The full story

About Lazonby Campsite

Lazonby Campsite is a small, peaceful base on the edge of the village, close to the River Eden and immediately beside Lazonby Outdoor Swimming Pool.

There are just 10 electric hook-up pitches for tents, caravans and campervans, so it feels much more intimate than a large holiday park. Facilities include toilets, hot showers, washing-up facilities and chemical disposal. Families also have the community play area between the campsite and pool.

Why stay here?

The location is the real strength. You can walk into Lazonby, reach the Settle to Carlisle railway station on foot and use the site as a base for Long Meg, Lacy's Caves, Penrith and the wider Eden Valley.

Swimming

The neighbouring outdoor pool is a separate attraction and swimming admission is not included with a campsite pitch. The pool itself is seasonal, so check opening dates if a swim is part of your plans.

Booking

The campsite normally runs from Easter until the end of September. The official site says bookings should be made online in advance.

The Cumbria Guru verdict

Our local note

A cracking little option if you want a quiet Eden Valley pitch rather than a big commercial campsite, especially when the outdoor pool is open.
