The morning mist lifts slowly here, clinging to the folds of the Rossendale Valley before the sun breaks through and lights up this working farm tucked into the Lancashire hills.
Cherry Clough suits campers after proper countryside — walkers heading for the Pennine moors, families wanting space to roam without crowds, anyone with a tent, campervan or caravan looking for a Lancashire base that feels genuinely rural. You're in proper hill country here, where dry-stone walls climb the slopes and the landscape opens out toward the West Pennine Moors, yet towns like Rawtenstall aren't far when you need supplies.
Facilities are straightforward — toilets and showers onsite, the essentials done well. Ask about campfires when you arrive, as policies can vary. It's a working farm, so expect that authentic backdrop of sheep and fields rather than manicured pitches, and a quiet, unpretentious atmosphere where the hills do the talking.
