Liked: Lovely peaceful location. Best night’s sleep. Clearly advertised as basic facilities with just an elsan point, drinking water and bin but price reflected this and was worth it to stay in legit area where despite being a bit remote, we felt safe.
Disliked: Nothing

Liked: We visited for the entirety of the August back holiday weekend. We loved the peaceful and beautiful surroundings, it was idyllic. You get an outstanding view of the Lake District mountains. Sheep surround the caravans and you don’t really notice the golf course because your eye is drawn to the beautiful landscape of the Lake District. The access to the Lake District was excellent, despite the distance due to extremely good A-roads. It was quicker to travel in to certain parts of the lakes from this site than if we’d stayed in the lakes. The field is obviously full of sheep poo and the sheep did wake us up one morning rubbing against the caravan but they quickly scattered when I opened the door. There is a clean water tap, Great water tap, and a place to deposit your chemical toilet and get water and nothing else. This is made really clear so that was fine with us. The last two benefits are you can check in and check out at anytime so there is no rush, and there is one hard standing pitch!

Liked: Fantastic all round views, peace and quiet. Sheep and golfers for company. Walks from pitch. Able to park on hardstanding. Plenty of room, can choose where to pitch. Excellent value. All the facilities you need in a self contained van ie. water, waste and bin. Close to the town of Appleby for supplies, good range of independent shops and interesting buildings and castle

Liked: Everything! The setting (beautiful, rugged & wild), the facilities (water & a CDP is all we needed), the location (central to the Lakes, Pennines & Dales) and of course, not forgetting, the adorable sheep. We can't wait to come & stay again!

Liked: Although site is a bit bumpy and overgrown in the farthest areas. It offers seclusion, lovely views of the hills, there's wild animals roaming freely, golfers in the morning making terrible shots! Ease of water tap and waste dump, good wifi signal coverage and a large pond for fishing. Will definitely return. Thanks to the owner 🫡
