  • Family-run Edale site at the start of the Pennine Way
  • A 20-minute drive from Ladybower Reservoir; 25 minutes from Buxton
  • Half a mile from a café, pub, railway station and visitor centre
Whether you're looking to get a toehold on craggy rock faces or fancy a taste of slow-paced village life, you can't go far wrong with a stay at this fab Peak District park. Head to Newfold Farm Campsite for hols full of hikes, cycles and hilly explores – the start of the long-distance Pennine Way is a few steps from the site entrance, with many other top rural spots a short drive away. Newbies seeking tips on what to get up to in the local area will be in good hands here – this family-run site is owned and operated by born-and-bred Edale folk who are more than happy to share their wisdom. The community-minded village is also home to a volunteer-run visitor centre, an independent café, a pizzeria and a lovely local pub. A railway station is less than half a mile away from base, so leaving the car at home is definitely an option for those heading here. Not that driving is an unpleasant business in this part of the world – on the road you'll pass by oodles of historic villages, valley views and grand country houses, including spectacular Chatsworth House… Dogs are welcome to join you at Newfold Farm Campsite; barbecues and bonfires are also allowed.

Aaron O.

Grouse unpowered grass tent site

Liked Allocated you a field and left to pitch where you wanted, lovely grassy field, very clean and well maintained. Great toilet and pot washing facilities with warm and private showers. Staff all seemed friendly and helpful in both he pizza ovens, cafe, shop and reception. Very relaxed and comfortable stay.

Disliked Slightly sloped field which we didn't mind (just made sure the sleeping angle went with the gradient).

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked Schöner Stellplatz und guter
Ausgangspunkt für tolle Wanderungen. Pubs sind fußläufig erreichbar. Ein Café und eine Pizzabude ist am Platz.

Disliked Die Toilettenanlagen wurden manchmal von Teenagern als Aufenthaltsort für Handykommunikation genutzt. Das nervte ein bisschen, wenn sie vor den Toiletten daddelten.

Powered concrete and grass caravan site

Liked The owners of this site are genuinely lovely people, really welcoming and accommodating throughout our stay. It was nice to just be asked how our stay was and if we slept ok. You can tell that Andy and Gill genuinely care about what they do.

The site itself is an absolute gem, georgeous location and really spacious pitches. Theres a great little games room with pool / air hockey table, table tennis, dartboard, table football and family board games. Theres a fridge and kettle for shared use which was a bonus, and this is all in with the price. We now have oir new favourite campsite and will be booking again soon.

The washrooms were kept pristine condition, which is always a bonus and there are plenty of sinks with hot water to do the pots.

You can also hire fire pits and enjoy a campfire.

Just a few minute walk either direction from the site, and there are 2 nice places to eat and grab a drink and for those that like a hike, you can do a full roundtrip from the site, up past Mam Tor and down into castleton and back.

For what is a fairly new site, we were really impressed.

Disliked There wasnt anything to dislike. Great site

Local attractions

Draw a straight line from this well-placed site and you're bound to come across something that tickles your fancy. Heading west? Stop off for strolls at Ladybower Reservoir (25 minutes' drive). South? Buxton's fancy shops and theatres are on hand, as are the gorgeous grounds of Chatsworth House (40 minutes). Up for some underground explores? This site is a breezy 15-minute drive from Castleton, a village deep in the White Peak where there are caves and caverns aplenty. Bobbing up and down along underground watercourses is on the cards at Speedwell Cavern, where subterranean boat trips are up for grabs. The nearby Blue John Cavern, meanwhile, also has much to marvel at, including Waterfall Cavern and its shimmering multi-coloured dome… When you emerge bleary-eyed back into broad daylight, you’ll probably be struck by the shadow of mighty Mam Tor (10 minutes from base). Hike up this handsome hill for a three-mile circular trail that'll stretch your legs and open your eyes to some exceptional vistas – on sunny days you'll also likely have the bonus sight of daredevil paragliders circling and swooping overhead.
