Buying a lodge here
You will know the price before you visit.
The two-bed Atlas Jasmine is £124,995. The three-bed Hawthorn Blackthorn is £159,995. Both are new, furnished and built to BS 3632, the standard for a holiday lodge.
The annual site fee is owner to publish. We will tell you what it covers and how it is reviewed, on paper, before you pay a deposit.
This is a second place, not a home. Holiday lodges cannot be lived in full time, here or anywhere else in Cumbria. We say that early because some parks do not.

What goes wrong elsewhere
We have heard the stories. Fees that go up every year, with nothing new to show for it. A lodge worth nothing when the licence runs out. “Upgrade or leave.” “It will pay for itself.” Then the park buys it back for a fraction of what you paid. New owners, new rules.
Here is how we do things instead.
In writing, before a deposit

Seasonal pitches
Set up once. Come when you like.
A season on a serviced pitch is Price, owner to confirm. Electric is metered or included, owner to confirm.
Every pitch is hard standing, gravelled, level and drained, with room for the car alongside. Water, waste, a 16 amp bollard and a TV point on each one. Whether the awning can stay up between visits: owner to confirm.
The shower block has underfloor heating. People who stay here keep saying it is the best they have seen. That is their line, not ours.

In their words
“Around 20 huge fully serviced pitches. Fabulous view across the A66 and beyond. Owners are lovely and very helpful.”
Podbods, ukcampsite.co.uk, August 2017“Lovely and quiet. Pitches are huge, easily taking caravan along with the car. No play park so better suited to adults.”
NMack, ukcampsite.co.uk, September 2016“We have been here on a fully serviced seasonal pitch for now 4 months. A very peaceful site. Very happy here.”

Asked on every viewing
Four straight answers.
Can we live in the lodge full time?
No. Holiday lodges sit on land with holiday planning permission, so they cannot be anyone's main home. The park is open through the winter for stays, not for living. Read the longer answer.
How long is the licence, and what happens at the end?
Licence length, owner to confirm We put the length and the end terms in your agreement before you pay anything. The licence, explained.
Can we pay in stages, or part exchange?
Finance, deposits and part exchange, owner to confirm Finance, deposits and part exchange.
What if we want to sell later?
Resale terms, owner to confirm We will never promise you a resale value. We will tell you the rules before you buy. Selling your lodge later.

Worked out on 11 September 2026 with OpenStreetMap routing (OSRM), driving, clear roads, from postcode CA11 8SR. Traffic adds time. Newcastle is routed over Hartside; most people take the A69 and allow about an hour and a half.

Lowther Castle and Penrith
Gardens, a café that does breakfast, and the best play area for visiting grandchildren for miles. Penrith itself is under three miles: Booths, Sainsbury's, a Monday market, the station on the West Coast line. Penrith, from here.

Ullswater
Pooley Bridge is the near end: steamers, a pub, the path along the eastern shore. Park at Pooley Bridge or Glenridding, not on the lane between. Ullswater from here, month by month.

Aira Force
The waterfall walk is half an hour on good paths. The National Trust car park fills by eleven on a Sunday in summer. Go early, or go in February and have it to yourself. Aira Force, the practical bits.
