  • 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 primitive grass tent campsite

Liked Great cafe with lovely food.
Post office on site.
Shower facilities were good 👍

Disliked Noisy campers that would not stick to rules of being quiet after 10pm. After a long day hiking that’s the last thing you want.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Perfect location to explore the Hope valley on foot, or take the train and go further afield. Friendly staff and superp views from the pitch. Lovely new shower block too. The pub across the road is well worth a visit if you fancy a night off from cooking! Will definitely be back to explore some more.

Disliked Having to leave!

John B.

Powered cement/asphalt and grass travel trailer campsite

Liked Location was very good for easy access to the Pennine Way, and several other exceptionally great walks. Pitches were adequate albeit a little on the small side.

Disliked Showers were lukewarm in October, spent most of the time pressing buttons for water as they only allow a few seconds of water before they go off again. I suppose this is to save money, but regardless I still think I used the same amount of water just got a sore hand.

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.
