Clear filters Superb stay. Thank you.
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Thank you for a great stay. Booking was straight forward and I really enjoyed your campsite. It was clean and very well organised. Thank you.
Great stay!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Location, facilities, staff and cost all fantastic. We have already recommended, and will be back!
Great campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Great campsite, highly recommend.
Fantastic stay, will return!
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Me and my partner had a fantastic stay here.
Staff very helpful and accommodating when we had to arrive later than expected. In the most perfect location, was extremely hot when we stayed and had a swim in brothers water a 10 min walk from site.
Would have loved to do some hiking around the area but was far too warm when we stayed. Lots of fab spots within 30 min driving distance, we did a canyoning activity with Lakeland ascents which was great. Food from the inn was lovely and was able to book at the reception/camping shop (which has everything you could possibly need).
The only thing I would recommend is bringing ear plugs if a light sleeper due to the noisy crows that live there, lol.
I will come again!
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Lovely level camping areas, but could do with more parking facilities for our cars.
Facilities excellent, especially the breakfast baps!! I will come again!
Excellent
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Excellent very helpful staff. Would definitely stay here again.
Fab site, great location, sadly terrible weather!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jul 2025 Sykeside Camping Park, was perfect for what we needed and wanted. It has a well stocked shop, friendly and helpful staff. A good sized ablution block, kept very clean.
Brotherswater Inn onsite was great, good food and drink, and a welcome respite from the awful weather. The pitches were mostly level with hardstanding dotted around to help protect the ground. We were also given the heads up of a group of DoE, so gave us an opportunity to pitch away from them.
Sadly for us, the weather was atrocious. Our 2nd day, it was 40mph+ winds with heavy rain. Safe to say, our tent struggled, and eventually leaked. The ground around us was saturated with water, it was beginning to flood. As a result, we cut our trip short and left a day early.
Other than the weather, which is always unpredictable, would highly recommend this campsite and will definitely be returning - with a new and improved tent!
Great campsite
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 The staff is welcome and there's great food at the local pub.
The facilities are clean.
Family stay
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Fantastic location with friendly and helpful staff.
Plenty of space to choose where to pitch tent. And the on site shop was great.
Thunderously good
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Great stay, lovely campsite with a really belting view every way you look. Lovely flat pitches and space to park near your tent which always makes life easier.
Good range of facilities, hot showers, laundry facilities etc. Felt like it was a monitored site too, and it wasn't noisy or rowdy. We didn't get to visit the pub sadly as was fully booked a week in advance when I enquired, so factor that in.
We stayed during a huge thunderstorm, was quite epic hearing it bounce off the mountains surrounding us, very memorable experience!
Good campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Staff were really helpful and easy to approach.
There was a storm whilst we stayed and they had staff come out to make sure everyone was okay.
Nice site!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Good site.
There was a big storm during our stay and a lot of the campsite flooded out. Not the site's fault in any way but worth noting that water does stand on several parts of the campsite. It did drain fairly quickly and the site attendant was excellent checking on everyone.
Amazing site
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 What an amazing place!
Stayed for four nights and cannot fault it. Perfect location, great staff and facilities. Ideal if you really want to get away from it all.
Will definitely return in the near future.
Beautiful spot
Large Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Absolutely beautiful campsite - perfect setting. Staff were all very helpful and friendly.
Planning on returning and would recommend.
Fantastic campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Fantastic campsite. Staff were very friendly and helpful from the moment we arrived. It was excellently located to head off onto the fells to bag some Wainwright's.
Facilities were always clean and available. Plenty of hot water for showers etc.
We will 100% be booking again.
Beautiful location
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Jun 2025 Absolutely stunning location. One of the best.
Great
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 Great place for a base to explore the fells from. Decent pub on the site. We stopped when the heavens decided to open this week, but would return with hopefully better weather next time.
Will book again
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 Beautiful location. Friendly staff.
Lots of bins to get rid of rubbish. Good value for money.
Book early if you want to eat in the pub as it was booked out all weekend.
Limited choice for breakfasts and coffee is over priced.
Really nice campsite
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 Really nice campsite, really nice guy who owns it.
Everything's very very clean, great shop on site.
Really enjoyed the weekend and lovely views from the site. We will be back.
Great location for a lot of walks and places in the lakes. Thank you.
Great location
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 My partner and I spent the last two nights at Skyeside Camping Park, and we can honestly say, it's one of the best we've stayed at yet.
Location was fantastic with easy access to the Fells. Toilets and showers were very clean, great shop for the essentials and a nice pub, what else could you ask for. Only bad point I can think of, the pub get booked up well in advance for food, so make sure you book a few weeks before your stay.
Other than that, I'd say 5 stars for Skyeside.
Loved it, will be back
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 We had a blast, we phoned and booked a day early to arrive and luckily they had space, wasn't too crowded for it being a bank holiday and didn't have any issues.
The restaurant food was fast and good so perfect there. Will 100% be back, thank you.
Very, very good
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches May 2025 Really lovely place will definitely be coming back. Right in the valley so stunning views, with frequent fighter jets flying past, very cool.
Showers are very hot with no option to cool it down but otherwise, all the amenities are great.
One night camp
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Apr 2025 We booked two pitches for our tents fairly last minute and were happy there was availability.
The campsite was very good, it's in a lovely setting with plenty of room to pitch. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
The toilets and showers were plentiful and very clean.
We didn't get chance to use all the facilities available due to the fact we had just completed a 10km hike with 1,000m of elevation so we just crashed out in our tents exhausted!
Would definitely recommend and return again.
Hiking camp
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Apr 2025 Good site, we felt it was a little bit weird that one of the owners (we think) starts patrolling the campsite at night - we felt a little bit like it was a school trip with him doing that.
Decent distance to multiple hikes throughout the district.
Excellent campsite
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Apr 2025 I pitched my small tent in a really great spot overlooking the main campsite. Wonderful views of the fells and crags. Perfect location.
