You don’t have to go very far into the Lake District National Park to start appreciating the gorgeous views – and the area around Helton Campsite is a case in point. This spacious Cumbria site is only a couple of miles from the M6 at the northern end of the park so it’s a handy spot for a stopover or a quick fix of country air. That said, the scenery around here is lovely enough that you could certainly settle here for several days – pitches have gorgeous open views over the surrounding countryside, and there are lots of places to get out for a walk nearby too. Pooley Bridge is about 10 minutes’ drive away for outings on and around Ullswater, and you’ll also easily be able to get to other top spots like Aira Force waterfall and Haweswater (or Skiddaw and Helvellyn if you’d rather do some climbing). Life on site is fairly simple, with just the essentials provided to keep you going: pitches have access to a toilet and fresh mountain water for drinking, and there’s a field where families can play games. Dogs are welcome to join you here for Lake District jaunts, and there’s space to give them a run around on site plus plenty of choice for walking routes nearby. This corner of the Lake District has several choices for eating out at pubs and the like, but you’re also welcome to light barbecues or campfires on site if you’d rather settle in for an evening of outdoor cooking. There’s a convenience store just over a mile away in the village of Askham (which also has a pub and an open-air swimming pool).

Likte: Great location, easy to find. Brilliant communication from owners before and during visit, they brought us a fire pit and logs no problem!
Clean toilets and water available.
Lovely views and nice to be able to pick your own pitch.
There is also phone signal which is a bonus.
Would definitely recommend and return.

Likte ikke: Other people who just don’t know how to behave and be respectful. Up drinking and shouting till the early hours of the morning. However this is no fault of the owners at all.

Likte: Awesome, zero hassle, rocked in around 10pm and just pitched up with roof tent - setup within minutes and looking over the sheep and lambs in the adjacent field - bliss. Woke at 6am, back to sleep for four hours to wake to a new day. WCs super, uber excellent - only issue was... oh no wait, no problems at all, it is awesome, camping like it should be with the benefit of a lovely loo!

Likte ikke: Nothing - thanks.

Likte: No frills field to camp with clean basic amenities and stunning views. Everyone who was pitched seemed happy and friendly. We met the owner and his son, both were friendly and accommodating, making regular checks to ensure everything was fine as it was booked out.

Likte: We really liked the location of the campsite. It is a short drive to most places but also has really nice walks around. The walk into pooley bridge from the campsite was lovely.
Great views from the site too!
The facilities were basic but were clean throughout our stay.
The staff were polite and friendly, they come around to check the site regular and top up any wood for fire (this was also very easy to pre book!)

Likte ikke: One group were a little bit loud after 11pm but there’s always one!

Likte: Convenient location

Likte ikke: The facilities were the bare minimum - at the price of a campsite with good facilities. The shower only had cold water. It was extremely noisy, with large groups shouting and playing music through the night. Don't book ahead - it's just an open field with no assigned plots.

Lokale attraksjoner

Walking trails for all abilities are plentiful in the Lake District – from Helton your options include lakeside ambling by Ullswater (10 minutes’ drive) or the short stroll to Aira Force waterfall (25 minutes) or more challenging outings like the ascent of Helvellyn (half an hour). Those aren’t the only options for exploring though – the area around Pooley Bridge (10 minutes) has boat hire, various watersports and horse riding centres. The natural views are spectacular, of course, but there are some lovely buildings to see too – nearby Lowther Castle & Gardens (10 minutes) is worth a visit for the grand building, the 130-acre gardens and the adventure playground, and the Grade I-listed Dalemain Mansion & Historic Gardens (15 minutes) is equally lovely. If the weather takes a turn, there are several things to keep you busy in Keswick (35 minutes), including the Derwent Pencil Museum, Puzzling Place and tours of the Keswick Brewing Company.
