About the site
Enjoy a peaceful getaway to the countryside at this working farm in the Peak District. Set along the Limestone Way, with the pubs of Monyash close by, the infamous Chatsworth House a 20 minute drive and the picturesque towns of Bakewell and Buxton a 15 minute drive, there is no shortage of things to do nearby. Guests can choose their own grass pitches. The site's adult-only camping field has 30 pitches suitable for tents and trailer tents up to 4m x 4m. While there are 30 non electric grass pitches in the family friendly field which are suitable for tents, trailer tents, campervans, motorhomes and RVs. Please note that the walk to facilities block is slightly longer from the family field. There are also six grass pitches with 16 amp electric hook up, which are in a separate field and are suitable for tents, trailer tents, single and twin axle caravans, motorhomes and campervans. For those after a little more luxury, four adult-only glamping pods sleep up to two guests with two single beds that can form a double! Bedding is provided, but please bring your own towels. Inside is a dining area and kitchenette with a kettle, toaster, fridge, microwave, and single electric hob as well as cutlery, crockery and cooking utensils. Outside is a private patio area with seating, a gas BBQ and a hot tub! Guests can experience firsthand the joys of farm life, with the site's Aberdeen Angus cows and Dorper sheep roaming around! With a handy onsite shop and the option of tasty takeaway pizzas, breakfast baps and croissants (between 1st April and 30th September), your stay is sure to be relaxing. Up to two dogs are allowed on the grass pitches. Dogs are not permitted in the glamping pods. If you're hoping to enjoy dinner al fresco, raised BBQs are permitted. Open fires are only permitted in raised fire pits. Fire baskets are available to hire from the site on arrival and you can also purchase charcoal and wood.

Really enjoyed our stay in the glamping pods and the location and facilities at Knotlow Farm. The hot tub was well maintained and private. We visited Chatsworth at Christmas and this was an excellent location to stay. Would use again. Thanks Knotlow farm for accommodating us 🙂
Very disappointed

Nice place, very relaxing, cabin was lovely and cosy. Toilets and showers were very clean. Very disappointed with the hot tub not being cleaned properly, there was a horrible layer of bubbly scum on top every time we went in. I don't think the filters had been cleaned and there was way too much chlorine as well that really hurt your eyes...very poor. Also I wouldn't have booked if I didn't know that the pizza service and breakfast service wasn't available. I wasn't told that even on the phone call I had with the lady before our visit. She basically said bring plenty of supplies, which was fine, but why advertise pizza and breakfast but don't mention you don't do it in winter? Also the coffee machine in the toilet and shower room had no cups. I felt I should get some sort of a refund for the poor hot tub and poor food service that was non existent.
Great Site
