Crake Trees Manor

喜欢: The views were lovely and it was nice to be surrounded by nature.

It was a peaceful site (except for the squealing pigs at 0150 - which as you can imagine, scared the life out of me!)
It was good to be able to chose our own pitch.

不喜欢: No lights in bathrooms except over night. The bathrooms are quite dark and it meant it was quite difficult to see.
Mirrors in bathrooms are awkwardly situated. Not all bathrooms had mirrors.
Said kettle didn't work as generator on at certain times. After a 6 hour drive we were desperate for a cup of tea - luckily some fellow visitors lent us some gas so we could make a cup.

来自经理: If you take a look at the previous review, you will realise how differing guests have differing expectations/needs and wants. We basically strive to please ( we are a hospitality business after all)
Anyway in answer to your remarks.
All guests are informed the generator would be providing elecrtric supply that was not 24 hr, while we change electric supply. This happened unfortunately during August and was out of our control.
BUT....the second shower block and kitchen ( 2 mins walk ) was fully on grid and had fully operational kettles, fridges, microwaves etc.
You are camping, and guests are advised to bring a flash light for those late night trips to the loo.
Being in the far north we have a short time only of pure darkness .
We are also proud of our "dark skies" status.
The free range pigs are quite a feature of our regenerative farming system. The campsite is at the centre of the farm surrounded by waving historic grassland, plus 2 fields that usually have a breeding rare breed sow with piglets during the summer months.
Guests enjoy engaging with the pigs, they have very special characters.
During the night if the piglets decide its feed time they squeal until the sow rolls over so that they can all suckle together, and the sounds carries through the valley!

喜欢: We booked this campsite last minute after deciding to travel to The Lake District from Bristol. The campsite is lovely, it has everything you might need and more…. Including little piglets. We stayed Friday - Monday and on Saturday they had a dj, it was amazing everyone was up dancing even the owners! Honestly recommend to anyone wanting to go the Lake District or to just go camping here. Best campsite ever!!

来自经理: Maybe read this review with the previous review.
Thank you so much for being such appreciative campers of all the care and attention we put into our agritourism business.

喜欢: The campsite was lovely with good facilities (the toilets and showers by the farmhouse are much nicer than the ones by the car park!). They were kept clean but toilet paper was often hard to come by! The kitchen was well set up. It's a great idea having a kettle and microwave as it makes camping cooking so much easier. The food truck was open on Saturday evening and the food was very tasty. Mike and Ruth were friendly and non-obtrusive and Mike came round the campsite at least once a day to make sure everyone was okay.

不喜欢: It was a little confusing when we got there, as we didn't know where to go to find the camping field or what to do (the welcome email had arrived while we were travelling). The food pricing is also a bit out of date as we were charged more than advertised. Other campers said the same thing.

来自经理: Thanks for the lovely review.
Regarding the pricing of food on Saturday night.
Like most hospitality business's in Cumbria we are really short staffed.
I was on taking orders ( not something I have done this year) and I do know that I made some mistakes.
I organise staffing & usually and walk around checking all is Ok, we were down to third chef, it was a bit of a challenge.
Anyone who released the pricing was wrong was immediately refunded.
I could not do that If I didn't know, or wasn't alerted to a mistake!!

喜欢: We loved our stay at crake trees manor! Lovely clean showers- heated floors were a bonus! We really enjoyed the combine shed with crag sow on the Saturday night! With pizzas & burgers.

We work hard to try and make our site welcoming and a little bit different. Campers and Glampers ( plus local people from the villages) really enjoy our Farm kitchen and summer music nights.

喜欢: The scenic views and surrounding nature

喜欢: Wonderful site, Ruth & Mike were fantastic hosts, had a fantastic time. Mixed bag of pods, tents, non electric camper vans and electric hook up, underfloor heating in the showers / toilets are superb. Food available on site and a bar some fab music to boot.

不喜欢: Nothing not to like.

喜欢: My Dad and I turned up on a soggy night and were dreading setting up our tents. The farmer offered us the bunk house as an alternative which was fabulous. Lovely clean and well maintained working farm surrounded by sublime views. Would definitely stay here again. Beautiful place 😍

不喜欢: Nothing to dislike

Definitely coming back.

喜欢: Stayed in the pods. Basic as expected, clean with beautiful views. Fire pit with starter kit lasted us 2 nights . The kitchen and toilet/shower block was a 60 second walk . Good powerful showers with hot water . What made the visit was the barn and live music on the Saturday , and not forgetting the owners who clearly work their backsides off in order to keep this place as lovely as it is. Can’t wait to return
