"Absolutely beautiful campsite, great drive to the site, miles of beautiful walking on the site and the Lowther estate."
"The location of the camp site is great if you want nice relaxing walks but not too far from Penrith town."

"A beautiful site along the River Lowther."
Cons:

"Was refused access to deliver my package and told the guest would have to come collect it from me at the gate."
"Not manned at night time so the people with fires and music weren't tended too or managed."
Value for Money

"I also thought this site was very expensive but the facilities certainly don’t account for that price."
"£4 per dog is very expensive especially when one is only 12 weeks old and tiny!!"
"Customers services reply was that the money would be lost and we are unable to carry over to a future date."
"The price was very high considering they weren’t serviced pitches and the toilets weren’t top of the range."
