Irton House Farm

Tyckte om: Perfect weekend away with a group of friends (couples). The owner was very accommodating and friendly. My electric lead was too small and so he very kindly leant me a longer one. He’s built a huge fire pit with benches away from fellow campers, perfect if there’s a few of you so you’re not disturbing anyone at night. He also supplied the wood and kindling for a fair price. I stayed on the Orchard field which has the benefit of mostly private pitches and my friends stayed on the Paddock field which has the most incredible views! The toilets and showers are regularly cleaned and are spotless with air fresheners and really nice smelling hand wash. There’s a freezer available for freezing your ice packs and 2 sinks for pot washing (with an INCREDIBLE view of mountains / waters). It’s an ideal site for relaxation, hikes and exploring the local towns.

Tyckte inte om: If you’re on the Orchard field, you can’t drive on to unpack and re pack the car. Wheelbarrows are provided instead so lots of back and forth which is a a sweaty job on a hot day.

Tyckte om: Easy to find little campsite in the most stunning location with well organised 'booking in' process. Love the fact that cars dont go on the grass, the wheelbarrows were amazingly useful and the astroturf on the pitch made such a difference to the cleanliness of the tent both during the stay and when packing up. you would do well to take rock pegs though as the cheaper ones just dont hack it. We stayed in the Orchard paddock which had hedge screening round some of the pitches giving lovely privacy, there are only 6 in total, the Paddock had just amazing views down to the Lake. Privacy or views - your choice. Showers toilets and washing up area so lovely and clean and some really great activities to do whilst on the farm if you have the time! Friendly chickens who wanted to spend time with you, although the dog was not so keen. Fire pits at each pitch with logs available from the farmhouse. Lovely owners who just wanted you to enjoy your stay, and who address any concerns extremely promptly. There is a lovely large fire pit and benches away from the pitches if you are part of a group who want to chat late into the night without disturbing your fellow campers and watch the sunset over the fields.

Tyckte inte om: sadly not all campers seem to know how to adjust their voices to 'campsite level' later in the evening, and words needed to be had. The owner was also helpful with another issue with a different group. Not to spoil peoples enjoyment, but as the owner is so good as to provided facilities for those who wanted to chat and be very happy late into the night or to partake of the old woo woo away from those who dont want to, then use them.

Tyckte om: Uitzicht en ligging

Tyckte inte om: Tegen het weekend te vol en te rumoerig om van een prettig verblijf te kunnen spreken

Tyckte inte om: Too far from where we live

Från föreståndaren: We recommend that if you are too far away, staying longer helps :). Thanks for the review.

Tyckte om: The pictures don’t do the views justice, even with the rain it was so gorgeous! Very clean toilet facilities and even had a games room with a pool and table tennis table. Owners were very helpful with recommending places for us to go, and showing us around the site. Wish we could’ve stayed for longer!

Tyckte inte om: No WiFi but the 4G signal was strong so this wasn’t really an issue in the end :)

Från föreståndaren: Glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Yep 4G signal is great from the site, while we continue to push for better wifi infrastructure provision in our rural location. Good top see you got some great walking in from the campsite.

Tyckte om: The welcome was second to no one, the scenery and views knock you over, the showers/toilets -you could eat your breakfast in! It’s beautiful. It’s organised. It’s supremely clean and peaceful. Absolutely perfect!

Från föreståndaren: Thanks for taking the time to post your comments and review. Much appreciated.

Tyckte om: Lovely site to camp on with new modern toilets and wetrooms that were kept very clean and tidy. Nice and peaceful, owners are lovely and there if you need anything. The views are some of the best you will get. Highly recommend if you would like a quiet site with not many pitches.

Tyckte om: The views! Excellent and clean amenities; run by a friendly and helpful family team. The delightful woolly neighbours 🐏🐏 Oh, did I mention the views?

Tyckte inte om: Having to leave…

Rekommendera för vänner Besök igen

Från föreståndaren: Your woolly friends are missing you already. Thanks for the review and look forward to seeing you back again.

Tyckte om: Everything was amazing. The view, the sheep, the chickens, the facilities, the service. Only stayed one night but will definitely be back. A small campsite run by a lovely couple who are building something truly special. Being selfish, I’d like to keep it a secret but this couple deserve every success for what they are creating here.
