  • 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…

Liked Me and my partner loved this site,very picturesque.The facilities were brilliant bathrooms and showers very clean, the little shop were you check in, the nearest pubs and walks on a board in the facilities area, we couldnt have asked for anything better especially for the price. We will definitely be returning.i cant comment on the pizzas but we had the breakfast sandwiches which were also very good definitely one to try.

Unpowered grass tent or trailer tent site (adults only)

Liked Large camping fields. Grass well maintained. Beautiful views.
Very clean communal areas.
Good for hiking.

Disliked Only one toilet/shower block for 5+ camping fields. Very far away from furthest field. Could do with some closer as large campsite.

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

Liked My first time at this gem of a place.
Had a wonderful night in my Berlingo. The site is spacious, the toilet /shower block / pot wash is fantastic. It even has a coffee machine. Check in was seamless . Lovely 20 minute walk to Monyash. Its so refreshing to find a site thats not charging the earth. Well done to the owners For me that have got it spot on.

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

Liked This site is my son and my favourite campsite in the Peak District lots of space t pitch and play games great facilities. Toilets and showers always spotless no matter the time of day. Wonderful friendly and helpful hosts. Tried somewhere else earlier in the season as knotlow farm was still closed to visitors and other site although adequate wasn't a patch on this place. Excellent value for money we will be back soon.

Liked It was a very well kept farm. Facilities were very nice and clean (cleaned very regularly). Pitches were big and specious. Honestly, one of the best camping sites we stayed it. We have nothing bad to say about it, definitely recommend

Liked Lovely location on a quiet working farm.
Facilities spotlessly clean. I could pick my own spot as was there at a very quiet time. Grass was nicely mown. Lovely walk to a farm shop and Monyash village from the site. .

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.
