Whether you're exploring the Dales or the Lakes, Little Acre Camping is ideal - only a 15 minute drive from both. Relax in the tent here and take the pooch for a stroll by the peaceful Lancaster Canal (just adjacent to site) or hop on a convenient bus to Kendal or Kirkby Lonsdale (both 15 minutes away). Just across the road, about a five minute walk away is the popular dog friendly Crooklands Hotel, with a bar and very good food served all day.

About the site
This camping base is family-run and offers a peaceful break in a rural setting, less than two minutes from the M6 with the Lake District and beautiful Yorkshire Dales both 15 minutes away. This is a nice stopping off point if you are on a long road trip, whether southbound or northbound. Tent pitches are spacious and the tent field is never overcrowded. All tents enjoy complimentary, fast and reliable WiFi and if you book an electric pitch, you'll have a 10 amp hook up too. The pitches for campervans, sprinter campervans and motorhomes are flat hardstanding pitches, with electric hook up and water adjacent to them. You can meet the wildlife along the adjacent Lancaster Canal, which is home to ducks, swans, herons and more - perhaps even cattle paddling in the canal at times! The site is dog friendly with the canal towpath making a great place for your four legged friends to stretch their legs or for humans to have a wander and unwind. There is a shop in a 24-hour petrol station and a bakery in the village of Endmoor - both are about a ten minute walk away. Please note, if in a tent, the youngest age of a camper is 12 years old and Little Acre only tales single pitch bookings. The onsite WiFi covers the entire site.

Booked last min as weather forecast was nice. Lovely little site. Very dog friendly. Great access onto the canal for a walk, good pub across the road and easy bus route into Kirby Lonsdale. Showers and toilets are beautiful and clean, also heated. The 20p for 3 mins in the shower definitely worth the money (rain fall modern shower) The wifi was very good, never lost connection! Owner was lovely and welcoming. We will most certainly be back for another weekend venture.

Friendly host, immaculate site, bathrooms/showers the loveliest I’ve seen on a campsite. Great location for access off the M6 and use as a base for exploring the South Lakes & lovely pub across the road. Highly recommend.
