  • Peaceful and simple pop-up site at a Peak District family-run farm
  • Bakewell, Chatsworth and Haddon Hall within 15 minutes' drive
  • Access to the Monsal Trail; Ashford in the Water 15 minutes' walk
Fancy a walk or bike ride on the Monsal Trail? Go right ahead – the popular traffic-free trail runs pretty much straight past Broadroods Farm Campsite, with direct access from the pitches. That means easy strolls/cycles to the soaring Headstone Viaduct or over to Bakewell, a couple of miles away, where you can reward your efforts with a treat from the famous pudding shop. This family-run site is part of a working farm in the Peak District National Park, so there’s plenty more lovely scenery to take in nearby too, along with attractions including the Chatsworth Estate, Haddon Hall and the ‘plague village’ of Eyam. That wonderful scenery surrounds the farm too, of course, and the flat grass pitches have plenty of space from which to soak it all up. It’s a purposely simple setup here to help guests slow down and appreciate the peace. Facilities stretch to just toilets and a dog run – nothing to distract from the fresh air, the chatter of the birds and the night-time views up into the star-filled skies. (Please note there’s no hot water on site, and it’s a good idea to bring a torch as there’s also no lighting after dark.) Barbecues are permitted here, so bring your supplies along or pick up bits in nearby Ashford in the Water – the pretty village is about 15 minutes’ walk away, and has a couple of pubs and a café as well as a well-stocked shop. A local brewery also has a shop about 10 minutes’ walk away.

What customers say

A tranquil, no-frills campsite with amazing views, perfect for hikers & cyclists via the Monsal Trail. Spacious pitches. Portaloos generally clean, but some Aug 2026 reports mentioned issues; improvements being looked into. Some guests found signage lacking.

Local attractions

The Monsal Trail is a must for many visitors to the Peak District, and that’s certainly the case for guests at Broadroods Farm. The path will get you to the Headstone Viaduct with a 15-minute walk, or to Bakewell in about 45 minutes (it’s a five-minute drive if you need your puddings more urgently). Bikes can be hired from Hassop, five minutes’ drive away. For other outdoor adventures, you may like to walk in places like Lathkill Dale (10 minutes’ drive) or Dovedale (half an hour) or go climbing at Curbar Edge (15 minutes). For gentler strolls, take a wander around the grounds of Haddon Hall or the Chatsworth Estate, with its farmyard and adventure playground. Both are 15 minutes’ drive away. The lovely gardens of the Thornbridge Estate (two minutes’ drive/10 minutes’ walk) are another option, or you could dip into local history with visits to Cresbrook Mill (five minutes’ drive) and Eyam (10 minutes). Buxton (20 minutes) is also nice for a wander, or you could go for a real change of scenery and head to Sheffield (40 minutes) for galleries, museums and shops.
