Wild Camping at Barkerfields Farm

喜欢 The sight is really flat and we were able to chose where we pitched.
The absolute peace and tranquility and the stunning countryside views. The porta - loos were also really clean and smelt lovely :)
We spoke with the owner who said she kept a maximum of 20 pitches so the site never feels busy. There were only 10 other tents when we were there and only 4 others when we initially arrived :)

不喜欢 nothing

喜欢 Great wild campsite in a beautiful area. It was very quiet when we stayed but probably due to the weather not being great. We stayed in the Bertie Bell tent which was perfect for our needs. Toilets were clean and there’s a sink for washing up etc. Monyash is about a mile away - there’s a good pub serving traditional food - we ate and drank there. Good walks in Lathkill Dale.

不喜欢 Not a negative but… It’s open to the elements so be prepared.

喜欢 We liked it all. Owners were friendly and did their best to keep the site clean and tidy. The toilets were the nicest/cleanest portable ones we've used.
The field isn't over run, think there was around 10 campers and everyone got to pick their own spot. Lovely and relaxing, would definitely recommend.

喜欢 I stayed here with my preschool aged child for three nights. It is a quiet, basic camp, which is why I chose it. The owner left us to it but was easy to contact if necessary. The portaloos were extremely clean.

We would happily return, hopefully with better weather next time!

喜欢 Easy, no frills affair if you’re after a place to pitch up for a night or 2.
Not far from Bakewell.

不喜欢 Could’ve done with a station to wash pots / pans if I was being overly critical

来自经理: Thank you for your review, we’re pleased you enjoyed your stay. We do provide a sink to wash pots etc, maybe you missed spotting it? It is cold water however but suitable for drinking too. Hope you’ll visit again next year.

喜欢 Perfect off grid escape with beautiful views. Bags of space to pitch up. You can use your car to unload and then park a few 100m away or so. Having minimal cars made it perfect for my two young sons to crawl and run about without worry.

Facilities are basic (as advertised) but kept very clean. The owner popped round everyone early evening to offer firewood for sale if needed. We didn’t take this up as the kids were exhausted from the days fun and already in bed but lots of people did take up the offer and it was nice to see everyone with their little campfires.

不喜欢 Nothing - just don’t expect phone signal or fancy facilities. This was a very peaceful off grid experience.

来自经理: We’re pleased you enjoyed your stay and like the feeling of the place. We do try to keep it basic as to keep the wild camping feel. We especially try to make it safe for children and pets to play as we are a family friendly campsite.
I’m pleased you found the facilities clean enough to comment on. We really do try to keep them clean and always stocked with loo roll.
Hope you’ll come again next year.

喜欢 Village and local pub are nice. Toilets are clean

不喜欢 Road to walk to village is unlit

来自经理: Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It’s a shame that’s you’ve marked us down for something we had no control over : The road.
The road is a country road which often means that they are unlit at night.
We are pleased you enjoyed the village once you got there though.

喜欢 Location is fantastic.

不喜欢 Site isn't monitored. Person was camped right next to the bathrooms (portaloos) which isn't too private. (Should be a cordoned area to give privacy) Ended up next too two couples who were drinking and playing music until 00:20. Site boasts quiet times etc. Such a shame because it's a great location.

来自经理: Thank you Peter for taking the time to leave this rather interesting review. I must say I’ve never had one like it before!
As a wild campsite we allow people to pitch up wherever they choose, something which everyone likes about the site. Maybe you need to consider why someone would pitch up so close to the facilities? Maybe they had mobility issues etc.
You are correct about a no music policy and quiet times and always have our phone number on our confirmation booking info and around our site so people can contact us if there are any problems including noise. No one contacted us that evening including yourselves to tell us about the noise. If I’d have known about the noise I would have asked them to be quiet
We are a working farm so do say on our site info that we are sometimes not on site. I always check on the campsite several times throughout the day though between farming jobs and when we check the facilities and sell firewood. I always check around 10pm to 10.30pm to check for noise etc.
We’re pleased you enjoyed the location which boasts 360 degrees countryside views though.
