Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite is a tranquil oasis scattered with rhododendrons from the garden of the former Old Hall. Located in Cumbria's Eden Valley, the campsite is set against a backdrop of the lovely High Stand Forest. Recent reports show that the number of red squirrels in the area has increased, so you may be lucky to see some during your visit. The site now offers a viewing hide from which you can watch red squirrels.
Come for a night, stay for a week. That's what happens to those using the Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite as a stopover during the drive to Scotland on the M6. The area is especially popular for walkers because of its convenient footpath access to uncrowded landscapes and scenic beauty - the Eden Valley riverside walk is a special treat. For added activities such as a swimming pool, cinema, restaurants and pubs, the nearby city of Carlisle won't disappoint. Carlisle Castle and the famous Hadrian's Wall are only a short drive away. The site is a perfect choice for those with dogs, with many local dog-friendly pubs. A serene gem surrounded by views of the Lakeland fells and wild flower scattered country lanes, the caravan site offers an excellent escape.
The site is quiet during the school holidays, making it the ideal choice for those seeking a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

Great very well kept site and quiet
Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite
5 nights and well located for North Lakes, Hadrian's Wall, Solway, Carlisle. Solway Air Museum well worth a visit, not expensive and allow a good couple of hours.
Very well kept site, quiet, quite a few tall trees around but that was good as it was very windy the time we stayed.
Site managers, Carol and Mick very pleasant and helpful. They keep a very well cared for mini log cabin with lots of local infrmation so look it out.
Do follow arrival directions on which road to come in on.
Perfect getaway
Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite
Stayed at Engletgwaite for 3 nights and will 100% return. I stayed on pitch 6. Upon arrival the wardens where very welcoming and friendly. I didn't need to see them again which in my view means it was pretty much perfect. A lovely well kept site with lots of little cul de sacs. The onside dog walk was brilliant and the added benefit of the adjoining woodlands and lakes was just the ticket. Only a few miles from the m6 but felt a world away. Cant wait to visit again soon.
Beautiful site
Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite
We only stayed for 2 nights, but we found the site really beautiful and clean. The wardens were really nice and helpful. Shame it hasn't got toilets and showers, therefore making it a bit difficult for longer stays and families and caravans/motorhomes and campers without shower facilities. However, the site layout was brilliant, good distance between caravans. Fresh water, waste disposal very well laid out. The little forest behind with red squirrels was beautiful. Although I am an adult, I found the little fairy land really nice and a brilliant addition. We would definitely recommend staying here. Not far to Carlisle and Hadrian's wall. Superbly located.
A great place to relax
Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite
This was our third stay here and we absolutely love it. The site is a perfect location to relax amongst peaceful surroundings. The grounds are well maintained by the very helpful, friendly wardens Mick and Carol.
There are plenty of walks surrounding the site where you can enjoy the bird life and Red squirrels.
There is also plenty to see not too far away including Hadrian's Wall and the Solway Aviation Museum at Carlisle airport. Looking forward to returning soon.
Wet, wet, wet!!
Englethwaite Hall Club Campsite
Our 7th visit to this site and whilst the weather was disappointing, relentless heavy rain at times, the wardens were welcoming and apart from the flooded pitches, the site was colourful and well maintained. Since our last visit, the service points have been covered with gazebo type structures and were very much appreciated to shelter under whilst doing the water / waste etc. in the inclement weather. The MH service point has also moved and is far more user friendly. We walked to the nearest village of Cotehill as we had booked a table for tea at The Greyhound but alas it was closed which surprised us for a mid Saturday afternoon and with nothing else to do, we cancelled our table and went back to the site. I believe the pub does great food and is dog friendly but for future reference, it obviously has limited opening hours. Re other reviews stating no facilities block, the webpage does mention this and therefore shouldn't surprise anyone. I never use facilities blocks anyway but if one was to be built at Englethwaite, the prices would go up. I value these sites as I am not paying for something I don't use, keeps the cost down and means I can have a few extra nights away. Washrooms in vans shouldn't be ornaments and at least I know mine has been looked after and cleaned thoroughly and I don't have to share it!
Thank you kindly wardens for a lovely weekend despite the weather, we will be back.
