Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2024

Despite gale force winds for two nights, we loved it here and tried to book an extra night but they were fully booked. Such a beautiful setting surrounded by mountains. Very useful camp shop, easy access walks and pub onsite. Warm toilets, showers, washing machines, dryers and the best washing up room I've ever seen. Low areas can flood (were were warned about this by friendly lady on reception) so choose your spot carefully depending on the weather forecast.

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2024

Lovely stay at this campsite. Facilities were clean, close and well maintained. Little shop with various bits and plenty of space for parking on the campsite. Very easy to find and close to Glenridding. Friendly and helpful staff.

Great location, easy access to all parts of the Lake District. Probably could have done with a couple more water taps around the site.

Great views and well equipped

Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent PitchesJun 2024

Pros - Fantastic views of the surrounding hills - Comes with a lot of facilities including showers, laundry room, washing up facilities - Even comes with a pub Cons - Could do with a kettle, but that's a minor point and I'd imagine some campers would be happier boiling their own!

Lovely site

Great campsite with clean bathrooms, a store with supplies and an Inn. Very close to multiple trailheads and with 5-10 min drive to the start of Helvellyn. Highly recommended!
