Ings Kippers Campsite and Shepherd's Hut

Gostou Hosts were lovely and greeted us on check in and ran us through the layout and facilities.
The campsite is lovely , amazing views, good size pitches , nice that there is a fire pit in each pitch.
Toilets, bins, sinks and drink water stations labelled clearly .
Really couldn’t fault the site .
Easy enough to find and good for those who don’t drive ! There is a bus stop less than 5minutes away .
Really enjoyed our short stay, looking to book again next year

Gostou really lovely campsite. We received a warm welcome and a had a little tour around the facilities there. The shower and toilets were always spotless. The tent pitches are private and it is in a very good location - a lovely pub a 5 minute walk away and a shop over the road. Would definitely recommend this campsite.

Gostou Small site, super friendly and helpful owner. Great location from which to get all over the Lakes with a car. Charging available and a drying room. Would return. Pub and shop across the road.

Não gostou Nothing to dislike, but facilities are basic (although very clean and functional).

Gostou Malcolm and Ann-Marie were lovely. They went out of their way to greet us and make sure the site was to our liking. Our stay in the Shepherd's Hut was lovely, it had all necessary amenities and was very comfortable. The campsite was again great, with clear, nearby toilet and drinking water facilities and a private element to each pitch. There was a lovely ginger kitty who greeted us in the morning! Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay around the Windermere area with a vehicle :)

Do gerente: Thanks for the glowing review and we're pleased you very much enjoyed your stay so I'll trying to count that as a 10.

Sadly anything less than an overall score of 10 degrades our long term site score of 9.6 which we've successfully maintained for a number of years and won multiple Pitchup awards for. I wonder if it's a Pitchup error.

Gostou Fantastic campsite, lovely views, food and garage nearby, great facilities and red hot shower, friendly and helpful owners. Had a great time, thank you so much

Gostou Really lovely small campsite, pitches cut fairly privately into the hillside. 20p for a hot shower amazing value, very clean facilities. Staff very helpful and friendly. Provided text update on road closure at Patterdale, very helpful! Clean and tidy.

Gostou Amazing little campsite just outside of Windemere! Bus stop is a 5 minute walk away meaning that getting into town is a breeze. Campsite has great facilities and the owners are so friendly! Great views from the campsite, and you can be out in the wild within 5 minutes as footpaths and trails are close by. Would 100% recommend.

Gostou We had a great stay at this campsite over the bank holiday weekend.
The owners welcomed us and explained all the facilities and directions. Very nice people. Each tent pitch has their own firepit and you can buy wood and fire staters from the owner.
Amazing views from the pitches, surrounded by Christmas trees.
We really enjoyed the outdoor shower and the phone charging facilities.
Pub and shop just across the road.
Also bus stops just outside the camp site which is perfect to get to all the local villages. The stops have all the times and bus numbers on. I recommend getting the 555. They are stagecoach and £3 single trip where ever you go or £12 for a day ticket.

Não gostou Unfortunately had to cut our trip short due to a family issue but also the fact that we lost a lot of sleep the night before.
At 3am we was woke up to someone pitching us which mean a lot of scuffing of tents and air beds. Even when they had finished putting up their tents they then started snoring excessively loud to the point myself and another person was shouting trying to get them to shut up. It was very frustrating having already been woken up by them.
We was also disappointed with the cleaning facilities- there wasn’t any (unless we just couldn’t find them) I was having to clean our pots from the open taps near the tent with no hot water. Wasn’t ideal.
The Hill to the pitches were also a nightmare, not ideal for the elderly or disabled. Be prepared for the hill and carting your belongs up on trolleys.

Do gerente: Thank you for your review, albeit disappointing.

The pair next to you arrived that night at 12.30 not 3.30. I know this because I escorted them to their pitch and asked them to set up quietly . I'm not responsible for their snoring.

The washing up station is at the top of the hill as shown on the massive poster with map in the car park. You actually took a picture from the top of the hill so you must have seen it, everyone else does. Plus we tell everyone where all the taps, washing up, toilets etc are when you arrive.

As for the hill, it's all on the description of you care to read it. I'm 59 and I can get up there very easily. I think if you were elderly or disabled you wouldn't book a 'Small Hillside' pitch - or at least you'd be careful to inspect the details and reviews.
