Lovely Site

We spent a week in late June at this lovely site in the South Lakes. Wardens were excellent, and site itself is clean and well kept. A wonderful place to stay for a peaceful and relaxing break. Grange over Sands is a must visit. Full of Victorian charm

Great site.

As with other reviewers, the site very nice enjoyed our stay here. No place to walk the dog except the woods which aren't very large. Five minutes walk at the most. The water pressure is low, and does take time to fill the sink. But that just gives you more time to chat to other campers. The lane heading up to the site needs cutting back to give more chance of spotting people heading out. As it can be a bit tight passing other caravaners. Who leave after noon.

Nice walk into Grange-over-Sands

A lovely site in a lovely location. It's close to Grange-over-Sands, which has lots of shops and an amazing walk along the esplanade with beautiful views of Morecambe Bay. The site was quite noisy while we were there due to it being during the school holiday. The only other critisism that I have is about the hot water pressure, it took ages to fill the washing up sink and the shower was without decent pressure although the water was hot.

Pleasant week

In 35 years of membership our first visit. Can't see why we have always ruled this site out in the pas when visiting the Lake District. There are lovely views and Grange over Sands is a very nice place with the Kent Estuary providing a good backdrop. It's easy to drive to a wide range of places and the access is quick and easy apart from negotiating the access. So please follow the 12:00 rule or you will have to reverse!!!! Only down side is the lack of walks from the site directly. Also the broadband is of limited value. We will return..

Cannot believe we have not stayed here before

We stayed on this site for a week over Easter and considering how close to home it is we could understand why we had not been before. The site is very well maintained in a stunning location with wonderful views. All four wardens were very helpful and pleasant. Toilets/showers were very clean considering the site was full. The pub on the adjacent site has reasonably priced drinks, although we ate there one evening and we were disappointed with both the service and food. We hope to revisit this site many times.

Great site at Meathop

We have just returned from 8 nights a Meathop, this is a great site. Good position less than half an hour off the M6 junction 36. This is a good base to explore the Lake District with the added advantage of the sea being close and visible from a few of the pitches. We will certainly use this site again. The woodland hotel was very handy being less than a 10 minute walk up the driveway, it is well priced. We had a three course meal that was very good. Pint of wainwrights bitter £3, San Miguel £3.60. Windermere Lakeside is close to catch the boat to travel up the lake. We had the added advantage of very good weather for May.

First visit, won't be last.

Very easy to get to site and although approach is narrow, it is not a problem. Once on site the wardens were very friendly and explained all that was needed to enjoy the site. Well kept and toilet block was spotless. Although a lot of trees we found a superb pitch that had sun for the majority of the day and good line of reception for satellite dish. The weather whilst there was excellent and obviously this enhanced the stay. Woodlands Hotel was good for a meal and a good pint of cask ale (wainrights), although not a bar that you would spend a few hours in. Only a 10 minutes walk. Grange is approx 45 min walk along quiet country lanes or 10 mins in car. Kendal easy drive approx 10 miles. Highly recommend the site for a peaceful break on the edge of the lovely Lake District.

Perfect for us

What a lovely site. We were desperate for a peaceful, relaxing week away and Meathop Fell certainly delivered for us. It was so clean and tidy and the wardens were very pleasant. Loved it here

Peaceful Break

Lovely location at the foot of the South Lakes, hands for Grange over Sands, Ulverston, Kendal and Windermere /Boweness. Various pitches covering all needs, hard standings in tree shade or open sun, grassed meadow pitches, and small alcoves. Usual caravan club standards, but no security barrier. We had a lovely sunny weekend, and decided to do the coast road from Ulverston to Barrow, surprisingly lovely route and a change from the busy mountain and fell towns and villages. Will be going again. Approach road a lot better this year with hedges cut well back.
