  • Dog-friendly wild-camping site in the Peak District National Park
  • Eyam 10 minutes’ drive; Chatsworth House 25 minutes
  • Five minutes’ walk from the local pub, with shops a short drive away
Pining for a Peak District break that’s quiet and without all the extra frills? Look no further than Newlands Farm, in a rural patch 15 minutes’ drive from the market town of Bakewell. This is a fine spot for all things walking and exploring… Excellent hikes in the area include the walk over Bradwell Edge from Bradwell village (five minutes’ drive), Monsal Head (10 minutes), Mam Tor (15 minutes for the trailhead in Castleton) and Kinder Scout (20 minutes to the trailhead in Edale). When you want to track down tasty eats, Newlands Farm is on a footpath that gets you to the local pub in around five minutes. For shops, bakeries, cafés, fish and chips and more pubs, the villages of Tideswell and Bradwell are both five minutes’ drive away. Eyam (10 minutes) and Castleton (15 minutes) also have more on those fronts. Back at your base, there’s running water and a portable toilet, and cars can be parked right next to the pitch. During lambing season (which is usually from May to June), families can arrange with the site owner for their kids to feed and pet the resident Cade lambs. With such excellent walks close at hand and peaceful Peak District setting, it’s natural that the dog owners among you might want to share all that with your canine companion. Handily, well-behaved dogs are welcome (at a maximum of two dogs per pitch) – just be careful that they’re under your control at all times due to the livestock and wildlife around this countryside location.

What customers say

Newlands Farm offers a remote, peaceful escape with stunning countryside views, ideal for dog owners and those seeking a quiet break. Pitches are plentiful and spacious, with friendly, helpful hosts. While facilities are basic, portaloos are consistently reported as very clean and well-stocked. Some guests noted sloped pitches and occasional noise, but the overall sentiment is highly positive, with many expressing a desire to return. The nearby pub is also a popular feature.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Beautiful campsite with amazing views. 5 min walk to the pub with lots of walks in the surrounding area. One of, if not THE best site we've ever stayed at. Pitch sizes are unlimited, lots of choice for everyone. We stayed on a bank holiday weekend and had a peaceful and pleasant stay. We would 100% return.

Disliked Nothing!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Nice location

Disliked Got there to find it was mostly full and nowhere to pitchup other than in the middle of everyone, also we were under the impression it was somewhere for families and not large groups of males which itvwas full of, with having an autistic child and two dogs with us wasn't really ideal, so we decided to just leave to maybe try find an alternative. Although not really expecting a refund, iv tried to call an email to see if it would be possible, but just been completely ignored.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Firstly, I apologise to you — I’m sorry you had to leave. I hadn’t received any email or been made aware of the matter until I saw your review, which is a real shame, as I would definitely have offered you a refund.
We had a lot of families staying over the weekend, and I don’t recall any large male groups. Any groups we did have on site were more than pleasant, and the site was quiet after 10pm in line with my rules.
I will be in touch with you shortly.
Thanks,
Jess

Liked Lovely picturesque campsite and surroundings. Friendly owners and easy to find. Close to a local co-op for supplies. Felt very safe and away from everything
Must go to mootiful milk to get some farm fresh milk!!

Disliked Could maybe do with a couple more toilets as I counted 40 tents on bank holiday weekend. Saying that, I only had to wait a few minutes for a cubicle on two occasions over the weekend

Local attractions

The village of Eyam (10 minutes’ drive) is famed for its willingness to self-quarantine at the start of the 1665 plague epidemic. A museum has many exhibits documenting life, illness and death from that time, as well as a collection of local fossils and prehistoric artifacts – from flint tools, to pottery shards. A stately mansion overlooking the River Derwent, Chatsworth House (25 minutes) dates from the late 17th century. Its interiors are predictably spectacular, with highlights including the Painted Hall, with a grand staircase and a gallery with gilded balconies. As well as a rose garden and areas of woodland, the grounds have a maze and a playground. Fishing, cycling and watersports are just some of the activities at Derwent Reservoir (25 minutes). A walking trail skirts the water between the Derwent Dam and the Howden Dam, leading past scenic viewpoints of the lake.
