Not what we’d hoped
Bow Top gypsy caravan
Liked Nice views
Good showers
Disliked We stayed at the gypsy Bow top, originally booked 2 nights and last minute added a 3rd night. Unfortunately met 2 not sober women who said they have a caravan on site and like to “go for a night out” in the gypsy Bow top. Not what you want to hear when you’ve come for a quiet weekend away. We asked to cancel our final night and expected some sort refund or partial refund as this was an extra night but were told we could not get our money back and the only option is to return and stay another 2 nights. Where is the good will now a days? Hopefully you will spend our £70 on some improvements on the caravan, a bare minimum would be working fairy lights and maybe a tarp so it is possible to cook when it is raining?

From the manager: This review was not what we were hoped either,
May we just point out, when your partner spoke with us, advising us that you had decided to leave a day early because of the weather conditions - he asked us if it was possible to rebook the missing night in the future,
As a gesture of goodwill, we accepted this, but under the conditions that we do only accept a minimum of two night stay,
Your partner was happy with this and we were awaiting your new dates, we even suggested you could try our different accommodation’s,
As you can see on the terms and conditions, that no refund or discount is offered due to cancellation because of inclement weather conditions,
I think you will find that most campsite throughout the country are the same,
We didn’t offer you a refund but I think you will find we were must fair and offered you above and beyond would many others wouldn’t,
We find it most unfair for you to leave us a review like you have,
Good value holiday, clean facilities and nice environment
1 bedroom camping pod
Liked Nice, quiet area with clean facilities and plenty of space for children. We travelled as a family of 4 with two older children and we all enjoyed our stay. The South Lakes attraction like the Aquarium, Steam Railway, Boat pier, Fell Foot, etc are within a 10 minutes drive. The wooden huts are pretty and well maintained.
Disliked Some of us found sleeping on the bench beds quite uncomfortable but other members of the party have had no problems with it. It may suit smaller children more. Everything was as described, we knew about it beforehand, so no complaints.

Shepherd's hut
Liked Beautiful location, quiet & great site with lovely host. The shepherd hut was spacious but cosy, lovely & clean. Log fire crackling while going to sleep was dreamy.
Eggs from the farm were delish & while relaxing on the terrace, wild rabbits, a mouse & lizard passed by.
The most perfect stay & highly recommend!
