147km from Sandsend · 5 unitsElm Tree Farm Campsite is a small, adults-only campsite set on our working farm and livery yard in the beautiful village of Barlow, right on the edge of the Peak District. With just five pitches, it’s a countryside escape where you can slow down, switch off, and enjoy the simple charm of rural life.
Wake up to horses grazing nearby, enjoy scenic walks straight from your pitch, then spend the evening relaxing in one of our hammocks with a glass of wine while the sun sets. It’s laid-back camping with nature, fresh air, and chilled country vibes.
As we cater exclusively for fully self-contained units, we don’t provide toilet or shower facilities. We’d also recommend bringing self-levelling blocks, as the site has a gentle slope.
We’re proud to be part of the Campervan and Motorhome Club, and membership is required to book a stay with us.
Facilities include:
Electric hook-up on every pitch
Fresh drinking water
Communal water tap
Chemical waste disposal
Just four minutes from the campsite, you’ll find a lovely private walk around one of our fields with incredible sunset views across the Derbyshire countryside.

- The Peacock at Barlow – 6 mins
- The Tickled Trout – 13 mins
- The Peacock at Cutthorpe – 35 mins
- The Royal Oak – 45 mins (best reached using a walking app to avoid the main road)
