Small very well-kept adult only touring park with fantastic views of surrounding Cumbrian fells. Popular with those seeking peace & relaxation but also handy for all the attractions of both The Lake District & The Yorkshire Dales. Many visiting birds which we like to encourage mainly in the pretty central shrubbery, the site also enjoys views of grazing sheep on the hills, dairy cows & frequent sheepdog training by the farmer in a nearby paddock. Immaculate facilities block which is heated in the cooler months with free hot showers & less-abled WC. All pitches have hook-ups & gravel hardstanding. WiFi internet to all pitches - extra charge. Boosted TV signal with around 50 digital channels included in your pitch fee. Well-behaved dogs welcome at no extra charge. Many lovely country walks directly from the site & also small doggy exercise area on site ideal for quickies.
