King Garth

1. King Garth

100%
(9)
56km from Wasdale · 1 unit · Glamping
Built in 1733, King Garth is also known as The Old Customs House, reflecting its role in these fraught times of smuggling. Its strategic position on the banks of The Eden served as the perfect lookout for a bailiff employed by Carlisle Corporation to protect the very important salmon fishery. The plaques on the building which commemorate the visits by Mayors date back to the 1700s. These visits no doubt involved indulgent banquets centring around freshly caught salmon I grew up on the opposite side of the river. On family walks along the Eden I was always fascinated by the house on the other side sited in such an amazing position. In 2010, when I returned to Cumbria I was amazed to hear that this house was for sale. It was a ruin and everyone told me I was mad..... I probably was a little! But I soon realised that I wasn’t alone in my love of this house, everyone I met from the surrounding villages had a tale to tell about this iconic place. King Garth is for sharing - with locals, (we have an annual barbecue), with wildlife and with people like you. The aim when renovating King Garth was to celebrate and embrace its history. King Garth is off grid and has no running water. It is furnished in a style to reflect its history. It isn’t everyone’s ‘cup of tea’: you have to drive a mile down a muddy lane, there is no hot shower, no electric lighting, and a compost toilet. BUT we offer beautiful evenings of candle light, log burner, hot tub under the stars and bathing in the river. My priority with King Garth and the land attached was to manage in a way to protect the abundant wildlife. There are also alpacas who you can look after during your stay. You will be astounded by the din the birds make at dawn and dusk! Inside the house there is an owl box where one summer a pair of barn owls successfully raised chicks. Since then a kestrel frequents the box and has twice laid there. This part of the Eden is tidal so both estuarine and river species co exist. Kingfishers and otters are often spotted And even the occasional seal! Kinggarth comes with fishing rights and if you want to fish this can be arranged with the host. The bird feeders are frequented by tree sparrows, yellow hammers, wood peckers, nut hatches and in winter red poll.

*PLEASE NOTE THE CABIN IS AVAILABLE FOR MIDWEEK AND WEEKEND BOOKINGS. CAMPING WILL RETURN IN SPRING 2026.* Cleghorn Farm is a mixed farm just north east of the market town of Lanark.

The fields are grazed and cultivated but the woodlands are much as they were at the end of the last ice age with spectacular walks along Cleghorn Glen with the chance to see badgers, bats, deer and all manner of birds among the towering pine and beech trees. The Mouse Water (pronounced moose) tumbles down along the edge of the farm and has some glorious pools for swimming, shallows for paddling and some spectacular water falls before it joins the River Clyde.

Where to go

Lake District National Park

Wasdale is set within Lake District National Park, England’s largest national park and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Surrounded by a series of rivers, tarns, and lakes that give the park its name, Lake District houses the highest mountains and fells in England, including Helvellyn and Scafell Pike. On-site camping options include tent and caravan pitches as well as cottage rentals. Some holiday parks are also dog-friendly with electric pitches outfitted with hookups, internet access, and showers and toilets.

Saint Bees Head Heritage Coast

The only Heritage Coast between Scotland and Wales is St Bees Head. It acts as a reserve for a variety of seabirds and is the sole breeding place in England for black guillemots. Campers can explore St Bees Lighthouse, an operating lighthouse that dates back to 1718, and enjoy rocky sandstones for bouldering and rock climbing. Along with some holiday home rentals nearby, campers can stay at caravan parks that feature separate pitches for tents and touring vehicles. Each pitch is equipped with water and electric hookups, free-to-use washroom facilities, and on-site laundry.

Solway Coast AONB

Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Solway Coast is about an hour and a half drive north of Wasdale. It comprises about 44 square miles of marshlands, coastline, field, and farmland. Walking tours give Hipcampers a glimpse of the area, from simple loops to an 84-mile trek known as Hadrian’s Wall Walk. Holme Cultram Abbey, a 12th-century monastery, dazzles with its besieged history and Cistercian design. The area offers several camping options, including caravan parks, tent pitches, and rustic cottages. Near Hadrian’s Wall, luxury glamping pods on a small farm provide campers with hot tubs, kitchens with full fridges, fire pits, and picturesque views.

When to go

Summer is a popular time to visit Wasdale because the longer days and warmer climate give campers more opportunities to explore the vast natural beauty. July is the hottest month with an average high of 16°C, while January is the coldest month with an average high of 4.9°C. Rain is common all year, even in summer months, so campers should plan accordingly no matter what time of year they visit.
