Probably the best site we have been on!

We have been Caravaners for decades but have had a decade off caravaning until we bought a small folding Gobur caravan last July. Since then we have been to a few CL's which have all been good but visiting our son and family 300 miles away we decided to try a full CAMC site and chose Meathop Fell. We arrived at about 4pm and although the access roads were very narrow we had no problems gtting there. Good signing to a parking arrivals reserved spot. Friendly welcome and we had a map to explain the layout. We were invited to tour the site by car but chose to do it on foot and selected a hardstanding with awning pitch which was well laid out and very tidy indeed. Toilets and showers were some of the best we have ever seen for layout and cleanliness. It was May and we had wonderful weather as well for the week we were there. Bins were emptied daily. Grass was cut more often than my home lawn and looked a lot better as well. No railways, roads or other sources of unwanted noise either. Next time we visit our son and family in Cumbria I don't think we will try to look at another site, I don't think we could find a better one (but don't tell anyone!!!!).

Overnight Stay

An obviously kid friendly site - with lots of children on their bikes ( nice to see them enjoying themselves). A lovely dog enclosed run. Good shower and clean toilet facilities would stay again.

Lovely peaceful site

Fantastic site in a lovely peaceful place. Facilities are excellent, very clean and lots of showers and private cubicles. The welcome was warm and friendly, and really helpful. Close by the Woodlands Hotel serves good food and there is a great Pizza Van onsite at weekends. We are new to Campervans and still have a lot to learn - we were made to feel very welcome. I would highly recommend the site.

Nice clean, tidy, quiet site.

I had a very enjoyable 2 night stay in January 2024. The site is spacious, clean, tidy and quiet. I was very lucky with dry, sunny (ish) weather so did a couple of nice walks to Meathop Moss, and Grange over Sands. A bit remote though if you don't like walking too far. My pitch was flat and spacious with plenty of manoeuvring room. Nice view too. Fresh water and waste facilities were very close so no complaints. I did notice some of the pitches were on quite a slope though. Will be visiting again.

A cosy retreat

This was our first time at a clubsite and was very impressed with how clean and tidy it was. As we came out of season, it was nice and peaceful too. We had fantastic cold dry weather, stunning views from our caravan pitch. Very scenic. The showers and toilets were very clean and nice hot showers. Really liked the dog walking areas and the information hub. Lots of choices to visit, although not all open at this time of year. Will definitely come here again and will come when it's warmer and bring our bikes.

Avoiding Storm Babette

We were supposed to be going to Hebden Bridge and had only booked 7 days earlier. Then news of Storm Babette approaching concerned us enough to consider cancelling but online cancellation would have lost us our deposit and we didn't think it was fair due to only booking a week earlier. The 21 day cancellation policy doesn't alter for last minute bookings which is a flaw I think. Having said that, I rang CAMC for options as Hebden Bridge was under amber weather alert. I didn't want to take any risks but didn't want to lose my deposit either. We choose Meathop Fell (30 mins from home) as we weren't under any weather warning. We had to pay more as Meathop is a more expensive site but had a lovely weekend, warmly welcomed by the wardens and no wind or rain to speak of. Top notch facilities, pizza and burger nights on site, fabulous motorhome service point and friendly approachable wardens.

Lovely site and peaceful night

We had a change of plan and area and swapped to this site last minute and we had a lovely stay at Meathop Fell. There’s a pub/restaurant about 10 minutes walk away which did nice food. There are incredible views from some parts of the site across the bay and some wonderful hills and mountains. The site we felt was relaxing, had a couple of dog exercise areas and the pitches were nicely spaced. We really enjoyed our stay, David, Rachel & Roxy.

Great again

Enjoyed our stay at Meathop Fell again! Facilities immaculate, site very tidy. So much to see within a few miles, in this quieter part of Cumberland.

Nice but very very unwelcoming

Arrived just after 12 noon instead of the 1pm required. Was met by an angry staff member (with a dog) who told us to basically to go away but said we could come back at 12:30. I did apologise and asked if we could stand and wait due to the 8 metre size of our motorhome. Unfortunately not , was told to go and wait down the lane near the bus stop! So we did for the required 20 minutes and returned. Site was nowhere near full-totally unnecessary! When I did check in, I made nothing of it. When I asked for information for our stay, the same staff member pointed to something outside and said I would find some there .. Again, unfriendly and unnecessary. The site was nice but I will not be returning to this one.
