Farm and Fell Campsite

Positiv A really relaxed arrival process – there's no need to check in at reception. You simply choose your numbered pitch, which is marked out by long grass, and the owners come around on their quad bike to check you in.

Every pitch has its own brick fire pit, which creates a lovely atmosphere in the evenings.

The owners were extremely friendly and welcoming throughout our stay.

Toilets and showers are housed in a rustic barn-style building. They were clean, stocked with toilet roll and suited the farm campsite perfectly.

Firewood, kindling and firelighters can be bought on site for £8, which was really convenient.

Instead of lots of bins around the site, the owners come around to collect your rubbish bags, which keeps the campsite looking tidy.

We loved being surrounded by the farm animals. There were cows, sheep, horses and goats, and the goats were tethered so children could feed them leaves and say hello. There were also signs directing you to the pigs.

The views across the Yorkshire Fells are beautiful, making it a lovely place to relax.

It's only a short walk into Sedbergh town and even closer to the river, so you can easily explore without driving.

The campsite has separate fields for families and larger groups. The family field has a quiet time from 9:30pm, while groups camp elsewhere, meaning we couldn't hear them at all.

Negativ While most campers respected the 9:30pm quiet time, there were occasionally people still playing music after 10pm. This wasn't challenged, which was a little disappointing.







There's only one pot-washing sink, which often had queues. The site warns that using it can make the showers run cold, although we never experienced this because people were considerate. We ended up washing dishes with cold water at our tent instead.

The drinking water tap was close to our pitch, but it was located directly behind another family's pitch, which felt a little intrusive when filling water containers.

Scooters and balance bikes are available to borrow, which is a lovely touch, but there isn't really enough space to use them. An additional field or a small hard-standing play area for scooters and ball games would make a big difference.

Positiv We stay here 3 times a year with my 3 teenage boys, this camp site for the price is value for money, it’s well run caters for all your need, you have a Spar shop walking distance, surrounded by stunning scenery and farm animals, 1 of the lakes missing treasures 🙏🏻

Negativ People moaning about the water in the shower going cold 🤦🏼‍♂️ if you want a warm shower for longer than 5 mins book a Premiere Inn, and why would you need more than 1 sink to do the dishes 🤷🏼‍♂️

Positiv Great basic site with everything you need. Good options between Wood field and quieter field. Owners helpful and accommodating.

Negativ Portaloos ran out of paper, but that was due to late time of day when I arrived!

Vom Platzbetreiber: We are in a Yorkshire Dales dark skies area. We cannot have lights on after 2230hrs and encourage campers to have a head torch after that time.

Sincerely

Brian

Positiv Great location quiet - easy walk to town and lots of other lovely walks around. Clean and tidy camping field
Pick your own spot - plenty of space
Farm animals about

Negativ No sinks to wash hands in toilets so only option was the one pot washing sink - people also used for face and teeth cleaning etc
Three toilets to share that ended up rather disgusting by the end of the night
