Nice site and location
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Motorhome and Campervan Pitches May 2023 Nice site, close to M6 and southern Lake District. Managers helpful and friendly. Facilities a bit limited, but clean enough and new ones getting built.
Lovely canal walk and pub is decent with good service and food okay. Bus at end of road to Kendal.

Hello Sean. Thank you for the review and recommending Little Acre on Campsites.co.uk.

Probably the easiest stepping stone to the lake district.
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 Easy to find. Easy to access. My journey M1, M6, and there I was.
Shower block very good and very very clean.
Made a great start to the Lake District.
You do the motorway traveling to get there and then relax here, ready to start the next day's smaller roads.

And we even arranged lovely weather for you as well during your stay!
Thank you for the lovely review - as you say, we're very handy for M6 Junction 36, but we aren't troubled by the traffic noise.

Brilliant little site
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2023 This was the first time we have visited this site and we were not disappointed. We were met by Paul who was very welcoming. The toilet block was immaculate and the site was very well looked after. Location brilliant for visiting the surrounding areas. We will definitely be returning. Well done to the family. A*

Peace and quiet
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Motorhome and Campervan Pitches May 2023 Absolutely loved this site, just off junction 36 of the M6. We wanted a few days of peace and quiet and we certainly got it. Paul was extremely helpful with our pitch and we were surprised to find both a hose pipe and hook up lead on our pitch.
We walked across the lane straight onto the canal which is extremely well cared for considering it is disused. There is some slight noise from the road but not enough to disturb you. The site is extremely well maintained and a new shower block and laundry area are being built, although the older facilities are adequate and clean.
The Pub across the main road has excellent food and there's a garage 10 minute walk away if you run out of essentials. There is a bus stop nearby to take you into Kirkby Lonsdale or Kendal in the opposite direction.
It's a great place if you're travelling north or south of the M6 and need a stop over, or if you just want some peace and quiet.

Thank you for staying with us Peter and it will be lovely to host you again when our brand new, shiny toilet, shower and laundry block opens.

Excellent campsite
Apr 2023 We have just returned from a two week stay at Little Acre Campsite, this was our first stay at this site and in this area.
The site's location is so easy to access from the M6 motorway it makes towing the caravan a treat. We were greeted by the owners Paul and Sarah. After telling us where things were on the site and what to do in the area, we were left to pitch up and explore.
We have been caravanning for over 16 years staying at all sorts of different caravan sites, Little Acre Campsite has the best dog walk we have ever come across. It takes you down by the canal with lovely scenery and wildlife and it is so peaceful and lovely.
The Crooklands Hotel across the road from the campsite is a great pit stop on the way back after a day out exploring for a nice refreshment in the beer garden. They also do some amazing meals, although for an evening meal especially at weekends, booking is advisable.
Little Acre Campsite has a fantastic toilet block which is spotlessly clean and well laid out. The showers have been designed so that you have enough room to get changed and showered in comfort. The showers are 20p for three minutes, which is more than enough time to shower and wash your hair. The water is always hot and the sink provided within the shower unit is also a good extra, along with lots of hooks for towels and clothes.
Little Acre Campsite is a great place to stay very dog friendly, Paul and Sarah are excellent hosts. The ice cream van that comes to the site is an added bonus and Paul and Sarah have also organised a meal truck/street food van that comes on a Friday night. We tried the pulled pork which was amazing - definitely an added bonus and an excellent touch.
Would definitely recommend staying at this campsite and we are hoping to return in the near future. Thank you Paul and Sarah for an amazing stay.

Thank you for the lovely review Suzanne (& organising the lovely weather whilst you were here as well). Since you've left, the swan that was nesting 200 yards from us has 9 cygnets keeping her company, which is a lovely sight when strolling along the canal.
It will be lovely to host you again and we'll have a brand new shower, loo and laundry block for you to use.
