Gillhead campsite has excellent facilities toilets are immaculate beautifully well
Maintained camp and caravan areas. The staff are friendly and helpful and take huge pride in what gillhead has to offer to folks with caravans or campers. Great location for families or young people or the mature couples like ourselves. We been going to gillhead for 31 years and would not go anywhere else. The site has been developed so much offering a wide range of facilities for dry days and wet days.

Thank you to gillhead

A great little campsite that ticks all the boxes if you’re looking for a peaceful and relaxed stay. The atmosphere is really chilled, laid back and easy going both day and night, making it perfect for unwinding and having a safe space for the family plus sleep.

Facilities are well-maintained, with consistently hot showers and everything kept impressively clean. Guests are respectful of the site rules, including cleaning up after using the showers and communal areas, which really adds to the overall experience.

The plots themselves are spacious and well laid out, plenty of drinking water stations, we had an electric supplement, but weren’t forced into a particular spot which meant we could get close to a friends pitch. It’s also super easy to get to, just a short hop off the motorway, making it an ideal base to hop off to areas of interest.

Highly recommend for anyone looking for a calm, clean, and convenient place to pitch up.

Shop isn’t open late so be prepared for items you need if coming back slightly later, however I’m sure they’ll help if asked for supplies.

Brook and water fall were fantastic
Lady on reception was great
Facilities clean
Views second to none

Excellent site, clean, tidy lovely facilities such as toilets, showers, communal room, play area and washing up area.
Not too big but also not too small, plenty of space without feeling cramped.
The best part...stunning views! Also really central to lots of different places to visit and things to do.

Nothing, excellent site.

Wonderful campsite with an idyllic view of the Lake District mountains. I have to say they have thought of everything at Gill Head! A communal area with indoor & outdoor seating, clean showers & toilets, pitches for tents & campers, cabins for you to hire if you don’t want to lug a tent there, cottages for a more homelier stay. Honestly so lovely, and everyone we met on site was so friendly too! We especially loved the quiet time after 10pm too

Facilities really clean peaceful no one giving you a hard time but if you needed anything you got it stunning scenery beautiful well maintained location

Maybe could have pool table or table tennis for teenagers in common room

Did a solo trip with my border collie, Connie. We absolutely loved it! Initially booked one night but extended it to two. All of the facilities were great, I had no problem with the pitch, weather was a little drizzly but experienced no issues. I spoke to one of the owners and she was lovely and had no problem letting me extend another night. Was a little anxious being on my own but I soon met some wonderful neighbouring campers that really made my time here special. The site just felt so friendly and safe and definitely attracts the right family friendly crowd. The first night was one of the nights they had fresh pizzas being made on site, don’t forget to pre-order like I did though as I missed the sign :( Location is in a great spot, not too far from Penrith town & Blencartha is just down the road. I travelled to Raven Crag and it wasn’t far at all. I will 1000% be back, you made my first time solo camping a dream and Connie absolutely loved it too 😊

Excellent site!!!!

Nothing really…some noisy neighbours on first night but not the site’s fault…

Wonderful campsite. Stayed at the riverside pitch which was secluded and next to the lovely waterfall. Very tranquil. Kids enjoyed going into the stream and crossing to get to the waterfall. Facilities are great onsite including the communal area. Will say that the riverside pitches are a bit of a walk from showers, washing up etc. Not an issue but worth being aware.

Toilet portaloos by riverside campsite have a terrible stench. I know it must be limited at that side of the campsite but you are best going further to the next block.
