Just beautiful

What a beautiful site the wardens keep this site in tip top condition and are very welcoming. There are no facilities and no play grounds for children this not a criticism as this is why we chose this site for its tranquil surroundings. And it’s beautiful morning chorus of bird song We had a serviced pitch but the waste and emptying facilities are well situated around the site. The area is fantastic for quiet walks and RSPB Geltsdale Is a short drive and a lovely walk in the hills and a definite is RSPB Mearsehead in Dumfries & Galloway which is absolutely stunning if you like deserted beaches. The lakes and tourist attractions are in easy reach.

5 night stay

Just returned from a really enjoyable 5 night stay. What a gem of a site. Beautifully kept by the excellent team of wardens. Pitches are level and well placed in peaceful terraced glades with abundant bird life.The new covered disposal points are a great asset, well situated without being obtrusive.The site is within easy reach of the Lake District, Carlisle and all the Roman sites along Hadrian's wall. I feel the site would benefit from more serviced pitches given there are no facilities. However I do feel the provision of facilities would spoil the site. We will definitely be back.

Perfection in the countryside

We have stayed here several times over the years and love it. It is spacious, spotless and welcoming. Maybe not too great for children, but wonderful for dogs. The dedicated dog walk, leading to a fully enclosed exercise field is exceptionally good, as well as the attached woodland and lakeside walks. Added to all this, the England girls beat Germany in the European Cup whilst we were there. What more could one ask for. 😀

One of the best sites in the network

Just had a week at what is our favourite Club site. Beautifully set within trees, very quiet and the site managers are excellent especially the way they look after the site. Just one caveat: this is the third time we’ve been faced with ‘road closed’ signs. The first time it was the water company (had to reverse the van in a fairly narrow B road until we could do a six point turn), second time it was just closed, diversion not bad via a housing estate and today the gas company had dug a trench and the diversion was via a narrow lane. All good fun and not the site managers’ fault. Reckon it’s us that jinx the place.

A gem of a site!

We stayed over for 2 nights on our way to Scotland. We have never been to a club site without a shower block and as a family of four this would only suit us for a short stay, so a weekend for example. It is however, such a beautiful, peaceful and pretty site - the best I have visited in terms of how pretty and well kept it is. If you don't need facilities, and enjoy nature, then this is the site for you. I just wish it was closer to us as I would absolutely visit it for weekends to "get away from it all". It provides an excellent base for cycling, and walking and going "off grid". Hopefully we will return at some point.

A hidden gem

A delightfully peaceful site in a superb location. Friendly and welcoming (relief) wardens and the site is maintained to a high standard. Great access to walks in High Stride wood and well located for access to Carlisle and surrounds.

Wonderful site

I find it very sad that many people only use this site for overnights on the way north or south. We had several days here in April/May and it is so calm and peaceful it really deserves more time. The gardens are immaculate, and the secret garden a delight. There is lots to do in the area, from the city of Carlisle to Hadrians Wall to the Solway Air Museum, and so much more.

Lovely and peaceful

Small and peaceful site with nature right on your doorstep, the site had lots of bird feeders and plenty of birdsong as a result, this site is a must for animal lovers with Red squirrels onsite although the hide needs updating. The staff were very friendly and welcoming when we arrived which is nice to see. This is a very relaxing site just outside of the Lake District and would make a lovely base to visit from. We only stayed one night on the way down from the highlands but we wish we had stayed much longer, we will definitely be returning for another longer stay.
