Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Went with my sister , wanted a quiet spot , which we found in the over flow field. The main area we found was more suited to families and groups travelling together. Excellent site for all !! Great reception , good little shop. Small coffee shop and a tiny chip shop that is worth a visit ! Fantastic play area for children . Toilets and showers were clean and had plenty of hot water .

Disliked: Nothing to dislike about this site.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Very welcoming and friendly staff - showers were lovely and the facilities were kept very clean. Bar was well stocked and the children's play area was great and could be used by a range of ages. Shop was well equipped and offered some local pies and cakes. Make sure you arrive early as non-electric pitches are first come, first serve. Lovely, dog friendly site; will be coming back.

Disliked: Bit of a long queue for fish and chips but lovely to have this facility on site. If they expanded the coffee shop to provide breakfast they would make an absolute fortune!

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch

Liked: Location, facilities on the whole, cleanliness of pitches and showers were lovely and warm.

Disliked: Some toilets were not the best in terms of cleanliness. Only 8 showers for whole of site.

Recommend to friends Visit again

From the manager: Thank you for your feedback, we are glad to hear you enjoyed your stay, however regarding the shower and toilet blocks we have 3 shower and toilet blocks available on site, this adds up to 12 showers in total. We do like to make sure that all our toilet and shower blocks are cleaned and maintained to high standards. As this was a bank holiday and the weather was not the best, we do tend to have issues with grass and mud, but our maintenance team do go round and check the toilet and shower blocks as much as possible through out the day.

Fully-serviced gravel touring pitch (large, twin axle)

Liked: Excellent location for Ullswater lake and access to the Ullswater Way for walks. On site Fish & Chip Shop may have a short waiting time for your order but the food is very good. Found the staff friendly & helpful staff both in reception & around the park. Had good evening entertainment in the clubhouse and the bar prices were reasonable.

Local attractions

The Lake District doesn’t skimp on swish sights and attractions, and many of the best things to see and do in the national park – from bushcraft and watersports to golf and tennis – are within easy driving distance of the site. For classic Cumbrian walks Hallin Fell is a 20-minute drive away and the market town of Keswick, where you can go from perusing a pencil museum to dancing around the megalithic Castlerigg Stone Circle, is reachable in 25 minutes. A bit south of the town of Penrith (20 minutes) are the prehistoric Mayburgh Henge and Norman Brougham Castle. Other well-known Lake District settlements are also within easy reach along winding roads, like to Windermere (45 minutes away) and Ambleside (50 minutes). And if you fancy a crack at cantering instead of sitting in the car? Horse riding can be had from stables within a 15-minute drive, while guests who prefer roving on a revving vehicle can squat upon a quad bike and set off into the local lands (25 minutes from the park).
