Beautiful site by the river.
Children lovely playing.
Lovely walks nearby and wast water.
Clean toilet/shower block.

No nearly shops or convenience onsite so take everything you need!

Small site, handy location for Scarefell Charity walk.

Would be good to advise guests of needing 50p for showers in advance. Plus 10minutes with a toddler as restrictive and needed a dash out to load more change into coin meter.

Also slightly tainted by someone’s dog pooing around the back of our pitch twice. We were concerned our dogs would get the blame.

The situation of the site next to the river and a 5minute walk to the Bridge Inn pub , food was good but over weekends busy and should be booked
Accessible to the hills and walks and not really a hustle bustle as Windermere

Only two toilets and two showers also charging 50p but we used our own facilities, but they are kept clean , again this is difficult during busy weekends and full

Local pub

Unless you like walking along narrow roads with no pavements this is not the place for you. Having paid quite an expensive fee the showers cost 50p and a hairdryer 20p but the exact coin only. No dog walking area even though dogs cost extra so not sure what we paid for. No Wi-Fi

Location, set up, facilities, friendliness of staff, peaceful and quiet. Lovely pub next door, beautiful scenery.

Small well run site on the river. Peaceful and relaxing vibe. Cleanliness of toilets and showers immaculate. Friendly site manager great with advice of where to walk dog. Would definitely recommend. Great for access to most beautiful part of Lake District

We stayed at the Old Post Office campsite for 4 nights from the 25/4/25. We had provisionally booked back in January but after the temporary closure of the campsite we spoke to Gemma the new campsite manager and was put at ease by her. So we rebooked our stay. I am so pleased we did, the camp site is fantastic and Gemma is doing a wonderful job of looking after the site and has plenty of plans for 2025.
The showers and toilets were spotless and lovely and warm. I felt safe on site, and we pitched directly by the water (picked and recommended by Gemma). I sat with my brew at 6am watching the heron which was a regular visitor. Our friends stayed at the Bridge hotel next door and after booking them in they were able to visit us on our pitch and we enjoyed a glass (or two). We did eat at the Bridge Inn and this was equally as beautiful. The food was stunning and service was fantastic. I would highly recommend and we definitely will be back.

Gorgeous Camping site, small quiet and peaceful. Everything you need is there. A stream, great pub, clean facilities, very well maintained with outstanding natural beauty. One of the nicest campsite we have been on. We will definitely return as we had such a great time. 5 *

Nothing
Would recommend selling afew shop items,
Like ice, milk, etc

This is a fantastic site and one of our favourites.
Beautiful position next to a river. Generous pitches. Clean and tidy. Warm welcome on arrival. Handy pub just a short walk over the bridge. They also do takeaway. Lovely dog walking.
This visit was on a busy bank holiday but we still found the site quiet at night and it never felt too crowded.
The site is well positioned for visiting Wasdale. Wastwater, Eskdale and beyond with many beautiful walks or drives for the less mobile. It is only a short drive to St Bees a beautiful sandy beach where our four legged friends were able to run free.
We look forward to coming back again soon

WiFi patchy but we were told this so not a surprise
