What customers say
Moss Side Farm: Quiet, adults-only site on a working farm. Highly rated for views, tranquility, and friendly hosts. Spacious pitches, nearby walks, and charming farm animals noted. Basic but clean facilities. Some found ground rocky or experienced minor noise/facility issues. Many plan returns.
Summary AI-generated from Pitchup.com customer reviews




















Excellent site, clean facilities and lovely owners.
Primitive grass campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Beautiful working farm. Lovely owners who were helpful and kind. I managed to book a railway pod as it was pouring and didn’t fancy putting the tent up and then back down in the rain. Very comfortable and easy walk into Broughton in Furness with all amenities.

Bring your own firewood!
Rail camping pod
Liked Lovely dogs
Disliked I understand the business owners may want an evening off every now and again, however I think it is unreasonable to prohibit guests from bringing their own firewood, whilst also being unable to provide a reliable alternative.
I am glad we didn’t travel in winter, and we urge anyone visiting to bring their own firewood if they wish to have a warm night’s sleep

From the manager: Ohh dear I m so sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay. We do sell fire wood at £7 per sack, £1.50 for kindling which I think is very reasonable. I state that fire wood sales finish at 7.00pm although we do often get knocks on the door after hours, some times up until 10.00pm, and if I’m still awake I greet with a smile, although at that time summoning a smile take a little more effort.
We do ask visitors to buy their wood from us for the stoves to try and prevent guests burning wood/coal/ heat logs which are unsuitable. Heat logs and coal have cracked our stoves in the past and logs too long do to fit in, encourage guests to leave the stove doors open which is a health and safety risk. I don’t make up rules to be awkward I add them as experiences force my hand so to try and keep running my little farm Campsite safe and manageable.
Thanks for staying and I hope you had a pleasant journey home.

Für Leute, die es natürlich und rustikal mögen.
Rail camping pod
Liked Umgebung, göttliche Ruhe auf dem Platz, sehr freundliche Besitzer.
Der Ausblick ist ein Traum!
Disliked Ich finde die Betten in dem Railpod nicht ganz vertrauenswürdig, habe dennoch, vor allem aufgrund der Stille, sehr gut geschlafen.
Ist rustikal, muss man mögen.

Rail camping pod
Liked The location was beautiful, the owner was very helpful too.
Disliked There was literally nothing in the carriage. I know the description said to bring all camping equipment but it was so basic. Just the beds and a fire. No fridge and no electric sockets.
Recommend to friends Visit again
From the manager: The description of the cabins states what is in the cabins and what you need to bring. These cabins sleep 4 people, £14.75 per person per night, cheap no frills cabins. No where does it state electric sockets, fridges etc.
I think your review is very unfair when it was simply a case of you not reading and planning accordingly.
My Cabins are £59.00 per night, more fancy cabins are usually £120.00 per night. We offer a communal freezer for freezer blocks and a communal area for charging phones etc.
I’m sorry you were disappointed but I’m sorry too that you put the blame on me 😑
