Never Disappoints

This is one of our favourite sites and it never fails to disappoint, very clean wardens very friendly and set in a beautiful part of the world, the only gripe is the wifi, reception is terrible, nerveless we will be back.

Overall very enjoyable stay

Stayed at Meathop Fell Caravan site over a long weekend late September 2017 and overall it was very enjoyable. Great location with Grange over Sands within an easy walk (around an hour). Pitches are hardstanding which make putting the awning pegs a bit of a job. Lovely views from around the site too. 5 minute walk to the recommended Woodland Hotel next door for a drink or food with the bar area dog friendly. Will definately return again.

the two of us went for one night in September . it was all the things I remember when we used to take the children . complete with Wifi it offers everything needed for a full stay . exceptionally clean , peaceful and excellent facilities . Cannot fault ,but may became the club flagship if it had an off licence and broader selection of chocolate :)

Brilliant site !

Great site for getting around the lakes. Spotless shower block and grounds. However as approach to the site is restricted on width, the 1pm arrival time should be enforced as vans were arriving as early as 9.40 am. We all want to enjoy such a great site but that shouldn't mean that you risk a situation where passing places on the road are restricted.

A pleasant band holiday weekend

This was the only site we could get into when we booked a few weeks so was wondering why. we had forgotten it was Cartmel races and when we arrived on Saturday 26th we were told it was busy. We received a warm welcome but there was some confusion as to the type of pitch we had booked as we have a folding camper, once we explained our unit could go anywhere a caravan could pitch and it was the same size a gent in the office confirmed it was okay. The hard standing pitch was perfect and level and once set we soon relaxed, the site is very peaceful, nice size pitches and the toilets/showers could not be faulted.There is a good supply of goods in the shop and fresh bread delivered daily. I must say that we enjoyed our time on site and did comment on how clean the site was when handing our keys back and this is a credit to the site staff. We will definitely be returning before the year end.

A Peaceful base for a Lake District Holiday

We stayed for a week in August on this lovely peaceful site. When we arrived we had plenty of choice of where to pitch. When we left at the beginning of the bank holiday it was full. Even full this site has a calm feeling. Enough space for the kids to play. Views to the wildlife and cows in the surrounding fields and onward to the Kent estuary if you pick the right pitch. Plenty of shelter if the wind were to pick up. We used the site to visit much of the South Lakes area and it was perfect. It is easily accessible from the M6 / A 390 and it avoids towing on quite narrow roads to get to Park Coppice or similar more central sites. If you want a peaceful break with easy routes to Windermere , Coniston etc then I would recommend Meathop Fell. Not forgetting the usual no fuss caravan club welcome and spotless facilities provided by the friendly staff team. Thank you folks.. We will return.

Peaceful Site on Edge of Lake District

Very peaceful and easily reached and accessed from M6 motorway.Only used as a short stay of 2 nights as a stopover as part of a longer holiday.But we wished we could have stayed longer as we found it a very peaceful and relaxing site. Our pitch had far reaching views over Morcambe Bay.It is a 25 minute walk into Victorian Grange over Sands,with a very pleasant promenade walk. Ravenglass is a longer drive,for the smaller gauge railway into Eskdale.Couple of points to mention,one is there is a decieving hairpin bend as you leave the main road on the lane into Meathop,I only point this out as I met a van (white van man)coming the other way at this point,and a couple of vans were on quite a high level of blocks at the front of their van.

Great stay

Stayed a week at Meathop in our motor home, hiring a car in Kendall to give us greater flexibility in driving around the Lake District's narrow lanes. Site was in very good order, well kept and very clean. We'd read reviews that said we might need a third levelling block on the sloping pitches and we did need it, so be prepared. That said, some other pitches looked much flatter than the one we chose. Once the van was up on its blocks, the habitation door was well above the hard-standing and we were very grateful to the helpful warden who immediately offered to lend us a step for the duration of our stay. Enjoyed a very decent meal at the nearby Woodlands Hotel, which is just a 10-min stroll away. Our stay was largely before school term ended and the site was peaceful and not crowded during that time, though we could see this was changing by the end of the week when several more families arrived. The tv booster cable (run off the hook-up bollard) was absolutely necessary to get a signal. We did not pay for the Site's wifi, as earlier reviews had said it was problematic, so chose to use our mobile phone's monthly data/wifi allowance instead and that worked very well. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this site.
