What customers say

Stybeck Farm is a welcoming, no-frills working farm campsite in a beautiful Lake District location. Visitors praise the stunning views, friendly and helpful hosts, and proximity to walks and public transport. Facilities are basic but clean, including toilets and a shower with an additional charge. While some mention farm noise and limited phone signal, the overall sentiment is positive, with many planning return visits.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked The relaxed atmosphere was lovely, having the ability to park where ever as long as it was at a hook up. We loved watching the sheep in the field and the dogs running around. Would definitely recommend here! It is just off a main road but you honestly wouldn’t be able to tell

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked The site is small and nestled in the side of the hill as indicated on the pictures.

Disliked We booked this site in APRIL. Upon arrival there was no pitch available for us where all the fellow campers were. We were offered to ‘pull in’ at the side of the lane exiting the farm where EHU was available. In the night the owner squeezed another camper in next to ours leaving a couple of foot between us.

Bear in mind this site has unmarked pitches, primitive facilities and is near a busy main road (which I admit I should have googled before booking). The facilities for emptying your waste cassette is a manhole cover with a handle ! You cannot wash your cassettes out.

We paid for 2n and left after one. The quad bike going past the van at 5am was the nail in the coffin..

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked Really friendly site with everything you need. Has a couple of toilets and showers, which is enough for the number of people staying, you might have a small wait but nothing major. Showers are hot and you get plenty of time for £1. Plenty of walks straight from the campsite, and you can walk to the pub either along the road, or along a footpath/bridleway behind the site. Will certainly stay again! There is also a bus stop close to the site, so easy enough to get into Keswick etc.

Katrina S.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked The views were stunning, two toilets, one shower all kept very clean with a homely touch. Pub and cafe within walking distance. Pub has a great menu but would recommend reserving as was a popular choice. They did squeeze us in. Bus stop right on the doorstep of the location. Plenty of choice to park and set up across three levels and pitches were level with electric hook ups and water nearby. Plenty of farm yard animals and dogs. It is a working farm. Loved listening to the menagerie of animals. Owner was very friendly and onsite if needed. Would definitely stay again.

Disliked Very close to the road, however, mostly quiet by bedtime and with a good pair of ear plugs, the road will barely disturb you. While having no WiFi on site didn’t bother me, there were WiFi options at the cafe and the pub nearby.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch

Liked Lovely friendly welcom.
Fantastic views from pitch.
Convenient location 2 minutes walk to bus to several towns and villages. 15 minutes to walk to pub roadside or a bit longer via footpath. Cafe 2 minutes walk away.

Disliked Shower is so hot it was hard to stand under needs temperature control adding and tbh could really do with an update. 2 toilets is probably not enough for the number of pitches. Pot cold water only.

Local attractions

Travel 10 minutes in the car, and about 5000 years back in time, to see Castlerigg Stone Circle, one of the earliest constructions of its kind in Britain. It’s also 10 minutes’ drive to start your journey to discover another important part of the Lake District’s history – albeit a bit more recent – on the Keswick to Threlkeld Railway Trail, which repurposes the Victorian railway line as an accessible path through tunnels and over bridges. If the weather isn’t playing nice, there are a couple of popular places to while away a rainy few hours in Keswick (10 minutes' drive): the Derwent Pencil Museum and The Puzzling Place, where nothing is quite as it seems. Keswick's also the place for boat trips and watersports on Derwentwater. Alternatively, if you fancy a pint or a dram to put a spring in your step, and want to learn all about how they’re made, you could pay a visit to the Keswick Brewing Company (10 minutes) or the Lakes Distillery in Cockermouth (20 minutes).
