Non-member caravan club sites in Cumbria

9 of 11 sites in the county qualify

Club sites that accept guests without a membership, usually at a higher nightly rate. Useful for a first trip before committing to a club, though on more than three or four nights the membership normally costs less than the non-member surcharge.

Towing note · Hardknott and Wrynose passes hit 1 in 3 and are impassable with a caravan — reach Eskdale from the A595 in the west. The Struggle out of Ambleside to Kirkstone is equally off limits; use the A592 from Troutbeck Bridge.
