Wasdale Lakeside Campsite

Gostou This campsite is absolutely fantastic — perfect for families, groups, or solo travellers. It is fully dog-friendly, and you never feel cramped or overlooked — there is plenty of space between pitches, so you have total privacy. You can park wherever suits you, and there is never any shortage of room.

Campfires and barbecues can be used here. If you need to borrow one or buy some logs, the farmer is more than willing to accommodate and will do anything to make your stay perfect.

The campsite itself is surrounded by mountains and really peaceful countryside — it feels wonderfully remote and yet so welcoming. It sits right beside a river, and it's only a short 4-minute walk down to the lake. There's a lovely coffee shop at the lakeside serving delicious ice creams — great for children, and the dogs will absolutely love it!

Drigg Beach is only a short drive away — beautiful and full of shells, pretty stones, and wonderful sand dunes. I will definitely be coming back!

Gostou Amazing location, the toilets were cleaned really often and it’s possible if you want to go pay to shower and the nearby youth hostel. One of the best campsites we’ve ever been to without a doubt and it wasn’t too crowded.

Gostou It’s remoteness was just about right for this type of camping I was single camping fishing but take your essentials for the night before you arrive because the shops and pub are walkable 30 mins
It’s a fabulous place great for tents has fresh water piped to the field so you can fill up any time easy access to the lake itself which is spectacular’ you can buy logs off the farmer who is very helpful

Não gostou Access road is rough mostly, so leave the Ferrari at home,Its a farm

Nice quiet and spacious place to stay

Não gostou Only negative was the driveway up to the fields. Generally very worried I was going to get a puncture or scratch the car with stone chips.

Gostou The location and natural surroundings offer a peaceful atmosphere. The owner is very friendly. Everything was excellent. Thank you for letting us spend time together at the campsite.

Não gostou Just a suggestion for the future: the portable toilets should have better water for flushing.

Gostou Perfect location, beautiful site, friendly farmer, quiet and peaceful! (And the highlight for the teenager was full signal and 4G!). Lovely cafe nearby, 200m to the lake, surpassed our expectations in so many ways! Great to escape the rush and enjoy the simple things in life such as the sound of the river running in the night, sheep bleating to wake up to instead of an alarm clock.
