Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Peace and quiet and stunning views. Drinking water, chemical point and bin on site. Just as described. Loads of room. Noise from tank range up the road day and night but not late....didn't bother us though. Only three vans including ours.

Great stop off point we will be back to explore the area.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Very remote. Arrived late as we were using this as a stop off on route to Scotland. Not far from the main road but a world away.

Disliked: There is nothing to dislike, as there is nothing there. There's a tap we found but that's the extent of the services. You need to be self sufficient. It was dry so access was not an issue.

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Peaceful site. Literally just a water tap and a elsan point. Pitch where you want so you basically end up with loads of space. Had full 5g signal on 'three'. I used solar, but a neighbour had a genny, it wasn't loud by any means, wish I'd took mine. I would certainly go back

Disliked: Nothing

Primitive grass travel trailer campsite

Liked: Close to the village, views a beautiful, piece full, Quite & spaciously set out. Would recommend to anyone without children.

Disliked: Water pipe set up could benefit from a grid installation to avoid mud build up into slurry.

Local attractions

Where to head first? With both the Lake District National Park (25 minutes’ drive) and the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (15 minutes) so close, you’ll have plenty of options. Go west to Ullswater (40 minutes) for cruises on a steamer, or turn north to tour historic Killhope Lead Mining Museum (an hour) and drive the spectacular Hardside Pass (40 minutes). And if you’d rather discover Cumbria under your own steam, there are cycling routes and hiking trails across the region, with options including the challenging Pennine Way (half an hour) and the Coast to Coast Walk (20 minutes) and the Cumbria Cycle Way (50 minutes). For gentler pastimes combined with a dose of history, have a nose around the crumbling ruins of Lowther Castle and Gardens (half an hour), take a picnic to Penrith Castle (25 minutes) on a sunny day, or check out the landscaped gardens and working watermill at Acorn Bank (20 minutes).
