What customers say

This basic, remote campsite offers stunning 360° countryside views, ideal for peace and quiet. Campers appreciated the friendly, helpful owner and the "wild camping" feel. Facilities are minimal, consisting of portaloos and a water dispenser, with some guests reporting issues with their cleanliness or availability, and a lack of drinking water. Access involves narrow lanes and a tight bridge. The site is considered pricey by some for its limited amenities, though many found it a perfect getaway.

Liked Stunning scenery. You can have fires there.

Disliked I was surprised there was no drinking water. No water or soap in portaloo sink, poorly working flush in portaloo and so one of portaloo blocked.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Absolutely stunning views, full moon, no light pollution stars amazing. It was a clear night.

Disliked Once you’ve driven up the very narrow single track lane, which I encountered a tracker n van my car has a scratch all down one side now hopefully will tea cut out.
Please could the farmers cut back the hedges to allow for passing vehicles.

Samantha H.

Non-electric grass campervan pitch

Liked Location was perfect. 360° views of uninterrupted countryside. Farmer was friendly, came to say hello then left us to it. There were 2 portaloos but we didn't use them as had our own.
Not completely level, but we had ramps so wasn't a problem for us. Couldn't fault the site at all. Exactly what we needed - Peace and quiet

Disliked The bridge that the sat nav took us over, extremely narrow for a campervan, it was a very tight squeeze. Would go a different way next time.

Recommend to friends Visit again

I’d use it again happily

Liked Lovely spot at the foot of the Howgills, wonderful grass, portaloos and nothing else so basic and doesn’t attract noisy families, owner was straightforward and helpful in a Sedbergh armed way

Disliked If the wind is the wrong direction you can heat the main road

Non-electric grass tent pitch

Liked Nestled away from the bustle of Ullswater’s crowded spots, Beck Foot campsite was a gem of serenity. Its peaceful atmosphere and breathtaking 360-degree views made it feel like a hidden haven—perfect for couples seeking quiet and connection with nature. Though the facilities were basic, that raw simplicity added to its charm, giving us the exhilarating sense of wild camping without straying too far from comfort. We absolutely loved our stay and would return in a heartbeat.
