Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Touring PitchesOct 2025

Very lovely stay. Big plots and nice to have own water tap. The toilets and showers were spotless and the reception and shop was a bonus, would recommend.

A nice site

A nice site, but a bit far from the lakes. Very very busy area with little parking, but still enjoyed it.

Site's response

Thanks for your review Julie. Park Cliffe is in the Lake District National Park set in the fells above lake Windermere, with great views, and just a few miles by road from the village of Bowness-on-Windermere. We allocate parking spaces to each pitch or accommodation unit on our site, and we have a visitors car park too, so you shouldn't have struggled for parking with us. You might mean the Lake District area overall, which can be busy at this time of year, but our team are always happy to suggest quieter, less well known spots too.

We loved our stay!

Motorhome - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Motorhome PitchesOct 2025

We had a fantastic stay at Park Cliffe Camping and Caravan Site! The arrival instructions in the confirmation email were really helpful, especially as the entrance can be a little tricky for larger vehicles. We were greeted warmly on arrival and shown straight to our pitch, which was a lovely touch. The facilities were excellent - the toilets and showers were spotless and cleaned periodically, and the bar staff were very friendly. There was a good breakfast selection and some lovely family-friendly entertainment in the evenings, which added to the relaxed, community feel of the place. The location is perfect for hikers, with plenty of scenic routes nearby. Just a tip - if you head down to the lake side (fell foot park or down to Bowness), it's best to get the bus or a taxi back as the road is quite narrow with little space for pedestrians. Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Park Cliffe to anyone visiting the area. We'll definitely be returning!

An ideal location, a 5 minute drive to Bowness but also a peaceful and stunning site, with wonderful views. A nice little bar with a shop for bits and pieces, clean toilet and shower block, will definitely be back.

Small Tent - Non Electric Fellside Grass PitchesSep 2025

It was my first independent camping trip, and this was the perfect location. Classic camping facilities that were constantly cleaned and well maintained. Beautiful views all day and into the evening. Onsite pub, shop and food stalls. There was WIFI that stretched to the tent and worked well. The perfect spot, and we wished we'd stayed longer.

Single Axle Caravan - Fully Serviced Hardstanding Touring PitchesSep 2025

We were just passing through, so only had the chance to spend a couple of nights here. The site, showers and toilets were lovely and clean with nice warm showers. When we arrived, in torrential rain, the electric wasn't working on our pitch, but the lady on reception came straight out to sort it for us and there no further issues. The staff were all very kind, polite and friendly. We found time to climb the hill behind the site, which was fun and gave us a magnificent view over Lake Windermere and the hills around. Such a shame it was a 9hr journey from home or I can see we would definitely use this site again. 10/10.

Thanks so much for taking the time to review us and I'm glad you enjoyed your stay. Despite the long journey, I hope you will visit us again one day.

Beautiful, picturesque site, great walks and facilities were top quality. Food catered for on site and a welcoming, friendly pub. Staff were exceptional to. I think this site would benefit from a doggy wash station, it was all that was missing for me.

Thanks so much for your review and I'm delighted you enjoyed your stay with us. We'll discuss the potential for a dog wash station in the future. We hope to see you again.

Camping Pod - Couples Camping Pods (Dog Friendly)Sep 2025

I booked a 2 person shepherds pod to myself while I was over running the Lap race around Windermere. Loved my little home. Not sure I would have had the energy to take a tent down if I'd camped. But like the instructions said, bring everything as if you were camping - helpful. Really close to drinking water tap, good parking, friendly and helpful welcome, and the showers were grand even at 11pm. Great facilities that I could see but I didn't have much spare time to enjoy them. Thanks.

Site's response

Thank you Andrew, it's great to hear you had a comfortable stay with us. Well done for completing the Lap and glad we could support you!

Medium Tent - Non Electric Fellside Grass PitchesJul 2025

We really enjoyed our stay, the on-site cafe was a bonus, we got some delicious wraps from the on-site van and ate them next to the delightful stream. The various kids were have a fantastic time playing in it, creating a lovely relaxed family friendly atmosphere! The facilities were super clean and plentiful. We enjoyed a beautiful swim in Lake Windermere, just a short distance from the campsite. The staff were super helpful - even lending me a screwdriver, which I unexpectedly needed.
