Dalegarth Campsite

Positiv A beautiful view next to the mountain and river

Negativ Really hard to get to the location. Different address than the one on the map. She texted us the new location. Is away from the main road and hard to get to it. No shower, no bins, nothing as in photos. Only a site portable loo on an empty field. Really disappointed. We paid for 2 nights. We called the lady to let her know that we will arrive in the evening as we drove from Coventry and it was heavy traffic. She told us that we are not allowed to get on site after 6pm as we disturbed the other people. We ended up sleeping in the car next to the campsite until the next day. She didn't want to return the money for that night. Early morning when we arrived on site we were surprised to see only one car on campsite. I recommend you the campsite from the main road with all the facilities included.

Vom Platzbetreiber: The most ridiculous review ever! You rang me to say you would arrive at 11pm!! This I told you was unacceptable in every way and you were welcome to arrive as early as you liked the following morning so sleeping in your car was completely your own choice! Firstly from a safety perspective you are driving onto a site in a dark skies area where people are asleep on the ground. Secondly it is unfair to disturb sleeping people who have made provision to arrive in a timely manner. Lastly you are arriving in one of the remote parts of the Lake District so arriving in daylight would have made it possible to find the site easily! No campsites allow entry after 8/9pm in the valley. We don’t have a barrier but the others do!
The address is on the Pitchup site and no one else has had an issue with the fact that it was highlighted we had to move sites and use showers on the old site. The new address and photos are on the pitchup page!
Has you arrived on time you would’ve been shown where the bins, water etc was located which was in the field.

Positiv This place is ideal for families and friends. Walks on the doorstep cracking views. Good food in the near by pubs. Can't wait to get back for another stay and explore some more.

Positiv Loved the space,Kate was really lovely. Had a gorgeous loop walk along the River Esk to Dalegarth station. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Negativ It’s a shame the new site (thanks to the council) doesn’t have the showers and we didn’t end up going back to the old site to use them but handy that we could have done.

Positiv Setting, relaxed pitch choice, herdies in field, price, wild swimming spot just round the corner, walking from the campsite, steam railway!

Negativ Portaloos needed emptying after what assumed was a busy weekend, could maybe do with 2 extra or more regular emptying

Positiv The location was really good for what we wanted to do (hikes and co.), firepits were provided (all you needed to do was buy some wood which was fairly proced) and, it was dog friendly

Negativ There were only 2 portaloo's for the whole campsite and showers (if you wanted a shower you had to drive to the old campsite)

Positiv Lovely quiet site in a beautiful location. Very basic facilities. Three good pubs within walking distance - one only five minutes away

Negativ Portaloos a bit full by Sunday.

Positiv The views were incredible. And Kate was the perfect host. She came to welcome us, got us wood for the fire pit, and offered great tips for walks in the surrounding area. There was an incident with a large group of campers who made a lot of noise and refused to keep it down one night, but when we told Kate about it she asked them to leave. I thought she handled the situation excellently and everyone else was very pleased to have a sound night sleep the next night. I will definitely stay here again, its the perfect spot.
