  • Dog-friendly wild camping location in the Peak District National Park
  • A 15-minute drive from Castleton, Bakewell and Ladybower Reservoir
  • 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 Bakewell and Castleton. This is a fine spot for all things walking and exploring… Excellent walks in the surrounding 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), among others. When you want to track down tasty eats instead, the site is on a footpath that gets 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 that front. Back at your base, there's running water and a portable toilet, and cars can be parked next to the pitch. During the lamb season (which is usually from May to June), families can arrange with the site owner for their kids to feed and pet the Cade lambs on site. With such excellent walks close at hand and a peaceful Peak District location, it’s natural that the dog owners among you might want to share all that with your canine companion. Handily, well-behaved dogs are also 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.
