Wallthwaite is set in farmland with a little brook running down the side of it, it offers stunning views over the Cumbrian hills and although handy for both Penrith and Keswick has a great feeling of seclusion. All pitches are hard standing and although the initial access is a little tricky all units should cope with a little care. The owners of the site are very discreet and leave you to enjoy your break, the night before we left the site got a surprise thick covering of snow. We had snow chains and although got off the site couldn't get the unit up the nearby steep hill. David the owner without hesitation came to our rescue with his tractor pulling us up to the main road, clearly a kind man and we were very grateful. If you want to explore this area there is no better, prettier or friendlier base.
