About the site
This is a quiet site, suitable for older families (children aged 15 and over) and couples. Come and soak up the peace and quiet, and relax in the wonderful surroundings of the Woodland Valley. The historic village of Broughton in Furness is just a five minute drive or a 35 minute stroll down the footpath, with cafes, pubs and more. There is plenty of space to explore, hills, woodlands and streams all here on the site. Pitch up on grass to enjoy incredible views and you'll also find a small selection of hardstanding areas. For glampers, there are cosy rail cabins to try, which sleep four and include a wood burner, double bed and a set of bunks, larger groups of six can rent the entire rustic bunk house for an adventure in the Lakes, with comfy adult size bunkbeds, couch, wood burning stove, kettle, toaster and microwave. The site is fairly near the coast, the lovely beaches of Haverigg and Silecroft being a 20 minute drive away. The nearest lake, Coniston, is a 15 minute drive. Moss Side is a great base for walkers who want to ramble on the lower footpaths and for the more adventurous who want a little more of a challenge of the higher peaks like Coniston Old Man, Blackcombe or Scar Fell! Dogs are welcome but must be kept on a lead whilst on the farm.

A great night at moss farm campsite. We were greeted upon arrival and got to pick our pitch. Set up camp and took advantage of the provided fire pit. My partner and I really enjoyed walking around the farm looking at all the animals.
Beautiful and relaxing weekend stay

I had such a lovely stay on this working farm. The owners were so friendly and welcoming, which made the experience feel really personal. I especially loved seeing the animals roaming around—it gave the place so much charm and character. It’s a proper working farm, so it’s not pristine, but that’s exactly what makes it feel so authentic and down-to-earth. The surroundings were beautiful and peaceful—perfect for a relaxing countryside break. I’d definitely recommend.
Lovely

Just what we wanted. We stayed up at the top which had a lovely view and gave the wilder feeling we like. Highly recommend.
