Right on the canal so great to walk the dog, and a pub restaurant across the road. What more can I say, FAB.

What a lovely place, right off the motorway. Paul came to see us as soon as we arrived to make sure we knew where everything was. The showers were great, only 20p! Great for a drop off, wish we had stayed longer.

Super stopover

We stopped over here en route from Scotland to see family down south. A delay for health reasons meant we were late starting our trip, but Paul was very accommodating and made sure we had a pitch that was easy to access. He stayed in touch to make sure we knew what to do on arrival. We had to cancel our booking at the Crooklands, but managed to get a late table at the nearby Plough and the food was very good. Facilities were very good and very clean, but limited for the number of pitches. The showers were 20p for 3 minutes, which was fine. Overall a great stopover and a super site owner.

Thank you for the lovely review Matthew and it was good that you managed to make the trip. With it being dark when you arrived, you wouldn't have see the new shower, loo and laundry block that is being built at Little Acre. Once completed, it more than doubles our available facilities, but until finished, I'm leaving some pitches unsold, so that the existing loo and shower block can easily cope. Paul
Very close to M6 and J36

Small site easily accessible from M6. Toilet block has 2 toilets and 1 shower only, although they are building a second block in the next field. Showers cost 20p for 3 minutes but soap, shampoo and conditioner are supplied. Not a cheap site but the owners have added lots of nice touches. Access to canal path outside gate and hotel across the road for food and drinks. Will be back.

Thank you for staying at Little Acre and leaving a lovely review, Lesley. Regarding the existing loo and shower facilities, the ladies part of the loo block has 2 x loos and a shower and the gents part of the loo block also has 2 loos and a shower. There is also a separate loo (affectionately called "the throne room"), plus there's also another loo block onsite, which I suspect that you didn't discover during your stay. Hopefully the additional new loo, shower and laundry block will be up and running for you on your next visit. Paul
Fantastic location and pristine

Beautiful little campsite and a great location. We had a very warm welcome. The toilets and showers were spotless with lovely little touches. You've got the canal across the road, which is great for dog owners and the pub is about 100 meters away. I'd definitely recommend it and will definitely come back again.

What a find!!! This was our first trip with our new van and everything was perfect. Paul the owner was absolutely fantastic, we had an issue with our electric (us being a bit dim) but he sorted us out, nothing was a problem. The showers and toilets were amazing, super clean and warm. Overall a wonderful little site. This was our first visit but definitely not the LAST.

Lovely place - pet friendly with nice places to walk. A small, friendly site. Not far from the seaside. Clean, tidy and no issues at all! Showers 20p for three minutes and Wi-Fi available. If you want to dine out definitely book before going on holiday as we really struggled to get in anywhere as all are few and far between so very busy.
Site's response
Thank you Deborah, I'm glad that things worked out for you at Little Acre. The Crooklands Hotel that is 200 yards from us is a very popular place (always a good sign !) and I now put a direct link into my confirmations so that people can book a table before they arrive. Paul

Nice friendly welcome from the owner who explained the local area. Clean site with all the main facilities needed. Only one shower and toilet for male and one for female although a new block is nearly finished not sure how it would be if the site had lots on site. Very close to M6 so lots of background noise. Close to Kendal - could walk it but the ground at the time was very wet. Bus stop close by so you can get anywhere easily. Local pub had great food but need to book, even for midweek.
Site's response
Thank you for reviewing Little Acre on Campsites.co.uk, Lesley. We can't wait for the new shower, loo and laundry block to be completed as it is more than double the size of the one that it is replacing and once finished, we'll have 2 well sized facilities for people to use. Recommending us to others is really appreciated. Paul

Small well kept site with a great welcome from Paul, who was helpful and friendly. Good size pitch, shower facility and toilets and close to connecting routes to explore the area. Local canal walk enjoyed by our dog. Just what we were looking for and we will definitely be returning.

A great little site. The owner was extremely helpful and went out of his way to make sure he accommodated us. The site is clean and tidy and well kept. It is on a hill though, so you would need stabilisation or chokes. It has a small shower facility which is kept very clean but you need 0.20p per 3mins in the shower, which is a bit of a pain. But next time we come, I’ll be prepared! It’s a great stop just a few minutes off the motorway, so an ideal place if you’re travelling up and down from Scotland! We will most definitely be back! Thanks.
Site's response
I'm glad that your stay worked out for you and that you'd like to come back in the future Lena. The showers do take 20p for 3 mins, but we also provide complimentary, luxury shower gel, shampoo, conditioner and hairdryers. See you next time Paul p.s. I'm very surprised that you felt the need to use chocks/stabilisers on that pitch - it's something that I'd never seen used before!
Great find

A lovely little site, only 1 mile or so from the M6, but nice and quiet. Grounds are well kept, facilities are fine. Location is fab, roughly halfway between Kendal and Kirkby Lonsdale.
