Ings Kippers Campsite and Shepherd's Hut

Positiv Super friendly staff, free little bottle of milk and a very spacious and well equiped shepards hut, best one I have ever stayed in

Positiv The facilities at Ings Kippers are fantastic!! Great little features at the site like the charging lockers, freezer for ice blocks and the trolley to transport your tent etc to the pitch. The outdoor shower is a great little bonus, perfect on a hot weekend like we’ve just had! The owners of the site were very friendly and attentive. We loved how every pitch had its own little quirks. The cat is really friendly too.

Negativ A bit of road noise but not too intrusive.

Positiv Brilliant site. Well laid out. Lovely secluded pitches. Fire pits and wood available. Highly recommended.

Positiv Great location, lovely hosts, great value for money. Would definitely stay there again

Positiv I liked pretty much everything about it!
Lovely kept property and surroundings as you arrive, parking at the bottom of the hill clearly marked and safe.
Great little land on the hills. Views were amazing, really clean and sufficient amenities there. Very kind owner Malcolm.
Fire pit on each pitch which were surprisingly level considering you are on a large hill. He's put in lovely little touches like free to use charging stations, sheltered hot shower, a 'gear cart ' to help with your gear up the hill and a free to use freezer for ice packs, perfect. Each station, pitch and rubbish bins etc all had a clear notice on to keep everything right and tidy.
As a first time solo camper I had only research and words from friends about the cost of pitching up like this, and Ings kippers hill top camp site are really well priced, you get alot for your money in all honesty.
They've really thought about it all alot, having drinking water stations dotted over the site including right at the top of the hill, the pitch I chose when arrived. A camp library cabinet. There were clearly marked bins available at the top and bottom of the hill even a little washing up water station aswell!
The site was well looked after, clean and friendly.
Fully recommended site for solo travellers, couples, friends and even if you wanted to bring your child.

Positiv Location, price. Owners are very friendly and helpful.

Positiv beautiful location, on a good bus route. nice private pitches and the barbecue/ fire pit laid on was a nice touch. very friendly and helpful owners!

Negativ it’s a fairly steep walk from the car/ shower up to the top pitches- not normally an issue but difficult to pitch up/down in the rain.

Positiv It's the second time I've been to this site and it has everything you may require. Althought, it is a non electric pitch, there facilities for shower, charging your phone, a freezer you have access to and a fire pit. Plus it's in an ideal location for both the Fairfield and Kentmere horseshoe. I totally recommend it. And it's always a quiet spot if that's what you're looking for.

Negativ Nothing at all. Cannot fault it.

Positiv great views at the top of the hill, but semi private pitches are amazing, there are a couple of completely private ones but most are two tents per section, with bushes and trees surrounding the pitches.

convenient compost toilet right by the pitches with a full plumbed bathroom at the base of the hill

handy firepit with every pitch too

Negativ you can't really tell from the pictures but this is a very steep hill that you have to walk to in order to reach the pitches, meaning I had to leave my motorcycle away from my tent which isn't the end of the world as they provide a little trolley to get your gear up there

a non issue really when compared with the quality of the pitches

Positiv Beautiful campsite with gorgeous views. Great location on the road into windermere. Lockers for charging phones. Excellent clean shower and toilet facilities. We loved the fire pit and buying wood on site was convenient.

Negativ It really is on a hill! I read it but didn't quite take in its on a hill!
