Great picturesque location and helpful, friendly staff.
One of the best sites for cleanliness and nice facilities.
It’s a small boutique site with amazing views over Derwent Water.

Fabulous site, tidy and clean. There are a lot of rules and regulations however.
Facilities are spotless and kept that way by constant cleaning.
Staff are fabulous and friendly, the views are exceptional and it's just a half-hour walk down into Keswick.
The site is an excellent base for visiting the wonders of the area; standing stones, lakes, hills and dales.
We will definitely be back.

Normally camp with a large group of friends at events, but this was the first time I had been out "solo".
Decided to have a photographic weekend in the Lakes and I could not have picked a better site. Views around the site were spectacular.
The site itself was extremely well run and the facilities well maintained even down to the shop that carries a nice selection of food and camping basics without going overboard. Staff were very friendly and extremely helpful. Pricing - Excellent value for money, even including the electric hook up.
One down side is that the on site restaurant does not have tenant so is currently closed, but its only a short trip down to Keswick, which has a varied choice of eateries
Going again in 2023 for definite

Loved this site. The views were amazing. The shower block was pristine and modern.
The journey with a caravan was easy, it being not far off the A66 and no narrow country lanes.
As others have said the walk back from Keswick was two miles all uphill - but good for one's fitness!
Enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely return.

Nice site but would have been useful to know the hayloft cafe on site has closed down. No mention of this even though it has been shut all season. 👎 Please don't advertise something that doesn't exist.
Was really disappointed and spoiled the holiday for us.

Friendly, helpful staff. Quiet site. Great views and well placed for some lovely fell walks.
Clean shower block. Hook up sites are numbered, so if out for day, as in camper van, knowledge that items left will still be there and pitch still available.
Excellent free wi-fi. Only down side, confusion over 2 similarly named campsite in close proximity.
Although advertised as near Keswick, it is a 30 minute walk, beware that it is a 500 foot ascent walk back to camp, quite a struggle for the less energetic.

What a lovely site, great place, well ran,
Showers, toilets washroom, day room, drying room, (all exceptionally clean),
On site shop, all brilliant.
Not a long walk to town but a good climb back up after a day on the hill!

We really enjoyed staying at your campsite! There was a lot of space between each pitch, the owners were lovely and really helpful.
The facilities were quite basic (the heat didn’t help towards the toilets sanitation so needed to be cleaned more frequently), but we didn’t mind. We didn’t have to wait to use anything.
We will be back and would definitely recommend to friends and family. The views were also stunning.

Excellent location with stunning views across the fells, particularly Blencathra, Skiddaw, Clough Head and Great Dodd.
Onsite Reception, Toilet Block, Washing Machine and Tumble Dryer Room, Common Room, Communal Area with toaster and kettles, TV and fridge.
Site accommodates static caravans, mobile caravans, tents, pods, log cabin etc.
There a good sized play area for the kids and small river/stream running through site. Site does provide fire pits and wood at small cost.
Showers are lovely and hot, clean & well provided toilet facilities. Our 2nd visit in a month.
Will definitely be returning soon.

I received a warm welcome from the team here when they opened again, just as we were allowed to travel once more.
No facilities open as per regulations but I was made aware of this and that I would need to be able to rely on my own (which I did).
Having said all this, castlerigg Farm Campsite has to be my very favourite Lakeland site.
Beautiful views in all directions, plenty of space, EHU, water, MH grey waste driveover and chemical toilet emptying facilities. There was a small shop on site too, though I didn’t use it.
The most fabulous walks straight from the site, though be aware that it’s a an uphill walk back up from Keswick if you head out that way.

Loved the location and how quiet and peaceful it was. Nice friendly staff.
It wasn't very busy but during peak times they still enforce plenty of space between pitches with is great. Also they allow fires.
Will be back again and again

Great views and a nice well kept site.
Obviously with the Covid situation I cannot comment on the facilities,
But we would return here to do more walking in the area.
