Little Acre Holiday Park is just a 15-minute drive from the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales National Parks. This dog friendly touring park is adjacent to the tranquil Lancaster Canal, ideal for dog walking and relaxing. Kendal and Kirkby Lonsdale are close by and accessible by a bus stop 100m away. Good food and drink from the pub at the Crooklands Hotel is less than 100m and always popular (booking recommended).

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Motorhome and Campervan PitchesJul 2022

Great campsite - very friendly owner. Everything has been thought of from supplying cables for hook up to products in the showers, really great. Location is gorgeous - just off the M6 but a million miles away from the hustle and bustle. There’s a lovely canal towpath to walk along, you can hire kayaks from further down the canal; there’s a nice pub with decent food across the road and South Lakes riding club is very close by, horse shows every weekend. Facilities are immaculate, pitches are serviced as soon as previous guests leave. There’s a pizza man every Friday night which is a great idea, plus a local ice cream van called on Saturday afternoon. Really can’t think of anything negative to say - gorgeous place.

Stayed here as a stopover on our way to Scotland. Loved it, so friendly, clean, lovely dog friendly pub nearby and a pop up pizza takeaway. Really tranquil.

Single Axle Caravan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJul 2022

Paul, the proprietor, is a very friendly and helpful guy to whom nothing appears too much trouble. We booked the site back in February and were planning to spend the weekend with friends who own a Sprinter Type Motorhome. Regrettably, the Motorhome was stolen a couple of weeks before the planned trip and we considered having to cancel. However, thanks to Paul's ongoing communications, proactivity and flexibility, he went the extra mile by organising pitch changes, such that our friends could erect a tent next to our Caravan, thus saving a much anticipated and needed weekend away. The site is neat, well kept and compact with very clean and adequate facilities. It is also very close to the M6 and A65 which makes it handy for places such as Milnthorpe, Arnside, Silverdale and Holme whilst Kendal, Kirkby Lonsdale and Grange are not too far away either. Friday pizza night on-site was a welcome surprise and the Crooklands Hotel which serves excellent food is only about 200m from the gate. All things considered, Little Acre is great little site in a convenient spot with cracking proprietors and is well worth a try. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Site's response

Thank you for the lovely review Alistair. I'm glad that it all worked out well in the end - what you didn't say was that the goodwill, flexibility and "can do" approach from yourself and your friend helped me enormously to do what I did. Paul

Great little site

Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Small PitchJul 2022

Great stay at a lovely site. A nice pitch and easy to get to, close to the M6. If I was to be fussy maybe more than 1 shower and 1 toilet was needed for the gents on the motorhome/ caravan pitches. But that did not distract from our stay and would definitely like to return sometime.

Site's response

Hello John. Thank you for your lovely review and recommendation. We agree with you you that extra showers and loos for that part of the site would be appreciated and the good news is that we have recently got planning permission to add a new shower, loo and laundry block - with the work due to be done when the site closes for Winter. Fingers crossed that all will be in place for the 2023 season. Paul & Sarah p.s. there is an additional larger shower and loo block on site for people to use as well.

The site is of high standard. Very friendly management, who can't do enough for you. Would highly recommend. I will definitely will come here again. Very safe and peaceful site. Only downside was only one shower, but doesn't really affect you in a caravan.

Site's response

Hi Wendy. I'm glad that you enjoyed your stay with us at Little Acre. The good news is that we have a couple of shower/toilet blocks onsite and the even better news is that we've recently been granted planning permission and for next season, we'll have a brand new & much larger shower and loo block. Plus, for the first time, laundry facilities. Fingers crossed, they'll be in place for your next visit. Paul & Sarah

Used this campsite as a staging point in my trip from Devon to Scotland. The site is very well set out and when booking the information provided made arrival very easy. I will probably use it again when visiting the Scotland of the Lake District.

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitch - Slight SlopeJun 2022

This was our first time at Little Acres and we have already booked out next stay! The location is great for us and the directions were very helpful. The pitch we had was as described. The hosts were welcoming and available if needed. The facilities were very clean and I noticed they were being checked frequently. Nice extras such as dog treats, bags and board games available if needed. Really good that as our pitch was a slight slope a pair of levellers had been left should we require. Really handy for canal path - great for exercising the dogs, and the nearby pub was great too.

Hi Alexia. Thank you for your lovely review and recommendation - and also for your repeat booking. Paul

Very welcoming owners. Nothing too much trouble. Toilet and shower block very clean with little extras normally just found in a hotel. We couldn't start our break on the day we booked due to a family problem but owner happy moved the stay back a day. So we are now here on Friday night and can enjoy the pizza night.

Thank you for the lovely review Thomas. It wasn't a problem to adjust your booking and I'm glad that things have worked out well for you. Enjoy your pizza tomight. Paul

We've been looking for a place on the way back from Scotland for ages now, this is perfect! Quiet, minutes off the motorway, minutes from a cracking pub and all the facilities we need to close down the campervan for a week, such as chemical toilet disposal etc. Friendly welcome when we got there. See you again soon!

Hi Katy. I like the idea of being described as "spot on"! Here's to your next visit. Paul

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesJun 2022

We had a super stay at this little gem of a site, with my wife and my daughter's corgi. The owners couldn't have been more helpful and informative. We had a bus ride (with the stop just 10 seconds away) to Kirby Lonsdale for a meal and a few beers, then returned for a beer in the local pub (again just outside the campsite). The toilets and showers were immaculate, the pitches and hook-ups perfect, and overall we had a 5 star stay. Thanks to Paul and his family for such a warm welcome, and thoroughly enjoyable short break.

Site's response

Hello Mark. The 3 of you managed to pack a lot into your 1 night stay at Little Acre! It was lovely hosting the 2 of you (plus the corgi of course, who is gorgeous) and hopefully we'll be able to do that again in the future. Best, Paul & Sarah
