  • 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

This campsite offers stunning views and a peaceful, 'wild camping' feel. Guests praise the friendly and helpful hosts, clean basic facilities (portaloos and sinks), and spacious pitches. A nearby pub is a popular amenity. While most guests enjoy the tranquil atmosphere, some note that pitches can be on slopes and occasionally mention noise from other campers.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Location great, with amazing views, spacious fields, with lovely, stone walled surroundings. Brilliant price - we’ve paid double for worse sites

Disliked Really disappointed to see that open fires and pits were permitted during a week when a government warning had been issued re fires and heat. We had groups either side of with fire pits going, and didn’t feel particularly safe. Also disappointed that we didn’t see or hear from any management during our stay. This was our second stay here - during our previous visit last year, the manager chap couldn’t do enough for us, checking on us regularly, taking kids to see the lambs, even offered a lift to the pub - this time they were nowhere to be seen, even at check in. Bit of a shame really…

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked Plenty of space. Handy location. 'Permanent' portaloos (not the plastic box type) (though only two, fortunately no one seemed to get the trotts or spew, which would have been problematic given the number of people needing to use them; did not see them being checked/cleaned but they must have been).

Disliked After hours noise. What's the point in having a 'quiet after 10pm' rule if groups are allowed to be loud and merry all the way through to midnight (when they finally shut up)? They must have been audible at the farmhouse.

A second sink for dishwashing would be useful (peak time queues).

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.
