Meathop Fell Caravan and Motorhome Club Site

Alan Rogers Review

Peaceful Meathop Fell Caravan and Motorhome Club site, just outside pretty Grange-over-Sands, is thoughtfully laid out with separate pitching areas attractively divided by shrubs and grass. The site is an ideal base to launch your exploration of North Lancashire and the beautiful Southern Lake District. Brockhole, the National Park Visitor Centre, is a good place to start your exploration as it holds an enormous collection of information, books and audio/visual material about the Lakes under one roof.

The site is open all year and has 117 grass/hardstanding pitches all with 16 amp electricity. The entire area is a walker's paradise with its scenic beauty. Literary associations with famous artists are everywhere - from Wordsworth at Dove Cottage in Grasmere to Beatrix Potter at Sawrey.

Another interesting excursion for the artistically inclined would be the Potter Gallery in the Main Street at nearby Hawkshead. The site also gives you easy access to fun water activities at Windermere plus sailing, canoeing and windsurfing at Coniston. In addition, plenty of flat cycling can be enjoyed nearby. If you fancy a change of scene then head to the seaside resort of Grange-over-Sands, perfect for a stroll along the promenade, dining and shopping.
