Thomas shepherd's hut

Liked: Perfect. beautiful site, well maintained and has everything you need. Photos dont do it justice. each hut has its own space outside, perfect for our dogs. Little cooking shelter with gas hob.

Betty shepherd's hut

Liked: This is our 3rd year running staying at Foxwold and it was fantastic as usual. We love getting 'off grid' to relax, unwind and reset. Foxwold is set in a beautiful part of the country and it is always peaceful and tranquil. Kat and Andy are fantastic hosts, they keep the site in great condition, the huts are alway clean and comfortable and nothing is too much for them. We will certainly be back next year and for many more years to come.

Ruby shepherd's hut

Liked: Peaceful location, great hosts who were friendly, helpful with advice on where to go in local area, loved the outdoor shower and compost loos. Everything needed for a break away from it all. Great skies for star gazing around the campfire.

Disliked: A little muddy in places due to the heavy rainfall, so glad I took my wellies!

George shepherd's hut

Liked: It's a wonderful place to relax. Marshmallows were prepared in the hut and I was able to roast them on the wood stove and enjoy them. I would have liked to stay a few more days if possible. I also recommend enjoying it with your dog. Outdoor shower time is also fan. It was a little difficult on a rainy day, but interesting!

Local attractions

This site is in the sweet spot between the Yorkshire Dales, Lake District and North Pennines, all of which can be reached in a 20-minute drive or less. Stick Ullswater (30 minutes) in your satnav if you're on the lookout for sailing or canoeing on a big body of water; there's also a 20-mile long walking route that encircles this loveliest of lakes, with several pubs and hikers’ cafés to be found along the way. History-hunters may well want to spend a spell at Lowther Castle (20 minutes), a cracking country house with landscaped gardens. A niche but interesting option is to take a trip to Kendal Quaker Tapestry Museum (35 minutes) to see its 77 intricately embroidered panels. In the event that the kids come down with a case of museum fatigue, a trip to the movies and live shows at the Rheged Centre (20 minutes) may well be just the job. The World of Beatrix Potter (50 minutes) is another safe bet for younger tots, while more mature teens may favour a high trees jaunt at Go Ape Grizedale (an hour and 10 minutes).
