Motorhome - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

Good location with an amazing walk up to the waterfall. Although the site is next to a main road, the noise is not too bad and there is a bus stop right outside to all the local villages. Remember to reserve a table if you want to eat in the pub! No cellular signal whatsoever! Wi-Fi in the hotel/pub.

Good site, great position for hiking

Sprinter-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

Great site, amazing scenery all around you. The road is busy but quietens down later on. Plenty of hiking all around you without having to drive anywhere. Great pub serving excellent food right next door (no noise from pub). Only 2 showers and 3 toilets for ladies, but it seemed to work fine when we were there. Definitely will stay again.

Clean site and polite and helpful owner

VW-Type Campervan - Electric Hardstanding PitchesSep 2023

A nice clean campsite with facilities as advertised. Toilets and shower areas were clean and well maintained. We were greeted by the owner who was kind and helpful. The location only has the one pub next door within walking distance (which we didn't use). However, there are some lovely paths to go on walks nearby and access to the Thirlmere infinity pool (a gorgeous spot and well worth a visit). Our only downside about this location was that it is beside a busy main road. We always both wear earplugs but through this. It did wake us up numerous times in the night. However, the second night we stayed, we kept the pop top down (which helped) so got a better night's sleep.

Fantastic location and views

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

Fantastic location and views. Toilet and showers clean and in a quirky barn. Pub through gate next door serves fantastic food. Only downside is busy noisy road in front, used until late at night. There was a fast flowing noisy stream - remember to take earplugs and it's a fantastic site.

Great location

VW-Type Campervan - Non Electric Grass PitchesSep 2023

Lovely location for a short stay if you're wanting to explore & go on some beautiful walks. There is no hot water to wash your pots & very basic washrooms. Sadly, the hosts let this place down, we asked to park our small van in their car park for 2 hours or even on the side of the field, while we went for a walk but the man just straight up said "no" and didn't offer us any alternatives or recommendations, just what we felt was a very rude 'no'. Thankfully, the lovely man next door at the pub offered us parking all day and the service there is great compared!

Great site

Friendly welcome, stunning views and great walking directly from the site. Despite a slightly noisy road, we extended our stay by a further 2 to the 3 we had booked. The pub next door does great food, but a little expensive. A great site and I have already recommended to friends.
