Elite 2 bedroom static caravan
Liked: Clean spacious lodge for 2 people on a nice quiet site! Great if you’re wanting a peaceful break away! Good cooking facilities in the lodge! And a nice big TV! If you take a dog there’s a small / cute dog agility run and there was never other dogs there when we went so leaving us to it! There was also a man made gravel path to walk your dog around a little wooded area with some open views and again quiet
Disliked: Didn’t dislike this too much but your a drive away to shops or a local pub! But if you’re happy to travel by car there is a pub about 5 min drive away and Cockermouth 15 min drive! We liked to cook in the lodge most nights anyway! Said there was a shop and a laundry on the site but could not find this! But it’s a good sight for just leaving you too it! We could never get on the site Wi-Fi to watch Netflix etc, so had to hover off our phone - luckily we have unlimited data!!! But not everyone will I guess
