  • Dog-friendly site with gorgeous walks from the door
  • A 15-minute drive from Bakewell; 20 minutes from Chatsworth House
  • Dog-friendly pub in the village of Foolow, 10 minutes’ walk away
Cows and sheep for neighbours, gorgeous walks from the door and a short drive from the likes of Bakewell (home of Bakewell tarts) and Chatsworth House… who could turn down a Peak District getaway at Brosterfield Farm Caravan Park? The site was originally run back in the 70s, as an addition to the then working Brosterfield Farm, before it ceased trading in 2003. The owners bought the farm in 2009 and slowly renovated it into their family home and the existing site – the surrounding acres are owned by themselves and farmed by the local farmer. What a stunning place it is, too: the field is quiet and surrounded by farmland. The main thing is that it’s small and low-key, as the owners want the experience to feel as natural as possible. There are modern showers and toilets. Dogs (up to two per pitch) are also welcome. There are some gorgeous walks from the door – and if you’re keen to dabble in other activities, mountain biking, cycling, shopping, taking photos or simply finding a spot to read a book or sip a drink will be very easy. The local pub is handily dog-friendly (inside and out). It’s only 10 minutes’ walk away in the village of Foolow, a pretty and traditional place with lots of walking trails, a duck pond and the aforementioned country pub with an excellent restaurant, open fires and good ales. Another pub is half an hour’s walk away from the site, and has views over the village.

Ellie C. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Nice flat ground, easy to pitch on. Good facilities, warm and heated bathroom, nice that there was shower gel and things provided. Great location in the beautiful peak district, near Eyam and within walking distance of a local pub (would recommend you book if you want to eat there though!)

Disliked: We camped on side with small road next to us, not busy but if I was to return I would camp on the opposite side.

Shaun L. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Small, quiet site, good facilities and a good location. It is a five minute walk to the Black Bull Inn, and only two miles from Eyam.

Disliked: Signage to the site could be better, as it was easy to miss the small sign stating where the site entrance is. Providing a What3Word location would assist as it would take you directly to the gate.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, we do now have the What3Words on our pre-arrival letter. Thank you for that. I am so pleased you had a lovely stay with us and The Bulls Head is a fabulous pub as you say!

Maybe offer electric in the future

Unpowered grass site

Liked: Lovely quiet site with pitches around the outside and plenty of space to play. Close to plenty of walks and open spaces and a nice distance to walk to and from Bakewell.

Disliked: Would like to suggest it is expensive for a little 2 person mountain tent and no vehicle. However it is in just the right place for us to visit.
