Paddock powered grass tent or campervan campsite (large)

Liked: This is an absolutely wonderful place to stay, the views are the best we've had anywhere we've stayed, the facilities are spotless and the welcome is lovely. The pitch sizes are huge too.

Disliked: A bit on the expensive side compared to many sites but worth it for the views in our opinion.

Ventzi S. The reviewer booked through Pitchup.com

Paddock powered grass tent or campervan campsite (large)

Liked: Beautiful site, lovely friendly family running the site amongst their farm, perfect location, very quiet, the onsite facilities were brilliant (especially the hot tub), also lots of activities to choose from, clean and warm toilets and showers (with lovely hot water), covered washing station, sleeping next to fields of sheep and goats, and waking up to chickens at the pitch was brilliant. I couldn’t recommend this site more, we’ll be back again next year

Disliked: None

Orchard powered grass tent campsite (large, five person)

Liked: Irton House Farm is the most beautiful, small, friendly campsite. Location is great, views are amazing and the owners are friendly and helpful. The wildlife was lovely which gave my little girls hours of fun and joy. Showers and toilets are fantastic and always clean. I cannot fault this place and we will be returning!

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thanks for the kind and great review. That horse is a real softy and definitely enjoys a carrot or apple from the visitors. Gald to here you had a good camping trip.

Local attractions

It’s all about getting outdoors around here – there are walks galore through the area’s stunning scenery (not just lakes but also fells, forests and mountains). Routes are around for all abilities, from accessible ‘miles without stiles’ walks through to scrambles up Skiddaw (the 931-metre peak is 20 minutes’ drive from the farm). Put your boots aside for a while to favour other activities – head to Whinlatter Forest Park (20 minutes' drive) for mountain biking, Derwentwater (20 minutes) for kayaking and trout fishing, or Cockermouth Golf Club (10 minutes) for a round or two. If you’ve got the kids with you, you may like to take a trip to the Lake District Wildlife Park; if not, a dram at the Lakes Distillery or a tour of Jennings Castle Brewery may be on the cards. And of course it’s always worth making a point of visiting the Derwent Pencil Museum, 15 minutes away in Keswick.
