  • Well-maintained peaceful park a minute's stroll from the beach
  • Half a mile from Haverigg and within walking distance of shops/pubs
  • Barbecues allowed; beachside café by the sand dunes
On the Cumbrian coast within a minute's stroll of a sandy beach – what an utter stunner. Butterflowers Holiday Park is in spectacular setting on the coast and with easy access to the Lake District, next to a café which overlooks an adventure play area, sand dunes and the sea. It's half a mile from the small fishing village of Haverigg, on the Duddon estuary five minutes' drive from Millom. Coniston Water and Barrow-in-Furness are both within 50 minutes; Kendal is just over an hour away, and outdoor options like hiking, golfing, pony trekking and fishing are all nearby. Leisurely pursuits are well sorted on site too, with that beachside café for alfresco bites overlooking the water. Barbecues are allowed: shops as well as pubs serving food are within walking distance. Dogs are welcome to come and stay at Butterflowers Holiday Park throughout the camping season.

What customers say

Well-kept, friendly campsite near a lovely beach and shops. Pitches are neat and spacious. Staff are praised for being helpful. Facilities are clean but a bit dated. Quiet, though some mention kid/resident noise. No WiFi.

Alfred J.

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch

Liked The site was easy to find and easy access, very friendly staff, lovely area with the beech a couple of minutes walk, brilliant children's play area just outside the entrance which is well equipped.

Disliked The pitches are a little small and when it rained (storm Floris) turned into a puddle, not a lot to do in the area, only a shop, chippy and pub in the village, the toilets/showers were kept very clean BUT only 1 hand dryer in both, (Male & Female) a lot of B roads to reach the camp from the A590 which at times were a little tight with oncoming traffic, NO camp wifi and data signal was poor.

Local attractions

Start your local activities with a couple of hours at Millom Discovery Centre, five minutes' drive away at Millom station on the Cumbria Coastal Line. The centre has a museum, a Rail Room with exhibits on the area's railway heritage, a mining area with a full-sized mining cage, and a café, gift shop and prehistory gallery. Adventurous kids – and their grownups – should also like the costume room, where a nicely eclectic selection of 18th- and 19th-century threads await for dressing up. It's 10 minutes' drive from Butterflowers to the Hodbarrow RSPB reserve, a coastal lagoon on a former iron mine overlooking the Duddon estuary. Terns, oystercatchers, ringed plovers and redshanks are among the species that flock here; look out too for the protected great crested grebes on the reserve's island. Venturing further afield, take a ride on the Ravenglass & Eskdale Steam Railway (half an hour) or the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway from Haverthwaite Station (40 minutes). Kids might like the Lakes Aquarium in Newby Bridge (50 minutes), Grizedale Forest's Go Ape (an hour) or Muncaster Castle (half an hour). Windermere is an hour and five minutes away.
