Cleghorn Farm is a mixed farm just north east of the market town of Lanark. Comprised of 250 acres of fields and woodland and bounded to the south by Mouse Water, it is a beautiful spot to get away from it all without having to leave it all behind if you don't want to. The fields are grazed and cultivated but the woodlands are much as they were at the end of the last ice age with spectacular walks along Cleghorn Glen with the chance to see badgers, bats, deer and all manner of birds among the towering pine and beech trees.
The Mouse Water (pronounced moose) tumbles down along the edge of the farm and has some glorious pools for swimming, shallows for paddling and some spectacular water falls before it joins the River Clyde, all a gentle walk from the sites.

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.

Time for a slice of the simple life? Grab a peaceful Lake District pitch at Church Lane Campsite and immerse yourselves in proper scenic countryside with few distractions. This back to basics site has life’s essentials in place – in the form of drinking water, toilets and showers – but hasn’t gone overboard with other facilities, so you’ll simply be left to set up your space and soak up the gorgeous views of the surrounding countryside. Pitches here are on grass with trees around the field to provide a bit of shelter and shade – and the views are pretty much green as far as you can see. This setting gives the place a remote atmosphere that’s well suited to adventurous travellers, nature lovers and serenity-seeking couples or families. That said, it’s not actually all that remote – handily, you’ll be able to drive to Kendal in about 10 minutes for cultural attractions, shops and places to eat, and popular Windermere is about the same distance in the other direction. Closer still are a smart rural restaurant and the little village of Crook, a mile away and the home of the local pub – both excellent options for a good feed.

We stayed in the cabin . We popped some wood into the log burner on and just listened to the wood crackling away, very peaceful and relaxing. We walked the woodlands , which our dog especially enjoyed .had a bbq ( which is also provided) and put the firepit in that evening. It was bliss . Definitely be back

Cute little cabin in a very seculded spot with nature literally on the doorstep. The deer are very friendly and that was definitely a highlight. Everything you needed in the cabin for a lovely break, as long as you don't mind the short walk to the bathroom. The internet didn't work but I got great signal on my phone so wasn't an issue. There are great walks really close by. I'd definitely reccomend a stay here.

We stayed at your campsite for three nights and chose a pitch right next to the stream. We absolutely loved it! ❤️
The weather wasn’t on our side, but we actually spent all three days at the campsite without going anywhere, because we felt so comfortable and cosy there.
The showers were great, and we really liked the little washing-up area everything was clean, convenient and well thought out.
We had such a lovely and relaxing stay and will definitely come back again. We were honestly sad to leave!
One thing we were pleasantly surprised about the campsite says there is no internet, but we actually had a really good 5G signal, so we had no problems staying connected at all.
Thank you for such a lovely stay! We really enjoyed it. 😊

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Beirhope! Lynn was an absolute star who made us feel incredibly welcome straight away.
The site is only a 20min drive away from Jedburgh but feels like going into a different world. The site is so quiet and calm with beautiful hills surrounding. Lynn clearly loves her animals and the whole farm is really well kept.
Just on the drive in we saw two different species of birds of prey! Every morning we loved watching the Buzzards rise on the warming air and every evening we loved watching out for the bats and hearing out for the owls. And that's not even including the Alpacas who were a delight to watch with a cup of tea in the morning.
My sons favourite thing was the dark skies though. On a cloud free evening the stars came out and I have never seen the like of them in the UK, absolutely wonderful.
The pitches were really generous, and the facilities were clean and well maintained. With a small shop, a place to charge phones/devices and excellent WIFI near the farm house.
Location wise it's perfect for those wanting to get away from it all, but at the same time have some lovely day trips nearby. The local market towns are full of history, and the Northumbrian Coastline is only an hour away, with Edinburgh being only 1.5 hours away.
All in all this is one of the best camp sites we have ever stayed at. Well done on all the hard work Lynn!

What an excellent campsite! Lynne was so welcoming and lovely. She showed us around the site and was on hand to answer any questions, give us walking route recommendations, and make us a hot brew in a morning.
The campsite is tucked away in what feels like a different world. From the sprawling landscapes, alpaca fields and star gazing, it's definitely a special place.
The on-site shop was also a lifesaver because we were of course bound to forget cooking oil and logs for the fire.
We will definitely be back soon, thank you so much! ☺️

4 nights at Ewe Love Camping Pods
We loved our stay in Tan Pod over the weekend. It was cosy and had exactly what we needed for a comfortable stay. The shower had great water pressure and was nice and hot. The amenities were ample and the bed was really comfy. The view was gorgeous and a joy to wake up to. The grounds and surroundings are beautiful. Perfectly situated between Keswick and Penrith with a delicious farm shop 10mins drive away. We would stay here again.

Lynne and John were such lovely hosts, made us feel very welcome and made sure the kids had a great time . The pitch we had was fab, right next to the alpacas! Nice added touches with wheelbarrows to help move things to the pitch, a little hut to sit in, an honesty snack bar and supplies for a fire pit. We’ll be back!

We absolutely loved our stay here. The location was stunning, the camp kitchen and facilities were spotless, and Lynne couldn’t have been more welcoming or helpful throughout our visit. Feeding the alpacas and camp fire were a real highlight for the kids - such a memorable experience for all of us. We’d definitely come back without hesitation.

The campsite was breathtaking, peaceful, and had little noise, though it was next to a working farm where work starts after 10:00 a.m. and stops before 6:00 p.m.
It was a relaxing experience with wonderful staff, and the toilets and showers were clean; it is one of the better showers I have been to. I will definitely be going back with other freinds!
Thanks again for a wonderful camp.

Absolutely loved this last min getaway. Only decided to camp that day and my kids lived it! Lynn the host was fantastic. Views amazing. Facilities best I’ve seen on a small camp site. Perfect get away. Toasted marshmallows by the firepit, surrounded by Alpacas, goats, a beautiful horse and hills! Heaven!

We had a fabulous time on Poppy’s pitch last weekend. The facilities are excellent and Lynne is a wonderful host. The alpacas were super cute and we especially loved Harry and Houdini (the chaotic goats). There’s lots of nice walks around and you can even find some lochs to swim in. I can’t recommend it enough.
