Motorhome Stopovers in Cumberland

Cumberland covers the western Lake District and the Solway Coast — Scafell Pike (England’s highest mountain), Wastwater (England’s deepest lake), Ullswater, Hadrian’s Wall running east from the Solway Firth, and Carlisle as the principal city. It’s proper motorhome country and the western lakes — Ennerdale, Loweswater, Crummock Water — are quieter than the more famous eastern valleys.

Motorhome Stopover Club members share verified overnight spots across Cumberland — the Lake District UNESCO World Heritage Site needs good stopover knowledge because official sites fill fast and the lay-by rules are strictly enforced in some areas.
