Why stay here ...
Our CL site is set on a small working farm in the idilic Eden Valley, between the Lake District National Park and the Outstanding Pennines.
Adults and children are most welcome (no dogs allowed). There are hard standing and grass pitches with electrical hookups and space for an awning. There is also a shower/toilet block. Shepherd hut & cottages also available on farm.
The site is ideally situated behind a small wooded area up the farm lane, within easy reach from junction 41 of the M6. It is perfectly located for exploring the surrounding area with Lake Ullswater only 10 minutes away, Carlisle 15 minutes and Keswick and Kendal 30 minutes. Given the location it is the ideal stopover for breaking up journeys into Scotland.
The nearest pub is 1.8 mile away and the local town of Penrith is only 5 minutes away which has all the local amenities such as cinema/ swimming pool/ shops/ supermarkets/ restaurants/ takeaways.

No Longer Run As A CL
We stayed here for an overnight stop last night. We received a very warm welcome from Julie and David. The pitches are large and spacious, with water and electric to each pitch. There is also toilets and showers which we have to say are very good. The surroundings are scenic.... Show more

Cracking Little Site

Highly recommend
We stayed here for two nights on our way to Scotland it was a lovely site, the showers were very clean and the owners very helpful. It was easy to get to off junction 41 of the M6. We will not hesitate in using this site again.

Clean site, helpful friendly owner
Stayed one night. Fresh water and EHU on each pitch. Some road noise, but not intrusive. Lovely showers and toilet. Recommend as not far from M6

All round excellence
Lovely CL with choice of 7 pitches, although one is smaller than the others which are very generous. There is a well kept little play area and two individual shower rooms that are fully equipped with large shower, sink, toilet etc and each pitch has its own water tap.... Show more

Great CL well placed for Penrith

A good overnight stop.
We had one night at Woodhead Farm on our way to Scotland. Access is great from the M6, which is why we chose to stay. Obviously being that close there is motorway noise. I’m sure if the wind was in a different direction we may not have... Show more
