Crossgate Farm Campsite

Crossgate Farm Campsite is a family-run site nestled in the village of Tintwistle, in the Derbyshire hills between Manchester and Sheffield, close to Arnfield Reservoir.

Part of a private equestrian yard, the grounds have a relaxed atmosphere and visitors may encounter horses, goats, chickens, and peacocks. Facilities include showers, wash-up areas, and an on-site bar, restaurant, and café.

The reservoir is just a four-minute walk downhill and offers sport fly-fishing and rowing boats for hire, while nearby launch points allow paddle-boarding for a small fee.

The site sits at the start of some well-regarded walking and cycling routes, including trails on the Pennine Bridleway. Dogs and families are welcome.
