I liked it was a working farm, on a hillside with amazing views. Can walk down to village using the disused railway line, all woodland, so shaded. Village has pubs, food, butchers and shop.
Each pitch has a fire pit
Friendly owner and pet dogs that can smell a bbq from a mile away. Toilets and showers ‘quirky’ complete with spiders webs … don’t expect 5* luxury loos/showers

Lovely quiet site. Clean toilets and showers with warm water. Louise and family very welcoming and happy to help. The two mischievous cairn terriers that came to chill with us on an evening.

Walk to the village was nice. About 40 minutes flat walk, two pubs, butcher, baker etc.

The bugs! Don't forget your insect repellent and citronella EVERYTHING.

We loved the campsite, Louise was incredibly welcoming and explained where everything was as soon as we arrived. Good facilities and excellent views of the hills from where we pitched up.

Quiet, peaceful, friendly, lovely views. A working farm and that adds to the pleasure of staying here.

The view from the campsite is amazing. Also great location near good hiking trails in the lake district.

Campsite setting in the countryside with good facilities and walking distance to the local village nearby. Friendly host Louise

Owners were vey friendly

Owners were so friendly that they let people pitch their tents at 1am, loads of loud talking, banging car doors and even setting a car alarm off. Another arrived at 11pm and shone their lights through the tents and let their engine idle for at last 30 mins. Choked to sleep.

Louise was very welcoming and offered me a choice of fields to park up in. The views are lovely and the site is quiet (apart from the 5am cockerel, but hey, it’s a working farm!). The campsite is rustic but has everything that you need-rustic but clean loos and showers, always loo roll, always handwash, and a washing up station with hot water, washing up bowls & washing up liquid provided. The loos had a bit of trouble (one got blocked, then the other flush broke) but both issues were sorted quickly and without fuss which is exactly what’s needed from an attentive host. Coniston is a 10-15 min drive along the scenic road so easy to nip back to town.

Only minor negative is the hot water in the loo sinks didn’t work, but hot water was available immediately outside in the washing up area.
