Quiet, rural adults-only site on the Leicestershire-Derbyshire border
Donington Park Circuit and the Cloud Trail both five minutes’ drive
Countryside views; 10 minutes’ walk from the village pub

Liking the sound of direct access to the National Forest, with its miles of scenic forest tracks for walking and cycling? How about adding in views of Derbyshire’s Priory Church of St Mary and St Hardulph atop Breedon Hill? Camping without any kids? If you’ve answered “yes” to all three questions, then you should be heading for Barley Fields Holidays on the Leicestershire-Derbyshire border. This peaceful adults-only site also has stunning views of the Vale of Belvoir to the east and is a 45-minute drive from the edge of the Peak District National Park. And just when you thought things couldn’t get any better, you’ll be pleased to learn that your dogs can join you, the site has modern showers and loos, and – although barbecues are allowed on site – you’re only 10 minutes’ stroll from a popular Breedon on the Hill pub that serves homecooked food. So… on arrival, get set up and… just chill. Life will take care of itself. Sit back, relax, watch the horses in neighbouring fields and see if you can spot/hear any of the following: cuckoos calling in late spring, swallows arriving on their early summer stop-overs and birds of prey circling overhead. And on clear evenings, you’ll be sure to bag a truly spectacular sunset. Sounds good, doesn’t it?

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Our recent caravan stay at this touring site provided a much-needed escape. The serene atmosphere allowed for true relaxation. The facilities were well-maintained and readily accessible. There is WiFi available and an information board by the facilities. We appreciated the spacious pitches, offering ample room for our caravan, awning and vehicle. You are not allocated a pitch so you can choose which space suits ypur needs best. The friendly staff contributed to a welcoming environment. The location offered easy access to charming local attractions. We enjoyed exploring the surrounding countryside and picturesque villages. This touring site provided a memorable experience, and we would happily return as there is so much to see and do locally. Very handy for Donnington park too.

Disliked: Our welcome email went into spam so we had no information when arriving to site, luckily the security gate was open so we were able to access the site and a quick call to Ray, the owner and we were all sorted. We were in the pitch furthest from the facilities and I couldn't get WiFi. Not a huge issue for me but might be for others. The toilets were leaking clean water, again not a huge issue and the owner was busy rectifying this during our stay. This is a brand new site and we would return.

Electric hardstanding touring pitch

Liked: Very peaceful, quiet (adults only) and clean. I love that there is recycling and a mop by the showers so you can leave it as you find it! Lovely warm showers
Everything was very new as the site had just opened. Each hard standing pitch had a tap between 2 so no long treks to top up on water
Very handy for our visit to Donington Park and a great place to unwind. We will be back. Thank you and good luck in for the season
