We have just returned from a 2 night short break. The site is set in beautiful woodland, with superb facilities and really friendly helpful staff. Some of the pitches do require a chock to level your van, but this is no problem. It is extremely peaceful and even in just two nights we felt like we had been away ages and felt really refreshed. The walk through to Kendal is approximately 5 miles and takes around 1 hour 20 minutes. It is well worth it though as it is through lovely countryside, along the river bank and the old canal towpath. The views are stunning. The short walk to the Strickland Arms is also well worth it,the food and ambience are both worth the short walk. The staff are really informative about the surrounding area and there is a great information room, which contains all the information you could possibly need during your stay. There are maps and guides for sale in the office and only cost a small donation to the local air ambulance charity. It's a great site and we will absolutely return.
