Church Stile Farm and Holiday Park Reviews

Good site location for Scafell Pike hike

Good site location for Scafell Pike hike. Well stocked camp shop. Pizza van on site. Pub located a 5 minute walk away. Saw Mill Café is a 10 minute walk, with nice food. Would stay again.

Honeymoon

Wonderful location. Friendly staff and we loved the pizza van and the coffee at the shop! I think the site would benefit from another block of toilets and showers and perhaps a twice daily clean during peak times.

Excellent

Fantastic service, friendly staff and overall excellent experience.

Wonderful place

It is a lovely place to stay. They have lovely ice-cream - home made :)

Lovely site

For the price of the pitch, you can not go wrong with this lovely isolated area. I would recommended going during the week if possible as it gets a bit busy at weekends, but an amazing stay at an amazing place

Fantastic site and facilities

Great spot. Wonderful site, with everything you need

Beautiful location

The campsite is set within beautiful, picturesque scenery. We enjoyed our stay here. The farm shop was very handy and the pizza from pizza van was delicious. However, the toilet facilities were not very clean. It is a very, very busy campsite and requires a more regular check and clean of them.

Great campsite and location

We had a wonderful few days here. The scenery is beautiful, the site is spacious, clean, great park for the children and really friendly, helpful staff. Pizza’s from the van were delicious too. I would definitely recommend a stay.

Loved this campsite!

Friendly staff, clean bathrooms, great shop for essentials and they do great coffee and pastries too. So pretty around there and a great base for the lake and mountains of all sizes. Really good site for kids, safe and a not too huge, fun playground in the centre of everything and next to the pizza van! We all loved this campsite so much.

Nice site

Nice family park. Handy for that side of the lakes

Weekend away with the boys

Great location and amenities. Staff were very helpful and always had a smile on there faces, even when the weather was a washout! 😆

Great stay

This campsite is great! Staff are really friendly, shop has everything and more, toilet block is clean, showers are warm / powerful, on-site stone baked pizzas, pub across the road and a cafe is a 5 minute walk away. Would highly recommend!

Perfect for what we needed

We came for a kayaking and hiking trip and only needed one night here as part of the trip. The site itself was well laid out into hedged areas for camping with decent sized pitch spaces having lots of room around us, facilities were clean, ample and the farm shop also had extra bits in case we needed it. The farm shop also had free WiFi, which was needed due to poor phone signal. Although you had to be quite close to it to use it, so being on-site the WiFi wasn't being picked up. The only issue we had was some loud people on site after midnight (there's an on-site quiet policy after 11 pm which went ignored by those) and a car tooting their horn at 5:30 am, but obviously, that's just inconsiderate people and nothing to do with the site itself. The staff were really friendly and helpful, which was very welcoming. There is a nice pub very close by too with a friendly atmosphere and decent food (although quite pricey). I'd definitely recommend this site and if we decide to climb Scafell Pike again or kayak in Wast Water then this would be the place for us.

Great place to be

The campsite is in a great location and the surrounding is amazing. The kiosk is well equipped and the service is brilliant and pleasant. Only downside is the toilet/shower area, where cleanliness can definitely be improved - it is not too bad, but would recommend to refurbish the entire building and keep it clean more often during the day.

Great campsite

Nice, friendly and well-run campsite. Great time, will definitely be staying again!

Three nights camping at a great site

Welcomed at the site on arrival and clearly shown where to pitch, as well as all facilities on site. Excellent guidance provided with questions about routes to different places and the local area. No mobile signal (Three) anywhere on site for me, but free wi-fi at the shop was enough when needed. Pizza from the shack on site was delicious and again great service.

Okay for one night

When we arrived we were told to go and find a space in a certain area. There were no spaces although to be fair I didn't arrive until 7:45 pm. We paid for a space though so it was a bit annoying to have to squeeze between two tents. The gentleman in the shop said they close at eight, but the pizza van remains open until nine. At 8:10 pm we went for pizza to be told there were none left. The toilets were clean and showers were okay. The park in general is kept very well. There are some lovely views although, depending on where you are pitched, they may be obscured by overgrown bushes. There was no Wi-Fi available except near to the shop/reception. This was fine as we were only there for one night.

Site's response

Thanks for the feedback and review. Sorry to hear you weren't able to find space to pitch. Had you returned to reception, one of our team would have been more than happy to have helped you locate a better spot for you to fit in to. The pizza van that we have on site is independent to us, so we have no control over their stock levels. However, we will ask him to up the number of pizza doughs that he prepares each evening prior to a day's service. Our Hedgrows are trimmed in the autumn and winter months, in line with DEFRA guidelines. This is to avoid any negative impact on nesting wild birds.

Great stay at Church Stile

Excellent! Will definitely be coming back!

Great place, great location

Great place with a great location. The pizza van was a welcome addition.

Great site

I lucked out. Everybody was friendly. Great place to start long walks.

Fabulous site

Absolutely stunning place to stay, with all the facilities you require. Great friendly staff, even the pizza guy on site was great. Will be recommending it to my friends and family. We travelled from Leeds and the drive was stunning once we left the motorway.

Wonderful campsite

This is such a lovely site, just a walk away from the southern tip of Wast Water, a vast lake stretching up to Wasdale and the start of a walk up to Scafell Pike. The site is well kept and friendly, with a well stocked shop and regularly cleaned facilities. The pizza van was an added bonus! The friendly Strands pub is a stone's throw away. Thanks for a great stay.

Fantastic camping, with amazing scenery

Beautiful campsite. Very clean, big spaces and excellent facilities. Pizza van on site was great value and very tasty! Great walks and climbing nearby. Staff very friendly and helpful. Lovely woodland walk on site. Site is kept very clean, toilets and showers were great. Plenty of hot water and also kept very clean. Great stay and would highly recommend.

Great for short camping trip

Great spot, especially as we were climbing Scafell. Amenities were clean and tidy, shop seems to sell everything and there are pubs close by if you wish to eat out. Very friendly helpful staff. There is no signal on the site, but there is Wi-Fi by the shop.

Excellent campsite

Excellent campsite, perfect location & great facilities. Will definitely visit again!
