Liked: The views were lovely and it was nice to be surrounded by nature. It was a peaceful site (except for the squealing pigs at 0150 - which as you can imagine, scared the life out of me!) It was good to be able to chose our own pitch.
Disliked: No lights in bathrooms except over night. The bathrooms are quite dark and it meant it was quite difficult to see. Mirrors in bathrooms are awkwardly situated. Not all bathrooms had mirrors. Said kettle didn't work as generator on at certain times. After a 6 hour drive we were desperate for a cup of tea - luckily some fellow visitors lent us some gas so we could make a cup.

Liked: We booked this campsite last minute after deciding to travel to The Lake District from Bristol. The campsite is lovely, it has everything you might need and more…. Including little piglets. We stayed Friday - Monday and on Saturday they had a dj, it was amazing everyone was up dancing even the owners! Honestly recommend to anyone wanting to go the Lake District or to just go camping here. Best campsite ever!!

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked: The campsite was lovely with good facilities (the toilets and showers by the farmhouse are much nicer than the ones by the car park!). They were kept clean but toilet paper was often hard to come by! The kitchen was well set up. It's a great idea having a kettle and microwave as it makes camping cooking so much easier. The food truck was open on Saturday evening and the food was very tasty. Mike and Ruth were friendly and non-obtrusive and Mike came round the campsite at least once a day to make sure everyone was okay.
Disliked: It was a little confusing when we got there, as we didn't know where to go to find the camping field or what to do (the welcome email had arrived while we were travelling). The food pricing is also a bit out of date as we were charged more than advertised. Other campers said the same thing.

From the manager: Thanks for the lovely review. Regarding the pricing of food on Saturday night. Like most hospitality business's in Cumbria we are really short staffed. I was on taking orders ( not something I have done this year) and I do know that I made some mistakes. I organise staffing & usually and walk around checking all is Ok, we were down to third chef, it was a bit of a challenge. Anyone who released the pricing was wrong was immediately refunded. I could not do that If I didn't know, or wasn't alerted to a mistake!!

Liked: We loved our stay at crake trees manor! Lovely clean showers- heated floors were a bonus! We really enjoyed the combine shed with crag sow on the Saturday night! With pizzas & burgers.

From the manager: Thank you We work hard to try and make our site welcoming and a little bit different. Campers and Glampers ( plus local people from the villages) really enjoy our Farm kitchen and summer music nights.
Gorgeous place to stay! Lovely people and good entertainment.

Disliked: Nothing not to like.

Green camping pod
Liked: Stayed in the pods. Basic as expected, clean with beautiful views. Fire pit with starter kit lasted us 2 nights . The kitchen and toilet/shower block was a 60 second walk . Good powerful showers with hot water . What made the visit was the barn and live music on the Saturday , and not forgetting the owners who clearly work their backsides off in order to keep this place as lovely as it is. Can’t wait to return
