Date of Visit: June 2026 Unit:  Motorhome
Nights stayed: 1 Travelling as:  Mature couple
Reviewer: Mark+Fay 11 reviews from this member

 This was our final campsite on our 14 day trip. We only had 1 night here, but we wished we had longer.

This was the only campsite on our trip where the Shop, Bar, cafe and chip shop were all open. That was a definite bonus.

The pitch was large and level, and the views out to the hills and the lake were stunning.

The site also has access to a private Marina just along the road, where you can sit and enjoy the lake and watch everything going on around you.

It was a busy site, as I guess most are around the lakes, but you couldn't tell; none of the facilities was overcrowded or noisy, and everywhere was so clean and tidy.

There was a children's playground right behind our pitch, but this was locked as soon as the sun started setting and wasn't opened again until the next morning.

What an amazing site to finish our trip at.

 An absolutely amazing campsite. Spacious private and peaceful. We had a great time camping as a group off colleagues there to complete a charity event.

Was a great place to retreat to, to relax and chill after the walk.

Amazing views around with fantastic clean facilities

I would definitely visit again!

Reviewer: Richp123 2 reviews from this member

 Plenty of space, lots of camping fields to choose from, quiet as soon as you get beyond the playground and main facilities.

Furthest field has views of Ullswater.

Staff in shop and cafe were so helpful. Bar in the evening.

Free showers, lots of toilet blocks,

Would def recommend.

 Our first trip to this caravan site with our tourer. Already rebooked for next year.

The staff are lovely, helpful and friendly. The games room has a couple of pool tables to help pass some time for the teenagers. The bar was lovely, we were lucky enough to be there when a live band were playing, they were really good.

There is also shop where you can buy your essentials. The toilets were clean and tidy.

Site is ideally located for exploring the lakes. Ullswater is lovely, we hired a kayak at Glenridding on the recommendation of the staff at the caravan site.

The site is lovely and peaceful, choice of accommodation if you don’t have your own. Not a commercialised site, family run and it shows.

A beautiful place to stop.

 In a lovely location. Super pitches are a good size. Don’t forget to take aerial extension good reception.

Toilet shower block a little on the small side 2x toilets 1x shower has a good size disability room.

Reception nice and friendly with a well stocked shop. Fantastic fish and chip shop on sight highly recommend.

Site is well positioned for walking straight from site so no need to worry about parking.

Lovely play park for kiddies. Great for dogs too.

 We stayed here for 4 night with our 2 children on a scorching weekend in July. Lovely campsite with very clean facilities. Within a few minutes drive of the lake and marina. We went down to the lake for a pic nic and a swim in the water as it was so hot. Has a Bar on site (which we don't normally go for) but which we did use one and it was fine and child friendly.

We would go back here for a second visit.

 Have visited this site with tourer and have stayed in static visited with family group. Excellent and clean facilities. Weather cold on evening, but have own club house so can have a drink and quiz or dance etc, also games room. Beautiful location with short walk to lake and plenty places to visit, chip shop on site and small shop for essentials. Would buy static if more affordable

Reviewer: Lilysmum0151 1 review from this member

 Great site not far from banks of Ullswater and jct 40 of M6. Pooley Bridge (which has great pubs) and several national trust sites nearby (including a lovely waterfall). Hill up to site a bit steep, but we managed it with no issues. Grounds very clean and tidy. Small club house had entertainment over bank holiday weekend (but we didn't use it). Nice playground for kids (near to camping pitches). Mix of camping, statics, touring pitches and cottages /glamping pods. Showers and toilets were very clean. Our touring pitch was not very level but others were better (stick to low numbers). Female manager (owner?) very friendly and efficient and did me a massive favour in accessing shop out of hours when I needed something in an emergency (if you read this. Thanks so much you took the stress out of a very difficult situation). Only minor criticism is that showers were badly designed (water runs from one to the next) and they could do with a bench in each cubicle and mats like those used in public pools which allow water to drain. Not a major issue though and we will be returning soon.

Reviewer: GARY MOO 1 review from this member

 Excellent tree lined friendly family run site and they all work double shifts, as in the staff mowing during the day and mopping the showers to ensure they are spotless at all times. also serves your drinks in the evening, small clubhouse open 8pm-11pm regular pub prices, great chippy on site open 5pm-9pm. Great safe play area for the kids with a brand new zip wire. The only downside is the Lakes weather so choose your pitch carefully, what is bone dry when you arrive may be a mud pit the next day if in a dip, but hey you are in the lakes the wettest place in the UK anyway. All in all had a great stay and will be back, happy camping and thanks to all the team and to the MOD for the free regular airshow over Ullswater
