Love this site! great location right next to Conistgon water, lovely walkway all the way to coniston village. Great spot to set off for old man climb. Does get very busy and you can become surrounded by campers but still a lovely site and very friendly campers to chat to.

Toilets up a little hill with power sockets! Great site very helpful friendly owner, not too strict with rules etc you find your own spot, no campfires but you can have bbqs etc if raised from ground.

We have just returned from a one night camp at this site,and I was pleasantly surprised ! it was a last minute decision to stay here due to a different campsite being full. We arrived on Saturday afternoon, to join up with friends who were already camping there for a birthday camp weekend. The site was maybe half full,and on arrival, we were told we could camp wherever,and that was about it.

No riot act was read out to us, and no precise measurements of our tent needed, very relaxed, and a nice change from the more regimental style campsites in the lakes.

The owners seemed nice, and you book in at the little shop. 'little' being the word, but it seemed to have everything you would need.

Cost was £7 per person, per night. Car, £2 per night, and a £5 deposit for a barrier card if you want to put your car next to your tent.

Toilets clean,always had loo roll, we only stayed one night so didn't use showers, other members of our party who arrived on Friday did, and said they were hot, and stayed on for around 5 mins for 50p. Plenty of mirrors in girls toilets, also noticed plug sockets in the girls toilets, so will be taking the straighteners next time !

Didn't venture off site, so don't know about local amenities, but the scenery round the site was beautiful,lovely view of coniston old man and would be a fantastic base to start coniston old man from,as its right there !

As there was a big group of us, it was nice to all be able to camp together. I think this site is ideal for groups who are wanting to have a laugh and a get together,maybe not so suited to couples looking for a quiet break. Many groups were sat outside their tents laughing and chatting,but didn't hear any loud music, and it was a very nice atmosphere all across the campsite. We went to bed at 12am and around half an hour or so later the site was more or less silent.

We will definitely be returning, very good budget site,for a weekend getaway.

Great site.

We were in the group area which is set away from the main camp site so as not to disturb other people.

The ground is a bit hard in this area but we managed to get the pegs in.

The main site is pretty level and grass covered.

The toilets in the group area are not up to muich, but the main facilities (10 minutes walk from our isolated area) were excellent.

A great base for exploring the area and a reasonable walk into coniston.

I have visited this site several times in the past with my family and friends, beautiful surrounds however this time was awful. The site is not recommended for families in my experience.

Unlike previous visits the site was mainly occupied by large groups of young men and women, impossible to get any sleep at night due to music noise and language.

The owner will kick the groups off in the morning if you report them but every day along came another group to replace them. It was so bad that our group all left early. Site info says no same sex groups and no noise after 11 neither of these rules are upheld. My advice is go elsewhere.

Me and my partner arrived Friday dinner and it wasn't that busy so we could choose where ever we wanted to pitch our tent. By Friday evening it was quite full and people were still putting up tents gone half 9.

Its in a beautiful location on a farm next to coniston lake were you are able to fish, canoe etc. The rates are very reasonable. The ground is quite hard and rocky so good strong pegs needed.

The toilets and shower blocks are clean and the showers cost 50p but you do get hot water for about 10 minutes. There is a little village 15 minutes stroll away with everything you might need; cash machine, petrol station, shops, pubs and cafes.

It is the second time we have visited the site and highly recommend it to anyone; couples, groups and family's.

I found the site to be very pleasant, I travelled with a group of 7 friends and as we were all male we were expected to pay to 20 pound deposit each which is understandable

The facilities were fairly clean, better than many sites I have visited

But I felt there should have been warnings about the very swift rise in the depth of the water as this came as quite a shock to me. Overall a very nice site.
