  • Dog-friendly site with gorgeous walks from the door
  • A 15-minute drive from Bakewell; 20 minutes from Chatsworth House
  • Dog-friendly pub in the village of Foolow, 10 minutes’ walk away
Cows and sheep for neighbours, gorgeous walks from the door and a short drive from the likes of Bakewell (home of Bakewell tarts) and Chatsworth House… who could turn down a Peak District getaway at Brosterfield Farm Caravan Park? The site was originally run back in the 70s, as an addition to the then working Brosterfield Farm, before it ceased trading in 2003. The owners bought the farm in 2009 and slowly renovated it into their family home and the existing site – the surrounding acres are owned by themselves and farmed by the local farmer. What a stunning place it is, too: the field is quiet and surrounded by farmland. The main thing is that it’s small and low-key, as the owners want the experience to feel as natural as possible. There are modern showers and toilets. Dogs (up to two per pitch) are also welcome. There are some gorgeous walks from the door – and if you’re keen to dabble in other activities, mountain biking, cycling, shopping, taking photos or simply finding a spot to read a book or sip a drink will be very easy. The local pub is handily dog-friendly (inside and out). It’s only 10 minutes’ walk away in the village of Foolow, a pretty and traditional place with lots of walking trails, a duck pond and the aforementioned country pub with an excellent restaurant, open fires and good ales. Another pub is half an hour’s walk away from the site, and has views over the village.

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Beautiful location set back from the main road in a very peaceful spot. Great modern facilities, including lovely shower block and toilets. Very well maintained facility and a lovely addition to great customer service was meeting the owner in the morning walking her dog who was checking in to see how our day was. Pub about 10 minute walk up the road with lovely food. Our kids had a lot of fun staying here!

Disliked: There was an issue with the electrics as the shower block is new so the power tripped a couple of times. The owner wanted to make sure we were okay the next morning and explained they have found the problem which will be fixed in the next couple of days. Even with that happening it wasn’t an issue for us as the place overall was really lovely. as this is a new site that has only just opened. It would be great to include a few activities for kids in the grounds. Just a small play area with a swing and slide would go down very well. Other than that plenty of room for playing with a ball, we had a lovely stay!

Non-electric grass tent, campervan or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Lovely field to camp, level and plenty of grass for the kids to play, facilities were nice and clean, owner was friendly and approachable, family friendly, great pub 10 minutes away, lots of butterflies and bats to watch from our pitch.

Disliked: We didn’t dislike anything, as a new campsite a family shower room would be useful to add in the future.
