The Honeybee camping pod (no pets)
Liked: Honeybee pod was amazing, and very comfortable. On site facilities provided all we needed for our short stay. On site shop was basic but chippy was great as was the games room.

Liked: The park is beautiful , so clean ,the toilet and showers immaculate check in so effortless lovely staff, the site is quiet which is what we wanted. However I do think the bar has the timings wrong , opening on the wrong days , I do get it is not busy but being open tues and not weds seems strange , why not open weds till sunday ? we dont go out at home but would of liked to go out for a couple of drinks , we did tues but closed weds it would benefit the staff having 2 days off together , I speak as a ex licencee

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The camping ground is very large with plenty of places to choose from. The views are incredible and it's very close to Ullswater itself. There's a shop with all the basic necessities even including batteries, gas, torches etc, as well as food and little games. The bar and games room are also a nice touch if that's something you want. We'd definitely come back here again :)
Disliked: Some shower facilities can be a little temperamental. In one block the pressure is nice but the water could be a little hotter, in another the water is hot but the pressure is insane and you have to press the button every 5 seconds.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked: The camp location is perfect, handy for Ullswater and all the hills around that area. The toilets were great, showers were hot and free! The washing up area was spot on, as was the choice of pitches. Reception staff were lovely and helpful, all the information was easy to understand and follow. The grass was very, very wet but still managed to get the car on and off and the car gets to stay next to the tents which is a winner.
Disliked: The guy in the tent a fair way away snoring like thunder!
