Peaceful

We are just back from spending the bank holiday weekend at this site. I was a bit hesitant in booking a bank holiday away as we like to go when places are quiet, but thought we would try here, well lets just say that this site is now in my top three. even though the site was full, it was so peaceful and quiet.  Yes, due to the trees there are shaded areas around the site, but I would say that most of the pitches got some sun at some point.  The reason we liked this site so much is because of the walks in the area, but especially the dog walks and dog paddock. There are lovely walks through the woods and round the ponds I think if you have children that like exploring and the outdoors this site would be great. We shall definitely be going back for either long weekend or as a stop over point.

Needs a little work

Having again used this site as a stopover to & from Scotland it is an excellent site that needs more publicity! Having also stayed here for a week it has good walking opportunities, great dog facilities with the new 2016 enclosed dog run ideal to let the dogs off steam & off lead. Carlisle is so close as is the M6 though the feed road is a little bumpy!! Yes it has no toilet block nor wifi but it ticks all the other boxes. Major down side is the lack of wardens! To get help from the wardens (which will greatly improve your stay) you have to arrive before 13:30 or between 5 & 6. This is NOT GOOD ENOUGH from the caravan club. I cannot see why arrivals here are so badly treated as being forced to find their own pitch & then return to reception to pay!! It would be very easy to stay free!!

Too much shade for us

Englethwaite is a well cared for no facilities site. We perhaps didn't have the best experience as when we arrived all the sunnier pitches were either occupied, seasonal pitches or serviced pitches. The site has an abundance of trees so we found the sun, and views elusive. TV signal was also poor for us with as we have no directional aerial. The motorhome point is not good, taking on water required blocking the enterance to the pitches and we didn't use the MH waste as it was on the wrong side for us and would have required reversing up to it. Doubtless the CC will eventually refurbish all MH points and make them easier to use. Not much for us to attract us back I'm afraid.

Peaceful

Stayed just the one night on our way to Scotland. Really loved it and would have stayed longer. It’s very quiet and peaceful, well looked after and the sort of simple site we like. The only downer is that lengthy run down the rather bumpy road from Cumwinton. We’ll probably stay over again next time were heading North.

Pure Bliss

What a lovely tranquil site.  It didn't matter a jot that it had no toilet block, everything else made up for it.  As a keen bird watcher, we saw greater spotted woodpeckers and nut hatches along with all the other common garden birds.  We enjoyed it there so much that we stayed an extra night.  A must visit is the Border Garden Centre.  Fantastic food shop as well as crafts and restaurant.  Another gem is the Lanercost Tea Rooms.  Will definitely visit again.

What a Gem

This site is absolutely amazing, stunning location. must be the quietest site i have ever been to and the surrounding area is just fantastic. I never moved my car all weekend. The pitch sizes are brilliant, big level pitches. Some good history to Englethwaite hall as well. Lovely walk to Cotehill and the pub there, which again was brilliant, fab food and very friendly owners. I loved this site please don't go so i can revisit without a problem....

Beautiful site..

I stayed on this site on the way to Isle of Arran and so impressed I returned on my journey down. A slightly bumpy road to get to it but it was stated in the directions. A really peaceful, relaxing place, no traffic noise although the resident woodpecker was hard at work!! There is a lovely dogwalk on site and a new enclosure for exercising dogs has recently been added with plenty of dog waste bins provided. No Loos or showers or children play areas so probably not enough there for families.... saying that it had everything that ticked my list... a gem of a site.

Wonderful

This was a last minute booking while en route back from Scotland and what a wonderful surprise. Wonderfully kept, quiet, lovely warden (ess) and stunning location. No toilets or shower but what the heck, we have our own. Nice dog walk at the back of the site with the chance to see red squirrels. We will be back.
