About the site


Nestled on the edge of the Lake District National Park, this family and dog friendly site enjoys stunning views over the Solway Firth to Scotland beyond as well as the North Lakeland fells to the west and the Pennines to the east. There are just ten grass pitches available, without electric hook up. These each take a maximum of six people and are suitable for tents up to a maximum length of 9m. Additionally, there are two furnished pods for up to two people, each complete with a double bed, small dining table, chest of drawers, kettle, tea/coffee making facilities, cool box, fire pit and an outdoor camp stove. Outside you'll also have plenty of space to stretch out as well as outdoor seating, perfect for al fresco dining. To top it off, you'll even have your own hot tub! Sit back and relax onsite or explore the nearby area, the stunning Aira Force Waterfall is just a 30 minute drive away. The market towns of Penrith and Wigton are both approximately ten miles away and there is also easy access to Junction 41 of the M6. Campfires are allowed provided they are built in raised fire pits. Up to two dogs welcome per pitch.

Cherry Trees Farm is open from 27/03 to 30/09. Pitches from £90/night for 2 people.

Things to do on site and in the Wigton area

A 30 minute drive will take you to both Keswick and Derwentwater, as well as Ullswater in the heart of the Lake District National Park, lovely days out for the whole family.

If you're looking for stunning mountain walks then the Northern fell range is much closer, much quieter and well worth exploring. Don't forget to pack your camera as the views at the top are stunning.
