Perfect! Recommends site
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 Everything about this place was spot on! The ground and grass are very well maintained making it perfect for pitching.
The cleanliness of all the facilities was outstanding, better than a lot of hotels, will definitely be going there again !

Super stay Recommends site
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 Just home from a cracking 3 night stay at Little Acre campsite.
Paul was nothing but helpful and very friendly. The site is spacious and never overcrowded. The facilities are the best I have ever seen on a campsite.
The whole family (6 adults 2 dogs) have had a brilliant break away - we will definitely be back 😊

Hi Christine
Thank you for choosing Little Acre and leaving such a lovely review of your time with us. We've made a deliberate decision to not overfill the tent field which means that there is always plenty of space for people and the grass stays nice and soft for camping on.

Excellent first time visit Recommends site
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 Had excellent time at Little Acre camping and were blessed with great weather.
The site is excellent along with lovely toilet and shower block although if site busy there are only 2 showers and 3 toilets at the camping side of the site although can use facilities at caravan park area.
The owner was so helpful and friendly and luckily we were able to book an extra night onto our stay. He justifiably takes great pride in his site and this is obvious to see.
The Lancaster canal is just beside the site and is a very pleasant walk. There is a hotel across the road for a drink or meal and bus stop is also there. It's a beautiful part of the country and would have no hesitation in going back.

Hi Neil
Thank you for staying with us recently and enjoying yourselves so much that you extended your stay & also for sorting out lovely weather for everyone!
We have 2 facility blocks onsite that are available for everyone onsite to use, which really comes into its own when we are full (like we were during your stay.
We'd love to host you again when your back in this part of the world.

Great site! Recommends site
Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 What a lovely site! We were greeted by the owner upon arrival and picked which pitch we wanted. Paul was extremely friendly and helpful, there was a couple of glitches (none of which was Paul's fault!) and he immediately sorted anything we mentioned.
The site is in a great location, we walked down the canal to Holme for lunch, and there's so much to explore within the Lakes. The facilities were immaculate! There's a perfectly furnished toilet / shower room, laundry room and washing up facilities. The site is dog friendly, clean and very well maintained.
The ice cream man even paid a visit! We also ate at The Crooklands Hotel across the road and the food there was incredible.

Peace and quiet and very clean and well kept Recommends site
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 This has been our 3rd year in a row where we have come to this campsite. Every time we see Paul, he is very welcoming and friendly and accommodating. He makes sure that the campsite has plenty of space for everyone, and that it is not packed out like sardines, and that really helps and enables everyone to relax and chill.
As always, the facilities are really well kept and clean/tidy. The complimentary shampoo, conditioner and body wash is a nice touch to excellent facilities too.
We find that this campsite is ideal location for accessing the M6 if you want to go further north into the North Lakes, and the A590 for most of the South Lakes and anything in-between!
One of the best things from this campsite, is the Crooklands pub across the road, we are never disappointed with the meals they serve there, always generous portions and so delicious!
Thanks again Paul for having us, we hope to come back soon.

Very good campsite Recommends site
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2025 Campsite we found to be very well kept. Modern shower and toilet facilities stocked with shower goodies which could be helpful.
Water on each pitch was fab, don't have to walk round for water. Good size pitches. Will definitely recommend and pay further visits.

Cracking little site Recommends site
Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 From pulling up and checking in welcomed with a friendly smile and warm welcome.
The couple that run it are extremely friendly and welcoming along worth being informative about where everything is on site and off. Toilet and shower block on the tent field (didn't use the other one) was extremely nice and clean.
Would 100% be back here again.

Happy Recommends site
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 Lovely place and very well cared for, washing facilities are brilliant.
Grass is short and ideal for tent. Main road nearby is noisy but you can get used to that. M6 is ideally close for great access. I can't fault the campsite at all and Paul, the owner, was very polite and helpful.

Excellent site for all Recommends site
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2025 We had a fantastic time at Little Acre.
This was our first time camping just the 2 of us and it was in a great spot, lovely weather and very nice facilities. The staff are very friendly and informative.
We went for drinks and food in Kirkby Lonsdale and were able to get the bus and also use Uber to get back from the Plough, which was also very nice. The only downside to our visit was that we had to go home after 2 nights!
We definitely hope to return to Little Acre at some point.

A fantastic site near the Lake District Recommends site
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 A perfect campsite for our stay in the Lake District!
Really close and easy access to the villages and towns of the Lake District. Immaculate facilities that we were extremely clean and very much a luxury for camping. Paul was really friendly and helpful, and love to give our wonderful dog Pip a fuss.
The pub over the road had lovely food and was also dog friendly in the bar area. Make sure to book in advance for food! We will definitely be back!

Hi Jessica
Thank you so much for the lovely review of your recent stay with us and I'm glad that your break with us worked out so well.

p.s. being a dog lover and owning a dog friendly campsite means that I get to make a fuss of lots of dogs each day - job satisfaction!
Great spot Recommends site
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Great place to stay. Not overcrowded when full. Host was lovely. Good spot to explore. Pub over the road food not so good which was a shame.
Definitely come again.

Hello Mark
Thank you for staying with us and for writing such a lovely review. During your stay were were full - but choose not to overfill our tentfield so that everyone has space to enjoy.

Excellent! Recommends site
Medium Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 We stayed here for 3 nights and can honestly not recommend this site highly enough.
Spotlessly clean, perfect pitch and the shower block and toilet facilities are the best I've ever seen on a camping site.
Paul and Sarah, the owners, are super friendly and excellent hosts.
Ideally situated 1 minute walk to the local pub who serve fabulous food, situated next to the Lancaster canal for beautiful walks, 15 min drive to Kendal one way, Kirkby Lonsdale the other and approx 30 min to Lake Windermere.

Excellent site Recommends site
Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Excellent site with the best toilet/shower facilities we have come across.
The field consists of top grade grass and the owner of the site allows each pitch to rejuvenate before allowing someone to pitch again meaning no muddy pitches. The owners are really nice and go above and beyond to look after and welcome their clients. The location is perfect for exploring the Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and even Blackpool and Liverpool all being within an hour/hour and a half.
You do need to pay 20p for a 3min shower but based on the facilities that is no problem and in fact was a bit of fun to see if everyone in our group could achieve it using 1x20p (which we all did). Thanks for a great stay.

Little gem Recommends site
Large Tent - Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 So glad we found this little gem of a site. Ideal location to set base for a few days visiting places close by.
We managed Carnforth, Kendal, Bowness on Windermere, Ambleside, Morecombe and Lancaster. Lovely welcome by Paul and although the site was full over the weekend. there was no noise. The facilities were excellent.
We will certainly visit the site again without a doubt. Thank you.
