  • 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…

What customers say

Great-value, top-rated site. Lovely staff, spotless facilities, and stunning views. Well-organised with roomy pitches, optional pizzas. Some sloping pitches, occasional aircraft noise, but overall brilliant – many want to come back.

Unpowered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site (family)

Liked Countryside doesn’t get much better than this ! Very spacious pitches (it’s a massive site with 3 or 4 fields), and well stocked farm shop. Also a modern and clean toilet and shower block with 4 sinks for washing up.

Disliked It was a long walk to the toilet block when pitched in an end field.

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.
