, in a beautiful location. Our only complaint would be the 4am or 5am peacock alarm call 🙈

What a beautiful spot! Barn Farm is a wonderful campsite. Very well run and everything feels spacious. That makes such a difference. Friendly helpful staff. Everyone who visits is bound to remember the peacocks - there are about 10 I think and apart from being beautiful, they are full of character. Listen out for Honk and Kazoo (my names)!

As a spot for relaxing and touring the Dales, it'd be hard to find better. Just beware there are some well steep hills around.
Good week

This is a nice site, backed with well-maintained showers and toilets. The shop is small, but has the basics. The site was busy being what appears to be a central point for school kids doing Duke of Edinburgh and other similar activities. The school kids can be noisy at acceptable times, but are quiet at the appropriate times so don't let this put you off. Games room for older kids and a small area for younger ones. This is a good spot with Stanton Moor above it, surrounded by loads of walks and visitor points like the Blue John and lead mines.Good pub food in the village and multiple alternative pubs within a short drive. Staff were happy to answer questions and polite. The caravan pitches drop quite a lot at the back and at the sides, so be prepared to do quite a bit of levelling and don't be scared to ask for bricks. Despite some rain every day, we had a good week.

Fabulous campsite that was ideal for a large group with loads of kids. Great facilities including powerful hot showers, a lovely playgroup and other activites for children, and all the animals; set in gorgeous countryside. We couldn't have asked for more to make the weekend perfect. Will definitely be back again!
