Glamping in the Peak District
For guests who love the idea of camping but would rather skip the hassle of bringing and pitching their own tent, Brosterfield’s glamping option offers a simpler way to stay outdoors. Set in the same peaceful Peak District surroundings as the rest of the site, the bell-tent glamping experience gives you the atmosphere of camping with a little more ease from the moment you arrive.
Choose from Paddington’s unfurnished bell tent with a log burner, which sleeps up to 5 guests (with 2 included in the base price), or Paddington’s partially furnished cabin, ideal for 2 people. Both options provide a relaxed, back-to-nature experience without the need to set everything up yourself.
Paddington's Cabin
The cabin is perfect for guests looking for a cosy, peaceful retreat with a little more comfort than traditional camping. With a double bed at its heart (simply bring your own bedding and linen), it offers a warm and inviting space to relax after a day exploring the Peak District.
Inside, soft lighting and a comfortable sofa create a calm, homely feel—ideal for unwinding in the evenings, whether you’re reading, chatting, or just enjoying the quiet. Set within its own individual area, the cabin also gives you a sense of privacy and space, making it a great choice for couples wanting a simple, secluded escape that still feels close to nature.

Camping spirit, less effort
Brosterfield’s glamping is perfect for guests who still want to feel close to nature but do not want to transport, pitch and pack away a full camping setup. You still get the sounds of the countryside, the open skies and the simple pleasure of being outdoors, just with your accommodation already waiting for you.
Paddingtons Bell Tent is designed as a simpler alternative to standard camping, it works especially well for guests who want a more relaxed arrival day, a cosy base for walking weekends, or a first step into outdoor holidays without going fully back-to-basics. The log burner also helps make the space feel warm and inviting on cooler evenings.
Facilities & essentials
Glamping guests have access to the same practical site facilities as other guests, including showers, toilets, a pot washing area and drinking water. WiFi is also available, with access details provided on booking.
The site’s location adds another level of convenience too. There is a well-regarded village pub a short walk away, and Brosterfield is within easy reach of Peak District favourites including Chatsworth House, Bakewell, Castleton and the Monsal Trail, so there is plenty to do nearby without having to travel far
Good to know before you arrive
Glamping check-in is from 4pm and check-out is by 10am. The site keeps the same quiet, low-key atmosphere across all stays, so it is not the place for parties, loud music or large group bookings. That is part of what makes it so appealing for guests wanting a calmer countryside break.
Two dogs are allowed in glamping tents, making the bell tents a good option for guests who want to bring four-legged companions along for walks and pub stops in the surrounding area.
Explore, unwind and settle in
A glamping stay at Brosterfield gives you the best of both worlds: you can spend the day out walking, cycling, sightseeing or visiting local villages and attractions, then come back to a bell tent that is already in place and ready for you. It is a lovely way to enjoy the outdoors without committing to a full traditional camping setup.
A simpler way to enjoy the outdoors
If you want the atmosphere of camping with less effort and a little extra comfort, Brosterfield’s glamping is a great fit. Peaceful, practical and beautifully placed in the Peak District, it offers an easy route into outdoor stays while keeping the natural, low-key feel that makes Brosterfield special.
