  • 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 is a small, peaceful working farm site offering stunning views and a friendly, helpful owner. Guests appreciate the proximity to Ravenglass, the roaming farm animals, and the quiet atmosphere. Facilities are basic but generally clean, though some visitors note they are dated or could be improved. Potential issues include occasional mud after rain and the presence of a nearby electricity pylon, but most visitors find the pros outweigh the cons.

Electric grass touring pitch

Liked Peacefulness small site with not much to do just how we like it. If your like us and the only chance you get to relax and sit and do nothing is when you go away this is the place very accommodating and lovely owners will do anything to help also stunning holiday cottages even brought logs home for the log burner 👍 basic site but absolutely stunning views and owners couldn’t be more helpful. We have a nervous dog and she was fine due to the expanse not crammed in really close to everyone else and loads of fields to walk in also very clean and tidy big 👍 from me and my family keep up the good work looking at booking our next stay ❤️❤️

Liked The nive view! And the friendly host.

Disliked Shower and toilet facility. Regular cleaning would be nice. It wasnt very clean when we arrived.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: We are sorry that you were unhappy with your stay with us.
You only arrived on site after 9pm, and left early the following morning. The toilets would not be cleaned at that time of night.
Thankyou for your feedback. Have a lovely summer.

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.
