Liked: its a great spot. cosy-intimate campsite.
Disliked: No hot water, mirror in toilet block is so low to the ground that you have to kneel on the floor or do the splits. Promised Saturday Pizzas not always available (dependant on staff availability).

From the manager: Hi Simon, We're glad you enjoyed our campsite location. Unfortunately I did have to cancel pizzas this Saturday night, as my back went on Thursday night to the point I was laid on the floor for 24 hours until it eased and I could get to my chiropractor. This is, I hope, not a regular thing, and I can only apogise I was unable to do pizzas, and it is not possible with one member of staff, you need 2. I can assure you I'd have rather have been making pizzas than in agony on the floor! Thank you for your understanding on this.

Liked: The campsite was really close to the start of the route we took to reach scafell pike. The Yewtree pub was really good and close to the accommodation. The showers were nice and hot !
Disliked: As the campsite is next to a river we weren’t prepared for the midges, but that’s fault of our own for not being prepared enough.

Liked: Campsite located in the most beautiful spot with so many wonderful walking routes close by. Small site and pitches well laid out with plenty of space. A truly ‘off grid’ holiday without any phone signal or wifi. Basic facilities on site but very clean and well maintained daily. Daniel was very friendly and keen to offer any help if required. Will definitely book to stay again!
Disliked: I wasn’t able to stay longer!!

Liked: Peaceful campsite set in the most idyllic spot between Seatoller and Seathwaite. Spotless toilets and washing up area on site, with great hot showers a short walk up to the farm house in Seatoller. Loads of great hikes straight from the campsite. Loved my few nights there with my pooches and will absolutely be back.

Liked: We arrived late due to airport delays on the way, and were worried we wouldn’t be able to pitch up if it was shut before dark but got there and found the pitch and got the tent box up no dramas, there’s nice toilets as you arrive and inside all the information you need on clear signs for where to find things, camp rules, local amenities. It’s right down the road from the honister pass which was why we chose it, it made getting to our activities on time a breeze! We stayed the one night and it was easy peasy and a lovely stay for us and the dog!
