Small certificated location near Penrith with shower facilities and space for a handful of pitches.
About Town End Cottage Certificated Location
Town End Cottage Certificated Location is a small RV park near Penrith in Cumbria, set up to take a limited number of motorhomes or caravans. It sits at Laithes, a rural spot in the northern Lake District foothills.
The site has showers on site. Being a certificated location, it operates under a specific exemption and takes only a small number of pitches, so it is not a full-scale campsite with the range of facilities you would find at a larger park. This makes it a practical stop for those passing through the area rather than a destination in itself.

What visitors say
Lovely CL tucked away in the quiet Cumbria countryside but close enough to Penrith for a fabulous afternoon out and also further afield up the Eden Valley or west to the lakes. Pitches are flat and spacious enough and the surrounding views are very picturesque. Excellent 3 night break and book marked as a favourite on the clbooking app. Well done Annette and Ian

Our favourite CL in the Lakes, always a friendly welcome, peace and tranquility, a hidden gem. Specious pitches, always immaculate.

It's a good stopping off point or ideal spot for starting to explore the lake district. About 3.5 miles from Penrith so very easy to nip into town for shopping or a take away. Pub not too far away, about a mile, which does decent grub and beer but doesn't allow dogs. Site itself is tidy and level and has electric hook up and water but nothing else, price reflects this and we will happily use it again for a night or two.

Very convenient location to M6 and lakes. Very peaceful and spacious grass site with friendly hens.
