The site sits in a quiet pocket of Cumbrian farmland, where morning mist hangs low over the fields and the only interruption is the occasional bleat from neighbouring pastures.

Green Hollows welcomes campervans and caravans looking for a straightforward stopover between the Lakes and the Scottish borders — it's tucked just off the M6 near Southwaite, so useful for breakers on a longer tour or those wanting a peaceful base without the full campsite bustle. Dog owners should ask ahead about current policies. Worth checking about campfires when you arrive, as rules can vary depending on the season and ground conditions.

Facilities aren't specified in detail, so it's best to arrive self-contained and treat this as a no-frills pitch rather than a resort stop. Expect a low-key, rural feel — the kind of place where you park up, brew a pot of tea on the step, and let the quiet settle around you. Not showy, just honest Cumbrian countryside doing what it does best.

Cumbria Way

Traverses 118km of Cumbria's finest landscapes from Ulverston to Carlisle, passing Coniston Water, climbing through the Langdale valleys, and skirting Derwentwater and Bassenthwaite Lake. Terrain varies from gentle lakeside paths and farmland to steep mountain passes including High Pike and Skiddaw's lower slopes. Not suitable for buggies or young children – demands multi-day commitment, good fitness, and proper mountain gear. Dogs welcome but need stamina for the rocky, exposed sections. Reward

Info

Hadrian's Wall Path

Spans 84 miles coast-to-coast from Wallsend to Bowness-on-Solway, following England's most dramatic Roman frontier. Terrain varies from urban Newcastle stretches to exposed moorland ridges and rolling farmland—expect genuine climbs, particularly around Walltown Crags and Winshields. Entirely unsuitable for buggies; challenging for young children due to length, elevation, and remote sections. Dogs welcome but must be under close control near livestock (extensive farmland crossings). Worth it for
