Small basic site on a farm with fantastic veiws over eskdale & wasdale fells. Quiet walks for all ages.

Parkgate is a small working farm in the Western Lake District, we have a few sheep, cattle and the largest herd of donkeys in the area! We have a camping field, several static caravans and also a cottage to let. During your stay you are welcome to come and visit the farm and meet the donkeys.

The campsite has stunning views of the Eskdale fells and beyond, we are a few minutes drive to Wasdale and Wastwater which was voted best view in the British Isles.

The area has plenty for all ages, wonderful walks right from the farm, an abundance of wildlife to view, the La'al ratty narrow guage railway has a station only half a mile away and the magestic Muncaster Castle and Owlery is within walking distance.

The camping field at Parkgate Farm has one of the best outlooks in the Lake District, it is a fairly level site suitable for camping and caravans.

This site is a back to basics campsite, no frills but in a great location, facilities at the site are limited to a toilet and a tap, so dont forget to bring a washing up bowl! Or you could just eat out at one of the many good pubs in the area.

There is plenty of room for the kids to play and lots to do in the local area. We look forward to welcoming you to our farm.

Reviews of Parkgate Farm

Absolutely brilliant... Campsite basic but clean with hot water / showers & toilets. Camp fires allowed and wood available on site. Great for kids esp with the donkeys.. Many thanks to Fiona and Phil for looking after us.

Great campsite with stunning views, quite small and basic but cheap, wiith all you need close by, warm shower, toilets with views, soap and toothpaste! even on this hot sunny weekend it wasn't too busy and the farm owners were really freindly and helpful, will definately be coming back here; worth the 4 hour drive.
