Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Myself and partner travelled with a few friends up to the Lake District for the weekend. Moor house farm camping was amazing the hosts were lovely and friendly and extremely helpful. Everyone on the site was very friendly and everyone was respectful. The facilities were amazing and better than expected. The check in details and all information was extremely helpful.
Disliked: The only issues we had were we felt the signage for the campsite was a bit small and hard to see, a bigger sign would be easier to find the campsite. The only other issues we wanted to improve was in the bathroom there was a sign with what 3 words to find the campsite easier, it would have been nice to have received those details in the confirmation email to find the site easier.

Liked: Very clean and tidy. The facilities were well equipped, clean, no odours. The host was helpful and friendly. Due to unforeseen circumstances, we were running delayed so sent a message to check if we would be able to arrive late and was happy to be informed that this wasn’t an issue. We will be back next year!

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: This site was 10/10. Field -well kept, dry & spacious between each pitch. I highly recommend camping along the back wall towards the left corner as recommended by owners (quieter & amazing views). So many surrounding fields and walks to wander with dogs on a long line. Lots more walks we did not have time to explore. Facilities - the cleanest I have ever experienced while camping. Staff - Julie was so considerate of her campers, answering every email promptly, checking on things to make sure everything was ok, regularly checking on the toilet block cleanliness, offering an extra night's stay at last minute due to us enjoying things so much. She was quite literal her saviour when she enlisted her husband to come and rescue my partner's car battery which died due to our error of leaving car lights on to put a tent up on the dark. He came and jump started the car and rescued our mini holiday. 4g/5g available which was a major bonus. We LOVED our experience and cannot wait to return.
Disliked: Nothing - the experience was PERFECT.

Primitive grass tent campsite
Liked: Great camping field, large area. Dont think it would ever feel crowded. Beautiful view, you can see the mountains in the distance.
Great toilet/shower facilities, looks like it has been recently refurbed.
Short distance from the M6 motorway, so very easy access. You can actually see the cars/lorries passing at the distance but no noise at all. Very peaceful. Host also very kind, came to check on us on arrival even though we arrived quite late.
Disliked: Some of the areas are on a slope, but plenty of flat areas to choose from. Be there with daylight so you can choose the best spot.

Liked: Plenty of space to choose from to pitch up. Gorgeous views. Clean and tidy toilet block. It was very rainy during my stay and the owner was kind enough to open the gate on the lower part of the field so I could get out easier when I left. Looking forward to going back when it’s dryer!
