The Manor (10 minute walk from site) has food and entertainment every weekend and is pet friendly.
Small boats can be launched from the beach and there is fishing available nearby. Golf, horse riding, cycle hire and clay pigeon shooting (see owners) and many more available within Allonby or Silloth.
