Lovely surprise.

Ellerbeck Farm and Fishery
Rang 50 minutes ahead to see if site had availability and they did. Photos on this page dont do any justice. The site is well maintained gravel/hardstanding pitches with grass areas. Toilet and hand wash basin spotless. The odd cobweb but nothing to worry about. Bottle of spray disinfectant and hand paper towels provided. Needed to take a toilet roll with you but for the price p/n whats a loo roll. The site has chemical waste point, fresh water tap, waste facilities which accommodated recycling. Each pitch had ehu. Lovely dog walk available and the adjacent fishing lakes looked good. Owners friendly throughout. We had a lovely obe night stay. So peaceful. Thank you. Highly recommend.

A wonderful but basic CL

Ellerbeck Farm and Fishery
We visited in March 2024 in a motorhome. A very quiet CL tucked away on its own field behind a small fishery. We were lucky to have it to ourselves for most of a week's stay, but it may get crowded if all pitches were occupied, as the field is quite small. There are great walks to be had straight from the CL through what was once minor quarry workings, with a delightful stream running through, and pleasant fields beyond. We enjoyed our daily walk exploring the area, and so did our dog. Facilities are basic, but were sufficient for our needs, as we always use our one toilet and shower. Disposal facilities were good. The owner is a really friendly chap who is a mine of information on the area. The site is great for exploring the Solway coast and thew northern lakes. All in all we really enjoyed our stay and can recommend this CL to all those with similar requirements to us. We shall definitely revisit when we need a base in this area.

Peaceful Week in May

Ellerbeck Farm and Fishery
This is a very tranquil site set down a shortish track, there's a few shallow holes so drive slowly. All hard standing and well spaced out with good drainage. Surrounded by pine and deciduous trees, with the bonus of a nice walk for the doggets. Added bonus if you spot a red squirrel! There is an on site shower and toilet, perfectly functional and clean but tbh really needs upgrading. all in all thoroughly recommend.

A Hidden Treasure

Ellerbeck Farm and Fishery
A secluded and peaceful site set in a clearing of woodland and overlooking the fishing lake. This site is surrounded by the breath taking landscape of Cumbria's hills and open fields. Despite its quite location, it is only 2 miles from the center of Cockermouth. All pitches have hard standing with plenty of of space between each pitch and the owners were very welcoming and friendly. I will without doubt be making frequent visits to this site.

Beautiful tranquil site set in the most beautiful surroundings.

Ellerbeck Farm and Fishery
Absolutely beautiful couldn’t wish for a nicer quieter place. Owner very friendly & helpful & even brought us fresh farm eggs for our first breakfast. Shower & toilet very clean. For a CL site very good facilities. All the bins are set out for recycling & emptied daily, couldn’t fault it. Beautiful walks in the woodlands & around the lake & situated on the outskirts of the lovely village of Brigham. Ideally located site for visiting the Lake District & the coastal areas. Charges £12 per night for our Motorhome, well worth it. Will definitely return. Thank you to the owners for our lovely stay. See you again soon👍
