Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Oct 2023 Lovely park in a great location. However, let down badly by irresponsible dog owners and fellow campers that don't adhere to the 10:30pm quiet time. I was still awake at 12:15pm with the noise from the tents opposite. They had dogs that were allowed to bark both through the night and early in the morning.
It is a great site, it's just such a shame that this was my experience. All campers seemed to be in one place, despite the park having several camping locations. The noisy neighbours arrived at 10pm on their first night, pitching the tent in the dark with headlamps. Surely they would have been better placed in a site where there wasn't so many other campers that they could disturb?
Idyllic campsite
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Oct 2023 A lovely, peaceful campsite, built into a valley, and adjacent to Rydal Hall.
As it was mid-October I was camping there mostly on my own until the weekend, so it was extra quiet. Shower facilities were of a high standard and very clean.
Walking distance to Ambleside (about 30 mins), close to Rydal Water and Grasmere, and lots of good walking locally.
The site staff were super helpful
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Oct 2023 The site staff were super helpful, I use a TentBox and did not realise the pitches were no cars, but they accommodated me in a secluded car park where I could set up.
Perfect!
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Sep 2023 Beautiful campsite with great facilities. The location is perfect and the little bar is fab.
Will definitely stay again.
Amazing site!
Small Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Sep 2023 The staff and hospitality at Rydal Hall are absolutely amazing!
I was due to be camping during the storm, and they were kind enough to put us up in one of the lodges instead to stay dry and get a proper night's sleep.
Although the grounds are large and there's a few lots of accommodation, it still felt very peaceful and secluded, as you're surrounded by the woodlands and incredible waterfalls and gardens. There are plenty of amenities on site with all the extra bits you might need for camping, and only a short drive into the neighbouring villages.
I found this a great spot to base myself for exploring different parts of the lakes, as well as feeling very safe travelling on my own. I would definitely recommend and stay again!

Fabulous campsite
Medium Tent - Non Electric Grass Tent Pitches Aug 2023 Fabulous stay at Rydal Hall Campsite. Different areas separated but tress/woodland with good sized pitches. Quiet and peaceful. Cafe, small bar and restaurant on site. Small but but very clean shower and washing facilities. Staff throughout the site were very cheerful and helpful. Fabulous location, near to Ambleside and Grasmere with a great range of walks to choose from. Would definitely stay here again.
