Hi

I'll get rid of the Blue Face.

I've never been, but there are 3 sites HERE with a variety of reviews.

Whinfell is a superb place for camping, up a quiet country lane about 1/4 mile outside Lorton going towards Loweswater. The facilities are basic but perfectly acceptable.

I think the Wheatsheaf is in a long field at the back of the pub. I went to have a look but seemed to lack any character. Very glad I chose Whinfell, and went back for a second stay.

And Whinfell is that bit closer to the Kirkstyle Inn

If you've not been in the area before, you are in for a treat, with it being only 15 mins from the BEST part of the lakes, Buttermere, Crummockwater and Loweswater. I've stayed up there 15 or 20 times and enjoyed every trip.
