Lovely site
Oct 2023 Lovely, small site. Toilets and showers absolutely lovely. Very well maintained grounds. Owners very friendly and knowledgeable. Slight road noise but didn't keep us awake. Would definitely go back. Hotel restaurant across the road reasonably priced. Food lovely. Bus stop just outside on main road.

Hi Gillian, thank you for staying with us at Little Acre and recommending us on Campsites.co.uk.
It would be lovely to host you in the future again. Paul.
Fabulous and friendly
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Oct 2023 Communication prior to the stay was great. During the stay when I had a question the response was extremely quick and helpful.
The shower block we used was super clean and very warm. The only criticism was the 20p per 3 minute shower. It seems a bit strange in addition to the cost for the pitch.
The site is situated on the 567 bus route from Kendal to Kirkby Lonsdale and we were able to visit both places. The local pub/restaurant was a two-minute walk away and was worth a visit (book in advance). The canal towpath is next to the site and provided a lovely and easy walk.
We would return and enjoyed our stay.

Thank you for staying with us and we'd love to host you again, Carole.
The showers have been 20p for 3 mins for an awful long time, but for a while, the showers became free. Sadly, we had multiple instances of people repeatedly pushing the hot water button until either a) the hot water ran out or b) (even worse) the 47kg gas cylinder was emptied. With a) the showers were unusable for 45 mins until the hot water was replenished, with b) the showers weren't usable until the following day when the expensive gas cylinder could be replenished - both scenarios were incredibly annoying for customers and me alike!
When we reintroduced the 20p for 3 mins, we also added complimentary shower gel, shampoo, conditioner, heated and illuminated mirrors and hairdryers - plus, the showers have never run out of hot water again!

Fantastic stay
Twin Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Oct 2023 Fantastic little site with great facilities and very friendly and helpful owners.
The new shower block is one of the nicest facilities I have encountered on a campsite.

Fantastic site
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Campervan Pitch Oct 2023 Fantastic campsite. We arrived late which wasn’t a problem with owners. Best toilets and showers ever - modern and exceptionally clean. Very clean and tidy site. Would definitely stay again and recommend.

Easy access from motorway
Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Oct 2023 Stayed for 3 nights. Fairly quiet site with a brand new shower block at one end and a rather old one at the other, but nice and warm.
Stayed on pitch 13 but found it very tight on space and was next to 2 large vans and towing vehicles who were together. They had several visitors over the weekend with various people staying over, so felt that there was no security at all.
Would have preferred to be on the far field which was quieter.

Thank you for staying with us at Little Acre and recommending us on Campsites.co.uk, Brenda.
I'm sorry that you stay wasn't as enjoyable as it could have been and that was down to me taking a booking for 2 x caravans on pitches that I normally put campervans/motorhomes on. If there had been campervans/motorhomes on those pitches, pitch #13 would have felt as "open" as all other pitches do and your stay with us would have felt different.
I hope that you do come back and stay with me on another occasion and that I can "make things right" for you. Paul.
Weekend stay little acre

So good
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Small Pitch Oct 2023 So good. We booked before heading home from our holiday. It's a small site with amazing wash facilities. Make sure you stock up on 20p's for the shower. It's 3 minutes of pure bliss. There is a restaurant within walking distance called The Crooklands.
Great pitches with amazing facilities. Toilet block looks new.
Perfect for a stop just off the M6 (junction 36). Fuel nearby that has a well stocked shop.
Great for an overnighter if going north or south.
Restaurant within walking distance of the Crooklands that has a lovely menu and atmosphere. You need to book this ahead of time. We have already booked for our return trip north.

Hi Laura, thank you for staying with us and immediately rebooking - it's really appreciated.
The new shower block is proving to be very popular, the showers even more so. Enjoy your touring around I hope to host you again in the future. Paul.
