Liked: The views from the campsite were definitely the best thing.
Disliked: Not the campsites fault but we got unlucky as a lot of groups staying who partied until after 1am. We chose this site as it said no large groups

Liked: Very easy to find, and a very spacious field. The owner made regular rounds ensuring everything was ok and everyone was happy, offering fire pits and burning logs. There were more than enough toilet facilities, as well as what I assume was a faucet. Amazing view at the Ullswater lake, and no light pollution makes it a perfect spot for star gazing.

Liked: Just spent 2 nights here on our very first camping trip, me and my 16 year old son who has several disabilities. Communication was excellent prior to the trip and directions to the site were spot on. This is not a full time camp site, it operates on Fri and Sat nights only on a working farm, there are several field taps and porta loos. The owner Sophie is lovely and obviously a very hard working young lady, she checked on us about 3 times each day to see we were OK, they also offer fires and wood if you need them. The location is amazing and the views wonderful and even a pub just down the road. Me and my son loved our stay and will definitely return shortly. Thankyou Sophie for a great stay. The added bonus is Rocket the parrot whom flys about the site landing on the tents etc.

Liked: Amazing views, great toilet facilities (all clean and well maintained), great access to local amenities and tourist locations! Would definitely visit again! :)
Disliked: There were a few noisy groups of guys which stayed up all night drinking and listening to their music which made it very hard to sleep however this was not the Campsites fault!

Liked: Campsite was basic, as described, but served its purpose well. Good location, just pitch up and off you go. Shame 1/3 of field is sloped also so arrive early at busy times for a good pitch.
Disliked: Needs a few extra toilets and more toilet roll on offer as it often ran out. Also didn’t see the natural spring, which would do well to be signposted, assuming the water is drinkable.
