Had our first stay at Little Acre. On arrival - wow, it looked stunning - immaculate, nice large pitches and it got even better. We met Paul, the owner. A fantastic guy who was always there to help if needed. We had great walks along canal with our 3 dogs. A perfect relaxing site. Kendal is only 15 minutes for all your shopping. Great walks. There is a fantastic restaurant 500 yards away but you're better off booking as it gets busy. Our only downside was that we had to come back early as one of our pups was not well. Only missed one night. We will be back soon - 10/10

Thank you for the review Stephen. It's lovely to hear that you and the pooches enjoyed their stay with us and exploring the Lancaster Canal towpath. Paul. PS: I hope that your dog got well quickly.
Amazing find!

Lovely place to stay, 1 mile or so from the M6 near Kendal and South Lakes turn off. 10 minutes to Kendal. It has nice facilities on site. The owners should be commended for the high quality of the caravan site. Nice Pub/restaurant 2 minutes walk away. We will go again - it is a lovely place to stay.

Needed to break a long journey and this site hit all the buttons because of easy access to M6. Friendliness. Facilities. Nearby pub. Oh and LPG a short distance away.

Great stay. Paul the owner very accommodating and friendly. Nice little site, quite quiet. Close to the canal and river for a walk with dogs. Could do with a few more toilets as people were queuing up. Overall, a pleasant stay and not to far off the motorway. Good location. Will return again.

It was lovely to host you and I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay Darren. We are building a much larger loo, shower and laundry block this winter, which should improve things for everyone. Paul

We had a lovely welcome from the owner who would stop for chats during the evening. Our pitch was a lovely size and very well maintained. Very good value for money. Great WiFi signal. Could do with a couple more showers there.
Site's response
Thank you for bringing the nice weather when you came Alison - it was appreciated by everyone! When we're busy, extra showers would be very handy for the 2 hour, peak times of the day, for the other 22 hours they aren't being used! When the new shower block is installed next year, things should improve (although I bet we still could do with more for the busiest times, on the busiest days!) Paul p.s. your daughter seemed to find the free wifi a hit!

What can I say. Absolutely fantastic. The owner came to greet us and as it was our first time. He guided us with the ramps for our van. The site is beautiful showers toilets and washing up facilities. The lake is lovely to walk and swim in. We will definitely be back here. Thank you

I'm glad that your pioneering trip out was an enjoyable success for you Candice. It would be lovely to host you again in the future (please bring the sunshine with you again). Paul.

Great out of the way campsite, but be prepared for a drive into town. We stayed just the one night on our way to the Lake District. We didn't manage to book into the hotel/pub across the road, so ended up having to take the motorhome into the local town (about 4mi) to be able to get provisions - something we didn't think about! It could be quiet and some nice walks about, but be wary with smaller kids as its close to a very fast road with no pavements for walking. We had a scout camp nearby while we were there for the weekend and so there was quite a lot of music/noise until about 10pm - but that's just one weekend. I'm sure usually its very quiet! There's a lovely canal close by which was a good walk for the dog.
Site's response
Thank you for your review and your (brief) stay Michael. You're right, it usually is very quiet at Little Acre and the Scout jamboree made quite a difference when it was on - it was quite surreal listening to agadoo, gangnam style and other "scout friendly" songs. Paul.
Lovely site

Great site, only thing I would change is no disabled facilities and I struggled in shower with nothing to hold onto. Toilet block was spotless, modern, personal touches like flowers, jar of cotton balls, mini emery boards, jars of scented oils, free soap, shampoo conditioner in showers. However, there's a 20p charge for 3 mins, can this not be added onto site fees? A new shower block I am told has been granted planning permission, and a laundry room would make this 5 out of 5 for me. The owners are amazing, always on the go keeping it well attended to and attention to detail is great. With pitches that are uneven, they have supplied levelling ramps or large flat stones to assist with levelling - a great touch.
Site's response
When we get the new shower, loo and laundry block with accessible facilities, please come back again and hopefully we'll get that 5* from you, Margaret. When the showers were free, we got multiple instances of people repeatedly pressing the "free shower" button that either a) exhausted the entire hot water tank which meant that no one else could have a shower until it was reheated or b) emptied the 47kg propane gas cylinder that meant we couldn't offer showers until we could get another cylinder delivered. Since reintroducing the 20p for 3 min charge, we've never run out of hot water or gas! Plus, we now offer complimentary high quality shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, which we didn't do before.

We were made very welcome by the owner from the very 1st minute we arrived until the time we left. The site is very clean and tidy. Shower blocks are great & clean with shampoo, body wash and conditioner provided that is situated within the shower cubicle. Its great for walking with easy access to the canal tow path. There is a local pub just up the road that is affordable. I would recommend this site. We'll definitely be coming back.

Only a stay over but we were impressed and will definitely return. Clean, friendly, so well kept and facilities spot on. Thanks!!

Thank you for the lovely review, Steve, and recommendation on Campsites.co.uk. We have a lot of people using the site as a one night stopover - the combination of being 2 mins from junction 36 on the M6, having a pub 200 yards away and the Lancaster Canal opposite our main entrance works very for travellers.

Had to book 2 single nights because of pitch availability. Greeted by Paul on arrival, who managed to juggle bookings and gave us a pitch that we didn't need to move. Toilets, showers and site all well looked after, well presented and spotless. Paul is full of local info and very obliging. We would definitely return.
