  • 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.

What customers say

Newfold Farm boasts a gorgeous Peak District spot, ideal for hikers with direct trail access. Guests rave about the new, clean restrooms, helpful staff, and the on-site cafe/pizza oven. While some noted dated pitches/restrooms and occasional noise, the overall vibe is great, with many planning to return.

Grouse primitive grass tent campsite

Liked This is a beautiful campsite, located right at the start of the Pennine way and in the heart of the Peak District. The location couldn't be better for hikers - with Mam Tor behind you and Kinder Scout ahead. Also with two welcoming pubs nearby and on-site cafe and general store, you have everything you need for a relaxing getaway. The facilities were well-maintained and clean, with hot showers, pot washing stations and outdoor taps to clean your muddy boots after the trails. I stayed as a solo camper in December and felt completely safe throughout my visit. Overall, ensuring that your stay is comfortable without losing that authentic outdoor feel.

One of the highlights was at night. Thanks to the lack of light pollution and buildings, you could see countless stars in the night sky. All in all, this campsite is a showcase of natural beauty.

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.
