Moss Side Farm

Moss Side Farm is our holiday base in Lancashire with the Lake District, the Yorkshire Dales and the beaches of the Fylde Coast within easy reach. Tony finds it an ideal base for going mountain biking although the immediate vicinity is totally devoid of bridleways. |  |

The farm was Tony's parent's home
which they ran as a smallholding when Tony's father retired. They
are buried just the other side of the wall in the churchyard where
they
can keep
an
eye
on us
to make
sure
we
look
after
it properly |

Tony's sister comes over to stay every October,
a tradition started when Tony's parents were alive, Another tradition is
that those two weeks always turn out to be foul weather. Still a good
book and a steaming mug of tea in front of the Aga is all you need. |

Stanley and Mr Singleton keep the gardens looking
nice and the place looked after - the grounds extend to about 5 acres.
Kathy and Gemma look forward though to the chance to use the ride on mower.
One is usually mowing with the other walking alongside waiting for their
turn. Its a good job there's enough grass to go round. |
