We had a wonderful time at Wild Rose. It was one of the best run campsites we've been to. The children had a great time and we didn't leave the site very much. The play areas are great as are the swimming pools (they are cold). The shop is very well stocked and reasonably priced, so no need to stock up at a supermarket. I'd go there again. The children loved the rabbits and hedgehogs at Donkeys Nest, especially the hedgehog that came into our tent.

6 berth caravan, 4 children and 2 adults. Fabulous campsite, well laid out. Reception open until 9.30pm. Take away and cafe on site. Food excellent. Shop on site has just about everything you would need. Three parks for the children catering for a variety of ages. Outdoor swimming pool / paddling pool - cold but the children still wanted to be in it!
Super pitch, perfectly level and plenty of space to manouvre.
Check out time 12pm but there was no problem about staying on a little longer (3pm).
Even though it rained it did not spoil our visit. We will be back.

I can honestly say this is a great site..
The tent pitches in the "Donkeys nest" are massive (well worth it), we had our tent (vango tbs 800 dlx), our big gazebo and trailer with car and all surrounded with our windbreaks.
Staff more than helpfull. Take away is mint, good value, try the 1/2 chicken and chips.
Showers/toilets nipping clean and the swimming pool is just the job to cool off.
The dog area is well planned, drinking water/poop bags on site.
The shop sells anything at a fair price and there is a local pub just down the lane, pleasant and good meals.
10/10 I will be back !

This site is superb. It is very clean and well kept. It has lots of flowers everywhere and really is very hard to find fault with. There are plenty facilites and a well stocked shop.
The only negative things about it are there didn't seem enough showers and some of the pitches are on a slope. You can choose your own pitch when you arrive as when you book you dont get allocated a pitch, but if the park is busy then you may have to put up with one on a slope.
I would certainly visit again.

Visited August 2003, with Khyam RigiDome Ultimate, during heat wave with two children 13 & 11.
Strengths
Good site, clean and reasonably well catered for. Cheerful staff. Clippings removed when site mown:-) Good location for Lakes & Pennines.
Weaknesses
Too few showers; do not believe pool is heated; primarily a static caravan site - tents are sited in "Donkey's nest", the worst (noisiest) part of the site next to the road with significant heavy and agricultural traffic.
If eating out, local pubs poor - look further afield, e.g. Royal Oak, Bongate, other side of Appleby which is v.g.

Popular Choice in this Area
Fisherground Campsite - Eskdale
Nestling in the beautiful Eskdale Valley close to Scafell, England's highest mountain and Wastwater, this site is a children's paradise in the heart of the Lake District. The first thing that meets you on arrival is the pond, fed by a stream and usually full of children paddling and playing on tyre rafts. The playground has zip wires, climbing frames, tyre rope-swings and adventure courses.
Grass pitches (some with EHU) for tents, motorhomes, VW-sized campervans (no caravans). Refurbished toilets, showers and laundry. Peace is the watchword on the campsite - catering mainly for families and couples with silence after 10.30pm. Don't forget your marshmallows - campfires are allowed in selected areas. Nearby shop and pub. And there's an added extra: the site sits along the route of the Ravenglass and Eskdale Steam Railway line, with it's own station. Choo Choo! Find out more here

Just returned from a 4 night stay at this site. Facilities are excellent, especially for children.
Would have to agree with all the other people who have reviewed this site, it is a great campsite.
My only reservations would be that the swimming pool was very cold considering it was heated. Not enough showers in toilet blocks. And for people staying in tents the only available sites are either next to the road, which is very busy for a small blocked-off country road, or at other end of site which has the railway line right next to it.
All-in-all would use this site again.

Base our selves at this site every year throughout august for the last 3 years (Good value for a monthly stay)
Excellent base to travel the cumbrian countryside.
Campsite is excellent, clean and plenty to occupy our Children (now 11 & 8 and 6 months), facilities marvellous, Staff very helpful and friendly and will be returning again next year without fail
At lest this year we can go walking and not be hampered by the F & M restrictions

Excellent, clean site for families. Camping pithes good and range of facilties for the kids is excellent, plus laundry, dish washing, ice-pack freezer and good toilets/showers. Great touring base for the Lakes without being in the busy main areas. First time family camping trip and a 100% success! - will definately return.

I visited wild rose last year with my husband and 3 children. we used it as a base for 5 days as my husband was working in the area.
I found the staff to be very friendly and very obliging. The site was spotless and i was very impressed with the laundry and the showers/toilets which were spotlessly clean.
There was plenty things to keep the children occupied...parks, table tennis, arcade, pool, t.v room, swimming pool, large grassy area for football, a small golfing area,competitions and a small cinema room where films were shown daily.
A great time was had by all and and we hope to visit again this year..thank you wild rose :-)
