  • 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.

John H.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked This weekend was the third visit to Newfold farm this year. The site is situated in Edale which has a few great pubs and access to fantastic walks in the peaks. The site is well run, has great amenities, the new toilet and shower block and pot washing facilities are first class. Staff are warm and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Fire pits can be hired so after a days walking you can chill with a beer under the stars. The onsite cafe bistro serves lovely food and good selection of beers, wines and spirits. In the summer the outdoor pizza place serves a great selection, but get in quick as it’s popular. Play areas for kids and pitches for motorhomes and campers are spacious.

Disliked The only dislike I have is when I have to go home, because Newfold Farm is such a chilled out site.

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked Facilities were excellent. Clean, large enough so that you weren’t waiting aes for everything. Pot wash inside which is luxury. Super cafe for hearty breakfasts and post walk cakes. And so many brilliant walks right from the site and beautiful views. On site shop was fantastic and a real boon. So good we’re coming back next year

Disliked Really can’t think of anything

Liked Great cafe with lovely food.
Post office on site.
Shower facilities were good 👍

Disliked Noisy campers that would not stick to rules of being quiet after 10pm. After a long day hiking that’s the last thing you want.

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.
