A camp site billed as an ideal “lifestyle business” for those seeking to quit the rat race is for sale with a price tag of £1.2 million.

Lanefoot Farm is a 4.8-acre touring and camping site at Thornthwaite, near Keswick, with panoramic views to Skiddaw and the Helvellyn range.

It includes 12 touring and 40 camping pitches, three camping pods, a shepherd’s hut, vintage caravan and site shop.

It also features a four-bedroom owner’s farmhouse with a one-bed letting holiday apartment and outbuildings.

The specialist parks division of real estate advisor Colliers International is handling the sale on behalf of the owners, Helen and Gareth Davies, who developed the site from scratch a decade ago.

Robert Smithson, a surveyor with Colliers, said: “Lanefoot Farm provides an excellent opportunity to acquire an already successful lifestyle business in one of the most popular tourist destinations in the UK.

“The property comes with an ideal family home and the potential to develop further with additional planning consents in place.”
