The setting is absolute perfection! Small campsite with easy access to the lake just a few steps away. For the price you absolutely cannot go wrong! It made a 5 day stay affordable for us.

The owner, Amy, was so friendly and accommodating. She was able to manage some guests that were not being respectful… they were extremely loud until 4am and hounding other campsite guests into the small hours. She was fair in her approach, offered them a refund and asked them to leave. We all appreciated her swift action to enable the rest of us an enjoyable stay.

The toilets were cleaned daily, which we really appreciated given the heat we were blessed with. If you’re wanting showers then this isn’t the site for you, but if you’ve got a solar shower or taking dips in the lake and you’re happy with that, then I would truly recommend booking!

The pub, the Coniston Inn, is literally next to the field, so for anyone wanting a cheeky drink and some pub grub, it’s just a hop, skip and a jump away.

The pitches are flat and there is more than ample room for set up. Raised campfires / bbq permitted, which just adds to that nostalgia of camping.

We loved everything about this campsite, from pitch to owner… so much so that we ended up staying an extra 2 nights, which Amy was more than happy to accommodate. Can’t wait to go back next year and we will be upping our stay from 5 nights to at least 7!

I wanted a quiet camp near the lake and indeed it was perfect. Camped right next to a lake with other campers further away. Jumped into the water as soon as we woke up and it was divine. I didn't expect anything more.

There are toilets on site but they are just what they are, not dirty but not pleasant either. There is nothing you can do about them.

Spacious site, right on water's-edge. Half a mile to walk to the village, and the walk there is scenic and safe (off the road). Felt secure as the communication with the site owner was spot-on. Right next door to a country pub, although I didn't visit this time. Other campers were friendly and sensible - fortunately there were no wild parties or raves so the only sounds during the night were from the very vocal owls!

I arrived on a Sunday and found I'd forgotten a few bits and bobs for my tea! Coniston, being a small village, doesn't have a lot of shops. The only one that was open was the spar attached to the petrol station. It was absolutely mobbed, and I struggled to get some stuff. An honesty shop in the site would maybe be a suggestion? Although, to be fair, I wouldn't expect it to sell sausages which is what I was really hoping for for my tea! Anyway, not really a 'dislike' - the site was lovely and I will definitely be coming back.

Location near the lake

The other users of area and manageress of location was rude and un thoughtfull

A simple site with great access straight into the lake. Quieter and smaller than others around seen around the lake. Can’t fault this place at all and would definitely return.

Nothing, even the portaloos were OK!

Location is perfect for your paddle boards and a short distance to the village.

Amy is lovely and is always seen on site cleaning the portaloos.

Ice cream van came everyday, certainly a bonus!

We had a great stay!

Right next to the lake, the pub and quick walk to the village. Campsite was clean and quiet. It was the ideal place reallly. Shame it’s not open for longer as we wanted to come back next month.

Portaloo’s a little smelly. Needed hand soap.

Stunning scenery pitch is lakeside so a nice dip on a warm day is a must also a lovely quiet family site either kids or no kids. Local pub well priced and food was great will definately be going here again first time back since childhood

Cant fault 1 bit first time camping ever and loved every part of our experience
