Hobby Wood non-electric grass tent pitch (no private bathroom amenities)

Liked Such a beautiful spot and lovely, lovely hosts. Were were newbie campers and although we arrived a bit late, and it was rainy and windy when we arrived, the hosts helped us to get started with pitching our tent which we were so grateful for and it was such a kind gesture. The location is beautiful and with two young boys, it was lovely to see them just messing about in the stream and playing with new friends on the hammocks available. We would not hesitate to come back and I would thoroughly recommend to anyone looking for a beautiful quiet spot where the kids can play safely. Thank you!

Alders Edge bell tent

Liked We stayed in a bell tent for 2 nights. It was lovely to have proper beds, with sheets and towels provided. There was also lights, crockery, kettle, stove, fire pit inside and outside seats and table.

Lovely peaceful site with great views. The children (6 & 8yrs) loved playing in the stream, watching the sheep and cows, as well as sitting in the hammocks.

Plenty of toilets and showers with hot water. Maintained twice a day by the lovely couple that own the site.

Disliked Make sure you follow the instructions to get there, we didn't and came down a very narrow, long road, which was a bit daunting.

Really lovely site with friendly and helpful owners. We would return!

Hobby Wood non-electric grass tent pitch (no private bathroom amenities)

Liked The site was lovely and quiet and the location was perfect by the beck.

Shirley and her husband were so helpful both before and during our visit - they were also really friendly.

The facilities were nice and clean and were regularly checked over. Flushing toilets and showers and washing up facilities - all you need really.

It was a great base to explore the lakes too as well as Kirby Lonsdale nearby. Fab ice cream shop and brewery there!

Disliked Only a minor niggle and I worked around it with a towel on the back of the door, but you could see into the showers from the outside which I didn’t love. I think a little adjustment to the doors to cover the gaps and it would be perfect.

From the manager: Thank you for your review, so glad you would return.
We'll have a look at the shower door & get that sorted.

By the Beck non-electric grass tent pitch (private bathroom amenities)

Liked Great stay, the campsite is lovely. Beautiful views. The shallow stream was a hit with my 2 kids they spent lots of time there playing. Our pitch was by the stream with private facilities (gas shower and compost toilet which was surprisingly fine once you get used to it!) there are flushing toilets too which you can use. There is lots of space, pitches are big and not crammed in, hired a fire pit which included a huge bag of wood.

owner was very helpful and brought our equipment down to the field, the hill down to pitches is quite steep from the car park.

Hobby Wood non-electric grass tent pitch (no private bathroom amenities)

Liked The site is in a relitivley remote but beautiful location. Facilities are fantastic and clean. Warm showers are always a bonus! Wadhing up facilities were great with provided sponges and cleaning products. My son enjoyed playing in the stream at the bottom of the site where we found a trout! We had one of the fire pits and logs (£10) which was ample for the evening. Shirley was very accomodating. She gave us a lift once we had packed up to the car park at the top of the hill. Really enjoyed our stay here and would definitley stay again!

Route directions

Exit the M6 at Junction 36, taking the A65 towards Kirkby Lonsdale. You will go past the Plough Hotel on your right. Take the next turn on your right-hand side (just past a layby, with a white bungalow on the corner and a signpost for Hutton Roof). Follow this road, and when it bears sharply to the left, do not turn left but carry straight on in front of the row of houses. Follow the road until you reach a T-junction and then turn right. Keep bearing right, passing Rose Cottage; the site is at the next right-hand turn.

Local attractions

Where to go first? If you want to test your aim, clay pigeon shooting could become your next hobby at Crabtree Clay Shoot (five minutes' drive; check ahead for opening days) or climb the local limestone-paved paths at Hutton Roof Crags (10 minutes’ drive). For countryside enthusiasts, the Lake District (20 minutes’ drive) and Yorkshire Dales (20 minutes) national parks each have their own draws. In the Lake District, the fells and lakes offer ample opportunities for sailing, rock climbing, or cycling. Meanwhile, in the Yorkshire Dales, you can track down waterfalls and old barns. Northwards, more walking and cycling trails await at Whitbarrow National Nature Reserve (25 minutes), this time through ancient woodlands and limestone. While you’re there, visit Sizergh Castle (15 minutes) and stroll the stately grounds and estate. If you’re longing for a sandy beach, there are long stretches of sand at Silverdale (30 minutes) and Sandside (20 minutes). Head further south and you’ll come to Morecambe (30 minutes), where another bay competes with a 12th-century castle, prison and a stroll-worthy promenade for your attention.
