  • Idyllic riverside Caravan site in the heart of the Lake District,
Our riverside pitches are well placed to enjoy the Ullswater valley. With private woodland walks, access to private lakeshore (5mins walk) on a private 220acre Lakeland estate. We are located at the southern tip of the picturesque and tranquil Ullswater valley. We have five pitches, all of which take awnings. The site has electric hook-up for each pitch, a cold water tap, a chemical waste disposal point, and a launderette nearby. Ullswater, Engaland's most beautiful lake, is only a minute's walk away from the site, and there are so many walks from our doorstep that you need never drive out of the site during your stay. You can tackle Helvellyn, St Sunday's Pike, Dollywagon Pike, Place Fell, the Howtown to Glenridding lakeshore path, Angle tarn, Fairfield.... the list is endless. Or you can just bimble around our wonderful estate with miles of private footpaths.
