Stybeck Farm

Liked Great location between Keswick and Grasmere. Very easy to get to travelling from either north or south on M6.

Disliked Toilets and shower could be a bit cleaner. Those looking for quiet mornings may want to look elsewhere as this is a working farm with sheep, chickens, donkeys, and very vocal sheepdogs.

Liked Quiet, unfussy site - good basics, clean facilities and hot showers (take pound coins!). Ideal location for anything on the 555 bus route. Louise was super friendly but not intrusive. It's a working farm, so don't expect glamour - but do expect a peaceful break (without much signal!). Cafe 5 minutes away is a bonus.

Liked Instant access to the walking trails. Pub nearby and very welcoming hosts.
A proper 'rustic' feel to the place, so don't go expecting super modern facilities.

Disliked Slightly steep access to some of the pitches, but OK for 90% of vans and confident drivers.

Liked Views. Location was very good and staying on a working farm so that you get to see the animals. Buses run from outside the farm so if you don't feel like driving this is an option to use public transport.

Disliked Not all pitches are level. There is no WIFI and mobile reception not good in the valley

Liked Great place we stayed over on Saturday to Sunday , fantastic hospitality from the owner Louise the owner. Very clean facilities. Our first time trying a new VW California ,will be back when we get our own VW. Ged & Karen

Disliked Nothing.

Liked The friendly owners / farmer are nice. The bus into Keswick at the farm entrance is handy. It's a cheap site.

Disliked This place was not for me! It is more a base to park your van and walk. It's tight on space, not particularly pretty, the toilets are 2 small outside loos accessed through the main farm yard - there are 5 or 6 dogs in outbuildings and they bark madly every time you cross the yard. Even at night. And you cannot walk your own dog across the yard, you have to go around the long way. The shower is a small dark outside room, I didnt want to go in there. No where to brush teeth etc, just the hand sink in the loo. The dish washing sink is a cold tap and a wonky old sink outside, the bins were overflowing. The road noise is annoying.

Liked We loved it all ....it's as described ...Working farm , so animal nosies and farm noises which we enjoyed listening too , the Happy Donkey was ace to hear in the morning, great location for walkers it's close to the local bus so didn't have to move the van , we walled everyday , could stayed a month and still find plenty walks left to do, bus stop is at the drive entrance £3 where ever your going, the views are amazing , On arrival we just went in a space hooked up and looked for the owner later to pay , we found the owner easy going and chatty , Toilets and shower basic but very clean £1 in the shower lasted ages Place to empty your loo easy to use , small pot wash area , Plenty room between vans , We really enjoyed our stay and will book direct next time with the owner - Coffee shop and pub close by And no signal which we again appreciated

Disliked Nothing to dislike it's as described working busy farm

Liked Great site very peaceful, beautiful scenery & good base for lots of walks. We stayed for a week & will definitely be returning. Family were great very helpful & friendly. Bus service from the bottom of the drive to Keswick or Kendal for £3 & run every half hour

Liked Enjoyed my stay at Stybeck Farm and its rustic charm. Would recommend to anyone who wants a quiet break and us not too far from Keswick 😊

Liked Location , peaceful , we had electric hook up , had almost everything we needed.

Disliked Only thing we could have done with, somewhere to get rid of toilet waste from our camper van .

From the manager: Hi Sorry we do have a chemical disposal.
