  • Well-kept touring site 10 minutes’ drive from Milnthorpe in Cumbria
  • Lake District National Park and Sizergh Castle both 10 minutes’ drive
  • Fly fishery, café and modern showers five minutes’ drive from the M6
Farletonview is a family-run site on a diversified farm surrounded by spectacular Cumbrian countryside; every hardstanding tourer pitch has glorious views over Farleton Knott and the fells, yet you’re an easy 10 minutes’ drive from shops and services in Milnthorpe. Farletonview is handy for exploring North Lancashire and Cumbria, while both the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales national parks are easy to get to as the site is only about five minutes’ drive from Junction 36 of the M6. If you’d prefer to abandon the car while on site, it’s 20 minutes’ walk to the nearest bus stop for Kendal or Kirkby Lonsdale. After a busy day out and about, you can refuel on tasty homemade soup, sausage rolls and cakes in the tearoom; alternatively it’s 20 minutes’ walk to the local pub for bar snacks and meals. You have a good choice of inns and takeaways within 10 minutes’ drive as well. There’s no reason to stray too far from your pitch if you don’t feel like it though. Angling folk will be hard to budge from the fly-fishing lake, which operates on a catch-and-release with permits available on site – and if you’re looking for unusual souvenirs of your Cumbria stay, stock up on cottage-garden perennials at the plant nursery. Practical amenities on site include showers, a washing-up station and waste and grey water disposal.

What customers say

Highly recommended, spotless, well-kept site with large, level pitches. Immaculate, modern facilities, praised as first-class. Friendly owners are a highlight. Popular tearoom & nursery on-site. Peaceful, scenic, despite M6 proximity, though some note occasional road noise. Minor points: shower temp, Wi-Fi.

 Phil S. 1 review

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked The pitch was hard standing with grass, fully serviced which was great. The shower/toilet facilities were modern and well equipped at rooms, a bit weird when the cafe was open, as non campers attending just for the cafe and garden centre are watching on as you approach and leave as it's part of the same building. Met and get was great, really friendly and helpful, line the scooter escort to put porch.
Location wise, great for M6 access, bit a lot of driving for us as we were visiting the lakes, so regret not staying further in near coniston etc.
Garden centre on site was great too, reasonable prices and good choice of plants.

Disliked Location, great for leaving day, not great for visiting the lake District unless you like driving around the lakes. Road noise at night was more prominent than I thought it would be, if on a tent, quite noticeable.

FHU cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Great owners, great showers and toilets (yes a tad too hot for me) i do like mine a bit cooler, but that's me. Perfect pitches. Lovely views

Disliked the noise from the motor way, so when asked at the end of this review, this would be the only reason i wouldn't return

Liked Spacious clean pitch with hook ups nearby. Staph were wonderful and helped us hitch up the caravan when we were having difficulties. The showers were well equipped and lovely. It is a lovely, well kept site with views over the fishing lake and the cafe was a lovely bonus. Highly recommend.

It’s hard to know what to do first when you’re staying at Farletonview, as there’s a whole raft of options within 10 minutes’ drive of the site. For those of you who like to have a nose around old houses, Levens Hall is a statuesque Elizabethan mansion with spectacular knot gardens and walks through parkland, and National Trust-owned Sizergh is a 14th-century castle with period furniture in sumptuous wood-panelled rooms.

Only slightly further away is the popular hill walk up Arnside Knott (15 minutes) for views over the Irish Sea. Not quite what you’re after? Get out on the water with a boat cruise around Lake Windermere (20 minutes), have a flutter on the horses at Cartmel Racecourse (25 minutes), or slip over the county lines for a foray up to stunning Hardraw Force waterfall (45 minutes) in the Yorkshire Dales National Park (20 minutes).
