Higher Whitemore Farm

7.3 3 reviews

Grassy pitches surrounded by countryside

Peaceful dog-friendly farm site in the Staffordshire countryside
On the Granite Way; 20 mins' drive to the Peak District National Park
Barbecues allowed; pubs, restaurants and food shops nearby

Setting off for Staffordshire with walking boots in hand? You can certainly give them a good workout while staying at Higher Whitemore Farm, just outside the little town of Biddulph and about a 10-minute drive from Congleton. The views from here look out over the countryside of Staffordshire and Cheshire, giving something of a hint as to some of the places you might be able to get out for a ramble nearby. You can wander straight out onto footpaths just outside the site – the Gritstone Way passes by, and there are also great trails leading to Biddulph Grange Gardens or Mow Cop Castle (handily passing several pubs along the way…) On top of all that, you’ll be close to walks along local canals, climbs up to the top of The Cloud for stunning views, and wanders around some fab National Trust estates too. A cycle path runs past the site too, on its route from Congleton to Biddulph, and there are plenty of places to go fishing. And if all that’s not enough to satisfy your ambitions, it’s worth noting that the Derbyshire border is close by too – and the edge of the Peak District National Park about 20 minutes’ drive away. If this sounds like something your dog might enjoy too, there’s good news in that dogs are welcome on site, and even provided with their own dog park to have a run about off lead. There’s plenty of space for kids to play in the woodland parts of the farm too, and you’re welcome to set up barbecues as well.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: The views are spectacular.

Disliked: We were confronted almost immediately when we arrived and told we had not paid enough. £20 sounded reasonable for five people on a sloping field with nothing but a portaloo but apparently she charges per tent so she wanted another £4O from us up front. Safe to say we left after one night. Also its important to note that its right next to a motorbike race field so be prepared for constant engines! We weren't terribly impressed to say the least.

From the manager: We don’t think they understand it’s per tent not for 5 adults.
Confronted was due to me working in the garden as they where dropped off,
They had the pick of were to tent,
They so untrue with comments.

great place if you have the weather kids loved the woods and camp fire
