Great location but........
Halforth Farm
The site is well located for walks and visits to Arnside, Heron Water mill (which is well worth a visit) The location of the electric points however seem to cause confusion and we had to stop a campervan parking less than 2 metres from our front door rather than on a designated pitch.
This is a working farm, which we are used to, but there is quite a lot of noise here. Milk tankers arrive around midnight and leave the engines running for around 20 to 30 minutes whilst milk is collected. There's also tractor noise early morning and dogs barking. So we felt a bit sleep deprived.
Unfortunately a farm dog is allowed to roam freely and used our pitch as a toilet. I had to pick up horrible dog poo on our pitch on several occasions to prevent us walking in it and it just peed on the a frame and aqua roll. We are dog lovers but felt this shouldn't be allowed to happen. The rubbish and toilet disposal is near main gate. Don't expect a chemical disposal. You get a hole in the ground and access to a septic tank via a lever which isn't too pleasant. At £15 a night it's good value but we probably won't return in a hurry.
Lovely little place to stay
Halforth Farm
Lovely little site, excellent surroundings and very quiet. It is a working farm but caused us no issues at all. Lots of walks around you and very friendly owners.
We will absolutely go back Many thanks
Very friendly but..
Halforth Farm
Very pleasant owners. The larger paddock has only 2 power posts so if these are in use then the remaining space where power is available is very cramped.
Despite entry in the app and on line this site does NOT have laundry facilities; the write up needs to be changed

Nice!
Halforth Farm
Margaret & family are really good, friendly, helpful hosts.
The site is next to the family's working farm & with that goes the sounds & smells of the countryside .... cow's mooing, hen's clucking & tractors doing their thing ....including helping you if/when you get a little stuck!
Access to water/loo cleaning is as easy as it should be.
The site is spread over two large paddocks ... so spread out, no need to crowd your neighbour!
We just started motorhoming in March 2019 & have been back 3 times with friends n family already.
We used to live & work nearby & know the area well - there's more to this place than the guide book indicates -
- Leighton Moss RSPB is within cycling distance
- We off road mtb riders can find lots of trails nearby (eg Whitbarrow scar)
- Cycle the lanes/bridleways to Grange/Cartmel/Lythe Valley or Arnside
- walk the marsh road to Dallam Park/Beetham/Fairy Steps & beyond
- sea fishing at Arnside peer
- river/game fishing ... contact Kendal Anglers
- the "old bluebell"/Heversham hotel is a great beer n food pub.
& there's so much more to do too ....
Thanks Margaret, see you soon!

Great site, very friendly definitely come back.
Halforth Farm
Great site with stunning views and owners are very welcoming, happy to suggest walks around the area and things to do, working farm but no issue with dogs or noise at night. Very peaceful and will be returning to site in the future years. Plenty of space for kids without annoying other caravanners. Excellent access to Kendal and the southern lakes and great butchers in Milnthorpe as well.
