What customers say
Spacious farm campsite, great views, near hiking. Friendly staff, a cool barn cafe, and farm animals (goats!) get rave reviews. While you can pick your spot and have fires, some found it sloped. Toilets/showers upgraded, but portaloos and no dishwashing sink mentioned. Occasional plane/road noise.

Primitive grass and earth campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Very welcoming introduction to the camp site while getting shown around, we could choose anywhere we wanted to set up camp which was great, short walk to the fishery and a 20 minute walk to the seven falls which is beautiful every step of the way, also had the help from the campsite as I asked for some help and they gave me a map to get there which was very helpful, the campsite has toilets and showers which are clean for a campsite, very impressed and I will definitely be visiting again🙂

From the manager: Hi Anita,
The waterfalls aren't ours, they are on United Utilities land, they are just a popular walk that has become very popular but not what we consider main tourism attraction, no carpark or entrance fee, just a lovely walk.
I don't even consider us (Crossgate Campsite) to be a commercial site like Butlins or Haven, just a small family farm Campsite open in the summer.
Im glad you liked the views and the animals.
We have 3 large 1100lt commercial general waste bins and 2 x 1100lt recycling bins, im not sure how you didn't see them at the campsite entrance.
But if you come to camp again ill be sure to point them out to you.
Thank you

Primitive grass and earth campervan, tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked Warm welcome from the owners and peacocks 🦚.
Facilities are basic but clean and well maintained.
Field is not level so remember to be levelling blocks! I thankfully remembered mine so was not an issue.
The walks in the area are stunning.
Over all it is a great site and one I’ll definitely be going back to.
