  • Small adults-only site at a farm in the Peak District National Park
  • A 15-minute drive from Buxton, the Pennine Way and Monsal Trail
  • Dog-friendly pub five minutes’ walk away; barbecues permitted on site
Planning to explore the Peak District National Park on foot? You’ll be well placed for all manner of rambles when you stay at Fields Farm Campsite, an adults-only pop-up site in a central spot within the national park just outside the rural village of Peak Forest. You’ll be able to get out and walk direct from the door here – perhaps starting with the short trail to Eldon Hole, an impressive sight that’s been dubbed one of the ‘seven wonders of the Peak District’. Lots of other great trails are close by too: the Pennine Way and Monsal Trail are about 15 minutes’ drive away, and places like Mam Tor, Bamford Edge and Kinder Scout are within half an hour. Crucially, it’s also just a short five-minute walk to the pet-friendly local pub, where you can dine on homecooked food or have a drink with your dog at your feet. Adjacent to the owner’s home, the grassy pitches at Fields Farm have scenic views of the countryside – a gorgeous backdrop for your morning coffee or an evening tending your barbecue. To gather supplies for either (and snacks for your hiking bag), there are food shops 10 minutes’ drive away in Chapel-en-le-Frith or 15 minutes away in Buxton. As this is a pop-up site, the facilities are on the simple side – there are no showers or drinking water supplies but you will have access to a proper toilet block.

Liked Lovely little site, pub right next door. Lots of walks directly from the site or a short drive nearby. Host was really friendly and welcoming. Made me feel relaxed and welcomed on my first solo trip! Will definitely be going back.

Plenty of space to park / pitch up. Really clean toilet block with full mirror, sink, water, loo roll etc. Bins next to toilet block. Great little set up!

Local attractions

You’ll have heaps of excellent options around for walks and bike rides – hikers may like to head to Edale (15 minutes’ drive) to walk the first section of the 268-mile Pennine Way, while cyclists try traffic-free trails like the Monsal Trail (15 minutes away) and Tissington Trail (half an hour). And although the scenery around here is endlessly stunning, don’t miss the chance to see what lies under the surface at the showcaves around Castleton (10 minutes). Back up at ground level, you may like to learn the story of the historic plague village of Eyam (15 minutes) or stroll around Buxton (15 minutes), a smart spa town with lots of elegant buildings including a museum and an opera house. For more historic buildings, spend the day at the Chatsworth Estate (25 minutes), National Trust - Lyme (25 minutes) or Haddon Hall (half an hour). Meanwhile, for something thoroughly bright and modern, the rides of Alton Towers are just under an hour away.
