This campsite was a really lovely find, probably the best we’ve stayed at in the last two weeks (on the way back from the nc500) The showers/toilets here are totally awesome, modern clean and spacious. Paul the site manager was so helpful and friendly I can’t recommend this site highly enough! The icing on the cake for this site is a smashing pub with great good just yards away

Thank you Jacqui I'm glad that your NC500 trip was a success and staying at Little Acre added to your big trip. Paul

Lovely quiet little family run site, with spaces for motorhomes, caravans and tents. All motor pitches have water and electric hookup. A brand new toilet and shower block is now open, washing up and laundry machines are also in the block. We hand a lovely stay. Site definitely recommended and we will return. A* 👍🏻

Very friendly welcome. Site shows all the signs of lots of investment and is very well maintained. Facility blocks are some the best we have encountered and worth the small charge for a shower. Location is great for walking along the adjacent canal. The only negative I can identify is traffic noise, which only reduces very late in the day.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesApr 2024

This was our last night away having done a mini tour round Ayrshire, Galloway Forest and the Lakes, so plenty of sites to compare and this was the nicest site of all. Not just quiet and peaceful but the facilities were spotless. The owners obviously take a great pride in their business and were very welcoming on arrival. Would stay here again in a flash when up in that neck of the woods.

Hello Steve It sounds like your trip was a great success. Thank you for staying with us and rating us so highly. Hopefully we'll be able to host you again in the future. Paul

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesApr 2024

Good comms ahead of our visit meant we knew exactly which pitch and where it was prior to arrival. It’s less than 5 minutes from the M6, making it handy as a stopover. We had pretty much set up when the owner came over. Very friendly greeting and he showed us where the facilities were located.The new toilet/shower/amenities block was outstanding. Very clean and tidy, there were individual shower rooms and toilets. They were finished to a very high standard. Our pitch had a slight slope but easily fixed with ramps. Plenty of fresh water taps dotted around the site too. The site was clean, tidy and well maintained. Out of the gate and straight into the canal towpath opposite meant easy walking with dogs. We would happily visit again

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Small PitchApr 2024

Simply superb in every way. The location is brilliant for reaching so many places or for just one night stopover en route to the north or south. Minutes off the motorway but you cannot hear anything but the local surroundings. Walks all around plus the added bonus of an amazing pub within a moment's walk - food, hospitality and beer are brilliant. Dog-friendly and just like the Little Acre team- faultless 😀 Thank you all.

Thank you Bruce - that is a lovely review of your stay. Safe travels Paul

Lovely little site with one of the nicest toilet blocks we've used. Greeted by Paul the warden on arrival and given the choice of pitch as it was quiet. Only stayed 2 nights as we wanted to try our new motorhome out but will definitely return. Lovely walks along the Lancaster Canal which runs along side the site and a great pub 200 yards away! Highly recommended!

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Motorhome and Campervan PitchesApr 2024

We had stayed on this little camp site before and we thought it was amazing, sine then they have added a new toilet and shower block and all we can say is “WOW hotel standard or better “ Always clean and quiet, the owners are very friendly and helpful, pub/restaurant within walking distance and close enough to be near all areas of the Lake District but far enough away to be away from the hustle and bustle of the tourist areas. Perfect place for a perfect break, yes would happily stay again.

Hi Alexander Thank you for being a returning visitor to Little Acre, and yes, we'd happily host you again ! Paul & Sarah

Only stayed for a 1 night stop-off, but it was a lovely place. The facilities were very modern and spotless. The host was very nice and friendly. Close to electric hook up and water. It was really lovely to take a walk along the canal. The entrance of the canal is right across the road from the gate!

Thank you for staying with us Pamela and rating Little Acre at 5*'s. We try to meet and greet everyone and make sure that all is good with their pitch - and then as much as possible, leave people be to enjoy themselves! It will be lovely to host you again in the future. Paul.

We booked Little Acre as part of a 2 week road trip and it was night 14 of 14. We booked it last minute on our way home. So glad we found you. Wow, what a find and what an absolute gem of a campsite - what a fabulous place to stay. The owners, Paul and Sarah, were lovely and so welcoming. The icing on the cake here was the showers. We stayed at loads of sites during our road trip and by far the facilities here were the best we had experienced. We hope to plan a break in the Lake District in the future and will be back to stay. Fabulous - thank you so much.

Site's response

Thank you, Izzy. I'm glad that you were able to close off your road trip with us and that your trip was such a great success. Fingers crossed that your Lake District plans come off and that we can host you another time. Paul & Sarah.
