Gostou Campsite was in a remote location with tons of great views, especially on top of the hill where there is a swing set and a barn with some board games/table tennis. The campsite has large pitches, very spaced out giving lots of room, they come with a fire pit and a picnic bench (logs can be bought for £10 for a large tub, the tub lasted us three nights). There is also a little shop in the barn selling some food items with an honesty jar such as steaks, fresh milkshakes and bacon, they obviously have experience with camping as it even had marshmallows and skewers. The site has a fishing pond (bring your own rods), and a river running alongside the campsite which you can walk through, which is refreshing, for younger children there is an opportunity for playing. The campsite is well maintained and clean and the owners obviously have passion for their site giving great experience. The owners also came and spoke to us on our departure ensuring our stay was good and is extremely friendly. Location is about an hours drive to popular Lake District towns such as Buttermere and Windermere, and the drive isn’t difficult.

Não gostou The toilets on the campsite are a hole in the ground and you put saw dust on top after use, this in itself isn’t a negative in my opinion as they are kept clean and don’t really have a poor smell, however the walk up the hill to the actual toilets/showers is a little intense. You can walk around the pond to get up the hill however this is a path made by campers walking it and could do with being made properly by the campsite. Honestly this is the only thing on this campsite I deem as a negative and this is me being extremely picky, this is a very good campsite and do not let this put you off.
An opportunity for drastic improvement would be if the owners could build a park area for children to play on (there is swings but more could be better), again, this is me being picky and giving an opportunity for improvements for the campsite.
I even would consider the negatives as opportunities instead of calling them negatives.

Gostou Absolutely love it, the space, the owners, the maintenance. All truly fantastic 🤩 we were greeted by the lovely Fiona who showed us our way around. Fresh farm meat within the barn at the top which you pay for in the honesty box provided. Fire wood also available to purchase at the bottom close to tents.

Compost toilets close to pitches, otherwise flushable and clean power shower in the barn at the top, due to mobility issues I would drive up and park my car at the top which was not a problem :)

The kids loved the freedom and the space that they got and spent both afternoons in the running river which our tents looked out onto!

100% would recommend this place to others looking to book. Cannot go wrong!

Bonus was the electric hook up pitches 🙏❤️

Gostou Het uitzicht, de gastvriendelijkheid, de rust. Door slechte weersomstandigheden is onze tent omvergeblazen. De eigenaar heeft er 1lles aan gedaan om ons zo snel mogelijk te contacteren en heeft ons actief geholpen. Ook de volgende dagen kwam zeregelmatig checken of alles oke was met ons en de kids.

Não gostou Absoluut niets op aan te merken. Alles was perfect.

Gostou What a beautiful camp site. The sounds of the stream and a wonderful ramble up and down it just be careful of the slippery rocks.
The main showers were clean and powerful. Has access to a kitchen and washing machine as well as a small stocked fridge and freezer where you can buy some supplies. Will definitely be coming back.

Gostou LOVED this campsite!
Peaceful, pretty site, lovely river near lots of pitches, the BEST facilities I've seen for a long time. A whole cow shed turned over to facilities of great showers (clean, great pressure, no time limit), washing machine and drier available, fridge and freezer, kettle, honesty shop for supplies and free tea coffee, and Table tennis! (Winner in my book!).
Really friendly family run this place and Fiona took the time to come and see we were OK each evening.
It was clear that this family have spent a lot of time, effort and money on setting up this campsite and it has paid off, as its just great without being too fussy👍.

The location is quiet, with empty lanes for cycling and footpaths to walk.

Não gostou Nothing to dislike
