What customers say
This is a welcoming, clean, and tidy rural campsite, praised for its friendly owners and convenient location near the M6 and local amenities. Guests enjoyed lovely views, ample space for children and dogs, and good electric hook-ups. While some noted road and train noise, most found it acceptable given the location. The site is described as simple and basic, particularly suited for campervans due to the absence of toilet and shower facilities. Manager comments indicate ongoing development plans.

Great walk to the reservoir nearby and close to the village
Electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely well kept little site. Owners were friendly and we chose where to pitch which was perfect as we had beautiful views with a lovely sunset. You are close to a road and train line but this did not bother us and certainly was not intrusive, in fact we enjoyed the sound of the train going by. Great little site.
Disliked Obviously no toilet block but we knew this when we booked so no complaint.

A great stay, Lovely hosts, reasonable charges.
Electric grass pitch
Liked Lovely hosting family, with brand new waste disposal for both grey water and your toilet too. A large area to choose from if you don't require electricity, with lovely views of the hills and mother nature giving all for you to sit, listen and admire . There is plenty of room at the entrance and electrical hookups.
M6 is a stone throw away and a chip shop and store located in the village I believe. Kendal is not far either just 12 miles with all the major stores available.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay
Disliked As warned there is a train line near by and as a light sleeper I found it quite different to be honest.
Bound to say everyone loves a shower but thats a wish list 🤔🤣
Just on approach a larger sign 👍👍

Lovely basic campsite for camper-vans.

Liked Lovely views and location, perfect for campervan stays as no toilet or shower facilities. Easy to use electric hookup, chemical waste and other camper van needs. No litter or rubbish at all. Really friendly and helpful staff.
Disliked Road was a little noisy at night but fine for a short stay.
