What customers say
Moor House Farm offers a peaceful, spacious campsite on a working farm with stunning views. Visitors consistently praise the immaculate, clean facilities, including hot showers. The owners are frequently described as exceptionally friendly, welcoming, and helpful. The site's proximity to the M6 makes it an ideal stopover, yet it retains a quiet, rural feel. Some minor points include the undulating ground and unisex facilities, though these did not detract from the overall positive experiences reported.

Liked Gorgeous location, lovely quiet site with plenty of room. Great little shower block, everything you need is there without being expensive. Super easy access to fast roads as well as being in an ideal rural location. Great advice about local walks and attractions and all emergency information provided. The family who own it are lovely, they ensure they pop to see you and are friendly and helpful without being overbearing.
