  • Peaceful, isolated site on a secluded Lancashire farm
  • A half-hour drive from Blackpool beach and Forest of Bowland
  • Simple grass pitches down a long farm track, 10 minutes from the M6
Oh to be on a peaceful, secluded spot in the lovely Lancashire countryside, with forests, the Lakes and big cities not far off… such is the atmosphere at Moss Rose Campsite, a relaxing site about 10 minutes’ drive from the M6 and half an hour north of Preston. This is a splendid spot for those who’d like a bit of peace and quiet – pitches are on a simple grass field well away from any neighbours. You’ll have to travel down a long farm track to get here (it’s rather rough and bumpy, so take it slowly) but the reward is a spacious and secluded stay on a small traditional family-run working farm with views out over fields of farm animals. (The owners describe it as ‘somewhat alike to The Darling Buds of May’, for those who remember such telly treats.) Because of those farm animals, dogs are welcome as long as they are well behaved and kept under control. Kids are also very welcome, and you’re able to set up barbecues for your evening meal (as long as you’re careful with them…) There’s a pub a couple of miles away if you fancy a pint or a bite to eat. Day trips around here might take you to the coast at Blackpool or Morecambe, inland to the Forest of Bowland or Lake District or for a bit of city action in Liverpool or Manchester, both of which are a little over an hour’s drive away (also making this site also a good place for city dwellers who fancy a quick escape without a long drive).

What customers say

Moss Rose Campsite: peaceful setting, spacious pitches. Owners are super friendly, honesty shop well-stocked, great for families (play area!). Nature and wildlife a big draw. Facilities basic but clean, though cubicles can be small. Access road occasionally tricky.

Doyles Dell - Fully Enclosed unpowered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site (secluded)

Liked Loved the back to nature relaxed feel of the campsite. How campsites used to be , no wardens watching over you . Lovely owners on hand for anything you need . And so peaceful just what we needed .The enclosed pitch we stayed in Doyles Dell was fabulous especially for our elderly boxer dog who just likes to chill . So the fact we were private was great but still able to see everyone enjoying themselves in the main campsite . Also love the fact you can have a campfire which for us makes the whole camping experience lovely. We stayed in a campervan but will also stay in a tent or any of their glamping tents / pods which looked amazing 👏

Disliked As other campers have said more toilets & showers but that is being sorted other than that thumbs up from us 😊

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked We recently stayed at Moss Rose Campsite as a family group, booking four pitches plus the new enclosed dog exercise pitch, and we had an absolutely fantastic time.

The campsite is beautiful, peaceful, and wonderfully serene – the perfect place to switch off, relax, and get back to nature. The surroundings are stunning, with plenty of space to explore and enjoy the tranquillity.

The children absolutely loved the centrally located playground and spent hours playing there, as well as running around the various paths throughout the site. It felt incredibly safe and family-friendly, allowing them the freedom to enjoy the outdoors.

We also booked the newly added enclosed pitch but used it as a dog exercise area! It gave our dogs the opportunity to run and play off lead in a secure environment, which was a real highlight for us.

Bathrooms were small, basic but clean, there was an honesty shop, covering drinks, snacks and mobile phone charging.

Overall, we had an amazing stay and made some wonderful family memories. If you’re looking for a quiet, scenic campsite with great facilities for children, we couldn’t recommend Moss Rose Campsite highly enough. We can’t wait to return!

Doyles Dell - Fully Enclosed unpowered grass campervan, tent or trailer tent site (secluded)

Liked Lovely place, my grandkids had a ball and didn’t want to leave.
Owners really friendly and welcoming.
Liked that we could buy some treats and essentials from the honesty shack. There is also a fridge, microwave and coffee machine which you can buy the pods for.
Liked that we could park next to the tent.

Disliked The shower/toilet block is a bit small with only a very small sink.

Local attractions

Before you get straight to your adventuring, there’s a farm shop and ice cream parlour called Wallings Ice Cream (15 minutes' drive) that will make sure your tummy’s well prepared for all the action. For action, the Forest of Bowland Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (half an hour) is just the place - have a pedal between rural villages, picking up farm produce as you go. The Lake District National Park (45 minutes) has plenty more trails or watersports for those looking to get a dip in. But what about those city days out also? The bright lights of Blackpool (half an hour) are hardly far away, and for more sightseeing, Manchester (an hour and 10 minutes) and Liverpool (an hour and 15 minutes) make for some great day trips. If you’re a fan of the busy buzz and action Lancaster (half an hour) has museums and a city park or Morecambe (half an hour) has a splendid seafront… but for more wildlife instead, head to the Wild Discovery animal park (half an hour).
