Blaithwaite House

Ik was blij met Views across the valley. You can camp as a group. Back office staff friendly and helpful when there was an issue with booking.

Ik was niet blij met Water disruption on two days out of 7, WC in same unit as shower so had to queue when busy morning and evening. Floor of the shower/ WC units frequently wet and muddy. Cleaned most days in morning but weren't cleaned on a Tuesday so ran out of hand towels and toilet paper in many units. While cleaned in the morning, the shower/ wc units were mucky by lunchtime especailly when raining. Pitch on a slope and even with levellers could not get the van level. Across the whole site a lot of general maintenance needed- broken toilet seats, broken locks, broken hinges. Crazy golf clubs broken, pool table: white ball kept getting stuck. No coffee on bar as machine broken, playgrounds showing age and wear, including protruding nail heads where wood had broken away.

Ik was blij met Great campsite. We chose it because of the location- it is close to both Lake District and Hadrians Wall. The showers were clean even though it was very busy (school holidays). There is woods to walk the dogs; it’s quite big and the paths are clean. There are a few play fields for those with children as well. There is a pub where you can grab some drinks and they have a pizza van on certain nights.

They pre-allocate the pitches so you don’t have to worry about squeezing between tents.

Ik was niet blij met You cannot park by pitch. You need to leave the car in the car park. This is usually a dealbreaker for us, but they let you load and unload by the tent so we didn’t mind.

Ik was blij met The site is fantastic, with good on-site facilities. Toilets and shower were clean, and the shower warm. Lovely on-site playgrounds meant the kids made friends and had somewhere to play. Easy journey to lakes and lots of useful info about walks. Staff really helpful - moved pitches around so the two families were next to each other. We ordered a firepit and everyone was helpful setting up and providing sufficient firewood to keep it going. Pitch is flat, and everything is easily walkable. On-site bar is useful too!

Ik was blij met Lovely place to stay! Well maintained grounds, plenty for the children to do. My youngest daughter had an accident (no fault of the place) and the owner helped with everything. First aid, directions and come to see us the next day, just to check on her. The staff were all fabulous! All very helpful. Plenty of space, lovely views. Close to plenty of things also. All round a lovely few days again. We will be booking back up very soon

Ik was niet blij met Nothing, we had no complaints

Ik was blij met Leaving!

Ik was niet blij met Rats everywhere on the site! Showers, toilets not cleaned. Unhygienic. We booked for 3 nights, left after 1 as that’s when we discovered the rats in broad day light, the toilets hadn’t been cleaned or looked near by staff in over 24hours. Loud / parting until 2.45 am but as I say there was absolutely no staff on site. We emailed the owner and gave them the opportunity to refund our money… have never heard back

Ik was blij met The grounds were clean, location was great and staff were lovely!

The shower area was one of the best I’ve seen on a campsite. Water was hot and area was super clean.

Had everything we needed.
