Stayed for 2 nights with family with children ranging from the age of 1 to 7. For many of us it was our first time camping and we loved it. Site was clean with fresh water tap available, the kids had loads of room to run free and play safely. A neighbouring farmer was friendly and recommended walks and Drake who was working the weekend we stayed was very attentive. On our second day we visited Devils Bridge which was local enough. Would definitely return

There was plenty of space to pick from and the view was lovely from our spot.

I was disappointed that we couldn’t find a flat spot to park up. This is a very basic site with just a portaloo for facilities.

Brilliant campsite.
There were portaloos and a water supply which was fine for us as we were only staying for one night.
We would definitely stay here again.

A refreshing change to over-manicured campsites with gravel pitches and grass mown to within a millimetre of its life. Kez’s Campsite is essentially a field you can camp in, with cows and sheep just the other side of the dry stone wall. Nice and handy for the M6, so only just an hour away from Manchester.

There are two festival-type toilets at the far end, a water tap on the right just as you go in, and a warm welcome from Kez when you arrive. Minimal but sensible rules. Quiet time is between 1030 and 0730, dogs must be kept on a lead on site, and fires and barbecues allowed provided they’re kept off the ground.

The sunsets were lovely, and what we liked most of all was the amount of space - it’s a big field and we were a long way from anybody. And the fact that the grass is a natural length for a field, rather than a manicured lawn.

No showers - which to be honest we could have done with on one of the hottest days of the year - but we knew that when we booked. If you’ve got a camping shower, bring it!

But there is a village shop 20 minutes walk away, and a lovely farm shop and cafe six minutes drive away. And there’s a Booths and an Aldi in Carnforth.

We went for a lovely walk up on Farleton Knott. Great views up there. Hutton Roof Crags is also an option. There’s a bit of roadside parking up that way if you want to cut a mile each way off you walk.

I did read somewhere that there’s the possibility of playing tennis, but we didn’t look into it. Maybe next time.

There’s no difference between what you get if you’re in a camper van and what you get if you’re camping in a tent - so why charge £25 a night for a van, compared to only £15 for a tent? We take up less space in the field than a car parked next to a tent.

We also have two dogs, so that bumped what could have been a very reasonable £15 a night to £30, which for the level of amenities provided is a little on the steep side. But we’ll be back, nevertheless.

Also not keen on the two women with a barky dog that they let out around 7am, and did nothing to shut it up… but that’s not the campsite’s fault and hopefully they won’t be there next time.

friendly & helpful staff, facilities were basic but clean & such good value :)

Very spacious camp site with a beautiful surrounding area for walking and venturing to the local villages etc. Beautiful sun trap, perfect for family activities like football etc.

I can only make a few comments on the site which I think would be good additions. I’d try and get the grass cut more often as when it’s damp your feet do get quite soaked. Also maybe add another tap with maybe a basin so you can have a face wash, I understand drainage may be an issue so maybe just leave a sign to not rinse soap and detergents to prevent soaking into the ground. Other than that it’s a great little spot for camping.
