Date of Visit: May 2011 Unit:  Touring Caravan
Reviewer: NRGRAY12 4 reviews from this member

 This is a campsite in a picturesque location, close to a babbling brook. It is a caravan club certified location with 5 pitches, which are among mature conifer trees.

The pitches are all hard standing, although rocks and an electricity pole and stay make it too tight for an awning to be properly erected on at least two pitches.

It is a 15 minute walk from the shores of ullswater, and is a good location for exploring the lake district while being away from the crowds around windermere.

The site is incorrectly listed in the caravan club handbook 2011 and is near penrith. Repeating what has been said in a previous review, do not take your caravan to the main office/estate office. We took ours that way and had difficulty getting it out, scratching the side in the process. When travelling from penrith, go past the main entrance on the left and turn right at the microscopic caravan club sign further on on the corner on the right.

Do not attempt to use this site without a motor mover if you have a large van. It is very tight, and there are large rocks and poorly trimmed bushes, which further damaged our new caravan. We felt that this and the directions could have been highlighted in the confirmatory email or on the caravan club website.

Patterdale hall is an outward bound centre, with playing fields and at least one assault course on the estate (the assault course is not to be used without supervision according to one of the many signs). It plays host to at least one school, and while we were there, the noise was dreadful. Screaming and shouting on a regular basis throughout the day and into the evening, particularly from an assault course next to the cl early one morning. The management claim that activities are kept well away from the cl, but this clearly was not the case while we were there.

We had good freeview reception, but some other pitches did not. We could not get any mobile reception with orange. The electricity supply was good, and the water and waste disposal adequate.

 Caravan club CL - members only.EHU but no other facilities. Setting under trees by babbling beck - no FM or digital TV on our pitch but apparently TV reception varies from pitch to pitch.

Wonderful setting in the grounds of a Lakes estate. Walked from the site up Grisedale valley to Grisdale Tarn. Also recommend the lakeside walk from Patterdale to Howtown, catching the steamer back to Glenridding.

Midway between Glenridding and Patterdale 10-15 minute walk to each. Good beer at the Travellers Rest just outside Glenridding. Good food and beer at pub in Patterdale

Excellent value at £12pn, short walk through the estate lodges to shore line of Ullswater. Magical 


Date of Visit: July 2010 Unit:  Motorhome
Reviewer: PilgrimPhil 86 reviews from this member

 Excellent location to access all walks around Patterdale & Glenridding. We did Place Fell and Helvellyn whilst there but would have done more if it hadn't rained so much!

The pitches are really secluded down a narrow track with a babbling brook just yards away.

Motorhomes need to have a long water hose as the water point is not readily adjacent to the pitches.

£12 per night was good value.

Glenridding has more shops etc. But Patterdale shop & pubs were just fine.

One to return to when we get some good weather!

 This was our 2nd visit to this great site. The grounds of the Patterdale Hall estate are open to campers and there is access to the lake very nearby.
We walked directly from the site to Grisedale Tarn, Fairfield and across St Sunday Crag - an excellent day out. Arrived late on site, but just set up and paid the next day.
Ideal, minimal facility site with a laid back atmosphere. Will certainly return.

 An excellent little members only site, superbly located on the edges of Patterdale and Glenridding villages. Both villages off excellent eating and drinking and have some small shops and cafes.
The lake is on the doorstep and motorboats, canoes and rowing boats can be hired within walking distance from the site. This is one of the best locations in the Lakes for mountain walking, and several walks start from the villages, including Helvellyn and Place Fell.
Note, that there are no facilities on this site, so you need to have your own. Overall, excellent site.
