Solo stay
Roof Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2026 Simple but exactly what you need. Easy check in. I came for cycling and running. Really good location for both. Lovely hot shower when returning after bike ride and pub on site. Will come back.
All we needed was there
Roof Tent - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2026 This camp belongs to a very nice couple. They were very nice and helpful. Thank you so much. Hot shower was a treat after the long walk.
Nice site
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 It was a nice campsite, perfect for walking up Helvellyn. Plus, the pub next door is very nice and there is a bus stop on the doorstep as well. The facilities are fairly clean, although the shower needed a little more attention.
great place right next ro the kimns headinm
VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 exactly as described tolets and showers etc all clean nice and relaxed enjoyed our stay thank you
Lovely farm campsite
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Non Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 Fabulous views from all camping pitches.
Quite close to road but not bothered by road noise, certainly didn't keep us up at night. Well kept facilities, basic but spotless. Helpful & friendly owners.
Good value and will be back 😊
What we needed
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 A small, quiet, basic site with everything we needed.
The toilets and shower were ok. The shower heads are a bit low and the sinks a bit small with a shelf above making washing a little difficult. The water gets warm quickly though. The washrooms are not shiny but they are clean, tidy and functional.
There is no other lighting on the site (walkways etc) than at the washroom so a torch is essential - this suits us and I see as a positive. Good spot for tackling the Helvellyn ridge from this side.
Bus comes every half hour although this was significantly impacted by the traffic in Keswick and Ambleside on the Saturday afternoon which meant one was cancelled and the next one was late - nice setting to wait though!
Pub ideally placed next door and food was excellent (though a little pricier than we would usually pay). There is a shop advertised at the pub but we didn't see it open (this could be our timing so can't criticise).
Nice site
VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Pitches Aug 2026 Good location, on a bus route. Nice pub next door. Basic but clean toilets
Simple and quiet
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Non Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 No issues, clean facilities and a hot shower. Not much around apart from the pub next door, which is excellent, but the peace and quiet is worth it. Would visit again!
Great location for activities
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 A small and lovely site. Perfect for exploring the area. It’s on a fairly busy road so be aware. Great pub at the entrance.
Very near the road VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Aug 2026 The main issue with this site is that we found it to be very close to a busy road.
The site runs parallel to the road with only a screen of trees. This means that during the day (and especially at weekends) there is constant traffic noise. The hard standing areas are set up so that you face the road. Having said this, the view of the mountains in the other direction is beautiful.
I would have to say that I would only recommend this site if you were wanting a 1 night stopover spot, perhaps to visit the gorgeous infinity pool about 30 mins walk away.
The facilities were clean and suitable - the issue we had was with its siting next to the road.
Convenient place to stay in the Lakes
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2026 This is a great place to stay if you're looking for somewhere central in the Lakes. Toilets are well-maintained, and each plot has a functioning electric hookup and water tap. Everything you need! It's quite a small site and it's right by the road. It might not be suitable if you're looking for a longer stay and to spend plenty of time on the site, but for short stays and people looking only to use it as a base, it's perfect!
Wonderful location
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2026 Really friendly farm camping site - our first motorhome outing, and the owner was so helpful getting us all set up.
Perfect location for buses to Keswick and Grasmere and a wonderful pub next door for a great meal!
Basic but ok
VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Pitches Jul 2026 Basic facilities, but clean and showers hot. Noisy road next to site but only bother you if early to sleep or late to rise.
Good place for walkers to Helvellyn or Sticks Pass and plunge pools. Buses regular and pub meals looked ok. Beer pricey though.
3 nights on site probably about max. Good for tourers.
Lovely stay
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2026 Had a brilliant weekend. Great views. Good walks. Peace and quiet.
Great location
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2026 Fairly basic site but great location
Great location!
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jul 2026 What a great location! Mid-way between Keswick and Grasmere, on a bus route that runs on to Ambleside and Windermere.
Regular bus service too. Next door to a very decent pub, serving excellent food. The facilities are basic but spotlessly clean. Yes, there's considerable traffic noise from the adjacent busy road but it quietens at night. A good hike too from the site itself.
Good bus service Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jun 2026 This site has some great views, a good bus service close to site.
Toilets and showers could be improved. The hard standing was way out of level for a 7 metre motorhome. Service area basic.
Lovely little spot
Roof Tent - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jun 2026 Great little spot to go straight to Helvellyn or I would definitely recommend fishergill place!! There is a bus stop straight outside that'll take you straight to Keswick or Grasmere. Facilities are quaint and all the basics are there for your Lakes getaway. Would definitely recommend.
Is next to a busy road so would be mindful of this if you're a light sleeper.
Nice location
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches Jun 2026 Lovely location and the pub next door is great. Clean, basic facilities nothing missing for a campervan, level plots. Separate m/f blocks with 2 showers in each. No phone signal at all and no Wi-Fi, so take a good book!
The plots were a bit too close together for us, next van was a couple of metres from our porch.
Brilliant stay
Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2026 Beautiful spot! Perfect location for hiking and only a short drive or bus journey into Grasmere. Owner was really lovely, easy check-in and very friendly. Will definitely be coming back.
Good facilities
Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2026 We were there at half term so facilities were heavily used
Right on door step of fells
Next to the pub VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2026 Back to basics campsite. More or less right alongside the roadside. Toilets and shower facilities very dated and very basic. There is a pub next door and also a bus route into the local towns.
Probably good for 1 or 2 night stays as a base for exploring.
Great site!
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2026 Whilst this site is pretty much on the road and can be a little noisy at times, it didn't bother us at all.
The staff are friendly and very helpful, and the facilities are old but clean. It's also very central to all of the great places we wanted to visit and the pub on its doorstep does really good food. The only thing it was lacking were disabled facilities. I have a stoma and would have greatly benefited from an accessible toilet.
That said, I did manage and we had an amazing time.
Excellent stay
VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding Pitches May 2026 Friendly and helpful hosts.
Great spot for walking - and next to pub for food. Close to road but not an issue as we were out walking all day. Bathrooms basic in best way - everything worked and very clean - all you need!
Thirlspot
VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass Pitches May 2026 Brilliant site, basic but clean. Excellent location and stunning views -we’ll be back!
