Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: We were greeting very well upon arrival, the pub and it's facilities were very well kept. The kids loved playing on the park across from the pub and also running wild on the pitches. We had some lovey pub grub for our tea on Friday night.

Camping pod

Liked: We absolutely loved it here and will be returning. We came with out dog and 2 children ages 2 and 8 and stayed in the camping pod. Very clean campsite, very clean pod, very clean toilets and shower block. We went to the beach not far from the site, we also spent alot of time in the park with the kids. There was enough room for the kids to play near the pod. We also had food on our second night for my partners birthday. Food was beautiful and the staff were so friendly and went above and beyond. We will be returning to this site next time we go for a little break away.

Disliked: Nothing.

Camping pod

Liked: Excellent, friendly hosts! Pod was well laid out and very toasty in the night. Quiet site in a lovely location. Food in the pub was great too (lots of options for people with dietary requirements too!). Price is very reasonable for a pod with power, heating and furniture. We had a lovely time!

Disliked: The BBQ rules were a bit unclear - pitchup gave us the impression no BBQs were allowed but there was a little one outside the pod.

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Really nice area and the local community pub is really friendly and serves great home cooked food. Nice local coastal towns to visit. Beach a 15/20 min walk from camp site. Free guest Wi-if and clean facilities.

Disliked: The only thing was the weather which can’t be helped, loved everything else!!

Electric optional grass pitch

Liked: Excellent stay, very welcoming and friendly. Food and service in the pub were fabulous and all facilities very clean and well maintained. Tent pitch was on flat grassed area and very well maintained with electric and own water tap. Beautiful area, walking distance from beach and short drive to some lovely shops and tea rooms. Was really pleased that our dog was also made very welcome, in the pub. We will definitely be back. Highly recommend this lovely little place! Such a gem. X

Local attractions

Senhouse Roman Museum (15 minutes’ drive) is the place to learn more about the Roman history of this area. The collection of artefacts on display here includes votive slabs, military altars and pottery unearthed at a nearby Roman fort said to date from the first century AD. If you have an animal lover in your party, why not make them happy with a trip to Lake District Wildlife Park (half an hour)? In addition to displays starring the resident birds of prey, you can get up close and personal to lemurs and meerkats, or stroll with an alpaca. All these experiences are accompanied by spectacular, far-reaching views of Bassenthwaite Lake. The border city of Carlisle (45 minutes) is worth a visit for its 11th-century castle, where Mary Queen of Scots was held captive in the 1500s, and its medieval cathedral, with an elegant Flemish altarpiece. You can also go for a pleasant stroll through Bitts Park or on Hadrian's Wall Path, along the River Eden.
