Spent a delightful week here and the location is ideal for the South Lakes. Would definitely return and highly recommend it to others. Good walks close by and The Priory at Cartmel well worth visiting. Staff helpful and friendly. Had wifi problems for a time but it was eventually resolved.
Super Site.
Stayed here last week, very impressed with the friendly staff and well maintained facilities. Cycled into Grange and then on to Cartmel - nice quiet roads with a few challenging climbs. Good access to all areas of the Lake District. Will definitely return to further explore the area.
Meathop Vist
Stayed for a Sunday to Sunday visit, mid March 2015.
Pleasant location with the usual high standard of presentation and cleanliness we have come to expect from the Club. Well located for exploring South Lakes and North Lancashire. Woodlands Hotel, a short walk, provides good food. Some pitches are sloping, even hardstandings, so be sure to bring levelling ramps. Main downside is the access from A590, which is very narrow and with high unprotected embankments. Beware. meeting a caravan coming in the opposite direction can be challenging, indeed somewhat hazardous. For this reason, the Club should discourage caravans leaving the Site late in the day. We met two exiting around 3.30pm.
Little Gem
After returning from a 4 night stay at Meathop Fell my wife and I are fully refreshed after staying at such a peaceful and tranquil site. The site is ideally located for walks or trips to the lakes. All staff are extremely friendly and always willing to help. The facilities onsite are well maintained. We can highly recommend the Woodlands Hotel which is situated within a few minutes’ walk from the site; the food is very good with excellent staff. The woodlands is also dog friendly.
First outing of 2015
Second visit to this site and again did not disappoint. Friendly staff and as usual friendly caravanners. Weather great on our stay which is always a bonus. Local area very good for visits. Will definitely be back.
Rest and relaxation every time!
My husband and I have visited the site on numerous occasions and have never been disappointed. The pitches are well laid out and the toilet blocks are spacious, warm and very clean. The staff are friendly and most welcoming. We arrived on a sunny Friday afternoon and decided to visit the nearby Woodlands hotel for dinner which was excellent. We usually need a torch to see our way back, but this time there were thousands of stars to light the way, uncluttered by artificial lighting. Two owls were having a chat overhead, which added a magical feel to the end of a perfect day. Kendal is nearby and boasts some really good shops. A visit here on Saturday left us laden with goodies, and was followed by a walk along the promenade in Arnside, watching the trains navigate the estuary bridge and onto Grange. Would I visit again? Yes, can't wait to return.
Peace and tranquility guaranteed!
Having just spent 4 relaxing nights at The Meathop Fell site, I can certainly recommend it. The amenities were all very clean and well maintained, the wardens were helpful and unobtrusive unless you needed them. We had a beautiful view over Morecambe bay and were lulled to sleep with the sound of the Owls at night. An easy site to find and access, following the CC directions. Grange over Sands is a lovely old Victorian sea side town with shops, pubs and a fantastic butchers. We had a great afternoon over the bay in Arnside, we walked up the Knot and had a pint in the Albion overlooking the bay, a nice end to our stay.
Peace and quiet guaranteed
As the title suggests a lovely peaceful, quiet site ( apart from the owls!) Stayed here for a short weekend break- only 30 mins from home. Site well kept and facilities second to none! Staff friendly, helpful and welcoming. One to add to the list!

I'll be back
I cannot fault this site - I visit this site many times because it is well located, easily accessed, quiet and an easy site to stay on for an arthriticy old duffer like me who rocks up on her own with a dog. The showers etc are immaculate - the staff are helpful and friendly - what more does anyone want?
