What customers say

A peaceful, quiet spot with lovely countryside views. Clean facilities, hot showers and good pitches. Great for walks and pubs. Some found facilities basic, the site a bit worn, and pitches small, with occasional lighting/shower issues.

Electric gravel and earth touring pitch

Liked This site was lovely and peaceful. Small but perfectly formed. You had all the facilities you needed. Yes they were basic, but were kept clean and tidy. It was lovely to spend an evening watching the cows grazing in the field opposite.

Electric gravel and earth touring pitch

Liked Einfacher, sauberer und sehr ruhiger Stellplatz. Alles was man benötigt ist da. Etwas in die Jahre gekommen, aber alles in allem ein guter Platz

Disliked Nicht direkt negativ, aber es gibt nur zwei Toiletten für den ganzen Stellplatz. Sollte man dran denken.

Local attractions

Take the trail of the remains of a 73-mile Roman wall through rural landscapes… and when you’ve finished with Hadrian’s Wall (half an hour’s drive), pedal, hike or trot your way through the gorgeous North Pennines National Landscape (10 minutes) or let yourself unwind with watersports, paddles and more properly good hikes in the Lake District National Park (30 minutes). The Solway Coast National Landscape (45 minutes) is there when you’re in need of some stunning seaside scenery instead. As for sailing or fishing, well, Talkin Tarn Country Park (10 minutes) is the place for that. Golf is just 30 minutes away too – and as for racing events, they can be found over at the Carlisle Racecourse (20 minutes). For low-key days of shopping, sightseeing and strolling the streets, Brampton (15 minutes) has a market and ruined abbey, while the market town of Penrith (half an hour) has another great buzzy atmosphere. If it’s ancient villages and riverside strolls that also take your fancy, then you’ll have easy enough access to the Vale of Eden (30 minutes) from this site.
