Hollin Head Campsite

A aimé Very quiet campsite as we chose a field away from the main one and there was plenty of space even on Bank holiday weekend in good weather. Was excellent for a one night stay, lots of flat pitches. The host was really nice and guided us, giving us lots of freedom of choice.

N'a pas aimé Porta loo's weren't great although the lady does try her best to keep them clean. A shower block would be amazing. We ended up having a swim in Wast water after a sweaty hike which just about did the trick but with no pot washing facilities so I think multiple nights would have been difficult

Réponse du gestionnaire : Sorry to read about the porta loos my Porta loo company let me down with an extra toilet I did my best to keep them clean on a busy hot bank holiday I take pride in my porta loos I’ve never had a negative comment in the six years I’ve been running my campsite I wished you had come over to see me
the spare field was busier then the main pitch up campsite
Sorry I couldn’t give you a 10/10 experience

A aimé This campsite in our eyes was perfect it was great value your money. Although there are no showers and the only place to get signal is by the porter loos, when we needed directions to other towns but we couldn’t complain. It was peaceful, the porter loos were surprisingly amazingly clean and smelt nice for porter loos. The owners were warm, welcome, knowledge and chatty. No issues with the grass on campsite or access to the lake. It wasn’t busy and everyone was nicely spread out. You had a pub at the top of the road for drinks and food, a 10 minute drive to the local town for the shop or a 25 min drive for the spar or co up. Not to forget Wast Water was 26mins away! This is a must see. Liz will tell you what you can also do round the area.

N'a pas aimé No showers but if you like wild swimming or brave enough like us you can wash off or take a quick refreshing dip in the lake further up on the campsite or closer down on the main pitch. We preferred further up as it was peaceful. We did have to pick up dog muck but I guess these are the people with dogs fault really not the hosts. We could hear music at 2 in the morning but I think it came from the pitch further up but we quickly went back asleep.

A aimé From first contact with Liz to the last good bye, it was all good, plenty of room in the camping field, very very clean toilets probably the best portable toilets I have ever used, Liz is very helpful and cheerful, nothing was too much trouble for her. Highly recommend

A aimé Quiet campsite with idyllic scenery located next to the crystal clear River Esk.
The host was warm and welcoming from arrival and had allocated large pitches even when the campsite was 'fully booked'.
Thanks for having us!

A aimé Perfect little campsite, if you like to get away from it all!
Very basic facilities (portaloos and cold water) but what else do you need when you're right by the river?
Liz is just wonderful and always on hand to help, and sells the best eggs and cucumbers!
I will definitely be back :-)

A aimé Site was small and very lovely camping by the river with beautiful mountain views.
Owner was lovely, kept checking in to make sure all was ok, helpful with places to go.
Toilets were kept exceptionally clean, (the cleanest portaloos i have seen.

N'a pas aimé Road was a little noisy in the day but went quiet at night, obviously not the owners fault or would deter from visiting again.
