We went to Marsh Farm and it was carnival day. The road was closed for 2 hours so we had to wait but that didn't spoil our trip. We just watched the carnival procession.
We pitched our tent in a quiet field and then went to the Carnival. Unfortunately the weather changed and we spent a very windy cold night there.
When it started to rain the following morning we thought we had better cut our stay short. There is a beach nearby which will be beautiful in the sunshine.
The South Lakes Animal Farm is not far away and in the spring season you get to hand feed the Animals.
The Village is just a walk away and because it was too windy to light our gas stove, we went to the local chippy.
You don't get many chips for £1.30 though. Very friendly Town and we will definitely be back when the weather improves.

My family have been to this site many times and if what you want is very basic camping with no clubs etc then this is the place to be. Picturesque views, great walks, loads of space for the kids to run riot and only a short walk to the beach.
Toilets and showers are available and although very basic Mary keeps them clean and tidy (pity about the concrete floor in the showers).
This is a working farm and you have to remember that, close the gates and drive slowly.
Very cheap to stay here but very relaxing place to be. The only thing that would be nice is some kind of lighting at night other than that very happy to keep going to this site.

Site is just really an open field, plenty of room for the kids to run around. Toilets basic but spotless. 1/2 mile to supermarket, 1/4 to pub, a few takeaways in the village. We never actually got to stay on the site, we arrived paid and started to try and pitch up but the wind coming off the fells was horrendous so we decided to not risk damaging our gear. We went and told the lovely old lady who owns the site we would not be staying and she promptly refunded our fees and said she hoped to see us again in better weather, which she certainly will!

We have stayed at this lovely little site on numerous occasions as it is local to visit my children.
The site is very basic, it has clean toilets, hot showers and a pot wash area. All included in the price.
At £2 per person per night plus £1 per night for the car you can't beat the value. I would highly recommend this site and we will be staying here again. There are fabulous views and there are lovely walks along the beach. Handy for the local village and the train station is less than a mile away. This is ideal for people who want to explore the picturesque North West.

We found the campsite to be ideal. The lady in charge was very helpful and apologised for the state of the toilets / wash facilities as she had not had a chance to do them yet - They were spotless. We had the pick of where to pitch our tent.
It was a very secluded and quiet site, which suited us fine, with easy access to Barrow-in-furness and a beautiful beach at Roanhead. There was no need to book in advance and we were charged just £2 per person per night and £1 for the car. Great value, great site and we will be back.

We spent a very pleasant weekend at this site and had the field to ourselves. Weather was good and we enjoyed walks along the estuary with spectacular views of the lake district as a backdrop.
We made several trips out to Lake Coniston (20 minutes drive) and swam and fished in the Lake. Also spent a day on the beach at Walney Island (Nature Reserve - North) where we swam in the sea and sunbathed in the dunes - lovely!
Would recommend this site for its peace and quiet and value for money. Facilities basic but perfectly adequate.
