The Old Post Office Campsite

Líbí se The location in the West Lakes is superb. 15 minutes from Wasdale but also 15 minutes from the coast. The river running past the site is very beautiful and the Bridge Inn is a great place for a drink.

Nelíbí se Not much. A small site but well looked after. It has all we needed.

Líbí se We loved this site. So clean and rhe staff were friendly and accommodating. We had a warm welcome when we arrived.
The pitch sizes we very good and it was a nice touch having the picnic benches.

Nelíbí se Just a few little things
My partner had problems with shower 1.
I had problems with the door handle to the loo. I had to push it down really hard on a few occasions.
I think they need extra showers and toilets or separate wash cubicle, so you can have a private wash.
But these are only small things

We are glad to hear you enjoyed the site, I can only apologise for the shower we are fully aware of the problems that keep happening and intend to have it rectified as soon as possible.

All the doors on site are newly fitted and are working absolutely fine They may be just a little stiff with them being new.

We will take onboard your other points and look to improve this in the future.

We look forward to you visiting the site again in the near future.

Líbí se The setting was fantastic listening to the sound of the stream. The pitches are generous and good hard standing. The staff are fabulous and very welcoming. Pot wash and facilities are good, 50p for the showers last 10 mins which is plenty enough.

Nelíbí se Nothing

Líbí se Lovely clean site, added bonus having the river for fishing and a pub on the doorstep, staff very helpful and friendly.

Nelíbí se Unfortunately there was a large group of people congregating around their vans, seemed to be together, took over the site which spoilt what could of been a lovely peaceful weekend, perhaps next time we would return out of season.

We can only apologise for the large group that was on site during your stay, we do not allow group bookings on site as per our terms and conditions, the site is very much for couples and small families, however we were unaware that this was a group booking until they had all arrived on site. I hope this didn't disrupt your stay too much, and we will be keeping a very close eye on bookings in the future as this is not something we cater for.

We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

Líbí se Camp sight was in a beautiful setting however you need to remember your bug spray being near the river. We all had a great time on the river. We didn’t mind paying for a showers.

Nelíbí se Only one problem. We all thought staff could be rude at times. One example was, we asked about a tight space for a friend that was arriving. He replied with I’ve not even got a caravan and I could drive with one better than any of you. We had a driller and a bus driver with us. And both thought the space was tight for a caravan.

I was exasperated and truly saddened to see your overall review of your stay at The Old Post Office Campsite.

We were extremely surprised when your extended family of 6+ caravans arrived on site. On our terms and conditions it states that group bookings are not permitted on site and bookings of two or more units travelling together are not permitted, however we were unaware that you were a group travelling together until you all arrived, we took the risk and decided to let you stay with it being a bank holiday weekend and the likelihood of you being able to book anywhere else at short notice would be very unlikely.

I watched your entire group of 6+ caravans arrive at the entrance causing humorous carnage and chaos blocking main access and attempting to manoeuvre into pitches big enough for a caravan and its towing vehicle, all while reversing into hedges, driving over and hitting large white painted stones and blatantly driving over the grassed areas. My comment was not meant to be rude, it was based on what I had seen.

Please understand that any "jesting" between the male members of your group and myself was received and taken in the kind and light hearted manner to which it was given and received throughout your stay.

I spent numerous amounts of time out of my maintenance schedule to show 2 children within your group various fishing spots and correct fly techniques to help them out. We lent a body board to another child within your large group, and when another member of your group had a hosepipe burst and spring a leak I pulled out a spare for them to borrow (for which they were truly appreciative). On the 2nd day of your stay another member of your group complained about insect bites to his lower legs, I offered and supplied a bottle of Jungle Formula (insect rep) which was never returned. My colleague also accommodated another two members of your group to stay, without booking and at very short notice.
To make you aware, we still have outstanding balances for 2 awnings and an extra nights stay from members of your "extended family". Customer service 3/10 ?

Moving forward we will be paying particular attention with regards to individual bookings travelling, arriving and holidaying together. In future to protect customers on site and staff we will be referring to and enforcing our terms and conditions.

Líbí se Friendly staff. Good location for walks and the pub. Lovely pitch next to the river. Facilities clean with hot showers.

Nelíbí se Having to pay extra to use an awning ( have already paid for the pitch).
50p for a shower.

We look forward to welcoming you back again soon.

Líbí se What an amazing site! The location is stunning - right next to a crystal clear river with a lovely pub just metres away and 19mins drive from the start of the main Scafell route. We had a good swim with wetsuits. Also recommend The Sawmill a few mins drive away for incredible brunch.

The toilets and showers are immaculate. It was quiet, but friendly. We will definitely be back.

Nelíbí se Honestly, nothing.

Quite but in a good location as not much is far away eh local store's, the lakes or surrounding stunning views. Toilets very clean, cleaned every day. Mix of electric and serviced pitches place to park car by outfit.
