A great couple of days at Meathop Fell

This visit was just for a couple of days whilst on our way to Scotland. The welcome as at all club sites was friendly and pleasant. Our pitch was just a few yards from the amenity block, which was very clean and tidy and in good condition. The views from the site are great. The Lakeland mountains in one direction and the Pennines in the other with one of the Morecambe Bay inlets at Arnside in the foreground. The site is a great base for exploring the southern lakes and north Lancashire. We'll have to make a return visit to the site, because there's so much to see. Highly recommended. Wifi connection mediocre. RJP

Quiet week!

We stayed here for 4 nights and would definitely return. The welcome was pleasant, friendly and efficient. The site is very peaceful and is in a great location which is easy to find. As we do all our ablutions on board we didn't check out the facilities so can't comment on them. If, like me, you're not the greatest at reversing you may find some of the pitches a bit tight to back into so get some practice in.

A Great Experience

We stayed at Meathop Fell for two nights. It is a beautiful site and very well maintained. The facilities were excellent and the toilet block was spotless. The Warden was very helpful and made it easy for us as first time users of a Caravan Club site. Our visit was short as we went there to celebrate the birthday of an aged aunt in Grange Over Sands. Having experienced the site however we would very much like to return in the summer as it is a great location to visit the Southern Lake District. Congratulations and thanks to Meath Fell Warden for making it such a great experience.

Away from it all!

This is a lovely site; a great location for the Lake District with beautiful views from the top pitches The warden was friendly and the facilities excellent. The Woodlands Hotel nearby serves lovely food & the bar is comfortable for a quiet drink (dogs welcome in the bar). There are lots of good places round about for a day out. We would recommend the Motor Museum which is very nostalgic if you were born in the fifties or sixties ( dogs allowed in here too). The weather was pretty awful when we were there, rain, gales & even snow but we had a great time and will definitely visit again.

lovely site

Visited last week for a few days. pleasant welcome from the warden ( still having trouble with the computer!). Lovely site, very tidy. It's a few years since we last visited Meathop Fell, and again it didn't disappoint. Enjoyed the walk to Grange and along the little lanes from the site.

Second-time visitors

One week later and we did return. We enjoyed our stay just as much as the first time. Coming again in a fortnight and bringing my younger daughter. Can't wait. I can throughly recommend the site to anyone.

Midweek in February

We had a 2 night stay in the last week of February. We've visited before in the low season and found it very quiet once more. We arrived just after noon to find the reception closed with instructions to find a pitch and book in the next day. The pitches are well spaced and the toilet block spotless and cosy. The next day I checked in to reception and met the friendly wardens. Computer problems had led to the closure while they visited a neighbouring CC site to upload the week's data. A great walk into Grange in the winter sunshine, about 3 miles each way. Never visited when the site has been busy so can't comment on that,but out of season it is a peaceful haven and less than 60 miles from home

First timers anywhere!

This was our first time staying on any site anywhere, since we had only bought our motorhome just before Christmas. Meathop was our first choice, being the closest to home and we were staying for only one night, in February, just to try everything out. Unfortunately, us novices arrived shortly after the site's computer system had gone down and we were largely left to our own devices. We were recommended to chose an upper, more level site, but had no problems setting up. The toilet and shower facilities were spacious and very clean and the site pleasant and very quiet. Next morning the staff were apologetic about our arrival experience and very helpful with our checkout. We enjoyed the two days so much that we booked the same again for the following week when we got home. We want to explore more.

excellent site

Our first time to Meathop staying in February. The toilet and shower facilities were spacious and very clean, which was so appreciated. The site is partitioned off into areas that allow the play ground to be away from half the site, so no noise!! Reception sells immediate-need basics such as milk and bread etc., also wonderful Cumberland sausages, which are absolutely delicious. We will be back in late March, when most of the local tourist attractions are open by then. But, thank you Meathop staff for a very easy stay.

Great Feb Half Term break

Great site for kids (but those who want quieter pitches can find them away from the play area). Usual high quality CC facilities - toilets and showers excellent and very warm on the cold crisp evenings and nights. Just one thing - why need for toilet/shower access keys? (frustrating if forgotten etc., and not sure if really needed). Local area fantastic, and it has all you need. The prom is a must with great play area and activities for kids. Had great weather which made the views even better. One thing to watch - the approach to the site includes a steep sharp incline which has to be taken carefully to avoid the back end catching. And spoke to other caravanner whose Van struggled up and needed assistance. Other than that, great site and will go back without hesitation.
