When we left the campsite, we were amazed how close it was to the M6, only 15 minutes drive, and yet it felt a world away. Very peaceful, really only the sounds of birds, sheep, cows and children! Amazing views over the peaks and hills around Windermere. The facilities included everything you could need; toilets, showers, and washing up stations were all really clean and well maintained, there was a communal fridge, washing machine and electric charging points in the bathrooms, welcoming reception and shop that was well stocked with food and toiletries, as well as wood for the fire pits. Sites were well marked out and being a small site there wasn't much traffic so children could run around safely. We were lucky to have beautiful weather, but I imagine in wet weather, it would still work well as there were shared covered areas with benches, and gravel pathways and drives to avoid mud. An 8pm curfew meant you were not disturbed by late arrivals or headlamps after dark, but the friendly staff were a little flexible on the timing. A great pub, The Derby Arms was less than 10 minutes drive and you could walk to it along the roads or through the fields, good food. Staff at Moscow were very welcoming and friendly and gave us a great introduction on arrival. I felt they had thought everything through to make the site work really efficiently.
Great!

Stayed for two nights in Rabbit's Burrow glamping pod, it was great! Lovely sheltered outdoor cooking area and hot tub. First time glamping for us and it was an amazing experience with beautiful views. Toilet and shower facilities were spotlessly clean. Hosts were very friendly and chatty, nothing was too much trouble for them. Great value for money, would definitely recommend booking.
