Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches May 2023 Alan the host was lovely and helpful. All the basic amenities there like clean shower, toilets and washing up sink. the campsite was open and not crowded. They sold drinks and BBQ food from a caravan at very reasonable prices.
Idyllic campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches May 2023 Idyllic spot, clean facilities, everything you need!
Beautiful site, highly recommend
May 2023 What a truly lovely place: a meadow field with plenty of space between pitches. We camped and enjoyed the far-reaching views from this peaceful, hillside location.
There was a warm welcome from owner Alan and his nice dog, and the chance to buy food for breakfast. I was so glad we did as the local bacon, fresh eggs and croissants were delicious. It's fine to have a campfire, with wood on sale too.
The wash block was clean and comfortable.
The meadow was a delight, with wildflowers - we even spotted a vole scurrying past. Campers use tracks cut through the grass to get the full experience…no hard tarmac here.
The field is enclosed by hedges, with a horse and glamping accommodation to one side.
The site was easily accessed from the motorway and it was an easy drive into Keswick, Carlisle and to the hills, lakes and coast.
Owner Alan went above and beyond for us when we had a spot of car drama (is it even camping without a bit of a story?!). And I'm sure he does the same for anyone needing advice or help. So you're in safe hands. It's easy just to relax and enjoy the calm surroundings.
All in all, this site is amazing value and perfect for a getaway.
Fantastic! Would stay again
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches May 2023 Great small campsite. Very quiet. Great value for money and close to Keswick.
Facilities good, showers hot! Alan was on hand to help.
Excellent, highly recommended!
Camping Pod - Camping Pods with Hot Tubs (Dog Friendly) May 2023 I have absolutely no fault with this place. If you do enjoy the outdoors, you'll know what I mean.
Was a lovely getaway. Allan and Kelsey were amazing. The weather was amazing.
Lovely campsite, great facilities
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches May 2023 Lovely surrounding areas and just a short drive from some classic lakes walks, this campsite was a great find. Although I was sceptical of the shower at first, it was so refreshing and I now want my own! The owner was so kind, very attentive and friendly with all guests - on our first morning, our car had sunk into the mud following some heavy rain and he very kindly towed me out.
Had a great time, fully recommend!!
Excellent stay
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Apr 2023 We are just starting off on the old camping game, and we struck a winner on our first site.
First off, we loved that the campsite is relatively small, population wise. Whilst we were there, there was only another 5 tents pitched up max. This suited us as we were really looking for somewhere quiet.
The facilities were good and clean, and because there wasn’t that many other campers there was no waiting for toilets or shower. There was a toilet and shower block, nice warm water which was welcomed as the weather was a little dull to say the least, and also a caravan to use and has electricity also, as well as a portaloo, so no chance of getting caught short.
The host, Alan, is honestly a great guy. He makes you feel welcome right off the bat, and does so much to make your stay comfortable. We had a small camping stove to cook on however the weather was turning, and we must’ve generally just looked a bit clueless, Alan hooked some gas up to the stove in the caravan and said we could use that if needed. Thankfully we managed our steaks on our little stove but it was a nice touch, genuinely kind.
We enjoyed our stay at Cherry Trees Farm, and will definitely be going there again. For some it may be a little far away from shops etc, but for us we loved it, gorgeous views and a bit of peace and quiet. Can’t beat it! Thank you very much Alan!
Great venue
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Sep 2022 Awesome little place, quiet clean and with a nice view. Facilities were basic but clean, water was hot and we had everything we needed.
If I had to find one criticism it would be the grass was too long and needed a cut, but honestly it was fine, I’m just being picky!
Would stay again and recommend to others!
Excellent value and relaxed
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Sep 2022 This was a great location for us during this trip, as it was only a 1hr 30 drive up to Galloway for the day to hike. We arrived the Friday, hit Scotland during the day on Saturday and had a leisurely drive with a pit stop to canoe in the Peak District on our way home to Manchester!
The owner is friendly and relaxed, the campsite is quite off the beaten track but very tranquil and excellent value for money. The view from the top of the field is gorgeous and there's a basic toilet/shower hut/washing-up sink to suit your needs for a chilled weekend trip.
I'd recommend this spot and will be using this place again, probably more as a base camp or pit stop should we ever want to do Scotland and the Peak District in one weekend again!
Gorgeous break well needed
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Very remote location with good access to many areas of the Lake District.
The site itself is on a field, which was amazing for the kids as they had the entire field to themselves! On our day of arrival, there was a little ice cream truck that came by with the tastiest ice cream I've ever tasted! The views for miles were amazing day and dusk. The facilities weren't top end, but I think the site is in its early stages of set up, but there was hot water and showers which the owner cleaned every day. We left a day early but only because it was set to rain and we have nowhere to dry our tent out.
We will be back again.
Amazing!
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Nice campsite, ideal for all types of groups
Amazing
Aug 2022 Amazing place. Peaceful and stunning views.
Amazing
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Beautiful place, views amazing. The owner of the place was really friendly, we loved his dog.
Would recommend this place, easy to find and nice and quiet. We will back again definitely.
Peaceful
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Peaceful 2 nights away in the countryside, with great views of scenery around you.
Lovely quite campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 This campsite was lovely, spacious and quiet. It was the first time myself and my partner have taken our dog camping (1 year old husky), and this place was perfect for him to have a good run around on a long lead next to our tent while we relaxed and had a few drinks and a bbq! The owner of the land is very helpful and friendly, we spoke with him a few times while we stayed and he was always making sure we were having a good time. This place is perfect if you're looking for something a bit quieter and 'off the beaten track,' yet still within driving distance to villages, walks and popular attractions. As it's not as close to surrounding towns it makes it an amazing place for stargazing! There is a block of clean and basic showers and toilets to use on site, within an easy walking distance from wherever you camp. I would definitely recommend this place and will be returning again!
Great place to stay
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 As close to wild camping as you can get, but with facilities. Great quiet location. Owner went above and beyond to make our stay as comfortable as possible.
Lovely location
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Really great value for money. Lovely spacious field with a choice of where to pitch, not too close to other tents. Friendly service and very welcoming!
The facilities are ample for the amount of visitors staying. Good working showers and toilets, not luxurious but definitely good for a campsite and great for the cost! It was a bit cramped getting changed after a shower and it would be good to have hooks to put clothes and towels on.
Will definitely be back!
Beautiful place
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Very beautiful place to stay and not overcrowded. Lovely owners!
Amazing serene place
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Absolute gem of a place. No crowds and an excellent location. We stayed for 2 nights and from the pitch you can see the Pennines on one side, the Lake District on the other and border of Scotland in the distance.
Lovely location, great showers.
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2022 Secluded and quiet, with great showers. Off the beaten track.
Nice relaxing break
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2022 This was just what we wanted, nice and relaxing and out of the way of everything. Would visit again!
