  • Family-run campsite in a scenic Peak District location
  • Bakewell 15 minutes' drive; Chatsworth 20 minutes
  • Separate adults-only and family-friendly camping fields in White Peak
Burrow down surrounded by typical Derbyshire farmland at Knotlow Farm, a friendly family-run farm campsite in the scenic White Peak area of the Peak District National Park. That’s your first step… and the second? Perhaps renting a bicycle from Parsley Hay, 10 minutes’ drive away, to pedal out over Peak District landscapes, or maybe whisking your four-legged friends off on an outdoor adventure – after all, they’re welcome here too. This rural break is a top choice for a variety of travellers because of its separate adults-only and family-friendly pitching areas. The site has a washing-up area, toilets and hot showers (plus a family bathroom with changing area) too, making it easy to refresh yourself at the end of a long day trekking through the local countryside or exploring some of the area's top tourist attractions… There are many of those nearby, by the way. Set just outside the small hamlet of Flagg, Knotlow Farm is a quarter of an hour's drive from market towns like Bakewell and 20 minutes’ drive from Derbyshire must-sees like Chatsworth House. There is also a small on-site shop to bag essential groceries and sweets, but if you're not in the mood for cooking, grab one of the site’s home-made pizzas every evening. There are breakfasts available every morning and fire baskets can also be hired too (with logs for sale), just in case you're after that extra little bit of evening ambience…

Susy E.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite (adults only)

Liked No frills but everything we needed. Just what we wanted to try out my son’s new 3 man tent before he goes off on his own adventures.
Clean toilets and hot showers. 20p for 2 mins ago. Washing up facilities. Small Farm shop offered all those extra bits if you needed, which was a welcome surprise. Could even buy extra pegs as got a bit windy.
Could order bacon roll, fresh hot buttered tea cake or croissant for breakfast or pizza for eve. Very tasty too!
Freezer to rotate your ice blocks. Tea coffee vending machine if you needed it too.
Staff helpful and friendly.
Altogether a lovely get away from it all mini break. Thank you. Had a lovely experience.

Disliked Nothing.

Lovely rural site with a family atmosphere, pizzas were a bonus!…

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite (family)

Liked I stayed here with my daughter for a hiking trip which the location was perfect. The site was friendly and welcoming and where we were touched was not far from the toilet block. /showers basic but clean with ample washing up areas.

Disliked Not the sites fault but I pitched on a slight slope so didn’t help my back much

I really enjoyed my two nights stay here! Facilities were good…

Elzbieta J.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite (family)

Liked I really enjoyed my two nights stay here! Facilities were good with nice hot showers (these are paid separately at 20p per 2 minutes). Relaxed atmosphere. Delicious pizza!
Tiny dislike/ observations: I stayed in Chesnut field, and it was quite steep and slopy. Maybe other fields were better, those I drove past on way in weren't that flat either. This mighy be just me, but as these are grass, in wet weather I think it might be a bit of a challenge to get to if you're in a van/ motorhome.

Local attractions

Those of you who want to glide past the sloping Peak District countryside can get started on the Tissington Trail (10 minutes’ drive). The old railway track is suited to wheels or walking boats, and the historic setting will get you ready for more historical sites… Those include Chatsworth House (20 minutes) and its peaceful grounds, excellent for a picnic and a walk, and the Nine Ladies stone circle (20 minutes). Legend has it each stone was once a lady punished for dancing on a Sunday. You may soon be dancing yourself - even on a Sunday - after a tour of Buxton (15 minutes) or Bakewell (15 minutes). Both characterful Peak District towns are packed with pubs, restaurants and cafés, and of course, in Bakewell, the speciality is Bakewell tarts. Down Chatsworth House way is Chesterfield (35 minutes) too – a destination for all things theatre, golfing and gourmet eats – but further on, it’s easy enough to get to Alton Towers (45 minutes) for a thrills-geared day.
