Upper Booth Farm

The gentle rush of Hope Valley's trout stream provides a constant, soothing soundtrack as you pitch beneath the shadow of Kinder Scout's dark gritstone edge. This working hill farm sits right on the Pennine Way, where walkers emerge mud-spattered from Jacob's Ladder or prepare for the moorland challenge ahead, while swallows dart between stone barns built when these valleys first knew agriculture.

Serious walkers and their four-legged companions will find themselves perfectly positioned here in the heart of the northern Peak District. Edale village lies within easy reach, though Upper Booth's location beside the Pennine Way means you're already where the best routes begin. This is classic Dark Peak territory—dramatic, high, and utterly rewarding for those who come prepared with proper boots and waterproofs.

Facilities are straightforward and functional: showers and toilets serve the grassy tent pitches scattered along the streamside. Dogs are welcome for a small charge, making this a favourite with those tackling long-distance trails. Ask about campfires on arrival—permissions may vary depending on conditions. The atmosphere is pleasingly no-nonsense, focused on what matters: access to outstanding walking and the timeless rhythms of a genuine Pennine hill farm.
