Liked: Location location location! About ten minutes drive from Tebay. Nice quiet surroundings, beautiful farmland and scenery. Excellent hosts, really helpful, genuinely nice people! There are male and female showers, even though pitchup doesn’t list them. Two camping fields to choose from, which are both level. There’s a couple of honesty shops, and a really handy kitchen and dining area, which has a microwave, kettle, fridge and washing machine. We travelled with a baby and an eight year old, and we had no issues. There are lots of goats, if you’re interested. The owner even sold bacon sandwiches one morning. We would love to return!
Disliked: It is dark at night, and a good torch is essential. Not really a negative, but do remember to pack one! No wifi, but you do get a good 4g signal. Pitchup also states that campfires are disallowed, which isn’t true. Most campers had campfires, so don’t forget yours.

Liked: Nice warm shower & clean toilet block; decent basic kitchen facilities & inside area to relax; small amount of refreshments available with honesty box; stunning views; friendly hosts; walking distance to three pubs; cooked breakfast available in the morning
Disliked: Finding a flat pitch may have been hard were it any busier - not much that can be done in the hills
