Welcome to Parkgate Farm where you can enjoy a very relaxed stay. There is no reception/office on site and we leave you to your own devices but are always available by phone if you need assistance with anything. Our wardens Bruce and Sandy live on site and are always on hand and Rachel and Nick live in nearby Wasdale with their children.

Parkgate Farm Holidays provides a peaceful farmstead site with a few sheep and friendly donkeys at the foot of the Eskdale and Wasdale valleys in Cumbria's Western Lake District. You've got easy access to the fells directly from the property, and there are also several good west-coast beaches within ten minutes' drive. There's a heritage steam railway line that runs near the farm, and there are several popular visitor attractions within easy reach such as Muncaster Castle, Beacon Museum and The Rum Story. Harter Cottage is a place where you can be truly at one with nature.

You will find yourself surrounded by nature amongst the fells but also close to the coast where you'll find golden beaches. The Bower House Inn is a good pub nearby, you'll find a well stocked shop in Gosforth as well as our pizzeria, The Wild Olive and there is a petrol station in Holmrook.
