Date of Visit: May 2010 Unit:  Campervan
Reviewer: Leki styx 7 reviews from this member

 A nice quiet little site, reasonably flat, with open views over the western lake district peaks. The toilet block is small(one stall for ladies one for gents) and 1 shower. All kept spotlessly clean

This site is close to the coast and has a constant breeze so wind-breaks are a good idea. We used this as a base to visit borrowdale, loweswater, bassenthwaite, etc. Egremont is a short drive away for supplies and a decent chippie. 


Date of Visit: May 2010 Unit:  Trailer Tent
Reviewer: Pickering04 4 reviews from this member

 Decided to spend 3 nights up in Cumbria area that we have never been before. Rosegarth was a very peaceful, clean and friendly site.

Communal toilets very clean, even though only one shower, for amount of people on small field this was fine. Cost for shower is £1 but this does at least 2 people and sometimes may not have to pay as credit on meter.

Mark and Steven very friendly and want to ensure you have a nice time.

Across the road is a Garden Centre that has a lovely Cafe / Bar, this is open every day and on Friday and Saturday evenings. We were told during our visit that they are in the process of getting beer on draft which would be quite useful.

If you are looking for clean, friendly, rural and quiet break would recommend.

Be aware due to it being rural, some roads are very narrow but we did not have an issue.

Reviewer: DavidM61 1 review from this member

 Location is great, the weather behaved (crystal clear skies and sunshine)and Mark and Stephen (the owners) couldn't be more welcoming.

This is the first time in quite some years that I have been camping, and the first time ever for my wife, and Rosegarth didn't disappoint. A small and quiet site, but beautifully kept by Mark and Stephen.

There is a spotless toilet block (two toilets in it) and a shower room, although there is only one shower (which costs a £1, but that will do two people). If the site is full only having the one shower might be a problem, and we would suggest that a couple more showers are needed. Mark and Stephen are still working hard to ensure that the site is fully serviceable and well kept.

If you are looking for a tranquil and relaxing break, whether in a tent, motorhome or caravan, we have no hesitation in highly recommending Rosegarth Farm. We will definitely be going back.

Overall 9 out of 10, which would have been 10 out of 10 but for only having one shower.

Reviewer: Tci872 14 reviews from this member

 Just returned from a brilliant last minute weekend. We chose the site for its small, peaceful adult only status and it didn't disappoint. The 2 owners were very friendly and helpful, and helped with the tent in the gusty wind. The site has some shelter but expect a constant breeze. The 10 pitches were all flat, well drained and no hidden stones lurking under the grass.

The communal toilets were spotless as was the shower (cost £1 but lasted ages). Previous visitors had suggested a dish washing area so during our visit, the owners were just finishing it off. The site is in its 2nd year but there are plenty of plans and as the dish washer area suggests, any comments are taken on board.

The cafe / restaurant / bar at the garden centre just over the road was excellent for evening meals.Try the ribs.

For longer stays without hook up, be aware that there are no shaver points in the toilets or any on site freezer pack facilities.Yet, who knows watch this space, but that didn't hinder our stay one bit. We will be returning to this site soon to enjoy the stunning views in this hard to beat location. We wish Mark and Steven well in their venture.

Reviewer: Powerrod 1 review from this member

 Small site with 10 pitches, 5 of which have hook up. Communal toilet and a small shower unit (both spotless). Mark and Steve your hosts are 2 genuine, warm and friendly guys who go out of their way to make sure your stay is a good one, but they are not in your face by any means.

Singletons garden centre / nurseries across the road has a cracking restaurant which is unfortunately only open evenings on a Thursday, Friday and Saturday (but well worth a visit.

We were most fortunate to be only 1 of 2 couples on the site when we stayed and we loved the peace and quiet (although the Barn Owl screeching through the site at about 3am did frighten the bejesus out of us both).

Can I recommend this place. Yeah of course. Small, Peaceful and friendly with stunning scenery, and surrounded by horses in the joining fields. For us. Just perfect 


Popular Choice in this Area

Fisherground Campsite - Eskdale

Nestling in the beautiful Eskdale Valley close to Scafell, England's highest mountain and Wastwater, this site is a children's paradise in the heart of the Lake District. The first thing that meets you on arrival is the pond, fed by a stream and usually full of children paddling and playing on tyre rafts. The playground has zip wires, climbing frames, tyre rope-swings and adventure courses.

Grass pitches (some with EHU) for tents, motorhomes, VW-sized campervans (no caravans). Refurbished toilets, showers and laundry. Peace is the watchword on the campsite - catering mainly for families and couples with silence after 10.30pm. Don't forget your marshmallows - campfires are allowed in selected areas. Nearby shop and pub. And there's an added extra: the site sits along the route of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Steam Railway line, with it's own station. Choo Choo! Find out more here



Date of Visit: July 2009 Unit:  Tent
Reviewer: Popps100 1 review from this member

 A lovely site, clean facilities, 1 toilet, 1 shower unit (loads of hot water) These are to be upgraded to more. 8 pitches all virtually flat.

Owners very nice people. A very quiet and peaceful site.

There is a nice restaurant near by and a garden centre a bit further down the road. A five minute drive will get you to the shops where there is a Coop and many other shops

We will definitely be returning to this one.

Reviewer: Bosun749 2 reviews from this member

 We have just returned from a great stay at this site, Steve and Mark super hosts very pleasant helpful went out of there way to make you welcome and our 2 dogs. Excellent views.About 2 miles from Egremont where there is a co op lots of various takeaways ie Indian Chinese chippies etc or you have a big Morrisons in Whitehaven approx 7 miles away easy to find.

Appears to be plenty of pubs in the area most of which do food.

The site itself is fairly flat,there is one portaloo and an excellent shower.

The owners keep horses and there are sheep in adjoining fields which may not be to everybodies taste we like animals so it did,nt worry us.

We can thoroughly recommend this site and look forward to going back next year

Reviewer: Raymond0509 1 review from this member

 This is a basic site for adults only. There are only five pitches, all of which are on level grass covered ground. The shower & toilet are basic but perfectly adequate. This is the site for experienced adult campers looking for some peace.

A ten minute walk takes you down to Nethertown Railway Station where trains running alongside the coast only stop if requested to do so. Egremont, complete with ancient ruined castle, is just a few minutes away on country roads and is an ideal shopping centre. It has takeaway food and a well stocked Co-op. In the other direction are two pubs which offer first class meals, the White Mare and the Royal Oak both in Beckermet. On Wednesdays & Thursdays the White Mare offer two course meals for £10, on Fridays it is steak night and it’s all first class food.

This campsite, though basic, is the perfect place for serious campers looking for a bit of peace.

Reviewer: Davefletcher 3 reviews from this member

 My partner and I just spent 5 days at Rosegarth Farm. It is their 1st year and they are trying very hard to give a good service. The views are spectacular and the site is immaculate. There are facilities for fresh water and waste disposal. There is a basic but clean toilet and shower.
If you want a quiet rural site less than a ten minute stroll from the sea and within easy driving distance of the Lake District then this is the place to be.
