Small motorhome site with uninterrupted views over the Duddon Estuary
A 15-minute drive from Black Combe; 35 minutes from Coniston Water
A mile from Millom's town centre, shops and railway station

Sitting on the shores of the pretty Duddon Estuary, Estuary View Escapes is a simple but scenic motorhome site that's low in frills but big on views. Located at the old shipping quay known as Millom Pier and surrounded by Cumbrian countryside, the site has far-ranging vistas over ever-changing sands and tides, while turning around opens up views over the hills and fells of the southern Lake District. This laidback site has just a small number of hardstanding pitches for touring vehicles and welcomes couples, families and well-behaved dogs. Barbecues are allowed here, and there are picnic tables down near the water's edge where you can tuck into a scenic meal in the evening. There are few facilities at this small-scale space, but there is a handy chemical disposal point for guests to use. A mile away from site, Millom town centre has a good range of restaurants, food shops, takeaways and bars. Handily, there's also a railway station if you fancy exploring this part of the Cumbrian coastline by train. The nearest pub, The Devonshire, can be reached from base in about 10 to 15 minutes on foot.

Non-electric gravel motorhome pitch

Liked: What we liked!? The cheery welcome from Louise, despite it being late afternoon on New Year's Day. The peaceful tranquility of the location, though within walking reach of the host town Millom for supplies.The access to seemingly endless beach and shoreline walks with wildlife viewing. The base to launch from, to access the South Lakeland Fells - we were fortunate to receive a beautiful day on the 2nd, which allowed tremendous views over the Dutton Estuary and of the stunning fell ranges. The cleanliness of the site and provided amenities, plus the unquestioned helpfulness of Lea, who helped start our vehicle - many thanks

Disliked: Nothing to dislike

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Perfect thanks

Local attractions

The surrounding area has lots to keep visitors to this part of the world entertained, from peaceful pursuits like walking and birdwatching to more energetic activities like sailing, paddling and other watersports. Starting locally, you might like to visit Millom's beach, sea wall and interesting lighthouse, all of which are about a mile away from base – and if you like fishing, you can also cast your line straight from the quay. For a change of scene, there's another pleasant beach at Silecroft (15 minutes' drive). Drive for a quarter of an hour inland and you'll reach the Black Combe trailhead, the start of a two-hour walk up one of Cumbria's most impressive mountains. On a sunny day, you can take in 360-degree views from the summit, with vistas that can stretch all the way to the Isle of Man and the Mull of Galloway over the water in Scotland. Estuary View Escapes is well within reach of other Lakeland favourites, including Coniston Water (35 minutes) for watersports and boating as well as the steam heritage line operated by the Ravenglass & Eskdale Railway (30 minutes).
