Lakeside & Haverthwaite Railway
Climb aboard an old heritage steam train for stunning views as you travel back in time to enjoy bygone years.
View and BookA family run certified location site set in the small Lake District hamlet of Newby Bridge.
Simply stunning fellside location– that’s how many will choose to sum up Valley End. The certified location is in prime Lake District territory: the southern end of Windermere and the National Trust’s lakefront Fell Foot park are five minutes’ drive away, and once there, it’s possible to take a dip or hire watersports equipment to properly soak up the lake and fell views.
The site is set in a classic Cumbrian landscape. It’s green and rural, dotted with trees and with views over faraway hills and neighbouring farms with neighbouring sheep and wildlife. For your daily walkies (dogs being optional – as it’s a dog-friendly site, too), make your way to the Cumbrian Coastal Way (10 minutes’ drive) or the trails of Grizedale Forest (25 minutes).
A perfect setting for exploring and long walks. For dinner out, head down to the village to eat at one of its several hotels, which welcome non-guests. Self-catering is very achievable too, with supermarkets in Ulverston or Milnthorpe, both within 20 minutes’ drive of the site. There is also a local garage with well stocked shop less than a mile away along the A590. The A590 and the M6 are two handy nearby motorway links.

We have just returned from our 3 night stay at Valley End and it's a really nice well kept site. Lots of space and open views, the hard standing worked well and the pitch was not far off level. The electric is extra but very reasonable, we paid about £3.50... Show more
