Camping pod
Liked: Location excellent to explore areas nearby, really beautiful and tranquil setting. Camping pod right for four and dog but came with all sorts of extras to make the stay more than comfortable. We rarely visit places twice but this is on the list to do so. Ruth and family really lovely people and made us feel more than welcome even though me tipped up three hours late on the Friday due to late work finish. Great value for money and absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a few nights away. Like I said there were four of us plus small dog and children now 15 and 11 but we all had a great time and hope to return! 😊
Disliked: The only slight thing if being really really picky was the mattresses but this is being picky as myself and my wife have back issues. For lost this won’t be a problem though.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Tranquility, seclusion and space - the Shepherd's Hut was like our own little Apollo 11. The Hut was cosy but not in any derogatory way. It was a lovely experience and the owner (+ team) were tremendous. ...And we got really lucky with the weather...breakfast outside and evenings chilled on the terrace
Disliked: Leaving after only three nights. Funny how quickly you can get attached to somewhere.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Such a beautiful Shepherd's Hut in lovely surrounds. Everything was made up and ready for us, the hut has everything for a very relaxing stay. The location is great, on the first day, we went over the top of the Pennines to Barnard Castle, the scenery is stunning and on the second day we turned the other way and visited the lakes. The pub in Castle Carrock (Duke of Cumberland) is two minutes away and was a great find, very welcoming and the food was lovely. Highly recommend Ruth's place, one of the best places I've booked on Pitch Up!

Camping pod
Liked: We had a lovely weekend here. People were so friendly and helpful. The campsite was so peaceful and the pod was perfect just what we needed. There was a lovely friendly pub about 2 miles away and a lovely country park about 10 minutes away.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: Loved the accomodation. Everything was included. There's a burner and all the pots, pans, glassware and cutlery you will need. There was logs, matches, firelighters and kindling for the log burner. Ullswater was 30 minutes away. We had a great time. Ruth checked in with us to make sure we had everything we needed and the hut was very clean. WiFi was great too.

Shepherd's hut
Liked: We stayed in the Shepherd's Hut which was so cosy and absolutely spot on for everything. Very well thought out space and quirky decor and accessories. It had everything we needed to really chill out. We cooked there, used the outside space with the firepit and played backgammon all night with the wood burner. There's a resident owl which was soothing to hear every night. To be honest I could have stayed a week and not 3 days! Ruth was an excellent host, friendly and helpful and checked in with us now and again to make sure we were alright. Liz also stopped for a blether whilst walking the dog which was great for asking local info. The area itself is beautiful. We visited The Duke of Cumberland pub twice and that was very friendly and welcoming too. We had a great time and will definitely be back. It's a good location bearvto Carlisle for us as a half way point from Scotland to visit friends and family down south. Thanks for such a lovely stay.
