  • Peaceful site on a mown field overlooking pasture and woodland
  • On the edge of the Peak District; Chesterfield 20 minutes' drive
  • Spacious site with small number of pitches; local produce available
Unthank Lane Farm is a peaceful campsite set on a working farm in rural Derbyshire. Located right on the edge of the Peak District National Park and 20 minutes' drive from Sheffield or the historic town of Chesterfield, this spacious spot has a small number of pitches and lots of space between them. The main camping area is located in a mown farm field, where flat and level land makes pitching up easy. There is a hot shower, toilet and mains water supply here for guests, and some local produce may be available depending on when you're around. Around the farm, you're likely to see a good deal of agricultural activity, plus the resident cows with their calves. Getting around and about off-base is easy too, as the farm is well-connected to local footpaths and cycle routes in the national park. This peaceful site is in the small village of Holmesfield, the centre of which is just under two miles up the road. Head here to try out one (or all) of the local pubs, or to take the kids to blow off steam at the village play area.

What customers say

This small, peaceful rural campsite is praised for its beautiful location, spacious pitches and immaculately clean, albeit basic, facilities, including a good hot shower. Guests highlight the exceptionally friendly and helpful owner, Sam, who makes visitors feel welcome. It's ideal for those seeking tranquility and proximity to countryside walks and local pubs. Minor points include intermittent phone signal and a lack of internal lighting in portable toilets.
