The stunning hidden farm with a waterfall that welcomes festival for bank holiday weekender

It was once billed as "Manchester's best kept secret" - but this bank holiday weekend thousands of revellers will be heading over to a hidden Stockport farm in a stunning countryside setting for a music extravaganza. The Moovin Festival makes its August bank holiday return with a packed bill of entertainment including Orbital, Louie Vega and Black Grape.

Upon arrival at the festival at Whitebottom Farm in Compstall in Stockport, guests get to enjoy the beautiful countryside of Etherow Country Park. On the site itself there's a picturesque waterfall, lake and acres of rolling fields.

As for the festival itself? The main stage remains in the vast former cow shed where it all began as a secret "Barn Party" with just a few hundred people in 2014.
