View on Google MapsPhoto: Lowside Farm
Herdwick House is a converted barn with everything you need to cook, eat and sleep comfortably for a group. The kitchen has an electric cooker, dishwasher, microwave and fridge-freezer. Downstairs there's a living room with a smart TV, a bedroom with two single beds, and a walk-in shower room. Upstairs are three further bedrooms: two with double beds and one with three bunks. The second bathroom has both a bath and shower. Heating, electricity, bed linen, towels and wi-fi are all included in your stay.
The property sits on the lower slopes of Blencathra in the North Lakes, between Penrith and Keswick. You're well positioned for walking and cycling across the surrounding fells, or for reaching Keswick's restaurants, shops and attractions within six miles. A pub is less than a mile away. There's private parking for three cars on site, and you have the whole place to yourselves. One dog can stay free of charge, though it should be kept on a lead in this sheep-farming area. No smoking inside.

What guests say
This is a hidden gem. We stayed in one of the camping pods, which are a great place to be in. The location is great for hikers as there are loads of Wainwrights nearby. Highly recommend. We will be back. And we are back!!

Just arrived back home after a week at lowside farm, we stayed in Coombe beck pod. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the pods are cosy and well heated due to underfloor heating, they are compact but have everything you need for a comfortable stay, shower is warm and spacious, hot water from tap is boiling, could probably have made a tea with it (they have put signs up for this but be warned) View from the pods is fantastic with gorgeous sunrises every morning. Many reviews have commented on the proximity of the A66 to the pods, yes the road noise is a consistent drone but not something that bothered me or my wife, in the summer if you had to have windows open I could see it being somewhat annoying. The only slight negative is the sensor on the bathroom light is a bit weird, it would come on in the night when no one was in the bathroom, either it's a bit faulty or a ghost was having a poo. Gravel path to pod isn't that steep so not really a problem. Overall great break would definitely stay again 😁

A great place to stay, with a choice of Bunk barn, Cottage and Glamping pod accommodation. Convenient for Keswick but we use it as a base for Cycling the local trails.

We enjoyed our stay here! The pods are great, they have a sofa, kitchen area, bed and bathroom all rolled into one. The place was nice and clean. The only thing I will say is if you're looking for a quiet time, there is a road right nearby which isn't the camp's fault, but just be aware if you're expecting quiet. If that doesn't bother you then great, I'd highly recommend!
