Why not try something different!

Our Tipi Tents are available from May until the end of September and have uninterrupted views of the river Eden. The Tipis are made from cotton and have a raised decking area.

We ask that no cooking is done inside the Tipi and any barbecues must be on the Grass, not on the decking.

You need to bring everything to camp but not the tent. There is an electric supply to the Tipi, but no heating or lighting is provided.

Check in from 3pm, and we ask you to leave your Tipi by 11am on the day of departure.

We would appreciate the traditional way of removing shoes when entering the Tipi, and please leave it as you found it.

Sorry no dogs or candles are allowed inside our Tipis.

This was our second visit to mains farm. The staff were just as helpful and friendly as they were first time around. Clean toilets and washing facilities, nice honesty shop and nice layout.We're also big fans of the immediate area, Lazonby and Kirkoswald are two lovely villages with nice pubs.Also ideal location for those wanting to explore the Lake District and North Pennines.Looking forward to visiting again in August.

Perfect location, great local pub and great local shop in Lazonby. Robert and Julie are lovely people and always made very welcome. This is our 12th year of staying at the Mains. Our caravan is stored there and its always waiting for us upon arrival. The pitches are excellent and close to a water tap so no need to carry water barrels over a long distance. Finally its close to Carlisle, the Solway, Hadrians wall and of course the magnificent Lake District.

Owners were extremely polite and down to earth, myself and a couple of friends were staying here as we were walking a few peaks. It has everything you could want whether you're a couple, a family with young/older children or if you are away with friends. I will definitely be returning with my wife and 2 children. Couldn't recommend it enough
