Backpacking the Dales Way? Stopping off en route to Scotland? Exploring as many of the Lake District’s fells and lakes as you can? Whatever your reason for heading to Cumbria, you can expect a warm welcome from the owners at Ings Kippers Campsite. This is a small adults-only basic site with a handful of pitches in the grounds of a private house, so you won’t find any large groups, families or dogs running about here. It’s a peaceful place that’s all geared up for backpackers, cyclists, bike-packers, solo campers and couples in search of space to relax; after 10pm all should be pretty quiet (other than perhaps the crackle of the logs in the firepit or the gentle swish of a car passing in the distance…) Cars are kept away from the pitches too, so you’ll start your stay by walking your gear a short distance along a grassy path between the Christmas trees on the steep Lakeland hillside to find your choice of level grass pitch. Compact tents (4-person maximum), light gear and strong tent pegs are the key items to pack here for the best experience. Each one has a firepit (with wood available to buy on site) and a great view out over the local fells, and you're welcome to light off-ground barbecues for an alfresco dinner. (Although you may like to note the award-wining pub and microbrewery five minutes’ walk away…) Free phone charging and ice-pack freezing are available at the house, and guests also have access to clean toilets and hot showers. Those hot showers will certainly be welcome after long days of adventures: wild swimming, paddleboarding and kayaking are all on the menu nearby, and there are lots of safe bike paths in the surrounding areas. Windermere is only two miles away from Ings Kippers, and lots of other top Lake District spots are within easy reach too – Ambleside, Coniston and Great Langdale among them. The main road is only about 100 metres from the site, and regular public transport services run nearby for sustainable travels.

Likte: Loved the facilities and ease of access to get there and reach the rest of the Lake District. Nice pitches with good views (if you don't mind the hill!) Regular buses and amenities near by for breakfast and dinner.

Likte: What a great little site!

I love the almost "wild camp" feel, helped by leaving your car in the area away from the campsite. I prefer parking on something more solid too, having a little rear wheel drive car!

The site is for singles/couples with no kids. A real bonus !!
As a single female, it was nice to see lots of other women on their own. If you are thinking of taking your first steps in to solo camping, Ings Kippers is a great place to start

I camped next to another tent but we pitched facing opposite directions so it felt I had the whole place to myself.
It was so peaceful. The others on site were respectful and kept noise to a minimum but all were so friendly.
Speaking of which, the lady who runs the place is lovely, friendly and helpful. I'm sure her husband is just as nice but I didn't get chance to see him.

Each spot (which you choose yourself) has its own picnic bench which is a real bonus for those of us who travel light.
They also have a fire pit. I never normally bother with those but, as the stay was a real bargain (less than half the price of a site not far away) I bought some wood, kindling and lighters for an equally good value £7. So glad I did!! Sat by the fire watching the sunset was beautiful.
As is the surrounding area. It's a lovely walk over School Knot to Windermere.
Over the road there is a lovely looking pub/brewery The Watermill, which does evening meals . In the morning there is a Pret a Manger. Next to that is a Londis if you need to pick up supplies. Just a short walk away is an honesty box (which takes PayPal!!!) selling fantastic eggs .

Other useful things on site include a freezer for icepacks, a library, 20p indoor or free outdoor showers and free lockers for charging devices.

It's really hard to find any faults with ings Kippers. Yes, it's close to a busy road but the nose is a gentle hum and the large amount of trees around help reduce noise levels.

Although I'm still baffled by the name 😃

Likte: Shower / bathroom . Freezer . Views , very warm welcome , small site. Pub 5 mins walk. Pret A Manger and petrol station with full shop across the road .

Likte ikke: We didn’t sleep because we were freezing so the road noise was the only dislike for us but we would definitely stay again . It’s a climb up and down to the pitches so be aware

Likte: What a beautiful site, the people were kind and friendly, the pitches were perfect with secluded little spots for privacy. The fire pits were a lovely touch. The compostable toilet was clean and easy to use as was the outdoor shower. Lockers and a campers library. Great location for hiking in the lakes. Really nice not to have lots of early morning noise from children. Very reasonably priced. Loved the whole thing, would totally recommend.

Likte ikke: Going up the hill with all our stuff but that's a small cost for the peace of a car free site.

Likte: Quiet and peaceful. Felt quite private wifh the trees around and sheltered. Easy no-fuss admission. I really liked the attention to energy and water saving and the recycling availability was the best I have seen at a campsite. Clearly labelled and well-provisioned with bins for everything. It was an ideal, simple but very well serviced campsite. I also liked the locker system with charging provision. Very much appreciated!

Likte: Everything about this camp site is great.

It is basic which makes it the perfect getaway in the Lakes

The views are beautiful and there some amazing walks which start and finish at the camp site.

Lokale attraksjoner

You can see the Old Man of Coniston from the pitches on a clear day… and if that whets your appetite for scenic outdoor pursuits, you’ve come to the right place. Wainwright baggers can easily get to Kentmere Horseshoe and the other Far Eastern Fells from Ings Kippers, and it’s an easy two-mile journey to the shores of Windermere for wild swims, watersports or waterside walks (or maybe a leisurely lake cruise if you need a little rest…) This area is well-known for its links with Beatrix Potter too – if you’d like to find out more about the author behind the classic children’s books, take a trip to The World of Beatrix Potter Attraction (10 minutes’ drive), and then visit her former home at Hill Top (half an hour). It’s worth stopping by in Kendal (15 minutes) too – it’s home to a castle, a lively arts scene and lots of shops and places to eat. For a real taste of the local area, head to Staveley (five minutes) and a tour of the Hawkshead Brewery (preceded by a walk up Reston Scar if you feel the need to earn that pint…)
