Peaceful site

A lovely, peaceful site. Ideal for relaxation. Pitches well spaced out. Not too busy when we went so plenty of pitches to choose from - not over looked at all. Clean shower block at all times. Good for walks. Trees all around but not over hanging caravans. Will definitely return.

Just as a Caravan Club site should be

We stayed here for 5 nights during the unexpected dry and sunny Spring weather of late March. We last stayed here in Aug 1997 - facilities have been updated thankfully since then but the site was just as welcoming as it was then. Its easy to get to (my only grip is the potholes in the roadway immediately prior to the site but this is no fault of the club as its a public highway) and makes a good base for touring the south lakes of the Lake District. My low score for suitability for families is only for the fact that unless the children are interested in walking or watersports then this area may be a bit limiting for them, unless of course the like to enjoy the magnificent scenery of the Lake District as we do?

Great site

The site, staff and facilities are 'top notch', I was very impressed and will be back later in the year. Can't understand the caravanners complaint regarding water temperature as we were there at the same time and I had to turn the shower to cool. My only complaint is with the wifi, for £2.50 a day it is very poor and the Caravan and Motorhome Club should make it free of charge until it is upgraded.

Idyllic Site

Meathop is the most delightful site. The setting and ambiance was truly lovely. Grange is within easy reach by car or bike. The wardens were very helpful and gave us very useful information about the surrounding area. It was our first visit but will not be our last.

Great site!!

Meathop is a great club site it has spotless toilets and the ground I see kept neat and tidy , the wardens are very friendly, it's a great area to walk in and there are plenty of things to do out and about as you are near Kendal Windermere arnside ambleside ,if your ever in the area it's a must to visit. The only downside at the minute is the road works on the Barrow rd which are a nuisance as I never saw anyone working on them!

Nice site

Nice clean site with some good views from some pitches. Water pressure (hot and cold) a bit low. The water was hot enough, on our visit, in the showers but there was no need to think about adding cold water in the cubicle sinks (referring to a previous review). Road works on the A590 towards Kendal and long term at Newby Bridge (the other way) meant getting around could be a bit of an adventure. Large (by their standards) Co-Op in Grange with Large Morrisons and Asda in Kendal. Sizer Castle (NT) 6.5 miles away good for a visit.

Always reliable

We have been to this site a number now times and it never fails to deliver. It is always clean and tidy and well kept. If I had a small critism it would be that you have to go for site to walk your dog. The road outside the site can be busy and not everybody sticks to the speed limit.Having said that I would visit again provided they have finished the road works on the main Barrow road! A good site in a lovely part of the world

Meathop Fell - Always worth a visit

Hi All I have been going her for more years than I care to remember. It is a lovely site especially since the approach road was totally redone last year by the local authority. It is just a pity what the wifi is next to useless. The strength of the wife signal on the site is good but alas the connection speeds to the internet are very poor and you struggle to get on line when you want. You basically have to keep trying and hope you can at least check your emails. A waste of a months subs for me as I roughly go away each month. It would be better if the Club classed it as non wife or in bold stated very poor. Perhaps they should invest in a satellite link as the local broadband infrastructure is so poor. When you cannot log on the net and then you see all the new branding then I think the Club could probably afford the cost. Otherwise well worth a visit.
