Why stay here ...
A warm welcome is extended to caravanners and mobile home owners to come and relax and to visit our lovely area. Our 1.25 acre lawned site is located just outside the small village of Laithes, away from main roads. All our pitches are level and have access to electric hook ups and stunning views over open countryside, woodland and fells. The site overlooks our adjoining 2.5 acre field, ensuring your privacy.
The sunsets over Blencathra are breathtaking and are well worth looking out for. Located on the edge of the Lake District National Park, we are an ideal base for touring, walking and cycling. Our site is ideal for those wishing to break their journey going to, or coming from Scotland for an overnight stay and for those wishing a long stay to appreciate our beautiful area.

Another excellent stay
Town End Cottage
After a last minute change of plan over the Easter weekend as the forecast was so bad in Pembrokeshire, we decided to come up to Cumbria (from Bristol) to visit my parents in Penrith and enjoy the North Lakes (and better forecast) as we know it's much quieter over Bank Holidays than in the National Park. We stayed 2 years ago when we first converted our campervan, the first site we have returned to! it had been wet but with mats on the corner as you turn into the further field, absolutely no access problems as so flat. Ian was also alternating the two fields, it's nice there is so much space and a fabulous view towards Blencathra. Ian keeps the fields well mown.
As we're self sufficient with solar we don't need EHU so the "no hook up price" (currently £16) is very appealing for us. Even end of March in showery conditions our solar worked fine as there is no tree cover. we remained fully topped up over 3 days. Very fair pricing with "reasonable use" EHU too.
We had our bikes and it's an easy ride into Penrith but the attraction are the lovely lanes in all directions (flat out towards Silloth), not busy. We rode to Caldbeck for a walk and lunch with family, and also a nice circuit to Greystoke when we arrived. On Sunday we had a fabulous time at the Boot and Shoe Inn at Greystoke that has a (free) live band on every Sunday afternoon 4-6.30. Many walks and it's great to chill at the campsite. love the bonus of a very clean toilet in the yard, and properly organised recycling. Worth staying for longer than just a "stopover" when travelling. We will be back.
Great location near M6
Town End Cottage
We have just stayed one night en route to Scotland. Lovely site and plenty of space to pitch. Access for our twin axle was a bit tight at the gated entrance off a narrow lane, but we managed fine. Will certainly use again, and hopefully spend longer in the area.
Pretty and quiet site
Town End Cottage
We spent a couple of days here in May 2022 as a start to the holiday year.
It's a lovely quiet site with plenty of space across two paddocks so you can choose where you park up.
The grounds are well kept, with trees and fields surrounding the site. The owners have provided recycling bins for all the different rubbish you may generate.
Getting to the site was simple with easy access from M6 but far enough away so the only noise is the wildlife or passing tractors! Lovely to see the resident hens on site as well.
It's in a great spot for visiting the local area, we spent time at Dalemain Mansion and then shopping in Penrith.
The local pub The Sun Inn at Newton Reigny is excellent but please note they are no longer part of the DINE scheme, it's very popular so book ahead.
We recommend staying here and hope to do so again ourselves in future.
Short stay at Town End Cottage CL
Town End Cottage
This is a very well maintained, quiet and spacious site, with easy access from the M6. I stayed for 3 nights, using it as a base to visit relatives living locally, but equally it is very handy for the North Lakes and the Eden valley. I'd have no hesitation in booking again.
Well kept and tidy CL
Town End Cottage
This is the 3rd time we have stayed at this site. We usually stay here when heading south to the ferries as its so convenient for the M6. This year we were heading home from the south. We really should spend more than one night as its a great CL with plenty to do in the area.
As usual the grass was freshly cut, the pitches are a good size and the stay was relaxing. There is the odd tractor going up the the nearby farm and depending on when you stay you may not even hear one.
What more can I say, we will stay here again and would recommend it to others.
