Parkgate Farm Holidays, Irton, Holmrook, Cumbria
Parkgate Farm is the perfect destination for those seeking peace, tranquillity, fresh air, and open spaces, with the added bonus of adventure. Nestled in a picturesque valley, it boasts breathtaking views of the Wasdale and Eskdale Fells. The farm offers a range of accommodations, including three luxury glamping cabins, five holiday caravans, and a cosy holiday cottage. The campsite is open from April to December, featuring electric pitches and a camping pod.
Parkgate Cabins
The two-bedroom cabins are designed with comfort and convenience in mind, featuring one double room and one triple-bedded room. Each cabin includes a shower room and an open-plan living and kitchen area, fully equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, toaster, and kettle. Outside, guests can enjoy a dining area with a provided BBQ. The cabins are fully insulated and heated, with an electric wood burner in the living area for added warmth. Positioned at an elevated location, the cabins offer stunning panoramic views of the surrounding fells, making them ideal for both families and couples.
Camping
Parkgate Farm's campsite features nine spacious camping pitches, five of which have electric hook-up. There is also one camping pod available. Campers have access to family shower rooms, separate toilets, a washing-up area, and a washing machine. Each pitch comes with parking for one car directly adjacent and a picnic bench for outdoor dining. Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome per pitch, but they must stay on their designated pitch. BBQs with legs raised off the ground are allowed, while disposable BBQs are prohibited due to fire safety concerns.
Holiday Caravans
The farm offers five fully insulated and centrally heated holiday caravans, each with a private raised decked patio that provides beautiful views of the surrounding fells. These caravans are perfect for outdoor dining and relaxation, all maintained to the same high standard.
- Whin Rigg accommodates 6 guests in 3 bedrooms (one double and two twins).
- Irton Pike and Latterbarrow both sleep 4 (one double and a small double sofa bed in the lounge area).
- Mecklin and Tinkler Craggs sleep 4 in two bedrooms (one double and one twin).
Surrounded by fields and woodlands, Parkgate Farm is ideal for exploring, playing, building dens, or simply unwinding and enjoying the local wildlife. Low-level walks and access to the high fells are easily reachable from the farm, along with bridleways suitable for mountain biking and horse riding.
A hidden gem in the Western Lakes, Parkgate Farm offers a serene retreat where the only sounds are birdsong, the rustling of trees, and the occasional bray from one of the resident donkeys.
