Lanefoot Farm Campsite and Glamping
Welcome to our Lake District Campsite in Thornthwaite
Lanefoot Farm Campsite is a peaceful site in a picturesque setting, between Bassenthwaite Lake and Derwentwater, with panoramic views of the surrounding fells. We welcome tents, campervans, caravans and motorhomes.
Campsite Facilities & Features
- Showers with underfloor heating
- Toilets freshly decorated
- Washing-up sinks in a warm room
- Electricity Hook Up points for both caravans and tents
- Hardstanding Pitches for campervans, caravans and motorhomes
- Information Room with local maps and leaflets
- Drying Room for after those wet days on the fells
- Small Shop where we sell all the breakfast essentials sourced from local suppliers, as well as marshmallows for the campfires!
- The Campsite Layout
- The Campsite has 2 main fields, which are both approximately 2 acres in size. The larger Open Field has been divided by a fence and hedge, with tents to the top and caravans below.
The Meadow Field has some mature tree screening, and is divided by the meadow flowers and grasses which grow there. It is a more secluded camping area, with views towards Skiddaw, Barrow and the Helvellyn range.
The Open Field has views towards Catbells, Skiddaw and Lord’s Seat. There is a fence across it to divide the caravan pitches from the grass pitches for tents. We have planted a native species mixed hedgerow along this fence. The ‘new’ field at the top of the Open Field is a good size, and is perfect for camping. This camping field has been very well received, and the hedgerow is now quite established.
