  • Well-maintained peaceful caravan park in the heart of Peak District
  • 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.

What customers say

Beautiful, peaceful new campsite with spacious, level pitches. Clean, modern facilities (warm showers, good dishwashing areas). Well-maintained and secure with gated entrance. Local pub nearby. Field can get muddy in wet weather, and toilet/shower cubicles can be busy during peak times. Highly recommended for tranquility and cleanliness.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked A nice small site, facilities were good close to the pub in Foolow and a good location for accessing The Peak District

Disliked Only 2 showers and 2 toilets (male) for the site, could probably do with 2 more toilets and another shower.

Non electric site, EHU would be good.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you Chris for your feedback and I am glad you like our campsite.

We are aiming to provide more showers and toilets shortly.

A lovely relaxed site set in beautiful surroundings

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Loved the site, the cleanliness of the facilities and the relaxed atmosphere.
Weather was superb but if it had been windy the efforts made to shelter the site would have been much appreciated.

Disliked Only one drinking water stand by the entrance, would suggest installing more taps actually on the site.
Bit of a drains smell around the facilities and feel that the number of showers and toilets was barely adequate considering the proposed number of sites available.

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback and I am so glad you loved the suite.

We do have a huge and very long tree lined area which is very sheltered too.

EVERY TAP IS DRINKING WATER - all the taps down at the pot washing area are safe to drink and there is signage to this effect over the sinks, I am so sorry if you did not see it, I will let my warden know and see if we can make it more visible than the signs over the taps.

Cheap and cheerful

Liked Toilets were okay but small cubicles. Big field

Disliked No nice views, WiFi barely reaches the toilet block let alone the field. No nearby shop without driving

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback,

We are working on the wifi to reach the whole field, it is good near the facilities and the glamping if wifi is needed, We do have a very good 4/5g reception area.

Liked We had such a good stay here from start to finish. Stunning surrounding views, clean toilets and showers, water facilities, easy entrance and clear directions on email and 5 min walk from a lovely pub. Yes it’s simple facilities but they do it well. I will 100% be back.

Disliked If you want good WiFi, camp closer to the toilet facilities. We weren’t bothered but just a note.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Perfect location just outside of the picturesque village of Foolow. Site was well maintained and had great facilities, fairly new and very clean. Secure barrier entry. We were able to choose our pitch on arrival and had a decent space between us and the next pitch. The Bull’s Head pub in Foolow is a great bonus; extremely friendly and welcoming with serving great food and drinks.

Disliked Nothing!

From the manager: Thank you for taking to leave a review and I am so glad you enjoyed it and found Foolow and the local pub good!

Please do come again.

Primitive grass campsite

Liked Absolutely gorgeous campsite. Huge, grassy field, beautiful, modern, clean toilet block. Lots and lots of space. It was very quiet when I was there and may feel different if it is very busy, but I think that's so much space it'll never feel packed out.

Disliked No electric hookup which would be nice, though I have a jackery which means it's not so important for me.

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.
