  • Family-run dairy farm and fishery with views over The Roaches
  • 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.

What customers say

Great spot on a working farm with ripper views and a chill vibe. Staff are legends, facilities are spick and span, and the farm shop's a lifesaver. Perfect for hikers and country lovers. A few reckon facilities are a bit basic, can get busy, and a bit noisy now and then.

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked It was a lovely area, we was able to pick our own pitch for our tent! Plenty of space, the farm shop had all essentials needed and lots of treats! The milkshakes were lovely & the ice cream! Toilets were clean! We rented a fire pit for the night which was a lovely little touch! We will definitely be returning!

Unpowered grass tent, campervan or trailer tent site

Liked Really good farm shop and honestly really conveniently placed camp site, being a 5 minute drive from leek which had everything you need and 10 minutes from the entrance to the Peak District

Disliked Only one shower and one proper toilet (not a portaloo) on the right field, so queues likely if you are to go on a busy weekend.

Recommend to friends Visit again

Will definitely go back for a weekend break

Liked Lovely friendly site..staff showed us around on arrival.
Had a great pitch with beautiful views.
Ice cream delicious and farm animals gorgeous.

Liked Great views and walks all around, friendly lady runs it, lovely farm animals and shop. Went on bank holiday weekend but the second field was opened up so didn't feel crowded. Easy 15 min walk along quiet road to pub. No issues with noise at night or queues for loos :-)

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.
