Moorside Farm

An Independent Hostel in the Heart of the Peak District

Moorside Farm is a 300 year old farmhouse set 1200 feet up in the beautiful Peak District National Park on the Derbyshire-Staffordshire border, approximately 5 miles from the historic town of Buxton. We provide clean, simple accommodation suitable for walkers, fell runners, climbers, cyclists or general tourists. You just have to bring your own sleeping bag. Sleeping accommodation is provided in two areas, one for fourteen which is alpine style with pine clad ceiling and a pine floor with bunk beds. The second area has six beds, also in bunks, and is an ideal room for a small group or family. Downstairs there are showers and toilets and a large dining/general room which can be used for working in. The farmhouse has full central heating and drying facilities are available.
For our Guests we provide a three course breakfast, a packed lunch and a substantial dinner in the evening. A small kitchen is available for making tea and coffee which we can provide. Ample parking space is provided. The farmhouse has a current fire certificate. The Peak District extends over 542 square miles. Naturally divided into two uniquely different areas, with wild gritstone moors to the north and gentler limestone dales to the south, this makes it ideal walking country, whilst sleepy villages and hamlets that have retained much of their early romantic charm can provide a welcome resting site.
Prices: Adult £22 per night - including bed, breakfast, packed lunch and evening meal. B&B only, £15 per night. Children on application Schools and Universities will find Moorside Farm ideal for Field Study Trips, as well as a base from which to undertake Educational visits and Adventure Activities.
