About Moss Howe Farm Campsite
This attractive site is a space where families, couples and just good friends can enjoy a tranquil retreat. The farm is based in the secluded Winster Valley, with breathtaking views and plenty of wildlife to be found nearby. Tents and VW campervans can pitch up on a range of non electric pitches, ranging from 2.5m x 3m to 5m x 6m, sleeping a maximum of six guests. There are also three premium non electric grass pitches available, each 5m x 7m for up to six guests with a picnic bench and fire pit, great for nights under the stars. Sprinter and VW campervans also have the choice of the two electric grass pitches measuring 3m x 5m and allowing up to six people. For those who prefer glamping, the site also offers a range of mini lodge pods and yurts. The two mini lodges are furnished, including a three-quarter bed, with fresh bedding supplied. They also have electric and heating to keep you nice and warm. You will also find your own private compact kitchen with a food prep area in which you will find a cooking stove, kettle and all the cooking equipment you will need. There is a picnic bench for evenings outdoors, along with one of the pods offering a hot tub! There are also four spacious 18ft yurts available on the farm, each sleeping up to six in a double and four single futons. Inside you'll have cosy furnishings including blankets, storage and a wood-burning fire for those cooler months. Shared shower and toilet facilities can also be found nearby. Outside you'll have the welcome addition of your own private Scandinavian wood-fired hot tub, as well as a campfire and space for al fresco dining. Completely unwind onsite enjoying the countryside views, or try your hand at watersports as Lake Windermere is just a 15 minute drive away. A maximum of two dogs are welcome on all of the pitches and in each of the pods and pet friendly yurts, just please keep them on the lead.

A lovely relaxed feel from beginning to end of our stay. Hot showers in a spacious washroom area. Firepits for use with refundable deposit (ash bin was full, minor thing). A great base to explore South Lakeland from. Would definitely return.
