  • Small, friendly Peak District site close to several walking trails
  • A 10-minute drive to Buxton and Bakewell and 20 minutes to Chatsworth
  • Dog-friendly pitches; several pubs within a five-minute drive
For peaceful times in the Peak District National Park take a look at Longfield Farm, a small and friendly site surrounded by Derbyshire countryside. A 10-minute drive from the spa town of Buxton and the medieval town of Bakewell, the pitches here are well situated for all sorts of alfresco activities. In the surrounding Peak District, guests can pull on their walking boots and get stuck into several good hikes along the likes of the Tissington Trail and the Monsal Trail, each within a 25-minute drive. Dogs should find plenty to sniff out on countryside walks too, and cyclists can make use of the area's many dirt paths. For other outdoor activities to get the heart racing, there's kayaking, windsurfing and fly fishing 30 minutes away at Carsington Water, including taster sessions for first-timers. After all this, put your feet up at one of the local country pubs. Handily, there are several within a five-minute drive, including one with a large playground to let the kids blow off some steam while you nurse a well-deserved pint. This is a simple site with basic facilities only, but you’ll have access to water points, three toilets and a shower. If you don’t fancy a bite to eat from one of the local pubs, you're welcome to light up your own barbecue instead. Both Buxton and Bakewell have a good selection of supermarkets, or you can head to one of several local farm shops for meat and extras to put on the grill.

Liked Small, quiet site, remote beautiful location. Fire pits allowed. Hook up and tap right at the pitch. Facilities clean. Surrounded by nature.

Disliked Facilities are basic - not a problem, in fact I like it, just go expecting 3 loos in a container and not a lot else. All clean, well lit and working.

Liked Nothing as they were just money grabbers.

Disliked Management. I booked at 5pm to stay thay same nigh so it was last minute. At 6:30pm my car broke down on M1 near Loughborough. I was stranded for the night, so I called them to cancel and request a refund. Was told company policy says I can't be refunded and that my booking prevented other people booking a slot.. Are you serious?? What complete nonsense. I literally held the booing for 90 mins on the same day. The bloke I spoke to was called Andrew, he arrogant and rude. Told him I broke down (with a 3 year old btw) and he just hung up on me. I called him back countless times with no answer. I texted him and he finally had some cojones to answer me but just said I can't be refunded due to company policy. No empathy whatsoever. Just a money grabber. Literally stole my money. Easy work for him. People that behave like that will receive karma for sure.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear about the circumstances surrounding your booking and the breakdown you experienced, especially while travelling with a young child. We understand how stressful and frustrating that situation must have been.

However, bookings made for the same day are subject to our cancellation policy, which is clearly stated at the time of booking. As your reservation was made shortly before the scheduled stay, the accommodation was held exclusively for your use and could not realistically be re-sold at such short notice. For this reason, the booking remained non-refundable under our policy.

That said, we take concerns regarding customer service very seriously. We are disappointed to hear that you felt the interaction was rude or lacking in empathy, and we will review your comments internally. While we must apply our booking policies consistently, we always aim to communicate them professionally and respectfully.

We appreciate your feedback and wish you all the best.

Liked Lovely setting, the friendly cows in the adjacent feild is a bonus. Pitches are clean and flat. Very laid back feel. Set back from the road. Worked for a local, overnight stay.

Disliked More basic than I was expecting. No hot water in the washing up area. One basic toilet. Several, very loud cockerals that called from 1am repeatedly so no sleep was had! Obviously this is the nature of a farm but someone needs to teach them the time.... 🤣

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback back.
Iam not sure where you got 1 basic toilet from as there are 3 toilets?

Liked Great views, spacious pitches with taps and electric hookups close by. Toilets and shower were maintained and acceptable, but basic. The animals in the fields nearby were so lovely to see. Nice small site with perhaps only 20 pitches. Nice and calm site with people having a fun and relaxing time, but respectful to others. Good vibes!

Disliked A little noisy with the farm animals, was OK for us, but thought should mention it for those who need a full nights’ sleep.

The entrance to the site is on Flagg Lane (not The Jarnett). There is a signpost opposite the turning for Long Field Farm and Lane End Farm Trust. Look out for the fixed sheep pens at the top of the track, then follow the lane down to the site entrance on the right and look for your numbered pitch. If you type Lane End Farm Trust into your sat nav that should take you to the campsite.

Local attractions

If your walking boots are a camping essential, take them over to the Tissington Trail for a fine 13-mile route through the Derbyshire countryside. The route commences a 25-minute drive away in Ashbourne. For a shorter trail, the Monsal Trail is 15 minutes away – it's easier on the feet with a less demanding 8.5-mile route. For adrenaline seekers, Carsington Water is half an hour’s drive away. Here, you can hire kayaking kit or try out windsurfing if you're feeling extra ambitious. If watersports aren't your strong suit, their taster sessions will help to ease you in to the relevant techniques. For other activities that will raise your heart rate, there’s an outdoor pool in Hathersage 25 minutes away and several indoor pools within a 25-minute drive. Further afield, take a whirl on the rollercoasters at Alton Towers, a 40-minute drive away and with plenty to fill a full day. At Matlock Farm Park (30 minutes), a collection of cute animals should keep kids entertained; they can give horse riding a go too or gently feed the lambs if they're seeking some quieter time.
