Wonderful Break

This is a lovely spot for walkers. The park is dog friendly, and the staff are very helpful. The facilities are clean and tidy. The park is laid out very well if you want shaded spots there are spots in the trees or you can have full sunshine in other areas. Just out the gates there is a hotel/restaurant which welcome non residence. If you like walking you can walk from the park to Grange Over Sands which is a delightful Victorian seaside town. Lake Windermere is only 14 miles away, and Cartmel about 4 miles away which you can walk from the park. All in all a beautiful area to visit and a lovely campsite to stay at. This is our second time to this park and already plan to go back next year.

Top marks here

We only spent one night here on our way south from Scotland and had a very nice welcome on check in. The site is immaculate, with well kept lawns and lots of poo bins. There is a lovely walk just outside the site through the woods, so wish we could have had more time. The toilet and shower block were clean and well serviced. I liked the little bench seat outside the curtain in the shower cubical too...nice touch there. The site is dry stone walled, so views are at a premium but we did see the sands briefly from our motor home.

Access

No other recent review seems to mention the dreadfully steep narrow incline to this site. Our twin axle caravan was only inches from the floor at the backend it's so steep ! Fingers crossed as we arrived and left the site that we didn't meet anything on the road. This site also has no one way system and it needs it ! It's a very nice site, lots of shady trees and grass kept lovely. The wardens were very friendly and the facilities were excellent but don't think we'll be returning in a hurry

Just arrived back from this excellent well run site with spotlessly clean toilet block and very friendly wardens, and the good weather did help.

Excellent Site

We have just spent seven days at this excellent club site. The wardens keep the site in tip top order and the facilities are clean and warm . Additionally they are friendly , helpful and pleasant; a model for others dare I suggest . The site is well placed to visit the south lakes and Lancashire and there is some excellent walking from the site. Grange over Sands where there are excellent shops and restaurants are a forty five minute walk . My only slightly negative point is the excessive number of dogs on the site and the practice of walking them round the site rather than taking them off site. Yes the rules allow for it but perhaps the club should consider requiring dogs to be "exercised" either on dedicated dog walks or off site.

Return visit to Meathop

Made our annual visit to Meathop Fell in mid May and as usual all was fine and dandy. Facilities immaculate and well kept, no faults what so ever. We were accompanied on this visit by our daughter and family who thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Excellent site for visiting the surrounding towns with Cartmel a must to try the sticky toffee pudding mmmmm. We will definitely be back and would recommend.

A return visit

We stayed here last year and returned but only for two nights this time on our way up to Scotland. This is the most magical site with wonderful views over fields or Morecombe Bay, the choice is yours. We didn't take long to choose our pitch, we just looked over the wall for where we were last time and hurrah, it was free. Facilities are spotless and warm! This is becoming one of our 'must go to' places.

Lovely weather, lovely site.

Just returned from a lovely week at this site. Clean and tidy site as you would expect. A good meal at the adjacent Woodlands Hotel Caravan Park. Lots of things to do nearby. Enjoyed a visit to Holker hall and gardens (2 for 1 with club voucher) which were lovely at this time of year. Grange and Cartmel are pretty villages with interesting little shops, sticky toffee pud is very yummy! I think the club needs to update its information linked to this site as I attempted to go to Kayes Tearoom and nursery which the club listed as one of the places to visit - but it had closed down about 18mths ago. Also the model village is no longer a 2 for 1 member offer. Otherwise a great week. Motor museum great and a glorious cruise on Lake Windermere. Many attractions within a 10 mile radius so not spending hours in the car when you could be enjoying the sunshine.
