About Higher Mosserley
What would you say to a stay in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty? Higher Mosserley sits in a secluded spot near the southern edge of the ancient Forest of Bowland, surrounded by peaceful Lancashire countryside, far-reaching views over fells and valleys, and the kind of star-studded dark skies that make you forget the city exists. It's family-friendly and welcomes well-behaved dogs, with a safe haven for wildlife—curlews and tawny owls among the species you might spot—and a choice of pitches from small non-electric tent spots to larger wild camping areas and electric motorhome options.
Facilities are simple but practical: a toilet block, showers, washing-up area, and ice pack freezing. The site's quiet hours (10pm–8am) mean no large groups or loud music, so expect a properly restful atmosphere. The ascent to pitches is a moderate gradient; owners are on hand to help larger units. About ten minutes' drive brings you to Longridge for shops and supermarkets, or picturesque Chipping—one of Lancashire's prettiest villages—for two great pubs and a couple of cafés. A farm shop and garden centre lie five minutes away.

What visitors say
I cannot rate Steve and Julie highly enough. Really and truly gone above and beyond for us in every way shape and form and I can only thank them for it. We stored our motorhome with them for several months while in a bit of a family crisis and they looked after it so well, the farm is in a beautiful setting and they are fantastic hosts. I can’t speak much to the camping experience there as we didn’t stay but I can vouch for how much care Steve and Julie put into their guests and I’m sure no one could possibly leave feeling let down. For storage needs, bargain price, five star service and absolute peace of mind.

Excellent base for touring the most spectacular countryside. Weather wasn't kind but didn't put a damper on our holiday as the evenings and sunsets made up for it. Dogs loved it as well. Very friendly owners, and locals very friendly and chatty.

Views are great, location is good lots of trails nearby on all trails or you can make your own.. Site is clean. No shower but that is advertised. Only bug bare is no hot water or sink for washing up hence losing a star, that being said if a short stay its not an issue. Host is very friendly. She thinks about her guests and introduces you.. Pitches people with kids in the same area making a quieter experience for those without. ( I have kids and thought this was a good way of managing a site) the views are beautiful. Can be a bit windy so bring layers but that isn't on the site. That's good old British weather. Little gem and a fair price. Happy campers.
