Electric grass pitch

Liked: the views were lovely, very small site with a play park for the kids to burn off steam, showers were warm and had a hair dryer in the toilets. toilets were clean. a good torch is required though as it is a bit of a walk to the toilets and the path is not lit. situated in a lovely spot for walking/ hiking and short drive to bigger towns. will definatly go back. the pool wasnt open when we were there but in the summer months with the pool the pool looks fab! might book for summer!

Disliked: we went for easter holidays and found that it was a bit water logged (1 caravan had to be pulled out next to us) this cant be helped as it had been particularly wet over the previous weeks to our arrival. i deleted my email and didnt realise and could not get in touch with anyone as this is a volunteer run site so make sure you check your confirmation and write down the code for the toilet block and dont make my mistake! this was my error and not the sites though just a heads up!

Liked: The staff were super friendly, the pool was a great feature. Lovely small site with hot showers and washing up points. Situated right next to the river, with spectacular views to admire and quacking ducks as a wake up call! Will be booking up with more friends for sure!

Local attractions

Lazonby is one of the stations on the very highly scenic Settle-Carlisle Railway line, a fave of famed travel scribe Bill Bryson and a must when in this part of the land. If you only have time for one journey on it, make it south to Settle rather than north to Carlisle, to pass over the mighty Ribblehead Viaduct; have the smartphones at the ready to snap a pic. The local area is rammed with riverside and woodland walks, with loads more to be had in the Lake District 15 miles away, and is popular with cyclists as it's about four miles from the C2C/Sea to Sea cycle route. Plenty of quiet country roads abound with views over the River Eden and surrounding area and to the Pennines if you're getting about by car. Penrith is eight miles from Lazonby Campsite and has lots of shops, supermarkets and services; travel there also for Penrith Castle, a climbing wall, cracking views across the Eden Valley from Beacon Hill and, happily, yet more Cumbrian pubs. And might you fancy a pub meal local to Lazonby? The Crown Inn, the Fetherston Arms and the Highland Drove are all recommended inns with food in the nearby villages of Kirkoswald and Great Salkeld.
