  • Dog-friendly site on a working farm in the Peak District National Park
  • A 15-minute drive from Bakewell and 20 minutes from Chatsworth House
  • Walks direct from the pitches and a welcoming pub 10 minutes’ stroll
Cows and sheep for neighbours, gorgeous walks from the pitches and the likes of Bakewell (home of delicious almond-flavoured tarts) and Chatsworth House within 20 minutes’ drive… who could turn down a Peak District National Park getaway at Brosterfield Farm Caravan Park? What a stunning and peaceful place it is, too: the camping meadow is surrounded by fields and operates as a quiet site, which means no loud noise or music allowed, please, as the owners want you to relax and get back to nature. Spotless facilities include modern showers, toilets, a pot-washing area and a chemical disposal point. In addition, there are a couple of electric-car charging points as well as recycling facilities in the corner of the camping field. Barbecues are allowed (bring your own from home), and you can stock up on bits for the grill at the supermarket in Bakewell. Your canine chums (up to two per pitch) are also welcome, and luckily, the local pub is dog-friendly (both inside and out) with an excellent restaurant, open fires and good ales. It’s only 10 minutes’ walk away in the pretty village of Foolow, which has a duck pond and is the start of many Peak District walks and mountain-biking trails.

It's conveniently located within walking distance of a highly-rated pub and offers easy access to local walks and attractions.

Serdal G.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked - Common areas are clean.
- The litter bins are tidy and clean.
- There is a barrier at the entrance of the camping area, which you can enter - with CCTV security and a code.
- So when you leave the tent you feel safe.

Disliked - I don't know if the comments saying "the views are beautiful" were made by paying for them, but there is no view.
- There is no natural view within the campsite. Just the trees surrounding the campsite and the vehicles and tents of other campers.
- When you leave the campsite and want to go for a walk, you go directly onto the road where there are motor vehicles, so it is not a place suitable for walking.
- Two shower areas are right next to the toilet, so when someone is using the toilet, you are showering, or vice versa. If you go to the toilet, you are suffocated by the steam from the shower areas.

Liked Beautiful views, short walk to a lovely pub, good location to explore the area and there’s some great walks nearby.

Disliked Not enough toilet cubicles (even the men were queuing!) and there’s not enough space inside the toilet/shower block.

Non-electric grass pitch

Liked We really loved Brosterfield and wished we had stayed longer. Very quiet site with lots of space and nice feeling of being in the countryside. Good shower block. Close to the Bull pub where we had a great meal. Buses at Foolow also enable one to get around without driving. Good security at site.

Disliked Rarely saw wardens and closed shop.

Liked The site was very clean and well cared for. Facilities were clean and close to the pitches. We had a wonderful time and it was definitely the most silent camp site I've been in. Highly recommend purchasing a burning bucket for the evening for sitting out and star gazing.

Local attractions

Hikers can soon be out on the Monsal Trail (10 minutes’ drive), which offers spectacular views over Monsal Dale and the viaduct at Monsal Head. Kids will have fun crossing the stepping stones at Chee Dale (20 minutes), where you can all follow the River Wye through its limestone gorge. Alternatively, families may prefer to spend the day on cable-car rides at the Heights of Abraham (35 minutes), take vintage vehicle jaunts from Crich Tramway Village or enjoy dinosaur trails and adventure golf at Gulliver’s Kingdom (both 40 minutes). Peak District National Park culture vultures among you? As well as a farmyard where kids can meet the animals, stately Chatsworth House (20 minutes) is set in Capability Brown-designed parkland and has a fantastic art collection, while largely 12th-century Haddon Hall (25 minutes) is open for tours of its vaulted banqueting hall and formal Elizabethan gardens. The infamous ‘plague village’ of Eyam (five minutes’ drive) is packed with pretty stone cottages and cute tearooms, and there’s a craft centre at the Jacobean-era Eyam Hall. A former spa town, Buxton (25 minutes) has a lively cultural scene and an acclaimed opera house; book ahead for tickets.
