This is a fantastic family run park that was central to everything we wanted to do in the area. The facilities were spotless and the attention to detail unbelievable with extras provided in the showers and washrooms. The washer dryer facilities were also faultless. The pitch we had was perfect for our needs as we tow a motorcycle trailer behind the motorhome. However, looking around the site, we didn't see any bad pitches. The family who run it were so friendly and always on hand, and happy to help with any questions we had regarding the local area. This is a park that we will use many times in the future. 5 stars is a true reflection!

Hi Andrew, Thank you for the lovely review of your recent stay at Little Acre - by complete chance, the following visitor onto your pitch was a motorhome with motorbike trailer as well! Enjoy your touring and we'll see you next time. Paul & Sarah

Excellent site, well maintained and the facilities have been well thought out. Clean, very clean. Close to the Lakes and Dales and perfect for stop overs as well as longer stays. Didn't see anyone or staff on site but contact via email left instructions and left to own devices. Great site will be be back

Hi Robert, thank you for staying at Little Acre and rating your stay so highly on Campsites.co.uk. I'm sorry that I didn't get the chance to say hello - my son was playing rugby 100 or so miles away, which meant that we'd set off before you arrived and it was dark when we got back! Usually, I'm around and about all day to meet, greet, show people around and help in any way that I can. Next time around we'll be able to put faces to names! Paul.
Convenient stop over

A very convenient place to stop over on way to/from Scotland along the M6 with easy access off of the motorway. No-one to greet or book us in so we just pitched up on the space advised earlier by email. Facilities all good and clean. Unable to empty grey eater tank as slight uphill grade to the drain made this impossible. Overall, pleased with our stopover and would consider again.

Hello Don, thank you for choosing Little Acre for your stopover. On your arrival day, a family commitment 100 miles away meant that I couldn't be here when you arrived, but I'm glad that the pre arrival email including directions straight to your assigned pitch, a map of the site and details of all of the facilities at Little Acre meant that you were able to find your pitch and enjoy your convenient stopover. Paul.

We've just stayed here for 3 nights as we were visiting friends in Arnside, so it was ideal for us. It's a great little site, well kept and the owners are lovely, very helpful and friendly. The shower block is lovely and clean and has some nice little personal touches, the only draw back is there were only 2 toilets and one shower in the block we used, hence the 4 stars. Will definitely stay again when we're back in the area.

Hi Cath, thank you for staying with us and leaving such a lovely review of your stay at Little Acre. We have 2 shower and loo blocks at Little Acre and you were closest to the smaller of the two - but size isn't everything and the loos and showers would have been always available for you, without having to wait. Enjoy your (long!) trip home and it'll be lovely to host you another time. Paul.
Highly recommended

A lovely quiet site, 19 mins away from Kendal centre. With friendly hosts and spotless facilities.
Site's response
Thank you for staying with us Tracey. As well as going to Kendal, quite a few folk have a short trip to Kirkby Lonsdale as well, both are about 7 miles away. Plus on Mon-Sat you can take the bus to either place, with the bus stop being about 200 yards away. Paul

We have stayed at many sites during our travels and have had personal wet rooms allocated to our pitch in 2 of them. But the standard of Little Acre's toilet/shower facilities, laundry room and washing up area was 5 *. They were absolutely immaculate and were better than some hotels! A fairly good route to the main attractions of the Coniston & Windermere lakes, obviously driving not walking. A great pub only minutes away (walking), Paul was a great guy, he showed us around as we arrived and was always helpful. The showers were 20p and were fantastic! Thank you.

Hi Beverley, I'm glad that you enjoyed a quiet and peaceful time at Little Acre. September is a cracking time to visit the Yorkshire Dale and Lake District from us - everywhere is still open, the weather is (usually) decent and its nowhere near as busy as the Summer months. Paul.

What a lovely little site, right opposite the Crooklands Hotel and on the canal. Lovely walks in the area and ideal for dogs. The site was well maintained, the toilet blocks were immaculate (with shower gel provided too), although you'll need 20p for the shower. Highly recommended.

Very good, ease of access from the 'wonderful' M6 after long drive. It's a quiet site by the canal, with an excellent restaurant a very short walk away. It's a well laid out site, with high quality toilet blocks which were extremely clean. A slightly sloping site, but ramps were provided to level up. We had a lovely email before we arrived which meant we 'knew' the site before arrival. Paul the owner was very helpful. We will be back.

A very nice site and the best facilities I have ever seen. My only concern was the couple next to us allowed their dogs to roam free. We had our dog and he was always on a lead on the site. Other than that, it's a top site and a credit to the owners.

First class, near junction 36 M6, a great place for a stop over or a visit for a week about 6 miles away from Kendal. The site is well maintained and the owner is very helpful, the toilet and shower blocks were recently upgraded. I only stayed a few days, but were thinking of going back next year for a better look around the area.

Lovely, clean, quiet site. Within walking distance to a couple of pub/restaurants (one just opposite, the other about 3 mile away). Excellent, free WiFi. No facilities for young children on site, but within easy reach of Jendal and Southern Lakes.

Hello Sarah, Thank you for the recommendation on Campsites.co.uk following your recent visit and I'm glad that you enjoyed your time with us. Paul & Sarah p.s. as the vast majority of our visitors don't have small children, we don't off any facilities for tinies and don't have any plans to add any in the future.
