  • Family-run Edale site at the start of the Pennine Way
  • A 20-minute drive from Ladybower Reservoir; 25 minutes from Buxton
  • Half a mile from a café, pub, railway station and visitor centre
Whether you're looking to get a toehold on craggy rock faces or fancy a taste of slow-paced village life, you can't go far wrong with a stay at this fab Peak District park. Head to Newfold Farm Campsite for hols full of hikes, cycles and hilly explores – the start of the long-distance Pennine Way is a few steps from the site entrance, with many other top rural spots a short drive away. Newbies seeking tips on what to get up to in the local area will be in good hands here – this family-run site is owned and operated by born-and-bred Edale folk who are more than happy to share their wisdom. The community-minded village is also home to a volunteer-run visitor centre, an independent café, a pizzeria and a lovely local pub. A railway station is less than half a mile away from base, so leaving the car at home is definitely an option for those heading here. Not that driving is an unpleasant business in this part of the world – on the road you'll pass by oodles of historic villages, valley views and grand country houses, including spectacular Chatsworth House… Dogs are welcome to join you at Newfold Farm Campsite; barbecues and bonfires are also allowed.

This campsite is praised for its stunning Peak District location, ideal for walkers, with spacious pitches and beautiful views. Visitors highlight the excellent, clean, and modern shower and toilet facilities, alongside a popular on-site cafe and shop. Nearby pubs are also frequently mentioned. While some note occasional noise from other campers or dated facilities (with a new block under construction), the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many guests expressing a strong desire to return.

Dave P.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked set is the gorgeous Edale valley this camp has the best views I have seen for a while. It has a modern shower and toilet block and a lovely cafe and general store. Surprised to get strong 5g signal but there was free wifi too.

The Nags head pub has a good choice of food and is on the doorstep of the camp. The Ramblers Inn too. 8mins walk away

Will be back later in the season

Disliked The slope of the hardstanding pitch was too much for my chocks to create a level camp and the grass for the tent had a noticable slope. Other pitches looked better.

While i had no issue with mens facilities or unisex showers, my Partner said women's toilets not kept clean.

Sparrowhawk non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked I loved the whole site. Such a relaxing stay and the facilities were all top notch. The shower/toilet block was clean and warm and the cafe was a nice place to hang out and grab breakfast/cakes.
Will be returning here for sure, especially when camping season officially starts.
Also the pub being a mere 5 minute walk from the campsite (if that depending where you stay) was amazing.

Disliked Just the fields for camping weren't very flat, but this isnt really something that would put us off. We still had a lovely time.
WIFI was patchy depending where you were on site, however weren't there for the WIFI and it did work. So cannot complain

Local attractions

Draw a straight line from this well-placed site and you're bound to come across something that tickles your fancy. Heading west? Stop off for strolls at Ladybower Reservoir (25 minutes' drive). South? Buxton's fancy shops and theatres are on hand, as are the gorgeous grounds of Chatsworth House (40 minutes). Up for some underground explores? This site is a breezy 15-minute drive from Castleton, a village deep in the White Peak where there are caves and caverns aplenty. Bobbing up and down along underground watercourses is on the cards at Speedwell Cavern, where subterranean boat trips are up for grabs. The nearby Blue John Cavern, meanwhile, also has much to marvel at, including Waterfall Cavern and its shimmering multi-coloured dome… When you emerge bleary-eyed back into broad daylight, you’ll probably be struck by the shadow of mighty Mam Tor (10 minutes from base). Hike up this handsome hill for a three-mile circular trail that'll stretch your legs and open your eyes to some exceptional vistas – on sunny days you'll also likely have the bonus sight of daredevil paragliders circling and swooping overhead.
