  • Dog-friendly site with gorgeous walks from the door
  • A 15-minute drive from Bakewell; 20 minutes from Chatsworth House
  • Dog-friendly pub in the village of Foolow, 10 minutes’ walk away
Cows and sheep for neighbours, gorgeous walks from the door and a short drive from the likes of Bakewell (home of Bakewell tarts) and Chatsworth House… who could turn down a Peak District getaway at Brosterfield Farm Caravan Park? The site was originally run back in the 70s, as an addition to the then working Brosterfield Farm, before it ceased trading in 2003. The owners bought the farm in 2009 and slowly renovated it into their family home and the existing site – the surrounding acres are owned by themselves and farmed by the local farmer. What a stunning place it is, too: the field is quiet and surrounded by farmland. The main thing is that it’s small and low-key, as the owners want the experience to feel as natural as possible. There are modern showers and toilets. Dogs (up to two per pitch) are also welcome. There are some gorgeous walks from the door – and if you’re keen to dabble in other activities, mountain biking, cycling, shopping, taking photos or simply finding a spot to read a book or sip a drink will be very easy. The local pub is handily dog-friendly (inside and out). It’s only 10 minutes’ walk away in the village of Foolow, a pretty and traditional place with lots of walking trails, a duck pond and the aforementioned country pub with an excellent restaurant, open fires and good ales. Another pub is half an hour’s walk away from the site, and has views over the village.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: LOVED it all! Gorgeous location, clean facilities, perfect weather! We also loved the added touch of a fire pit to borrow- the weather was so lovely that we didn’t need it, but it was nice to know it was there! Would definitely consider staying in one of the tipi style furnished tents in the future as they seemed really reasonably priced! Thank you x

Disliked: There was nothing we disliked 😌 whole place was spot on

Paddington's Tent 2 bell tent

Liked: We stayed here for one night and it was really nice. The weather was sunny too so it made it that bit better. There was a bench outside the Paddington tent where we cooked our food (we took a portable bbq and a gas stove) and relaxed in the sun. Inside the tent was lovely. We really enjoyed staying here!

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked: Nice flat ground, easy to pitch on. Good facilities, warm and heated bathroom, nice that there was shower gel and things provided. Great location in the beautiful peak district, near Eyam and within walking distance of a local pub (would recommend you book if you want to eat there though!)

Disliked: We camped on side with small road next to us, not busy but if I was to return I would camp on the opposite side.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for choosing to stay with us and I am so glad you enjoyed your stay and the pub is great with amazing chefs and good food, booking is good advice :) Just a small note, there are no roads around the camp side, I think you may mean the private drive to Brosterfield Farm. Please do come and visit us again and thank you again for staying with us :)

Great stay with kids!
