  • Small and friendly farm site three miles outside historic Selby
  • Within easy driving distance of Leeds, York and the Yorkshire Dales
  • Woodland walks and bike rides from the site
While holing up in the countryside, it’s only natural that one might every now and then fancy sipping on a pint down at the local village pub. If you’re partial to such pursuits, it's handy that a good inn down the road from Moss Hagg Farm Campsite serves real ales alongside a menu of pub food. As well as being close to the local pub and a simple drive to historic Yorkshire hotspots like Bolton Abbey, Carlton Towers, Nostell Priory, Harewood House and Castle Howard, access to York’s handsome historic core and the Yorkshire Dales is easy from here too. The splendid beaches at Hornsea, Withernsea and Scarborough are an hour and 15 minutes' drive away. Moss Hagg is a small and friendly farm site three miles from the North Yorkshire town of Selby and its shops, inns, medieval abbey and 15th-century gatehouse. If you’re more of a wildlife-watching sort, you may like to note that the forested area from which the farm takes its name is a nature haven and is also a pretty spot for a shaded stroll or a woodland bike ride. The pitches look out across open country fields, and facilities on site include drinking water taps, showers and toilets.

What customers say

This friendly, family-run farm campsite offers a peaceful, secluded setting with spacious pitches and clean facilities. While many guests enjoyed the quiet atmosphere and pleasant surroundings, some noted road noise. A common point of feedback is the pay-as-you-go system for showers and hot water, with guests preferring an inclusive price. Some also mentioned a lack of nearby amenities for dog walking. Manager comments addressed concerns about flies and behaviour issues.

Liked Site has everything you need at a reasonable price
Friendly owners
Bring coin change for showers and washing up.
Showers £1
Washing up 20p
Pitch size is good and well marked out
Male showers just a shower curtain for privacy.
Owners hosted a reform party/event on the Saturday so the toilets suffered a little.
There is some road noise but nothing major and did not spoil our stay or our sleep at all.

Local attractions

Settled on the outskirts of Selby, the farm is just about equidistant between the Yorkshire cities of Leeds and York, both of which have their own vibe. For history, handsome architecture and a bygone feel, head to York; for shopping centres, nightlife and street food cuisine, speed to lovely Leeds. Out of the urban centres, Moss Hagg Farm Campsite is also well placed for day trips to the Yorkshire coast and its award-winning beaches at Hornsea, Withernsea and Scarborough. A little closer to home inland, the Yorkshire Dales are a cinch to reach too. If you’ve got kids in tow, attractions like York Dungeon, the National Railway Museum and Chocolate Story in York should keep them (and you) more than amused; if instead you’re heading into Leeds, the meerkats, butterfly house and reptile enclosures at Tropical World are sure to be smash hits.
