Lovely site with plenty of amenities. Loved the live music and the drinks and food stands. Could do with some outdoor lighting near the outdoor bar.

Everything was perfect with the facilities, entertainment, and food and drink options for adults and children. The only negative would be the toilets. My wife used them and they were extremely busy, not particularly clean and smelled bad.
Another amazing stay with friends

Absolutely fantastic campsite. The additional extras included as part of the bank holiday weekend were exceptional. From live bands to wood fired pizzas and the very lovely staff at the hot food van. This place goes from strength to strength each year we come.
Superb location and facilities

It's the third (and best) time we have stayed here in a group. The campsite is well organised and the facilities are clean and regularly maintained. The site is somewhat hilly so you have to be thoughtful when orienting your tent, but the views are amazing and the access to the moors for lovely walks and scenery is on your doorstep. Despite it being a BH weekend they don't overbook the fields, so there's plenty room. Perfect location.
Great campsite!

We have stayed here many times and each year we are pleasantly pleased with the campsite! Clean, spacious, great location and amazing views from any area of the campsite. Very dog friendly which is a bonus, two pubs walking distance from the campsite and lovely walks all very close by. Staff are very helpful and friendly too! Would definitely recommend.
Highly recommend

Was a great weekend in a lovely location. My only complaint would be that I had a gentleman knocking on my shower door asking when I would be out. Wouldn't usually mind, but I'd only been in there 10 minutes.

It was our first visit to Barn Farm. Really enjoyed our stay this weekend. Great staff and always helpful.The only thing that I think should be improved is a bigger catering trailer as waiting for food took over half an hour, the food was good quality and friendly staff. I'm sure we will visit again next year.
Great campsite!

Great campsite, perfect for the kids with plenty for them to do! Campsite arranged some good entertainment throughout the weekend and the facilities were spotless. Showers were a little too hot but other than that… perfect!
Good weekend but poor toilets

The facilities were great in that there were food services, bar services etc but the fast food (burger & chips stand) was ridiculously slow. She just could not cope with the amount of people and cooked on demand, which I felt didn't work. The pizza service was brilliant and very well organised. The toilet and shower facilities were a bit messy, and smelly. The toilets were blocked, ran out of toilet roll and hot water for showers and pit washing also ran out. Not enough showers to meet demand, with long queues and then no white water. My children had a lukewarm shower only once. This could do with improvement. The water pressure at the drinking water taps also dropped because of the demand. The toilets never smelled clean and of cleaning products, though staff were in there quite a bit. The bands and entertainment was excellent. The security could have done better at controlling the few people who forgot they were on a family camp site, not at Glastonbury at 2am. Apart from the toilets, showers, cleanliness and hot water issue everything else was great.
Excellent

Lovely family park, the bank holiday entertainment was wonderful. Super facilities and very clean and tidy. We would definitely go back :-)
A good set-up for children, not the most relaxing for adults

We stayed in high summer and it was very popular with big family groups and young kids. It had a "festival" vibe and was pretty lively. They had visiting butty, coffee and pizza vans. The toilets were clean and the basic facilities were good. The shop was a bit disappointing as many campsite shops nowadays stock nice local produce, and this one doesn't. I thought the opening times were also erratic. The village itself is beautiful with walks starting directly from the campsite, and the food at the Red Lion was brilliant. It may be more peaceful at other times of the year but for those wanting a quiet countryside stay, this probably isn't it. Overall not for us, but great for many I'm sure.
Great location

Great place. Customer service could be friendlier and more helpful, but otherwise it's a great location and a well run campsite.
Perfect Peak experience

We've been visiting Barn Farm for years. It's in an excellent location and has all the facilities you could wish for - whether you're an old hand or whether you're new to camping. We thought reception staff could be more welcoming, but the campsite as a whole is well looked after. We had a great time!
Very good experience

This is our first time camping and we have had a great experience. We found the facilities here are clean and the shower room is open 24 hours. Highly recommend, especially for the beginner.

Stayed for 5 nights with a 4 year old. Lovely site, plenty to do on site, games room, park outdoor games for children, shop, washing machine, fridge and freezers and even a sunbed to use. Lovely and clean toilets, showers and pot washing areas cleaned regularly. Plenty of local walks, 2 pubs within walking distance. Little one loved the peacocks and alpacas too.Will definitely be returning.

The location was brilliant and all the facilities were clean, as was the site. Our only issue was that we stayed on the first field as you enter the site and it was a real distance for the toilet with young kids. Also, on the wall near the washing up area, a light kept flashing all night and was really annoying when you tried to sit and relax. Apart from that, it was a brilliant site and we will definitely be back.
Beautiful place to stay

Such a clean and well maintained site, spectacular views all around. Spacious pitches with your own water tap. Lovely and quiet at night time. Friendly staff who are very helpful, including the security chap who was lovely to talk to and gave us some very helpful directions. We had a great time and look forward to going back.

We thought Barn Farm was a lovely site - we chose it as we were able to book as a group of families with young children. The playground field was perfect for us - the children could play and it was safe as there weren't cars driving through all the time. The children enjoyed the resident peacocks and the games room too. There were other groups on the field, but it was a little crowded and it was quiet at night (apart from the peacocks in the morning!). We would definitely return to this site again.
Perfect

Great facilities. Would have liked a fire pit, but all in all, very good and will come again.
