  • Small quiet site set on a working farm in the Western Lake District
  • Close to mountain and coastal walks
  • Near the Hawk & Owl Centre at Muncaster
Come to Cumblands Farm Caravan Site in the western Lake District to be close to mountain and coastal walks, cycling and long days exploring the surrounds before evenings chilling out among smashing sunsets and the sounds of local birds… (And if birds are your bag, you might like to flit to the nearby Hawk & Owl Centre at Muncaster.) As might be expected around the Lake District, these are fab views around Cumblands Farm and the vibe is one of simple countryside serenity; this is a small and very friendly site on a working farm and just the ticket for soothing hols. It's about a mile's walk via the nearby beach to the local village of Ravenglass. Cumblands Farm has charging facilities, chemical disposal and a small shower and loo block with plenty of hot water. And as might be hoped in a region with walkies all around, this is a dog-friendly place – look out for the friendly farm dogs while you're there.

What customers say

This small, quiet campsite on a working farm offers stunning views and a relaxed atmosphere. Guests praise the friendly owner, the farm animals, and the convenient location for walking to Ravenglass and exploring the surrounding area. Facilities are described as basic but clean and adequate, with a portion of the shower charge donated to Mountain Rescue. Some guests noted the presence of a pylon and basic amenities, but most found the location and peaceful environment excellent value.

Orchard non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked Good location, plenty to do. Quiet. Had everything that was needed. A place to pitch a tent, and toilet and shower at a reasonable price. Great views. Friendly owner.

Disliked Slightly exposed to wind, but the tent remained intact. Thankfully managed to get tent pegs from the nearby garage or it would have been the shortest camping trip ever. I'd forgotten to pack them back into the tent bag from the last trip

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Glad you had a good time despite the wind. Hopefully see you again sometime.

Excellent site, nice and peaceful, loved the animals free roaming

Douglas M.

Orchard non-electric grass tent pitch (no pets)

Liked A quiet site on a small farm, with all the attributes of a farm, free range chickens with their own chicks. Very helpful and friendly farmer. Take care when driving in and out of the site, on 2 occasions I had to encourage a hen with 8 chicks to move out of the way before I could drive through.
Facilities simple but clean and well kept.
His charge for showers is donated to the local Mountain Rescue team a good cause.
No parties, that suited me and my friends. After a hard day out canoeing or walking, we want to rest.

Route directions

Please note that satnavs can take unusual routes, so it's best to follow these instructions. From the A595, take the turning signed Saltcoates. Continue down the road, past a farm on your right. Slow down as you approach the blind bend. As you come out of the bend there is a farm track on your left: this is the entrance to Cumblands Farm. Drive up the lane and follow the road around the boundary of the garden to the site.

Local attractions

Lakes, mountains, beaches and miles of walking paths and cycling trails are all within a short distance of Cumblands Farm Caravan Site, as well as heritage highlights like Muncaster Castle and the ruins of the Roman fort near Hardknott. Whitehaven harbour is a short drive away. The local village of Ravenglass (the only coastal settlement in the whole of the Lake District National Park) was occupied by toga types in the second century when it was used as a vital Roman naval base; the remains of the Roman baths form one of the biggest remaining Roman structures in England. Ravenglass is also the starting point for the Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway running the seven miles to Dalegarth in the Eskdale valley and passing the Hardknott Roman fort, the Boot and Muncaster watermills and Muncaster Castle. If you reckon your legs can stand it, hike up nearby Hardknott Pass, one of the two steepest paths in all of England (the other is Rosedale Chimney Bank in North Yorkshire) for views of the Isle of Man and access to the also fairly tough terrain of Wrynose Pass which leads to the Three Shire Stone where the historic counties of Cumberland, Lancashire and Westmorland meet. Viking artefacts including the tallest and oldest Viking cross in England are at the nearby village of Gosforth four miles away.
