The Willows

Ik was blij met The size of the pitch, the bathrooms were fantastic, the location was very peaceful. Thank you for the little touches in the showers and washing up area.

Ik was blij met Everything! Small but perfectly formed! Quiet location yet right in the heart of things. Very, very welcoming owners.

Ik was blij met Everything was great , communication really good , helpful and friendly, lovely views and not far from Keswick with a good bus service almost on the doorstep so we didn’t have to move the camper

Ik was niet blij met The only thing I’d say is that there’s no signage saying the name of the site anywhere , there is another site near the top of the drive so initially it was a little confusing as to if we were at the right place

Ik was blij met The view, the location, clean facilities, the tranquility.

Ik was niet blij met Not getting site and payment details until minutes before we were leaving home. Not meeting the host at all.

Van de manager: Hello Elaine, sorry we didnt catch you I am down there a minimum of twice a day seven days a week and we live just 50 metres from the site (at the back of the first farm building) by foot so if anyone needs anything the information of how to contact us in the information you first received from the third party agent you used to book your stay, Pitch-up, then it is on your welcome information sent on the day of arrival and also on each door of each shower/toilet block. Really pleased you enjoyed the view and the location we are so so lucky, and I am pleased you were happy with the facilities which I do take a pride in keeping clean for everyone. Thanks again for staying, Lindsey

Ik was blij met the site was very good, pitches good, toilets and showers all clean.
Lovely veiws

Ik was niet blij met No signs for the site from the road or even as we arrived on site, as there is no reception we were not sure if we were in the right place

Van de manager: Hi Michael

Thank you for your review, we send directions with pictures to assist to show exactly where the site is on the morning of arrival, unfortunately we are not permitted to have road side signage by the Lake District National Park Planning Authority as if we had a sign it would set a precedent for all. We have however just had a new Braithwaite Farm sign erected by the local highways at the end of the road and that has proven to be a big help but I do appreciate if you hadn't read the welcome information and seen the picture step by step guide of where we are it isn't so easy. To help future guests with this we are also on Google Maps and if you type in The Willows Keswick it brings you right to the campsite. It does say on Pitch Up on our site information that we don't have a reception so guests are aware of this when booking as we live just behind the farm buildings we are always just a phone call away. I really appreciate your feedback as it does all really help us and also other guests who I know read both your review and our responses so thank you again.

Ik was blij met The location , just a 10 minute drive into keswick, the size of this touring park - not too big , and the electric hook up & water on each pitch made life easy.
The toilets & shower facilities are very modern lovely & clean & there are even toiletries provided - shower gels, soaps etc - the showers were just the right temperature , a lot of thought has gone into making this site comfortable & mostly practical & it is a great base for exploring the area.
Finally the owner / manager lady is very hardworking & friendly and knows the area well useful for ideas on places to visit 😀
We will be back.

Ik was niet blij met Only one problem really - the pot washing facilities are 'inside' one of the shower / toilet rooms ( 3 of these in same block) and that means if somebody is using the loo or shower the outer door is locked & you have to wait to wash up.... almost every sight I have stayed on put the 'pot washing ' area outside under a shelter ... 🤔

Van de manager: Hi Mark,

Thanks so much for your review, we are currently working on the pot wash and hopefully come Autumn the middle toilet is being made into a pot wash area and small drying area , but I will see if we can get a make-shift outside sink sorted in the meanwhile. It's the first time anyone has commented on it but if it's something I need to change I definitely will. Thanks again for staying and your feedback is really appreciated as it all helps to make it better, thank you

Ik was blij met Great pitch, EHU with water, level hard standing, great views and fantastic weather.

Ik was niet blij met Though the pitches were a little too close together, felt a little too close for comfort at times.

Van de manager: Thank you for your review Denis, I am sorry you felt you were too close to the other pitches, sometimes inevitably if everyone aims for the same side of the site it can happen, I hope to see you again,

Lindsey

Ik was blij met Lovely quiet, clean site. 10min walk to local pub for Sunday lunch and lots of walks from the door step. Friendly, helpful owners.
