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

New owners trying their best to turn the place around, they were very helpful from the minute we arrive and nothing was to much of an ask.
Toilets spotless and the site is beautiful, if you want a quiet picturesque break stay here.

Lovely clean site. Good showers and washing up areas. Pub right next door.
Good instructions on arrival. Wasdale and the west coast in close proximity.

When I booked I thought I’d booked with electric hookup but my confirmation email said none electric. When I checked they are both the same price.
In my opinion and in every campsite I’ve been to none electric is always cheaper.
The electric hookup pitches were flatter with more room also.

Friendly host to greet us on arrival whose instruction and information were easy to follow (we arrived Friday afternoon 2nd May ) .
Layout of site was easy to use , toilets and showers were impeccably maintained and clean , facilities on site for washing etc good .
Difficult to find anything at fault , a first class experience and we’d stay again in our camper.

Signs to say which piece of grass is yours for putting your garden furniture etc next to your pitch as this caused some confusion . You should have the grass to the right or left of where you park not either . Other than that a fantastic site

The location of the campsite and its proximity to sites/attractions/villages & towns was good. Toilets and showers were clean, staff friendly.

No set pitches for non electric, it was a relatively small field with a first come first serve attitude to space and the site itself was relatively small. No camp shop for small amenities.

The setting with the river running through. we stayed on fully serviced pitches the site has male and female toilets, two toilets in each and two shower cubicles showers are 50p so take some change, always cleaned during our four night stay plus a disabled toilet, undercover pot wash, chemical disposal easy to use, the tent pitches looked flat for pitching. two campers fridges in the info room( they looked new) the wifi is patchy but works near the office we didnt have much data signal on our phones tesco/02 network tv reception was o.k, we spoke to the new management very friendly and seem to be taking the site in the right direction for the future.

Had a beautiful time. Thank you Gemma for our lovely stay. The site has everything you need. Hidden gem, the area and location is so tranquil. Will definitely be returning.

Nothing

What a little gem, idyllic, peaceful site on the banks of the River. Generous, level pitches with gravel, grass or woodchip. Showers and loos in a block, well maintained and clean
Literally 5mins stroll to the pub. Gemma was very friendly and helpful, will definitely be back

No WiFi signal but not a huge problem as the pub has free WiFi

Having visited this site on a regular basis nearly 50 years ago as a young boy and having a trip down memory lane,it’s still as beautiful and quiet as the old days!!
The Old post office,obviously upgraded from the last time I was here, was brilliant!!!!
Great staff, excellent facilities and beautiful quiet pitch by the river!!!
Will definitely not leave it as long for our next visit.
Thank you very much for a very pleasant stay!!!!
