What customers say

Fantastic, peaceful spot with lovely nature. Basic but clean facilities, friendly owners. Great for walks, near a pub. Showers a bit of a walk, ground can be muddy when wet.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Great location for Scaffell pike. Beautiful views.

Washing up facilities and toilets on site.
Use of a shower 6 min walk from Campsite. And a little cafe/small shop.

Thrrs is also a pub nearby which is a short walk and access to a bus service.

Dan B.

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Fabulous location, decent pitch size, good toilet/shower facilities, quiet. Even managed to get a bit of mobile internet (Giffgaff/O2) to check the weather. The Yew Tree pub is 5 mins walk away and does lovely food. Pints are a little pricey but they have a captive audience, so why not!

Disliked I only discovered pizzas weren't on after I arrived. Understandable reason but as they'd known for a few weeks it would have been nice to have been informed beforehand, but that is a very minor gripe, and the pub is open Weds-Sun.

Liked We really like this little campsite! Owners are friendly, site is well kept and clean, and the location is just perfect.
The fact that there is a good bus network running through seatoller and an excellent pub round the corner are just added bonuses too😊

Unpowered grass campervan site

Liked Amazing views, great location, enjoyed my stay. Toilets clean and central in campsite with fresh drinking water available. Dan was very helpful and suggested a lovely walk I could do if the weather wasn’t great. As it was I managed a great walk up Castle Crag and over to Derwent water and back. Just stunning everywhere.

Disliked Nothing ☺️

Liked Laid back feel with lovely clean facilities and a personal welcome from the owner. Right by the river with lovely views. Shop and homemade pizzas at the farm on certain days. I’ll make sure I book for those days next time!

Disliked I couldn’t see as many van pitches as advertised, but maybe a couple were using two. Definitely bring levelling blocks if you’re parking a van in the field. Showers are a short walk away, not sure how accessible it is for those with mobility issues.

Local attractions

Dust off those hiking boots, for Seatoller’s surrounds are stacked with walking trails to suit all comers, from those seeking a gentle stroll through woodland and across heather-strewn fells to those in search of more vertical challenges. The beginning of a couple of the national park’s top climbs are easy to get to too – Great Gable (an hour and a half) and mighty Scafell (a couple of hours). Roam a little further afield for hikes on Catbells (15 minutes’ drive), around the Castlerigg stone circle (25 minutes) or on the slopes of Helvellyn (half an hour away, and a fine choice for mountain bikers too). If you’d like to have a crack at climbing in a controlled environment, try the via ferrata route at Honister Slate Mine, five minutes away, and worth a stop for an underground mine tour even if you’re not up to clinging on to crags. All sound a little tiring? Less demanding days out include the Lake District Wildlife Park (half an hour) and the sculpture trail at Rydal Hall Gardens (40 minutes). It’s worth knocking around Keswick for a bit too, visiting the eccentric Puzzling Place exhibition and Derwent Pencil Museum or taking tipples at the town’s brewery. Alpaca trekking at Lingholm Estate and Whinlatter Forest are some other splendid days out.
