  • Small and friendly site based on a working dairy farm
  • On the edge of Cannock Chase; 15 minutes' drive from central Stafford
  • Local pub, farm shop and pick your own within a two-mile radius
There's a lot to like about breaks on this working dairy farm near Stafford. For starters, Moors Covert Farm Camping is on the edge of the Cannock Chase Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, a 26-square-mile playground for walkers, cyclists, horse trekkers and outdoor activity types. The site is also next to the Staffordshire Way, so head for this neck of the woods if you're looking to wander far and wide. This back-to-basics spot likes to keep things simple and straightforward. There's ample space on these well-kept grounds for guests and their gear – just turn up with your pals, kids or bikes and let the good times roll. About two miles from base there's also a top-rated pub; head along here to get those good times off to a flying start. The folk that run this place do their best to keep you sweet with their locally produced honey; they also sell free-range eggs and other supplies. Got a taste for home-grown grub? Head to the local farm shop, about a mile away, for more farm-to-fork goodies. There's also a pick-your-own down the road where you can pluck the plumpest-looking pumpkins when they're in season. Looking to stock up at a proper supermarket or grab a takeaway? Drive 15 minutes down the road to get to Stafford city centre.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Great site attended with my 6 year old and some friend with there young children. The kids could safely run up and down the field as only one access gate. Facilities were spotless, toilet nice and clean, washing up area and fridge greatly appreciated. Farmer let us know when milking was taking place and showed us around the farm.

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: This place is amazing I highly recommend, we loved it so much. We stayed here only one night but would have loved to spend a long weekend here. The owners are lovely, the campsite is clean and tidy, grass cut nicely and I felt safe there. Toilet was spotless and they have this little thing next to toilet with fridge and honey for sale. My son is 8 he loved this campsite and wants to go back. It’s very relaxing at this campsite can sit on your chair outside and listen to all the wildlife x

Primitive grass tent campsite

Liked: Absolutely lovely little site. Easy to find. Liked being able to choose our own pitch. The children loved seeing the lambs and the calves. Toilets and washing up area were nice and clean. A basic quiet site but that’s exactly what we wanted.

Disliked: Nothing

Local attractions

Moors Covert Farm Camping is a peaceful spot, but it's also well connected: Junction 13 of the M6 is close by, making it a doddle to zip from north to south and back again. There's much more to life than shopping – this is the countryside, after all – but when the sales are on at Trentham Shopping Village (30 minutes' drive down the M6) they can be pretty hard to resist. There's also a monkey park here, a little fact that may well help you bribe the kids to come along… For outdoor adventure, make tracks for the off-road Segways for rent at Birches Valley (10 minutes). Here you'll also find a visitor centre to help you get your bearings and a Go Ape where you can survey your surrounds from above. For more time in the open air, grab your rod and make your way over to Calf Heath reservoir (15 minutes), a well-stocked carp lake. There's also a recommended riding stables on the Chase (five minutes) – trot down here if you'd like lessons, treks or just some time in the saddle.
