Aerial of Little Acre Camping with the surrounding countryside

Whether you're exploring the Dales or the Lakes, Little Acre Camping is ideal - only a 15 minute drive from both. Relax in the tent here and take the pooch for a stroll by the peaceful Lancaster Canal (just adjacent to site) or hop on a bus to Kendal or Kirkby Lonsdale (both 15 minutes away). Just across the road, is the popular dog friendly Crooklands Hotel, with a bar and very good food served all day. The site is for adults (16+) only!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2023

Helpful staff, family-owned business with nice, clean facilities and a beautiful location and nice scenery. Quiet, clean, and welcoming, with impeccably clean showers/toilet block. It's about 30 mins from Lake Windermere, through some glorious countryside and there's a lovely pub over the road that serves food. The price was very reasonable too.

A beautiful little campsite in a great spot for exploring the Lakes. We have stayed here for the last two years as a base for the Great North Swim. Sandra and Paul are just lovely- kind, welcoming and really helpful. Peaceful location, with stunning views, great for small children to have a good run around on the field and make new friends. Basic, clean facilities with everything you need, although new fancy shower block is being built. Will be back again and again.

Excellent un-fussy, quiet, well-cared-for site. Paul does an excellent job of keeping everything under control. I cannot fault the site for location, just a few minutes off the M6 (junction 36), out of the site entrance cross the road through the gateway and hey presto the Lancaster Canal! Facilities would have got 5 stars, but they are a little dated, but they are in the process of being updated. Overall our stay was a great break from our normal routine and we went home well relaxed and refreshed. A return in the future is definitely on the cards.

Thank you for the lovely review Brian. Hopefully, for your next stay, we'll get those 5*'s from you. Yes, the "green block" is coming to the end of its life span! It's always clean, it's always fully stocked and it functions as designed, but the shower, loo and laundry block that is replacing it is going to be better in every possible way. See you next time. Paul

We loved our stay at Little Acre. The location is perfect for exploring. The Lakes and the Dales are on the doorstep! The facilities are lovely and clean (the shampoo, soap and conditioner dispensers are a great addition) and when the new shower block opens, it will be even better. The owners are friendly and helpful, and always on hand to help with whatever you need. All in all, a lovely place to stay.

Thank you for the lovely review, David. Like you, we can't wait for the new facilities to be opened - since your stay, we're several steps closer to that happy day! Paul

A very handy location as I was helping out at the Country Fest just down the road. Friendly owners and very helpful. Good facilities. Would revisit and recommend to people.
