Parkgate Farm Holidays

Positiv: Just back from 3 nights camping here. Beautiful little campsite with stunning scenery. Quite remote but that’s what my wife and I enjoy. The wardens Sandy & Bruce were very friendly and helpful, the toilets and showers were very clean, and the site grounds are immaculate. We will definitely be returning.

Negativ: Nothing

Positiv: It's a farm land, off road track to it,reflecting that fact. Our pitch no.7 was spacious enough for caravan&awning. Van parked infront of caravan. We had a quite large grass patch allocated with picnic bench. So, there was a plenty privacy between us and our next door neighbour. However, to get the caravan set up, we had to push it up a little bit as incline is steep. Same coming off the pitch , steep decline. Luckily, caravan breaks held well. But as soon as you all set up, couple of bricks to straight caravan up...the views are spectacular. It's so peaceful and quiet. My humble opinion, pitch is perfect for motorhomes,tents. Caravans? Do need a little bit of elbow grease to put into it but it will worth. A large grass area in the middle of site is great for chilling, my son spent there every free time. Rolling down the hill, kicking a ball, running around. Relaxing place. You can rent bbq/log burners&buy logs on site.Smell of fire just belongs to this place. Family washrooms (3 piece bathroom) are big enough for 2 adults&child. Very clean. Water pressure just nice. WiFi provided,just doesn't reach everywhere. Short,pleasant walk path around the site. There are some (hooman)friendly donkeys in lower field. Perfect place to stay if exploring West Lakes. Drigg Beach, Ravenglass, Whiteheaven, Muncaster Castle...all within 20 minutes ish drive. "We" are keen fishing family,you see... Wardens are present on site. Friendly couple. Happy to help. I would stay there again. Maybe when rain gets warmer... .

Negativ: There was nothing to dislike. Maybe just naturally moan about...

Positiv: Couldn’t have been more welcoming 🙂 A lovely, small traditional site in its first year. Only nine tent pitches (some with EHU), plus some gorgeous funky lodges and a little cabin. It is set up more for tents and motorhomes than caravans, which is a big plus for us. Great views over Whin Rigg and up to Harter Fell and the loos and showers are spotless. A big thank you to the site wardens, Bruce and Sandy - so friendly and helpful, coming over to check everything is ok and just making it a nice place to be 🙂

Negativ: Push button shower valve! Please just change the valve to a longer shut off interval - 30 seconds would be fine, 10 seconds is ridiculous, but for the love of God… 5 seconds?! 🤷🏻‍♂️

Positiv: Personally greeted when I arrived onsite Facilities were spotless It was peaceful and quiet throughout the evening Wifi was available at pitch side

Negativ: Pitch was very muddy due to poor weather, no fault of the owners and I was advised to park on gravel which meant I didn't get stuck which I did. Would definitely look to return in the summer when dry

Positiv: Great views and facilities such as toilets and showers, went it winter time so was abit cold in them. Little football pitch with play equipment in facilities area.

Negativ: Pitch spaces were grass so we got stuck a couple times as it was abit wet. Staff helped us out so wasn't to bad. So if you have a big vehicle I wouldn't recommend parking on grass.
