  • Short drive to Alton Towers, Peak Wildlife Park and Tittesworth Water
  • On-site farm shop and farm animals; 10 minutes' walk to two local pubs
Set on the southern edge of the Peak District National Park, Brooklyn Grange Farm is a back-to-basics site on a family-run dairy farm surrounded by gorgeous Staffordshire countryside. The scenery here is varied indeed, with views over quiet fishing pools, grassy meadows and the spectacular rocky ridge known as The Roaches. You'll also be well placed to sample local produce at this small-scale site – you can head to the farm shop, which sells eggs, bacon, sausages, cheese, barbecue meats and other goodies, or grab a local ice cream, milkshake or fresh milk from the on-site Milk Barn. You're welcome to light up a barbecue, as long as it's kept off the grass. If you don't have your own, there are firepits for hire (a cash deposit is required) from the farm shop and kindling and logs for sale. There's also a village pub and carvery around 10 minutes' walk away on the edge of Thorncliffe (with another around 10 minutes' walk away in Blackshaw Moor). For more flavours, try Leek (five minutes' drive), a local market town with a good range of restaurants, cafés and food shops. After a trip to town it's back to the countryside, where you might like to try a spot of catch-and-return fishing at one of the site's well-stocked ponds (for an extra fee, to be booked and paid for at the on-site farm shop; you must have an Environment Agency licence; no fishing available during the spawning season, which is generally in late May and/or early June). You could also take yourself off for a hike in the national park (a mile away), where there are many miles of well-mapped trails to explore. As for facilities, Brooklyn Grange Farm has functional and well-maintained toilets for guests. There is one shower available here (bookable for an extra charge at the farm shop), or you can take the option of travelling five minutes down the road to Brough Park Leisure Centre.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: We loved the location of the farm which is situated in a walking distance to a pub or a beautiful park and lake ( Tittesworth Water).Toilets are clean.
The farm itself was lovely, the owners friendly and helpful. Their ice cream is a must try, so delicious and generous portion!
Thanks

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: The surroundings were nice, lots of space, no real issues, toilets were portloos but very clean and nothing like a festival so cannot be faulted. Near the roaches and easy access to Bakewell and various little towns.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: lovely semi wild camp with fab views of the roaches , hen cloud. location is perfect for visiting many places and leek town is just down the road , it has washing up sinks . drinking water and toilets. we only use the water tap. wash dishes at tent easy enough boil a pan of water then add some cold and some washing up liquid , also take own camping loo. it's easy enough to be self sufficient. if the site added all kinds of luxuries it will no longer be a semi wild camp snd therfore wouldn't appeal to us. plz don't change a thing .

Disliked: maybe the wind at times it can get gusty ! but it's open on high ground so its to be expected.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Loved the farm and the views of the hikes I was doing! Toilets are really good but we’re getting really dirty throughout the day.
I liked the easy facilities, skip for a bin and open washing up sinks
How close both mountains were only a 7 minute drive to The Roaches

I really like the check out time being later so you can have a slow morning

Disliked: A lot of people camped very close by the toilets and this made going a very awkward walk, the family were listening to explicit songs too so I wouldn’t have been happy if I had my daughter with me. I was told I couldn’t camp near the lake as it was reserved for fishing, however I watched 4 people pitch up lake side who were not fishing and nothing was said to them.
In the shop I was made to feel slightly awkward that I was on my own, the lady kept repeating I had booked 2 adults and I was trying to explain the site automatically does this even though I booked for one person. Also the farm dogs roam around the campsite all day and night taking food and drinking your dogs water it’s no issue but they poo near your campsite and there’s no one to pick it up but you. If you had a dog that did not liked to be approached this may be an issue for you.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Loved this campsite. It is a working farm so it’s really nice to watch all the animals. Farm shop has milkshakes, ice creams and quite a lot of other bits too. Toilets were clean and shower was worth the extra £2.50 too.

Primitive grass tent, campervan or trailer tent campsite

Liked: Great little farm shop on site everything was fresh and the prices were great we expected to pay a lot more for the quality we got and even bought more to take home with us as we were leaving, milkshakes are also amazing! The hosts were really kind and polite, clean site with well looked after pitches, kids loved that we could go and see the animals.

Disliked: There was a problem with the portaloos on the last day due to a few people on site that I watched emptying their waste in and all over them but we were offered an alternative and the hosts did their best to sort the issue it absolutely wasn’t their fault at all.

Local attractions

Make your way to the wild rides of Alton Towers (20 minutes' drive), the UK's biggest theme park. If your idea of fun doesn't include days full of white-knuckle rollercoaster rides, another family-friendly option is Peak Wildlife Park (10 minutes). For those rainy days, it's not far to reach Blaze Farm and The Potty Sheep (20 minutes), an ice cream farm which also organises paint-a-pot activities. For further agreeable outings, head to the Churnet Valley Railway (15 minutes) or the Manifold Valley (10 minutes) and Thor's Cave (20 minutes). You could go hiking and climbing at The Roaches (10 minutes), visiting Lud's Church (10 minutes) as an add-on. And where else to set your sights on? Trails Day (20 minutes' walk), a centre where guests can learn to ride a trial bike, or Tittesworth Reservoir (10 minutes' drive) for watersports and walking, and Madrenaline Activities (15 minutes) for archery and axe-throwing. Rudyard Lake (15 minutes) has a miniature railway too. A bit of luxury? You'll find it in the elegant grounds of Biddulph Grange Gardens (20 minutes), a local National Trust property, or in Buxton (20 minutes), an old spa town across the border in Derbyshire with a range of plush places to eat and drink.
