 A LOVELY CAMPSITE. Spectacular views and clean toilets, a well stocked shop and helpful owners. We have 3 dogs and the owners were very helpful to us by letting us pitch in a further field where our dogs did not have to stay tied up - the only problem we had whilst there was one of the farm dogs came into our tent and had some of our food - but that was a small price to pay to have what we had. Playground for the kids too - I will come back to this one!

I use this site all year round and have for many years, I agree this is a great friendly site, nice place to be and great views. I will use it for many years to come. Being in its location gives you the chance to leave your transport behind and try out the local walks. The childrens play area has two trampolines included, and are in regular use. Nice washrooms,and washing and drying machines

Lovely site, just off the A66 between Keswick and Penrith. Very well laid out, great children's play area, very generous pitches and nice facilities including a bonus log cabin complete with TV, microwave and Kettle for guests to use! TV was popular as we couldn't get a signal on ours!
Lovely people running the site, and cannot fault the layout or facilities.
Only slight downside was road noise from the A66, but that is a slight detractor and wouldn't stop us from staying again.
Gill Head is a working farm complete with cows, sheep and hens to gawp at!

Just come back from 3 nights at this lovely site. The owners are very friendly, easy going people who run a great camp site that is bedecked with flower beds and hanging baskets. It is quiet and peaceful with wonderful views but within easy reach of both Keswick and Penrith for shopping etc.
The facilities are not exactly super posh but they were always spotlessly clean with plenty of hot water for showering and washing up and the log cabin is a bonus with its microwaves and kettle. An excellent site that will become our regular place to stay whenever we visit the Northern Lakes.

We stay at this camp site on our weekend visits to the Lakes. WE like it because it is half way between Penrith and Keswick but still has beautiful views of Blencathra. We just turn up and never have to book, they let us pitch up and settle the bill the following day. The only downside is the fact that the field isnt very flat and because the site was busy this weekend we were pitched on a slope.
