Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesOct 2026

Super friendly welcome, beautifully kept site. Exquisite facilities that were very clean. Great location next to a canal, which is ideal for dog walks. Great pub less than 5 minutes walk that serves wonderful food. Unbelievable that this site is less than 2 miles from the M6. We would certainly stay there again!

Site's response

Hi Marcus Thank you for staying with us this weekend. With us being less than 2 miles from Junct 36 on the M6 and 20 mins from the Yorkshire Dales and Lake District our location works out really well for folk who are touring. And a canal towpath on our doorstep and dog friendly pub across the road works well for people who want to stay close !! Paul & Sarah

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

I particularly appreciated the quality of the facilities: toilets, showers and wash-up facilities were spacious, warm, and spotlessly clean. The 20p meter on the shower helped to encourage considerate use. The proximity to the excellent Crooklands pub was another stand-out feature, as was the absence of unnecessary lighting, which allowed me to appreciate a clear starry sky.

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

Beautiful little site in pretty countryside. Very clean and facilities excellent. Opposite a canal with swans, ducks, heron and squirrels, great for a dog walk. Owner was very friendly and helpful. We would definitely highly recommend this site. We had booked three nights but liked it so much stayed an extra night.

Site's response

Hi Jilian One of the nicest things that happens at Little Acre is when someone makes a booking and then likes the site so much that they extend their stay with us. Thank you very much and I'm glad that you're time with us worked out so well. Paul

Very good campsite

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

Convenient location for visiting coast, south lakes as well as countryside. Nice walks in surrounding area and cycling along canal towpath. Sufficient showers and toilets for our visit but wonder if they are stretched in peak season, however these facilities were modern and clean.

Site's response

Hi Steven, I'm glad that you enjoyed your recent stay with us at Little Acre. As well as the shower and loo block that you used whilst you were with us, we also have another, larger shower and loo block and even when we're at 100% capacity, we have absolutely no issues. Enjoy your travels! - Paul

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

Lovely well maintained small campsite, great location and close to lots of walks a good pub and facilities. Paid for showers even at 20p a go felt a bit much after paying site fees, and also inconvenient.

Site's response

Hello Paul, Thank you for recently staying at our charming oasis. For a while, the showers were "free" and we had multiple instances of people hogging the showers for 15-20 minutes at a time, which thoroughly upset other customers who were waiting for a hot shower and the upsetting them even more when they found that the previous customer has exhausted all of the hot water. From the point that we reintroduced the 20p for 3 min charge, the shower availability has improved enormously and we've never run out of hot water. At the same time as reintroducing the 20p for 3 min charge, we also added complimentary luxury shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and hair dryers, which have proven to be very popular. The 20p for 3 min charge for the showers isn't something that is in any way hidden and is mentioned prominently, in several places on our listing. Enjoy your travels. Paul

An immaculate site a mile from the M6 so a great stopover. It is located right next to the canal for some lovely walks. The Crooklands hotel a short walk away serves delicious food. Facilities some of the best we've seen.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

We have just returned from a night away at Little Acres. Everything was excellent, from the welcome email which provided all the necessary information, to the well tended and immaculate site. We liked that it was adults only and enjoyed a lovely meal at Crooklands pub, we would suggest booking as it became very busy later on. We didn't find the nearby motorway an issue at all, in fact it was very quiet. We would recommend Little Acres and would love to return.

Little acres is a fantastic site. It is very clean and facilities are fantastic even providing shampoo, conditioner, and shower gel in showers - plus washing pods in laundry room. 5 min walk to pub and a canal walk to garage and shop, a great stop off point for anyone going to Scotland from the South at just 10 mins from junction 36 on M6.

I don't really want to share about this site because it's a little gem! Perfect if you have dogs, canal walk across from the site where there's an honesty box that sells beautiful cakes and honey. A pub opposite that is perfect for a drink or meal. The site is very clean and well maintained it's straight off the M6. The owners can't do enough for you, you won't be disappointed!

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2026

Little Acre campsite is conveniently located just off the M6 and is easy to access with large campervan or caravan. Facilities were modern and exceptionally clean. 20p required for shower but 3 minutes is more than enough. Crooklands pub is 2 mins walk and served great food but you need to book. Campsite is on the edge of the canal with lovely walks in both directions. We did a fabulous All Trails circular walk from Hutton Roof. Stunning views and scenery. Everything was super dog friendly too!
