About the site
If you are looking for a back-to-basics site for your next Lake District adventure then look no further. This pop up campsite is situated in the north of the national park, within a ten minute drive of Keswick, Skiddaw and Helvellyn for days of hiking, along with Dertwentwater and Ullswater for water sports and boat trips! There are a total of 50 non electric grass pitches, each measuring 6m x 6m. Each pitch allows up to four guests, suitable for tents only, set on a gently sloping field with plenty of surrounding space for kids to play. The views of the surrounding countryside and mountains are also the perfect site to wake up to. There is also a camping barn onsite, sleeping two with shared facilities. The site neighbours a gentle stream too, perfect for soaking your feet after a long climb. Within a 20 minute walk you will find a coffee shop and country pubs, great for a delicious meal and tipple to end the day! Evenings can also be spent cooking up a delicious BBQ at your pitch, and there is even a local farm shop within a five minute drive for picking up the supplies. Dogs are welcome here too, with up to one permitted per pitch.

Lovely campsite! Love how we could pick our own pitch and not be told where we had to go. Was pleasantly surprised with the facilities and the location was perfect for us, the views were incredible. Sheep were loud but we got used to it, haha!
Beautiful peaceful location

Stayed two nights and it was perfect as a base. Did a couple of walks and visited Keswick and Grasmere.
