Situated between the stunning landscapes of the Lake District and the beautiful beaches of the Solway Coast, this is an ideal spot to enjoy the outdoors. Being adult only, you can enjoy peace and quiet as you sit back and soak in the wonderful countryside views. All the pitches are fully serviced with water, waste and 16 amp electric. There are 15 grass pitches for both tents and tourers, along with 15 hardstanding pitches for tourers only. Each pitch allows up to just two guests to ensure the park is never too crowded. You also don't need to worry about sharing facilities as each pitch comes with its own dedicated wetroom. Each includes a toilet, a basin and a shower so you can enjoy a relaxed morning routine without having to worry about a queue! There are also ten holiday homes on offer, each fully furnished and with central heating. The park is home to a host of natural creatures, so be on the alert for elusive red squirrels, swooping buzzards and plenty of other birds and wildlife waiting to meet you. Dogs can also join you onsite, with up to two allowed per pitch.
