A great place to relax

This was our third stay here and we absolutely love it. The site is a perfect location to relax amongst peaceful surroundings. The grounds are well maintained by the very helpful, friendly wardens Mick and Carol. There are plenty of walks surrounding the site where you can enjoy the bird life and Red squirrels. There is also plenty to see not too far away including Hadrian's Wall and the Solway Aviation Museum at Carlisle airport. Looking forward to returning soon.

Wet, wet, wet!!

Our 7th visit to this site and whilst the weather was disappointing, relentless heavy rain at times, the wardens were welcoming and apart from the flooded pitches, the site was colourful and well maintained. Since our last visit, the service points have been covered with gazebo type structures and were very much appreciated to shelter under whilst doing the water / waste etc. in the inclement weather. The MH service point has also moved and is far more user friendly. We walked to the nearest village of Cotehill as we had booked a table for tea at The Greyhound but alas it was closed which surprised us for a mid Saturday afternoon and with nothing else to do, we cancelled our table and went back to the site. I believe the pub does great food and is dog friendly but for future reference, it obviously has limited opening hours. Re other reviews stating no facilities block, the webpage does mention this and therefore shouldn't surprise anyone. I never use facilities blocks anyway but if one was to be built at Englethwaite, the prices would go up. I value these sites as I am not paying for something I don't use, keeps the cost down and means I can have a few extra nights away. Washrooms in vans shouldn't be ornaments and at least I know mine has been looked after and cleaned thoroughly and I don't have to share it! Thank you kindly wardens for a lovely weekend despite the weather, we will be back.

Glad to be back.

Stayed here again for a couple of nights to break the journey to Scotland but it always feels so homely. plenty of walks for the dogs and views across the hills. The site is always immaculate and a credit to the wardens.One of my "go to " sites.

Charming

Second visit to this tranquil site, no facilities but we were on a service pitch so no big deal. Beautiful setting amongst trees in glorious countryside. They have a red squirrel hide but we found we could watch them on the ground and in the trees from our caravan. Lovely friendly wardens who do a good job of keeping the place spotless.

Perfect

Another perfect stay, five days of relaxation, one of my favourite sites to visit, Mick & Carol keeping the site immaculate and helping all guests, whether it be trouble with their electrics or opening stubborn jar lids and most importantly a friendly word at every opportunity. the spring weather did not mar the walks into the woods or from seeing the abundant wildlife, Thank you again for a perfect break

Another relaxing break

Another five days of total relaxation, what a fabulous site, one day of sporadic rain, four days of dry November weather, clean and dry enough to walk round the lakes and forest twice a day and admire the lovely new bench that was made by Jason & Yvette (neighbours of the site) plenty of hard work for the excellent managers Mick & Carol who keep the site immaculate but no matter how busy always have time for a friendly chat. Thank you so much and roll on next March when the site re-opens.

Ideal for our short stay to show our puppy at The Border Terrier Clubs national open show

A beautiful tranquil site with excellent dog walking facilities. We will definitely be returning for any shows we are exhibiting in in future in the wider Cumbria area. We will recommend the site to other dog show enthusiasts who find travelling to shows in the area in just one day too stressful.

Beautiful site for a Relaxing break.

This is the second time we have stayed at Englethwaite Hall as its a convenient site halfway between our home in the Highlands and our family in the Westcountry. We received a warm welcome upon arrival and chose our pitch and enjoyed our time there in a most relaxing way. There are no toilet and washroom facilities and no parks. However, my granddaughter enjoyed walking through the woods to the near by lakes and seeing some wildlife and horses on the way. This is a relaxing site where you can kick back and read a good book. Its all about tranquility. I think this site is suitable for couples and families who enjoy nature and their surroundings. Englethwaite Hall wouldn't suit kids looking for parks, wanting to kick football's about or want to ride around on electric scooters. Its a bit off the beaten track but you will receive a warm welcome when you get there, and there's a small shop which stocks a few essentials and ice lollies.

Perfect

From the perfect floral display upon arriving at the reception, to the friendly hardworking wardens who do an incredible job keeping the site immaculate, my five day stay again was perfect, this site is worth so much more than an overnight stop when on a long haul trip. Definitely time to sneak in a couple of more visits before the end of this sites season. Thank you

A very pleasant return.

This site is definitely one of my favourite on the entire network. The location and the surrounding area is just stunning, especially when (like me) you get the weather. Armathawaite is a lovely close village, as is Wetheral, and both offer great walking along the River Eden. Coombs Wood is a great place to walk the dogs near Armathwaite. The site is beautifully maintained and the display of flower baskets and containers all around the site, especially at the Reception building, are amazing. The Site Staff really know what they're doing here! The Staff were very welcoming. No facilities block which really appeals to me as it makes for a very peaceful site, and pitches are arranged in amongst varying areas of the grounds. A great dog walking field on the site, and direct access to High Stand Forest from a gate on the site. Thanks for a great few nights!
