About Blaithwaite House
Ten minutes from Wigton's market town bustle, this sprawling 200-acre estate offers a genuine taste of Cumbrian country life without venturing far from your tent. The site's own two-mile walking trail winds through 50 acres of woodland – grab a map before setting off, as it's easy to underestimate the scale – while the Lake District National Park and Solway coast both lie within a 20-minute drive for more ambitious expeditions.
Back at base, there's plenty to occupy restless campers: play areas, football pitches, mini golf, and even laser tag sessions you can book ahead. Snowy the goat and resident chickens provide gentler entertainment. Reviewers consistently praise the clean facilities and helpful staff, noting reasonable prices for pitches and firewood, though with 50-200 pitches the site can feel busy during peak times. Communal fridges and freezers mean you can stock up for barbecues, or nip to one of two nearby pubs serving homemade fare – both just five minutes' drive away.

What visitors say
Had a brilliant camp and dance event at the hall. Lovely quiet camp site with very hot showers. Very helpful when the weather was not as good as it has been recently. Lovely rooms to dance in and sit around and have a social drink. Great the hall has food vans come in on Friday and Saturday evenings. I had a fabulous pizza on Saturday night . No need to cook my own food!
