  • 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.

Grouse non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: 10/10 campsite. Perfect location if you love walking, the best on site facilities we’ve been too. Great cafe which also serves alcohol, bbqs on a Friday and fresh pizzas on a sat. Pub within a minutes walking distance which is also lovely. Staff were all so friendly and helpful. The views are amazing all round and on the field we stayed on you chose our own pitch which was good.

Disliked: Nothing at all. Couldn’t get WiFi on the field we were on but honestly don’t know why anyone would need or want this with the views all around. If you do then you can pick it up by the cafe

Sparrowhawk non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked: The views wow, the walks from the campsite are amazing you don’t need to use the car at all, lovely little shop on site very friendly staff. The showers and toilets were very clean and the showers are free that’s a bonus, even the “old” toilets weren’t in the worst condition we have stayed in places that are a lot worse!! Very clean site.

Disliked: A little more than we usually pay £94.00 for two night is a little steep but it wouldn’t put us of coming back!!

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked: Lovely stay great walks from the site gorgeous views excellent new facilities, one suggestion maybe a mop and bucket or floor squeedgee to clean shower after use as muddy from last person and couldnt clean it before using the shower

Disliked: Campervan pitches very close to each other felt overcrowded especially when using a fire pit with a motor home right next to our awning felt abit unsafe ! was a shame cos the tent pitches look great very spaced out

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.
