  • Family-run dairy farm and fishery with views over The Roaches
  • Short drive to Alton Towers, Peak Wildlife Park and Tittesworth Water
  • On-site farm shop and farm animals; 10 minutes' walk to two local pubs
Set on the southern edge of the Peak District National Park, Brooklyn Grange Farm is a back-to-basics site on a family-run dairy farm surrounded by gorgeous Staffordshire countryside. The scenery here is varied indeed, with views over quiet fishing pools, grassy meadows and the spectacular rocky ridge known as The Roaches. You'll also be well placed to sample local produce at this small-scale site – you can head to the farm shop, which sells eggs, bacon, sausages, cheese, barbecue meats and other goodies, or grab a local ice cream, milkshake or fresh milk from the on-site Milk Barn. You're welcome to light up a barbecue, as long as it's kept off the grass. If you don't have your own, there are firepits for hire (a cash deposit is required) from the farm shop and kindling and logs for sale. There's also a village pub and carvery around 10 minutes' walk away on the edge of Thorncliffe (with another around 10 minutes' walk away in Blackshaw Moor). For more flavours, try Leek (five minutes' drive), a local market town with a good range of restaurants, cafés and food shops. After a trip to town it's back to the countryside, where you might like to try a spot of catch-and-return fishing at one of the site's well-stocked ponds (for an extra fee, to be booked and paid for at the on-site farm shop; you must have an Environment Agency licence; no fishing available during the spawning season, which is generally in late May and/or early June). You could also take yourself off for a hike in the national park (a mile away), where there are many miles of well-mapped trails to explore. As for facilities, Brooklyn Grange Farm has functional and well-maintained toilets for guests. There is one shower available here (bookable for an extra charge at the farm shop), or you can take the option of travelling five minutes down the road to Brough Park Leisure Centre.

What customers say

Friendly staff and lovely views are highlights, with a well-stocked farm shop. However, limited and basic toilet/shower facilities can be an issue, especially when busy. It's a great value, relaxed site for walkers and nature lovers.

Richard P.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Relaxed atmosphere. Onsite farm shop had a selection of very nice food. Self serve milkshakes helped me consume 10,000 calories a day in milk :). Friendly nearby horses. Nice stroll around the ponds. 15 min walk to a very nice pub. Friendly owner. Good phone signal.

Disliked Toilets were clean, but only two for the whole site. I never had a problem as I could see them from where I pitched so chose my moment. Some noise early morning from the milking barn, but it is a working farm so can’t complain.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Lovely stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again if we are in the area.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked Great location for roaches walks and reservoir. Loads of room in the campsite, drinking water available, cold water for washing available.
Any staff we spoke with were brilliant and very helpful.
The farmshop is great, has all necessities you may need last minute.

Disliked £2.50 for 1 shower felt pretty excessive, only being 1 shower isn't great, neither is the toilet situation (3 usable toilets for a large campsite and a decent size fishery).

Our third time visiting. Will be back again!

Local attractions

Make your way to the wild rides of Alton Towers (20 minutes' drive), the UK's biggest theme park. If your idea of fun doesn't include days full of white-knuckle rollercoaster rides, another family-friendly option is Peak Wildlife Park (10 minutes). For those rainy days, it's not far to reach Blaze Farm and The Potty Sheep (20 minutes), an ice cream farm which also organises paint-a-pot activities. For further agreeable outings, head to the Churnet Valley Railway (15 minutes) or the Manifold Valley (10 minutes) and Thor's Cave (20 minutes). You could go hiking and climbing at The Roaches (10 minutes), visiting Lud's Church (10 minutes) as an add-on. And where else to set your sights on? Trails Day (20 minutes' walk), a centre where guests can learn to ride a trial bike, or Tittesworth Reservoir (10 minutes' drive) for watersports and walking, and Madrenaline Activities (15 minutes) for archery and axe-throwing. Rudyard Lake (15 minutes) has a miniature railway too. A bit of luxury? You'll find it in the elegant grounds of Biddulph Grange Gardens (20 minutes), a local National Trust property, or in Buxton (20 minutes), an old spa town across the border in Derbyshire with a range of plush places to eat and drink.
