Unpowered grass tent site
Liked: Fantastic lakeside location. Excellent access for kayaking or paddle boarding. Lovely onsite pop up bar which is open on an evening and morning for coffee. Very friendly staff. We liked the fact we could choose our own pitch rather than have one allocated and the wheelbarrows were very handy to transport belongings from the car to the tent. The showers were hot and there were pegs to hang your towel/ wash bag outside of the cubicle. Great that there's somewhere to charge phones and there were also fridges in the chill out zone.
Disliked: Definitely bring crocs or flip flops for the toilets. The floor was constantly muddy near the showers which I can only imagine would be worse when it's wet outside. There was never any soap to wash hands that had ran out so bring your own. I would say they could do to be cleaned twice a day rather than once, but equally it's camping, it's not designed to be glamorous!

Liked: Lovely friendly site, nice welcome when we checked in. It's a "pop up" so the toilets and showers are in a container but they all worked and were cleaned to a reasonable standard. There's a bar on site with some fire pits and chairs so it's a nice spot itlf you want to be social. Very close to the lake (my son ran from the top of the site to the lake in 2 minutes) with a little pebble shore to launch from. We really liked this site and may well go back.
Disliked: Just make sure you use the link in the booking email or what3words to find the site. Google got confused as the Graythwaite estate is quite large.

Liked: This place is just brilliant ! Stunning location right on the shores of Windermere with easy access to the lake. Really clean facilities with on site fridge and freezer to use as well as somewhere to cook and eat under cover if you want and even charge your phone. Funky little pop up bar and cool fire pits to hire. Friendly hosts too. What more could you want ?
Disliked: Nothing !
