Bowness on Solway Camping and Glamping

Positiv Great hardstanding with grass pitches. It was quiet when we went so very peaceful. Amazing toilet block, very well thought out. Lovely on site pub and restaurant with nice meals.Great washing up facilities and washer dryer. Super friendly staff. Great little museum about the area. Lots of info boards around the village describing history. Shepherd huts looked lovely. If doing the hadrians wall path make sure to stamp your book at the official start. Worth a look around the little church next door. The most perfect place for a lazy weekend away.

Negativ Don't let the first impression of a bit of a building site put you off as its just work in progress and not an issue. Hope the toilets stay as pristine as they are. Could do with mops in there to mop shower spills. A microwave, kettle and toaster would be a great addition in the kitchen room maybe.

Positiv Clean and tidy facilities
Friendly staff
Great food at the Bistro

Positiv Super plek

Negativ alles was prima

Positiv Excellent, clean facilities, peaceful location. Good spot for start/end of Hadrians Wall walk. Pub/cafe nearby. Good value

Negativ Couldn't find a bin for rubbish or recycling. In high season the site might feel cramped as hard gravel pitches quite close together so ok for 1 or 2 nights.

Positiv Close to start/ finish of the Hadrian's Wall path.
Various historic things to see and learn about close by.
Good facilities.
The food from the Bistro was excellent, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner on various days and was the best food we have eaten out in a very long time and was very reasonably priced.

Positiv New, clean toilets/showers
Nice view to the front - to the rear was a construction site

Negativ Expected a peaceful, relaxing break. Woken by the strident tones of a forklift truck repeatedly reversing, followed up by a log splitter and loader and a cement mixer! Unable to upload a video which would demonstrate how loud this was. Staff less than sympathetic and not particularly polite when I expressed my displeasure. Manager/cook insists that pitch up description forewarns of building works (it doesn’t), then changes tack to “pitch up must have taken it off”
Food in on site bistro extremely poor quality. Cheap reconstituted chicken burgers and “plastic cheese” served with greasy, flabby chips and onion rings. The photograph of the steak pie is sufficient description.
We left a day early and stayed elsewhere.

Positiv Great site especially for Hadrians Wall walkers. Warm welcome and so friendly throughout. Fantastic clean facilities with lovely showers

Positiv What an atmospheric site - compact and very much part of the historic village. Very peaceful and incredibly friendly and helpful. The facilities are brand new and scrupulously clean.

Negativ Nothing!

Positiv Beautiful site. Facilities were immaculate. Pitching area was flat and well kept.
Bistro on site food was fresh and delicious and well priced.
Gym was also well equipped.

Negativ Not a dislike but would have been handy to have a little print out of opening hours for shop pub etc. Where bins were and anything helpful like nearest supermarket etc

Positiv Very clean. Good restaurant and bar. Friendly staff.

Negativ We tried to cancel due to heavy rain and winds. Or change date but was told they won't do this.
