  • Family-run campsite on a working farm near Clowne in Derbyshire
  • Half an hour’s drive to the Peak District; Chatsworth House 40 minutes
  • Fishing pond and farm shop; direct access to walks and bike rides
Ramblers, fishing folk, families and their dogs – all are welcome at Stanfree Road Farm’s almost-wild campsite near Clowne and Chesterfield in Derbyshire. Set in rolling fields on a small working farm, this family-run site is a handy base for pottering around the Peak District, while keen anglers will probably want to stay behind and cast a line or two on the pond. Simple facilities out on the camping field include a toilet and shower block; there’s no lighting on site, so just make sure to bring along torches for the nighttime. At the handy family-run farm shop, you can pick up fresh eggs for a breakfast fry-up, as well as home-reared, grass-fed Aberdeen Angus beef for the evening barbecue (bring your own barbecue with you, ta). Vehicles are allowed on the meadow for pitching and packing-up purposes only, leaving the campsite safe for kids (and dogs on leads) to play safely. Parking is provided adjacent to the field.

What customers say

This is a peaceful, spacious campsite with friendly, helpful staff and a picturesque setting. Guests praised the clean facilities, on-site farm shop with excellent produce, and fishing opportunities. Accommodation, including pods and shepherd's huts, was frequently highlighted for its comfort and thoughtful touches. Minor points raised include occasional issues with pitch levelling and the limited number of facilities during busy periods, which the management is actively addressing.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked It is a nice site spacious, choose your own pitch free fishing onsite (catch and release). Butchers and ice-cream parlour on site.

Disliked It is a nice site but I think the facilities could do with some improvement. It has shared toilets. So can be uncomfortable for some people to go. The showers were ok 2 out of 3 worked one just didn't get hot while we were there and they're also quite small not bad for one person but we had kids aswel which was difficult.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Friendly owner who greeted us on arrival. Close to shops but still feels like you are in the middle of no where. Had a fishing pond, didn't fish but will do next time. Farm shop right next to field. Enough flat ground to pitch.

Local attractions

For active family days out in the fresh air, Clowne Branchline Greenway (15 minutes by bike) promises gentle rides along a former railway line. It links into the multi-use Archaeological Way, which passes old collieries on its way to the gorge and museum at Creswell Crags (both half an hour). There are more adventures to be had in the Peak District National Park (half an hour’s drive), like hiking along the banks of the River Derwent or maybe testing yourselves on a section of the Pennine Way from Edale (an hour). If you’d like to tick a few stately piles off your to-see list, the spectacular Chatsworth House (40 minutes) is open for tours of its sumptuous apartments and scenic walks through landscaped grounds. Nearby is majestic Hardwick Hall (20 minutes), where you can admire Elizabethan architecture at its best, while at hillside Bolsover Castle (10 minutes) there is a circular rampart walk with views over the Vale of Scarsdale. Still not had your fill of history? Head to Chesterfield (20 minutes) to marvel at the twisted steeple on the Crooked Spire church.
