The Farmer's Field at Lowick Green

10 units ¡ Motorhomes, Tents2 acres ¡ England
Set amidst 6 acres of land around our community pub, our dog and family-friendly camping area is sustainably managed for biodiversity and surrounded by hedgerows. Well away from surrounding roads, and just a short, level walk from our carpark, you will enjoy stunning views up the Crake Valley towards the fells. Enjoy a simple, no frills stay within a few minutes stroll of our historic pub, with its 16th century bar serving local beers and wonderful food. Our cafe is a great stop-off for coffee and cakes, and our outdoor wood-fired oven serves unforgettable pizza. Our pub and cafe are open Thursday- Sunday and we only accept bookings during this time. The Farmer's Field is ideally located as a base from which to explore both the South Lakes and West Cumbria, or perhaps as a stop en route further north.

King Garth

1 unit ¡ Glamping2 acres ¡ Carlisle, England
Built in 1733, King Garth is also known as The Old Customs House, reflecting its role in these fraught times of smuggling. Its strategic position on the banks of The Eden served as the perfect lookout for a bailiff employed by Carlisle Corporation to protect the very important salmon fishery. The plaques on the building which commemorate the visits by Mayors date back to the 1700s. These visits no doubt involved indulgent banquets centring around freshly caught salmon I grew up on the opposite side of the river. On family walks along the Eden I was always fascinated by the house on the other side sited in such an amazing position. In 2010, when I returned to Cumbria I was amazed to hear that this house was for sale. It was a ruin and everyone told me I was mad..... I probably was a little! But I soon realised that I wasn’t alone in my love of this house, everyone I met from the surrounding villages had a tale to tell about this iconic place. King Garth is for sharing - with locals, (we have an annual barbecue), with wildlife and with people like you. The aim when renovating King Garth was to celebrate and embrace its history. King Garth is off grid and has no running water. It is furnished in a style to reflect its history. It isn’t everyone’s ‘cup of tea’: you have to drive a mile down a muddy lane, there is no hot shower, no electric lighting, and a compost toilet. BUT we offer beautiful evenings of candle light, log burner, hot tub under the stars and bathing in the river. My priority with King Garth and the land attached was to manage in a way to protect the abundant wildlife. There are also alpacas who you can look after during your stay. You will be astounded by the din the birds make at dawn and dusk! Inside the house there is an owl box where one summer a pair of barn owls successfully raised chicks. Since then a kestrel frequents the box and has twice laid there. This part of the Eden is tidal so both estuarine and river species co exist. Kingfishers and otters are often spotted And even the occasional seal! Kinggarth comes with fishing rights and if you want to fish this can be arranged with the host. The bird feeders are frequented by tree sparrows, yellow hammers, wood peckers, nut hatches and in winter red poll.
