  • Well-maintained peaceful park a minute's stroll from the beach
  • Half a mile from Haverigg and within walking distance of shops/pubs
  • Barbecues allowed; beachside café by the sand dunes
On the Cumbrian coast within a minute's stroll of a sandy beach – what an utter stunner. Butterflowers Holiday Park is in spectacular setting on the coast and with easy access to the Lake District, next to a café which overlooks an adventure play area, sand dunes and the sea. It's half a mile from the small fishing village of Haverigg, on the Duddon estuary five minutes' drive from Millom. Coniston Water and Barrow-in-Furness are both within 50 minutes; Kendal is just over an hour away, and outdoor options like hiking, golfing, pony trekking and fishing are all nearby. Leisurely pursuits are well sorted on site too, with that beachside café for alfresco bites overlooking the water. Barbecues are allowed: shops as well as pubs serving food are within walking distance. Dogs are welcome to come and stay at Butterflowers Holiday Park throughout the camping season.

Kim H. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Friendly staff, great clean facilties, clean site. Close to shops, great little cafe 2 mins from site, local pubs serving food. Fantastic play area just outside the site with the beach being just across the road. Great taxi service (no bus service) cheap as well. Train from Millom to Burrow in Furness.

Disliked: Quite a sleepy site, not very busy, lots of seasonal caravans.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: A warm welcome when we arrived to the site. Everywhere was well maintained and cleaned regularly. The site was fairly busy, but all guests adhered to the rules and guidelines so there was no noise after 9pm which was much appreciated with 2 younger children. I'd happily stay again and would recommend.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: Location was great. Clean and tidy. Quiet site and staff helpful

Disliked: Felt claustrophobic even busy as pitches a little small and roads narrow. Shower cubicles needed some attention as signs of damp in men's. They would benefit from better space to put clothes whilst showering.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked: They have everything you need in a motor home pitch. The manager was also really nice when we were late. Our 11 year old son also made some friends and played football with them. The playground is spectacular too!

Local attractions

Start your local activities with a couple of hours at Millom Discovery Centre, five minutes' drive away at Millom station on Cumbria Coastal Line. The centre has a museum, a Rail Room with exhibits on the area's railway heritage, a mining area with full-sized mining cage, and a café, gift shop and prehistory gallery. Adventurous kids – and their grownups – should also like the costume room, where a nicely eclectic selection of 18th- and 19th-century threads await for dressing up. It's 10 minutes' drive from Butterflowers to the Hodbarrow RSPB reserve, a coastal lagoon on a former iron mine overlooking the Duddon estuary. Terns, oystercatchers, ringed plovers and redshanks are among the species that flock here; look out too for the protected great crested grebes on the reserve's island. Venturing further afield, it's 40 minutes' drive to the South Lakes Safari Zoo (formerly South Lakes Wild Animal Park) at Barrow-in-Furness, and just under an hour to treetop antics at Grizedale Forest's Go Ape. Windermere is an hour and five minutes away.
