Great location. Lovely site. Small shop. Very warm showers.
Has a decent cleaning and drying area (clothes) and inside washing up facilities.
Ideal for hiking and plan to be back in the better weather to take on another route.

Alright area

My tent had a hole in which I didn't realise(my fault), I then thought it'd be fine to sleep in my car for the night given if had a long day travel and I could use the rest of my equipment outside the car-cooker etc. I was then woken up and told I couldn't sleep in my car and I had to leave, told they didn't have a permit for people sleeping in cars but as I was leaving I got stopped and offered a space in which I could sleep in my car. They just said they didn't have a permit then proceeded to offer me for extra money a spot in which all of a sudden they have a permit? No sense to me at all and won't be going back even with a new tent, didn't seem too friendly in the end of things, shame really cos was looking forward to it but turned out to be a complete waste of time, part my fault but to say they don't have a permit and then offer me a price in which they've all of a sudden got a permit. Ridiculous.

Good sized open space with free choice of pitch. Flat ground. Amazing panoramic views around the site. Very clean toilets and shower facilities. Good on-site shop.

No access to the site via car past 23:00. Car park space near the pitches was somewhat limited.

Facilities great and very clean
Peaceful
Pub food outstanding

A great place me and my twin brother found to pitch up and hike. Great atmosphere, safe place, clean toilets and showers. Good pub (better described as an inn) with good food. Absolutely professional, informative and hospitable staff, can not fault them at all, great service all round. The little shop is handy as with the washrooms etc. close by to either Windermere or ullswater and many hiking routes with different variety of difficulties from beginner to more intermediate to more pro-longed hikes. Scenery is beautiful.

A couple pointers regarding the inn, they don’t do walks in, you have to book in advance for a table to be able to eat there. It’s clear the ‘small’ inn can not accommodate the full size of the camp grounds for food, so first booked first served I guess. But also with the barn pub closed half the year due to the seasons and low staff and cost to run it as one staff member pointed out, you’d think you’d be able to drink in the inn but as you are allowed to visit for a drink, if they are busy with reservations, you will have to sit outside unless there is empty tables inside. I gathered they don’t like people drinking at the bar. It is a small inn/pub to bear in mind and is understandable.

Felt very safe as a solo female traveller, clean facilities and a well stocked shop

This was my 1st time at Sykeside and I can't wait to go back. The site staff were incredibly friendly and made sure I had everything I needed. The facilities are great, showers and toilets clean and warm. I had a wonderful couple of days
