Waters Edge Caravan Park

Small stream running through the site and fishing area

Family-friendly site on the edge of the southern Lake District
Handy location a mile from the M6 and a 15-minute drive from Kendal
Well-maintained site with bar, picnic area, pool table and TV room

Lake, forest, and spectacular countryside… what’s not to like about this fantastic setting in the southern Lake District? Add in level pitches, a goodly collection of facilities and a friendly welcome on site and you should be all set for a fab family break at Waters Edge Caravan Park. Because of its handy location close to the M6, this is a nifty spot for getting out to all of the Lake District and Yorkshire, or even popping up to Scotland (it's only an hour's drive away). After day trips, head over to the clubhouse to ponder the fine selection of beers and spirits in the well-stocked bar – if the sun’s out, take them out to sip in the fresh air on the patio. There's a friendly vibe at this place, so just try not to get too competitive playing pool with new pals or watching sport together in the TV lounge. For food, you may like to create a picnic or fire up one of the barbecues over by reception (pick up bits at the shop on site or set out for a well-stocked store half a miles away. Not in the mood to cater? Make a break for meals at the pub a couple of minutes' walk away. Other amenities around the place include outdoor taps for your drinking water, a washing-up area, a laundry room and bathrooms with individual washing cubicles, showers and accessible toilets.

What customers say

Lovely, well-kept park between streams, with a peaceful vibe. Guests rave about clean facilities, friendly staff, and M6/Lake District access. Small bar. Good for stopovers or longer stays. Minor notes: occasional highway noise, facilities can be far from some spots.

Powered cement/asphalt travel trailer campsite

Liked Freundlicher Empfang, der Platz sieht gut 👍 aus, die Duschen 🚿 und Toiletten 🚽 waren sauber und wohl erst kürzlich renoviert worden.

Ein ruhiger Ort, mit einem angrenzenden Bach und einer alten Kirche ( meine ich zumindest) da kann man sehr gut entspannen!

Selbst für die Minicamper wurden Attraktionen errichtet! 👍

Disliked Das wäre nörgeln auf hohem Niveau, wenn man will, findet man überall das Haar in der Suppe!

Local attractions

Head into Kendal (15 minutes' drive) for golf days or to shelter indoors at the local leisure centre, which has a pool, squash and gym. You may also like to take wanders around the town's castle ruins and museums or pop in for a pint (or a tour) at Hawkshead Brewery. Hop on horseback and make your own great western adventures in the surrounding woodland and countryside with the nearest horse riding centre (10 minutes' drive). If water-based antics are more your thing, it's a 15-minute drive to a lake for waterskiing, windsurfing, sailing and fishing. Or keep an eye out to see what's on at the Westmorland County Showground (10 minutes' walk), which often stages smashing family-friendly events. If you fancy exploring the wider region, it's an easy drive to Morecambe Bay beach (20 minutes), and the Yorkshire Dales (25 minutes). For kid-pleasing days out, aim to lose them for a while at Lakeland Maze Farm Park or head off to meet the animals at Lakeland Wildlife Oasis; both are around 10 minutes away by car.
