    Everything, large pitches, steam running along the field, plenty of footpaths to explore and a pub within walking distance. No issues at all with the facilities - other reviewers seem to overlook the value and the pop-up nature of this site, but it worked for our group of 8. Showers were hot, toilets all working and kept stocked by the friendly staff. This site is a fantastic base to explore the borrowdale/newlands area. Pitchup says not dog friendly in FAQs, this is definitely not the case, our dog had a great time in the stream and walks.

    A lovey setting and very relaxed and friendly staff.
    There's only a short walk (5mins max) to the pub up the hill.
    Plenty of space
    Fantastic views
    Showers were good and hot
    Keswick is only a short drive or bike ride away

    Disliked: 

    Not much really
    Basic facilities, but it is a campsite
    Its a bit remote, but that's not necessarily a bad thing

From the manager...

    Site was well appointed and the staff very helpful. The showers were some of the best I've seen given they were a temporary installation.

    Disliked: 

    Only one sink for washing up meant long waits to clean the plates.

From the manager...

Hi Mark,

Yes this is something we are working on getting more washing up sinks!

Kind Regards

    Nice atmosphere, great to be able to hire fire pits and buy wood on site. Pretty site, short walk up the hill to the pub. Showers powerful and hot. Water taps around site. Rural/ wild camping vibe but with toilets and showers etc!

If you want to experience 1970's camping come here.07/28/2025

    Location and size of field...level and few stones so easy to pitch up

    Disliked: 

    Facilities.
    Site has two fields , had over 100 pitches up, min 2 person a tent, majority have 3 or 4, especially families

    1 sink to wash in...tepid water...
    No drying facilities
    4 showers
    4 male toilets...most had broken seats/ broken toilet holders.

    1 block of 2 had no running water...I'm sure that breaching H&S

    If I wanted to know what camping in 1975 was like, I now know

    Won't be returning to this site again

From the manager...

Hi,

We are really sorry to hear you didn't have a pleasant experience.

We did have 2 families that had 4 tents and 2 rather large gazebos which did make the field feel fuller but there are rules and regulations we have to stick too.

Our showers and toilets are the very best we can hire and so far we have had great feedback. We don't advertise drying facilities either so that maybe why you are disappointed you didn't locate these.

We really hope you find a more suitable campsite in the future maybe a more commercial site that will suit your expectations, but please do expect to pay more.

Kind Regards
Ruby
