  • 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.

Liked Tent pitches were very well maintained and spacious, toilets and showers were very clean and pleasant, staff were very friendly and welcoming and overall was a very enjoyable campsite. We even got a few visits from wild birds in the early hours of the morning as the sun was rising.

Disliked Nothing, 100% happy with everything at Newbold Farm

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Great location, great scenery and a good base for many walking routes. WiFi and phone signals very intermittent on site. Not an issue for us as we could find a signal to call home when on our walks. Two onsite shower / toilet blocks. One old, one new. Onsite shop & cafe, with two local pubs. Returning from our walks, we stopped at the Ramblers Inn each day for a pint. Overall a great camp site.

Disliked Marked down due to the Shower / toilet blocks not being kept clean.

Liked Fantastic location, walk out the campsite and onto great hikes.

Disliked Tightly packed sloped tent area, no flat areas, cannot park next to tent so lugging tent stuff up hill. New toilet block does not have enough toilets for number of people.

Liked Beautiful location and village. The new shower block was immaculate, my partner was worried about shower and toilet facilities at a camp site but ended very impressed.
Great welcome.
Lovely farm shop cafe.
Pub across the road was very welcoming.

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.
