Off to the western lakes but want to wander lonely as a cloud instead of being there jam-packed in crowds? Have a look at Whinfell Farm Camp Site: it's secluded, medium sized and in a winning position for scouting around Cockermouth, Buttermere and the highlights of the western Lake District. Such scenic surrounds require no complex facilities and entertainments, so amenities have been kept simple but with thoughtful extra touches including hot showers and hairdryers. The washing-up room has been kitted out with a freezer and laundry facilities to ensure it's easy to keep the tribe fed and cleaned up… and well-behaved dogs are welcome to join the jaunt to the Lakes as long as they're kept on leads while on site. Whinfell also allows barbecues (not campfires, firepits or anything of that ilk, please): just remember to keep them off the ground to prevent damage to the turf. If you want to eat out, it's a leisurely 10-minute trot to the 17th-century Wheatsheaf Inn for top-notch meals as well as a tempting range of local ales; best to book before you set out, as such a setup is unsurprisingly rather popular. A decent night's sleep being a vital ingredient of a happy stay for many folk, the owners request that all guests pipe down after 10.30pm to ensure peaceful slumbers all round.

Likte: There were hot showers and that’s the only good thing about this campsite.

Likte ikke: Stayed here with my partner and 2 year old. On arrival there were signs stating we could not pitch up until the number was called. The number didn’t work, I sent a few texts and no response. We decided to pick a pitch as it was getting dark. It was an absolute shambles and free for all. With this campsite being unmanned, people were pulling up at early hours then driving off again, rules stating campers to be quiet after 10:30 (the norm) however this was not the case. Parties, loud music, fires and all sorts going on until 3/4am. The electric hook ups don’t work either! The toilets are disgusting, muddy, wet and a slip hazard. The bins are overflowing everywhere on camp. It stinks.
It states on the description that they added hairdryers to the toilets for leisure. There’s ONE hair dryer in the whole place. This site is an absolute shite hole I wouldn’t bring my blind dog here. Do not book this place unless you want an unhappy, overpriced stay in the middle of no where. You can’t even see the views it states on the website. Never again!

Likte: Close proximity to the fells. Friendly local pub.

Likte ikke: Unimpressed with the facilities - the toilet block stank and recycling was overflowing! Unlike most campsites there was nowhere to charge a phone, although there was a note stating it could be done for a charge! (which given the cost of the campsite per night I thought was quite obnoxious).

Stayed 2 nights and the first was pretty quiet. However on the second night lots of new campers showed up and were squabbling about pitches with no one on site to keep order. Despite there being a stated quiet time this was ignored by some with music playing past midnight.

Lokale attraksjoner

Buttermere and Loweswater are the nearest lakes to Whinfell Farm Camp Site, each with accompanying villages and circular lakeside walks. Loweswater is managed by the National Trust and has rowing boats available for hire. On land, the western lakes area is as full of things to do as its more central counterparts, with activities such as golfing, cycling, shoreline horse rides and hiking around the Roman heritage, valleys and peaks of Eskdale, Wasdale and the coastal village of Ravenglass. Also take time for an afternoon or day among the mountain bike trails and forest walks of Whinlatter, named by the Forestry Commission as England's only true mountain forest. It's one of the Super 6 mountain bike trails and has the longest purpose-built MTB track in the whole Lake District; find out more in the Whinlatter Forestry Centre. Keswick's Honister Slate Mine is the last working slate mine in England and is open to visitors who come for one of the several tours and to climb to the top of the mountain using the original miners' path. And if it's sea you want to see, the Cumbrian coastline at Allonby is about 12 miles away.
