Lanefoot Farm Campsite sits on farmland in Thornthwaite, Cumbria, between Bassenthwaite Lake and Derwentwater, with panoramic views of the surrounding fells. You can choose hard standing pitches for campervans, caravans, motorhomes and roof tents, grass pitches for tents, or stay in a Camping Pod or the Shepherd's Hut. On site there are showers with underfloor heating, freshly decorated toilets, a drying room, an information room and a small shop selling breakfast essentials, with campfires permitted on both fields. Dogs are welcome on a lead. The site is just half a mile from Braithwaite village and its three pubs, three miles from Keswick's shops and restaurants, and close to Whinlatter Forest's walking and mountain biking trails, with Go Ape Whinlatter only 1.1 miles away.
