This is our third visit this year. Mick and his staff have been very helpful. They always have a smile on their face. They helped with awning and gas issues. The place is perfect for peace and quiet. Our two dogs love it with lots of walks and either the stream or river to swim in. The farm shop and pub are perfectly placed and are in walking distance. Blocks are spotless. I don't understand the negative reviews. The tight access is no different to sights in Devon and Cornwall. Dog walks are dog walks they are all different. We have arranged to return in September

Ideal stopover

We were only stopping for a night as we headed south and this site was ideally situated close to the motorway. The staff were lovely and very helpful and the facilities were well looked after and clean. Was nice to be able to walk up the river beside the site and stretch our legs in peace and quiet. Interesting the site is situated where there was a gunpowder mill once, remains of which are still on view. Thank you to everyone.

Tranquil stay

This is a lovely peaceful site, surrounded by trees, a river and lots of varied wildlife. Staff very friendly and helpful. Great walks from the site or just a short drive away and you can do a coastal walk from Arnside to Silverdale, fantastic scenery and plenty to see and do. Ideal for families who like to explore nature and local history.

Can't understand some of the negative reviews

This is a great site with superb, friendly and helpful staff. I can't understand the people who place negative reviews with comments about the trees, lack of a children's playground and overgrown areas. The description of the site on the homepage is just what it is - a quiet and relaxing place situated in woodland and woodland has trees. We love it and are going to visit again in August for the fourth time this season. Each time we've been all the visitors I've spoken to have had nothing but praise. There are lots of attractions to visit in the area if you make the effort, many of which are very family orientated. All I can say to the complainers is that if you want excitement and facilities for the kids, go to Blackpool - we'll come back here to relax and enjoy the company of the majority of visitors instead.

Just a great site

First of all, we are total newbies, and told the site manager on arrival. He couldn’t have been more helpful, and gave us a map on which he’d marked available pitches that he thought we’d like. We followed his suggestion and found an ideal spot. The facilities are well maintained and spotless. Some negative reviews have mentioned traffic speeding on the roads. We saw none, and speed humps make it unlikely. Bear in mind, it’s the Lake District in the North West - so it’s likely to rain. It’s based in a forest so lots of private spots to pitch up and fascinating history about old works on the site - the ruins still visible. The approach road is slightly narrow, but there are plenty of passing bays, and the potholes mentioned elsewhere were minimal to be honest. The only issue for some people is queuing for access at 1.00 p.m. So if you don’t want to queue - arrive mid afternoon like we did. We will be back!

Expected better, site overgrown, daylight to many pitches affected. Dog Walk great but again path accessing overgrown. Not good for kids no play area weeds-nettles ,etc hazard for young ones. Steep roads within site causing issues with to walking impaired persons. Really disappointed looked forward to this visit but will certainly not be back

Staff

Both sets of assistants were brilliant. Always helpful and cheerful. Always gave you a wave and a smile of which when you are on holiday is all that you want. However the manager was abrupt. Maybe having a bad day. The only down side is that most of the pitches are under trees and it can be noisy when there is heavy rain. We would go back again.

Not great in the rain

We are new to caravanning and seem to learn something new on every trip. The lesson here was “don’t park your caravan under a tree in the rain” It rained much of the week and we felt quite depressed as there was no view, just stuck in the caravan in the rain in the forest under a tree that dripped, dripped, dripped. When it wasn’t dripping water it gave us leaves, seeds of some sort and the regular small branch. I didn’t sleep for a week lol. On the converse side, if it had have been sunny, it would have been nice to have the tree shade us! Being fair, the staff were amazing, the walks nearby brilliant and the toilet block really good. From memory, even the internet signal was good. We didn’t enjoy the Lake District too much as we felt hemmed in most of the time. The towns were mobbed and we often gave up trying to find a parking space. We visited the Keswick site and if we ever return to the Lakes, we will stop there us it was a lovely site and an easy walk into town.

Lovely site but not for us

As another reviewer stated the approach road is very narrow which has a few large pot holes and no passing places. Local fishermen park their cars on the road making it more difficult to navigate. We did meet a large motorhome coming the opposite way and reversing was a nightmare. The site itself is set in the middle of a wood with some very steep hills and fairly narrow roads. Good choice of pitches but quite a few are fairly small compared to other sites. Quite dark at night due to the trees and on the way back from the toilet I managed to get totally lost. Facilities were top notch and the wardens were helpful and friendly. But we didn't really enjoy the site. Stayed at Troutbeck club site only 24 miles away and found it far better
