Small, peaceful and pet-friendly site in the coastal village of Drigg
Beach and dunes half an hour’s walk; Wastwater 20 minutes’ drive
Directly on the Cumbrian Coastal Route; food shop on site

Stay overnight between sand dunes and the fells of the Lake District at Partfield Park, in the cute Cumbrian coastal village of Drigg. The dunes and Drigg's beach are just half an hour's walk away from this small, family-run retreat, and fells and lakes are a short drive in the opposite direction – paddles on Wastwater are just 20 minutes away, to be precise. Your walking prospects are also quite spectacular from here. First of all, the site is directly on the Cumbrian Coastal Route for dreamy strolls along the seafront. Wasdale is half an hour’s drive away for those who'd like to take on England’s highest summit. The most direct route begins from the Lake Head car park. After walks high on the fells, you should be glad to return to a hot shower back at base and a collection of convenient facilities including a food shop (with local produce and an off-licence, you might be glad to hear), a washing-up area and toilets. In this coastal spot, clouds often roll over the valley, giving you sweet, sweet views. Drigg is actually home to the largest sand dune system in Cumbria, so it’s a scenic spot in general. There's also the bonus of having Seascale village five minutes’ drive away. Once a lively Victorian resort destination, Seascale has another beach, an ice cream parlour, a small shop, a golf course and a train station. Country pubs are, of course, a short drive from the site for meals out.

Local attractions

First and foremost, Drigg beach (half an hour’s walk) is just over a mile away from Partfield Park for windswept dunes, miles of sandy walks and some small rockpools that might be of interest to those who are curious to see what creatures the sea has washed in. There’s more water inland, specifically three miles of it at England’s deepest lake, Wastwater (20 minutes’ drive). Wild swimming’s popular there, as is canoeing, kayaking and paddleboarding. Just over in Ravenglass is the Ravenglass & Eskdale Steam Railway (10 minutes) for steam-powered trips to Dalegarth. From there, you could take off on a ramble in the fells around the Eskdale Valley. Otherwise, make your return west for sights like Muncaster Castle (10 minutes), which has a hawk and owl centre where eagles, falcons and owls show off at flying displays. Inside the state rooms of the castle are old paintings and gorgeous furnishings from the Victorian period. Another pillar of local history is the Hardknott Roman Fort & Thermae (half an hour), where you can lay your eyes on the remains of an old fort from Hadrian’s Wall.
