Perched in the middle of this green and pleasant valley and surrounded by towering mountains is the church of St Mary in Longsleddale. If it looks familiar, it’s because Longsleddale was the inspiration for Greendale, the fictional home of Postman Pat and his black and white cat. Although there is no postmistress Mrs Goggins, or local handyman Ted Glen on hand to avert any mail-related disasters for visitors this summer, the well-appointed Community Hall next door means that you can cook your own locally-produced fayre as early as you like in order to get out and enjoy the Cumbrian countryside.

Baysbrown Farm Campsite is located in the village of Chapel Stile at the entrance to the Great Langdale Valley in the heart of the Lake District. We are a working Lakeland sheep farm with an area set aside for camping. We like to be pretty casual about camping and operate on a first come first-served basis - Turn up and pick your spot. 

There are no set pitches. Being in a valley bottom means we are exposed to the elements and it can be very wet and windy if we get a typical British summer. We want you to come along and enjoy the area when the weather suits offering flexibility and spontaneity.

The views from the campsite are spectacular and the valley is a superb location for those that love the great outdoors. It is a perfect base for walking, climbing, bouldering and ghyll scrambling. Run on the trails or fells swim in the tarns and becks. Bring your bikes. From the site explore Ambleside, Coniston, Grasmere and Hawkshead villages. All within a 15-minute drive.
