First thing I would say, we arrived a day early without any issue, even though it was 21:30, the hosts led us to our pitch in the rain and got us settled. The site is small, washing up area is amazing, free phone charging points and hot water in abundance. Picnic bench in every pitch, facilities for open fire provided, they even sell wood. The deal maker for me and the kids had to be the showers, they were amazing, spotlessly clean and hot water was plentiful. They were stunning. When camping, what more do you need if the facilities are amazing? Sun would be nice but it was Cumbria in April!!

Perfect little base. Camped right by a stream that I imagine in summer months is great fun to go for a dip in. Gorgeous walks right on the doorstep. Fire pits were provided for every pitch. Showers were hot and facilities were super clean. Site owners were very responsive. Oddfellows Arms down the road does lovely food with plenty of veggie options. We’ll be coming back next time we’re in these parts!
Perfect spot for Cumbria Way, please read my review

This was a brilliant campsite, small & quiet. Highly recommended with clean level pitches for a good night's rest. The owner was a lovely lady who helped me with a specific need I had.Facilities are kept clean & the shower is large & water hot. Thanks for the stay.

Things to do on site and in the Wigton area
This base is great for walkers with a woodland walk and the Caldbeck village to explore. The northern Lake District area is full of wonderful walking trails and with the site located on the Cumbrian Way footpath, this is also a great pit stop for those taking on the challenge.
For those looking for an interesting day out, head to Puzzling Place (30 minutes). Here you will find many weird and wonderful illusion exhibitions, a gallery of holograms and 3D images, this is the perfect place to take fun photos to remember your trip by!
From this northern spot, you also have easy access to the nearby city of Carlisle, just 30 minutes away. Get the young ones delving into history at Carlisle Castle, see things on a new scale at the World in Miniature Museum or simply enjoy a day pottering around the charming streets.
Other nearby attractions include:
- Lake District Wildlife Park (20 minutes)
- Aira Force Waterfall (30 minutes)
- Dalemain Mansion and Historic Gardens (30 minutes)
- Threlkeld Quarry and Mining Museum (30 minutes)
- Derwent Pencil Museum (30 minutes)
