Lane Head Farm is a scenic little wild campsite within a young woodland in the Staffordshire moorland. We offer basic facilities including a composting toilet located within the woods and a flushing toilet available down at the farm. There is off-road car parking either in the woods or down in the farmyard. Our pitches are set in quiet woodland and are perfect for small parties up to four people.

From Buxton or Leek Take the A53 and half way between Leek and Buxton you will see the Winking Man Pub. Take the turn on the south side of the pub which is signposted Newtown and Warslow. After about half a mile take the first left fork. After another half mile at the crossroads take the left turn and then after a mile you will see a phone box on your right. Turn left down the small lane which says 'Unsuitable for long vehicles'. At the mini crossroads go straight across and come down to the farmhouse.
