Beck Foot Campsite

Liked Beautiful spot. Friendly and helpful owner.

Liked Beautiful views all around.

Disliked No water available when we stayed.

Liked Great camping trip with great views

Liked The farmer was very accommodating with us as we were late on site due to road closures and delays and got slightly lost in the dark so he gave us directions. Beautiful views to wake up to in the morning. Exactly what we needed as our stop off before heading further on. Has toilets and water dispenser for washing there. Farmer came and checked in with us on the morning to make sure we were all ok which was very sweet. Basic camping site but perfect for people like us that enjoy wild camping!

Liked Views were nice, low price and toilets on site.

Disliked Farmer was abit funny with us being young in my opinion. Told us off for having a fire, even tho the post states fires are allowed, he did kindly lend us a fire pit tho. On the last day of our trip he decided to come over and shout at us for being messy, we were just starting out packup and were just about to put our rubbish in bins, we told him this and he said we were arguing with him and told us to eff off and get off his site before 10am

Facilities weren't the greatest but can't really complain for the low price.

Other than our bad experience with the owner, the place was lovely, can't say I don't recommend it as long as you stay on his good side because he was lovely at first.

From the manager: Well if you behave and don’t make a mess and don’t take all my stones of the wall to make a fire I wouldn’t of said anything plus the fact you were arguing all night and keeping the other campers awake so that’s why I asked you to leave show some respect to other people and the country side we do not tolerate bad behaviour on our site and buy the way camp fire are aloud but we always ask you to keep them of the ground

Liked The campsite is secluded and quiet.

Disliked Having no drinking water available on site makes life harder for anyone trekking. (That said, I was offered some water on arrival, but the site did not advertise that this would be a possibility.)

Liked The simple facilities are well maintained by the friendly and helpful farmer.
The site is surrounded by stunning views and great hill walks.
Very big pitches with parking space combined.
Livestock in adjacent fields, it's a brilliant feeling of being off grid, similar to wild camping but with the benefit of a good signal for your mobile.
The town of Sedbergh is a short drive away with shops, pubs and a great tourist information office.
Perfect peace and quiet.
Camping at it's best!

Liked beautiful remote and quiet site with great views

Disliked the loos
it is a long drive down tiny roads to get to

Liked view is spectacular, loved the remoteness but also closeness of village

Disliked Only 2 portaloos which by the time more people arrived were pretty disgusting after the first day and no one cleaned them either so by day 2, we didn't even want to use them either. No shower as advertised as out of order apparently which was pretty disappointing after 2 days but we survived. We knew the water was not drinkable so were prepared but there wasn't even a sink in the portaloo working either.
We're all pretty hardy but there are limits and no, I didn't want to drive to Tebay services for a shower. Just let me know in advance that is what is to be expected!
We thought £25 per night for parking in a field was probably a bit much considering animal excrement everywhere and other campsites are not much more with lovely facilities.
Would likely not book again and this is sad as the view really is spectacular and on the clear night it was like dark skies with so many stars.
Please either sort out the facilities or let people know it's practically wild camping!

From the manager: Sorry it wasn’t up to you expectations I do try my best to please everyone regarding the shower it not on the website that we have one and the toilet were cleaned twice the following day and were clean so a really don’t know were your comeing from

Liked Really lovely, quiet site! Outstanding views all around the field. You are completely immersed in the countryside 😊. Myself and my dog loved it. Farmer came round to check all was good, then left us to the peace and quiet.
Two portaloos and a big tank of water on site. I only wanted basic and this is perfect.
