About Little Acre Holiday Park
Little Acre is a family-run caravan, campervan and motorhome site suitable for those wanting peace and tranquillity on their trip away. The site is less than two miles from junction 36 of the M6 yet located in a calming rural setting, which makes it an ideal stopping off point if you are on a long North to South, South to North trip, or if you are looking for an ideal base to explore the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales. All motorhome, caravan, campervan and roofbox pitches are flat and set on hardstanding on local limestone, with 16 amp electric hook up immediately adjacent to them and reliable, strong and free WiFi included with every booking. All pitches also have a tap very close to them. Located adjacent to the Lancaster Canal, with views of the swans and wildlife, it's perfect for those who arrive on site with dogs and ideal for those who like to walk along a canal towpath and unwind. If holidaying in your tent, head to the neighbouring Little Acre Campsite!
Little Acre Holiday Park is open from 01/03 to 23/11 in 2024 and from 28/02 to 22/11 in 2025.
Facilities include two heated shower and loo blocks (the showers take 20p's), including washing up and laundry facilities. Reliable WiFi is available throughout the site.
Located across the canal bridge and within a two minute walk is the Crooklands Hotel, which serves food all day, while the nearby village of Endmoor has a bakery, etc. Milnthorpe is a ten minute drive away and has supermarkets and various takeaways. The closest shop is about 0.25 miles away and is easily accessed by walking along the canal towpath, which runs next to the site.

A great welcome email giving clean instructions of how to arrive without any misleading sat-navs. We are at the local pub and were glad that the site had advised we book ahead as many people were turned away. Lovely level pitches, good internet and very clean and nice smelling facilities. Staff were friendly. We would definitely return. Also, great very close walks along the canal.

Everything was perfect for our stay, it was very easy to book and stay. The facilities were very clean and well maintained, with some extra touches. It was perfect for us, but can imagine more showers and toilets would be advantageous in high season. The restaurant over the road had great food but you do need to book.

Hi Sophie, Thank you for choosing us for your late season visit and I'm glad that it went so well for you. Onsite we have 2 shower/loo facilities blocks at Little Ace ( i don't think that you used the "other block"), which mean that we've got plenty of capacity to cope when the season is in full swing! -Paul
Lovely site close to the motorway

Things to do on site and in the Milnthorpe area
You will find plenty of things to see and do within easy reach of Little Acre especially when it comes to playing golf in Cumbria. The area boasts a number of excellent courses including Kirkby Lonsdale, Kendal, Windermere and Grange. All of these courses can be reached within a short drive of the site.
The Lancaster Canal offers superb walks up and down the tow path for exercise. Kids also enjoy the canal and you can take a trip on the Water Witch canal boat for a few pounds every weekend for that extra relaxation.
A ten minute drive will bring you to the market town of Kendal and the entrance to the wonderful Lake District or, to the south, the entrance to the Yorkshire Dales. The Lake District National Park has some of the most beautiful scenery in the UK and can be reached easily by car, boat or walking up the many hills for an active challenge.
Just a few miles away from the site you will find Holmescales Activity Centre where you can take part in a wide range of outdoor activities including horse riding, paint balling, off-roading 4x4s, quad biking, clay pigeon shooting and archery.
Trout and carp fishing at the Farleton View fly fishing lakes is easily arranged so please let staff know if you'd like to spend a blissful day beside the lake.
The site is within walking distance from Westmorland County Showground, which attracts over 30,000 visitors per year to see livestock shows and be enticed with local produce in the food hall.
Also fortunate to have the bar and good food at the Crooklands Hotel only 100m away.
