  • Quiet back-to-basics camping on a working farm in Grange-over-Sands
  • A five-minute drive to Cartmel; 20 minutes to Windermere
  • Dog-friendly site with Morecambe Bay views
At a peaceful countryside location with outstanding views over Morecambe Bay, Low Fell Gate Farm Campsite is a back-to-basics spot for those of you who like to get off grid but remain reassuringly close to civilisation. There’s easy access from the M6 at Junction 36, and you’re only a five-minute drive from Grange-over-Sands railway station. You can walk into Grange-over-Sands in 15 minutes, to source bits and bobs for the barbecue, try out the local pubs and then clear your head by walking along the seafront promenade. The pretty medieval village of Cartmel has indie food shops to nose around and a micro-brewery, as well as a handful of restaurants and takeaways. Drive north towards the Lakes and you’re at Windermere in 20 minutes, for all sorts of water-based activities from sailing to paddleboarding and canoeing. Don’t want to get wet? You can also cross the lake on an old-world cruiser, explore cutesy waterfront villages like Bowness and Ambleside, or get up into the hills for some healthy hiking. Back at site, simple facilities include running water for washing up, and portable toilets. This is a working farm, so while your pet pooches are welcome too, please keep them on a lead and under control at all times. It's also a peaceful place, so there's a no-noise rule in place after 10pm.

What customers say

This is a basic, no-frills campsite offering exceptional views over Morecambe Bay. Praised for its peaceful atmosphere and proximity to Grange-over-Sands. Facilities are limited to portaloos, but many found them clean. Some noted sloping pitches and mud in wet weather, plus occasional noise from other campers. Good value for views and a relaxed stay.

Primitive grass campervan campsite

Liked Good campsite, not a lot there so if you are self sufficient or just staying for one night maybe 2 then its perfect. I must admit though, paying cash when I got there, you dont know who's who, be better if they had identification so you know you weren't being scammed but turned out okay.

Disliked Choose your spot wisely as its not all level

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite

Liked The view is beautiful! It was very peaceful when we came on Thursday until more people came closer to the weekend. The campsite was getting busier every day but still not too much of noise and we had the best time.

Disliked The owner was collecting money constantly it was quite disturbing in the evening when she goes with her van around the field. The car noise and lights in the faces was not nice

Local attractions

Golfers can practise their swing on seafront links or a hilltop course (both five minutes’ drive) with Lakes views. Experienced riders might like the chance to hack across the fells on rare-breed Friesian horses (10 minutes), while horse-lovers of the betting kind can catch race meetings at Cartmel Racecourse. There’s plenty of beach walking on offer too, on the wide expanse of Morecambe Bay’s Silverdale Coast (30 minutes) or Blackstone Point (35 minutes), and you’ll come across salt marshes and woodland trails at Roudsea Wood and Mosses National Nature Reserve (15 minutes). For something a bit more vigorous, The Old Man of Coniston (45 minutes) is a challenging mountain hike rewarded with spectacular views across the Lake District. To up the cultural vibe, there are summer theatre evenings and guided tours at Holker Hall and Gardens (10 minutes), and Grasmere (50 minutes) has several Wordsworth-related attractions and 17th-century cottages owned by the National Trust.
