A note from the site themselves...

Our site is located on Millom Pier, a historic landmark built back in 1866 as a port for iron ore and passenger transportation. The pier was vital in shipping iron ore from Hodbarrow Mines and being a terminal for ferries to the Isle of Man.

Eventually, the decline in iron ore demand led to decreased activity and eventually the shutting down of the pier. In the early 1990s, the pier underwent restoration to preserve its character and transform it into a recreational facility.

Fast forward to now, it has become a spot for locals and visitors, providing great views, fishing, and more. We look forward to you coming and enjoying it for yourselves, Lea

This is an amazing site to stop. Louise is an excellent host and goes out of her way to make sure you enjoy your stay. The site was perfect for us and the amenities are excellent and clean. Right next to the beach and some lovely walks, I highly recommend.

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2024

This is a hidden gem of a place. Unbelievably peaceful and tranquil. Some photos gave me the impression that it was just an old junk yard that you can camp on, but nothing could be further from the truth when you get there. The views are stunning and when the tide goes out the empty estuary is just so interesting to look at. At the end of the site is a walk down to a beach with sand that has just been taken off a desert island. Only gave 4 stars for facilities as there is no hook-up and showers, which didn't bother us, but some people might not like that. The toilets were amazingly clean, as was the site.

Site's response

Thanks. It does say on the listing that there are no showers or electric.
