Family-run campsite in a scenic Peak District location
Bakewell 15 minutes' drive; Chatsworth 20 minutes
Separate adults-only and family-friendly camping fields in White Peak

Burrow down surrounded by typical Derbyshire farmland at Knotlow Farm, a friendly family-run farm campsite in the scenic White Peak area of the Peak District National Park. That’s your first step… and the second? Perhaps renting a bicycle from Parsley Hay, 10 minutes’ drive away, to pedal out over Peak District landscapes, or maybe whisking your four-legged friends off on an outdoor adventure – after all, they’re welcome here too. This rural break is a top choice for a variety of travellers because of its separate adults-only and family-friendly pitching areas. The site has a washing-up area, toilets and hot showers (plus a family bathroom with changing area) too, making it easy to refresh yourself at the end of a long day trekking through the local countryside or exploring some of the area's top tourist attractions… There are many of those nearby, by the way. Set just outside the small hamlet of Flagg, Knotlow Farm is a quarter of an hour's drive from market towns like Bakewell and 20 minutes’ drive from Derbyshire must-sees like Chatsworth House. There is also a small on-site shop to bag essential groceries and sweets, but if you're not in the mood for cooking, grab one of the site’s home-made pizzas every evening. There are breakfasts available every morning and fire baskets can also be hired too (with logs for sale), just in case you're after that extra little bit of evening ambience…

Our set up, loads of room, the pitches aren’t cramped.

Beautiful spot to eat your tea and watch the sunset

Loads of space to pitch up- ground not flat but did not hit a stone with any peg!

Peace and quiet! great location for a quiet getaway with loved ones

Fire pit was reasonably priced- s’mores and pizza made for a perfect evening!

Nice and clean friendly helpful staff great location…

Anonymous May 2025

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (adults only)

Liked: Very clean facilities. Freezer for ice packs. Pizzas available to order in the evening. Quiet site with no busy roads nearby. No noise disturbance from other campers. Short drive to nearby Buxton & Bakewell and approx 1 mile to walk to the nearest pub in Monyash. Some good off road cycling trails nearby using old railway lines.

Disliked: Some of the pitches are on a sloping fields, as we arrived quite late on the Saturday the only available space was one of the furthest pitches from the facilities area, this meant a five minute walk to use the showers / toilets (not a major issue for us but maybe not ideal if you have small children). 20p charge for a 2 minute shower.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch (adults only)

Liked: Lovely little place. Exceeded my expectations. The facilities are great, toilets and showers were always clean. I guess I expected ‘farm like facilities (compost toilets, not so warm showers ect) but this place has a great shower block, somewhere clean and warm to wash your pots.
Coffee machine and vending machine, little shop and even homemade pizzas on site. The environment was perfect. As a first time solo female traveller I was a little apprehensive about my stay but everyone was friendly and welcoming.

Local attractions

Those of you who want to glide past the sloping Peak District countryside can get started on the Tissington Trail (10 minutes’ drive). The old railway track is suited to wheels or walking boats, and the historic setting will get you ready for more historical sites… Those include Chatsworth House (20 minutes) and its peaceful grounds, excellent for a picnic and a walk, and the Nine Ladies stone circle (20 minutes). Legend has it each stone was once a lady punished for dancing on a Sunday. You may soon be dancing yourself - even on a Sunday - after a tour of Buxton (15 minutes) or Bakewell (15 minutes). Both characterful Peak District towns are packed with pubs, restaurants and cafés, and of course, in Bakewell, the speciality is Bakewell tarts. Down Chatsworth House way is Chesterfield (35 minutes) too – a destination for all things theatre, golfing and gourmet eats – but further on, it’s easy enough to get to Alton Towers (45 minutes) for a thrills-geared day.
