About the site
Tucked in a peaceful part of the Cumbria countryside, the site is set at the back of a family run, working farm. The views are spectacular, overlooking rolling farmland and Lakeland fells. Surrounded by charming villages, waterside walks and hiking trails, it is the perfect location for enjoying the outdoors. There are no predetermined pitches as the site likes to give guests the freedom to choose, helping add to the relaxed feel. There is a field that allows up to ten tents and trailer tents with up to four guests each, allowing guests to pitch up on grass without electric. For both tents and tourers, there are also 15 grass pitches available, each with a 6 amp electric hook up. Campervans, caravans, motorhomes and RVs can also opt for one of the five fully serviced, all weather pitches that are set on gravel with 10 amp electric, water hook up and a chemical disposal point. All of these pitches welcome up to eight guests each. For a little slice of luxury, opt for either one of the cosy camping pods or the bell tent. Each pod comes with a double or two single beds and a double floor mattress or space for a camp bed. Each is set in an enclosed garden with a complimentary fire pit and picnic benches, great for those wanting to let their dog off the lead! Inside you will also have a small kitchen area with a mini fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster, microwave and a sink. Electric heating is included and there are power sockets for all the essential appliances. If you want to try something a little different, opt for the fully furnished bell tent. Sleeping up to six, the tent comes equipped with electric, a small kitchen, cutlery and crockery. Outside you will even have your own BBQ and wood-fired hot tub! Fire pits and toasting marshmallows are encouraged. Fire pits are included with the pods or can be hired for campers. Wood can be purchased on site or you are welcome to bring your own. Dogs are also welcome too, with up to five permitted per pitch. Whole site bookings are accepted, ideal for celebrating a big occasion.

Booked here for a couple nights, never been before. Easy to get to decent hardstanding pitches with stunning views. Facilities let it down slightly, was not really an issue for us as we are pretty much self contained. Toilets and showers were getting refurbished so they were out of use. There was a couple of toilets at top end to use but not really enough for the amount of guests, it wouldn't stop us using again though. I look forward to another visit in Summer as it's very central for visiting Keswick, Cockermouth and Workington.
First night of our NC500 trip! Great!

A perfect place to stop of on our trip up to Scotland. It was very windy but had a lovely big field and a fire pit to use. It had everything you'd need and beautiful views! Loved it, thank you!!
