This really is a beautiful site in a beautiful part of the world.
The wife and I have not been to the lakes for 11 years and it was wonderful to take our 7 year old there. We also had never been to Ullswater and what a treat it was.
This site made life easy from start to finish. Originally made a booking, then had to change dates. There were never any problems or penalties in doing so.
After a swift and efficient check in we drove to the tent field to be met with spectacular views. The site is very big, but split into fields. Therefore there are areas for the statics and the caravans, but also a lot of mixing which creates a better atmosphere.
Our pitch was huge, far bigger than our tent merited, but we were glad as towards the back of the pitch it was a bit of a swamp! (Reception had warned us!). The EHU operates off a card and credit system whereby you get 10 kw per day. I challenge anyone to use this up!
There are 2 toilet blocks. I have to say that the one nearer reception is of a far higher standard. Not that the one in the tent field is rubbish but in relation to the cleanliness, room, water pressure and (according to the wife) shower temperature then this block is the better of the two.
The play area is great for the kids and there were never any problems as there is loads of space for them to play.
There is a bar and games room near reception which opens at 8pm to 11. This was a good option, even though it looks like it is stuck in 1978!
There is even a chippy that opens every night. However we never used it so can`t comment.
The lake is beautiful and can be seen from certain vantage points on the site. You can go to Pooley Bridge or Glenrridding in 10 minutes and just enjoy the area!
We also drove to Keswick and Ambleside and these were only about 25 minutes away.
When the sun shines there can be no finer place on earth!
If you are considering a trip to Ullswater then this is an ideal base and you should treat yourself!

Had a great time at this wonderful caravan park, in a lovely area close to the lake, and plenty of land for the kids to play,
The owners were very helpful, had a few problems with my car, but helped me find a garage( over bank holiday as well !)
Chippy on site could do with being open more often,
Overall we had a great time!
There was a clubhouse, only used it once, but seemed OK.
Wouldn't advise going for a walk unless your fit, as it sits on top of a very large hill !

We have just returned from a really lovely 5 day break at this great site. Brilliant location, very friendly staff, and it was very peaceful and relaxing. All the facilities and the pitches were very well maintained.
There is a small shop that carries the basics, but enough to keep you going if needed.
Great little playground for the children, and a clubhouse/games room.
Our only complaint (if you can call it that!) is that the toilet block was a little on the cold side when having a shower etc.
We will return at some point I am sure.

Me and my family have stayed here numerous times as we enjoyed it so much. The facilities are fantastic, with a park, and games room, a little chip shop and also a shop that near enough sells everything you may run out of! The staff are excellent for ideas of wear to go for different activities! Overall I excellent site would recommend to anybody with children.

Outstanding views on the approach to this campsite, the site was just as outstanding as well
The site is large with areas for both campers and caravanners. We pitched in the field across from the park which the kids loved.
Shower and toilet clean both with hot water, there is also a pot wash area.
Small shop in reception selling basic provisions.
Fish and chip shop on site, bit pricey but you are miles from any shops, The site was clean at all time.
There is also a club house with bar and games room for the kids.
Nearby you can hire boats, great fun on the lake.
Just over the bridge is a couple of pubs and tourist shops and cafes, makes a good day out, also close by are other lakeland areas to vist which makes good days out whether you are in to sight seeing, walking or shopping.
I would just like to say great site, wonderful area and that I will revisit the lakes in the future.

This site is in a great location for the lake & a good base for the lake & northern part of the national park.
Our visit this time was over the bank holiday weekend. We have stayed at the site a number of times in the past but always at much quieter periods. I am please to say that despite the site being extremely busy, it maintained a feel of quiet & relaxation. Very laid back place. Safe & secure for the kids to play freely. A reasonably sized play area is provided.
The Toilet/Shower & washing up facilities were good, clean and plenty of Hot Water for the showers both mornings and in the evenings. I'd quite happily recommend this site.

Just spent 3 days at Ullswater Caravan and Camping Marine Park cant praise it enough,
The facilities were good the pitches were good all seemed to have electricity hook ups, water taps and a drain to empty the sink waste water down,
The staff friendly, the club house which is next to a games room were children can go into was okay,
There is a shop that sells quite a selection of goods it is open 8am till 8pm.
Just down the road one way was Pooley Bridge which is a nice place to visit and the other way is Glenridding which is also a place worth visiting.

The welcome in the reception/shop was warm and pleasant, this reflected the whole stay.
The site was near immaculate at all times and there was even guys out repairing the odd pot holes in the camps roads. The toilet blocks were modern and spotless despite the site being fairly full.
Showers hot and free. There had obviously been a lot of rain and new turf laid to try to keep things usable. The play park was great with plenty to keep my kids busy. The shop although at first glance seeming a bit sparse turned out to have something to at least 'get bye' for every occasion. My only two minor criticisms which would probably be personal to me were, The curfew was 11. 30pm a tad late for my youngsters - that said it is very family orientated and never got very loud anyway. The second was the fish and chip shop was just that -you could have fish, chips or both - they don't do anything else.

Just had a lovely few days at the ullswater. Despite been busy it was still peaceful and relaxing. Even the heavy rainfall at the weekend couldn't ruin it.
The site has a games room and pub open at peak times and a chip shop that opens on an evening between 5-9pm.
The facilities are very good for kids with a large playground and ample room for a game of football or cricket.
Some lovely walks from the site one been Aira falls which is 3 miles away. I will definitely be returning in the near future.

This was a really nice site. It seems the further north you go in the lakes - the better. The overall size seemed just right - not too big and not too small.
The weather was really nice which can help things but the site had a really nice atmosphere at night with everyone sitting outside there tents chatting quietly but then in near silence after dark.
Showers of the expected standard - nothing too flash but good enough!
Site shop good and staff were friendly. The woman who booked us in was really helpful this was one of the few sites I could find ( in the lakes )where I could get a side by side pitch next to our friends who were in a caravan. Not quite sure why this was the case as money was not an issue and we wanted ehu etc.
