What customers say
Moss Side Farm is a peaceful, adults-only campsite on a working farm, highly recommended for its stunning views, tranquil atmosphere, and friendly hosts. Visitors appreciate the spacious pitches, proximity to walking routes, and the charm of roaming farm animals. Facilities are described as basic but clean and functional. While some mention rocky ground, the overall experience is overwhelmingly positive, with many planning return visits. A few reviews note occasional noise from other campers or basic facilities.

Liked The view next to the fields was gorgeous! Right next to a walk to the local village. It is a working farm so there are so many lovely animals wandering around. Staff were lovely. Toilets and showers were all good. Working dogs were very friendly which was nice, if you love animals, you’ll love it here. A very relaxed campsite!

Basic site with amazing views
Non-electric grass campervan, tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Cute little site, with fantastic views. I loved seeing the sheep, horses, chickens and ducks. Basic as advertised, but I love that, very peaceful. The owner, Louise, was friendly and helpful. you like proper camping and a really rural feel it's perfect.
Disliked The only thing I could suggest is lowering the water tap, as I found it awkward holding my water but and the tap.

Liked lovely, quiet and dog friendly campsite. loved the spacious pitches with multiple options to set up on (ground level pitches, hidden back field or steep hill with lovely views). I also loved the farmyard animals which gave the site a lovely rustic appeal.
