Hello

We are looking for sites around N Lancs/S Cumbria/N Yorks border. We have VW campervanss and want somewhere that isn't full of kids and entertainment (we can make that ourselves!)  Nothing too fussy and manicured...any ideas?

Thanks

Victoria

Hmmm, we have two kids so tend to go to family sites really. Have you looked at the Seacote Caravan Park in St Bees? I know people there use the Seacote Hotel at the other end of the seafront, but there is no entertainment on the actual site itself. It`s right on the seafront and you should be able to get in. It`s not quite S Cumbria tho.

There is also Fisherground at Eskdale but that is used by families and gets full fairly quickly in good weather.

PS In case you wanted EHU, I do know the Seacote has limited availability, so you would have to phone and check and Fisherground has no EHU until near the end of August..................I know, I checked!

Thanks for the info. We don't use EHU and those sites are just that bit too far for a quick weekend away with friends, but I'll bear them in mind for another time!

Cheers

I did wonder if they wouldn`t be a bit far for you. Worth looking at for a longer stay though in the future.

Hi Vicster

Have you looked at Gibralter Farm Silverdale Nr Carnforth, I dont know whereabouts you are in N Lancs, but this is a basic site, with woods, walks, 1 mile to village. Worth a look.

Is very nice, might have some kids on tho, try Condor farm in the same village, doubt that will have any kids on, and as you come in to Dent from the M6 a farmer lets folks camp on his land.

Hi TomnGill

We ended up in Dent at Conder Farm and it was fantastic! Exactly what we were looking for; the most beuatiful views, not too busy (but the folks who were there were friendly) and the cooked breakfast in the farm was a bonus!

We will return....thanks to everyone for their suggestions.
