Hobby Wood primitive grass tent campsite (no private bathroom amenities)
Liked: My friend and I stayed for a weekend with our girls and what a fabulous time we had. The campsite is beautiful, the girls enjoyed the river running through and paddling in there, the hammocks, the sheep and the cows. Shirley was incredibly helpful bringing our things down to the tent and then back up again. The toilets and showers were very clean and equipped with everything you need. The location was great for getting to Windermere. Thank you for a lovely stay.

Liked: Such a beautiful site, peaceful, well kept and very inviting. We stayed as a group this year after vising previously and falling in love with the site. Far enough away from anything to encourage outdoors and socialising but close enough to shops etc if you need anything. The owners of this site are extremely accommodating and will check to make sure your happy
Disliked: Nothing at all

Hobby Wood primitive grass tent campsite (no private bathroom amenities)
Liked: Peaceful well kept site with excellent facilities. The owners were really helpful in getting us to and from the pitch. Campsites without cars are the way forward it's so much more peaceful. Loved the scenery, the river, hammocks and location to go explore. Would definitely stay again!

Liked: Fabulous little campsite. No frills but just the most gorgeous location by the river. Kids loved the hammocks. We had a pitch with a private compost toilet & shower which whilst basic was very clean and perfectly adequate, and plenty of hot water in the shower. Owners super helpful in transporting our stuff from the car to the pitch (not far but a very steep hill) and explaining the lovely walk to the pub. Loads to do and see in the area but also a lovely place to just chill. Will definitely be back.
Disliked: Really nothing! Don't come if you want facilities with bells & whistles but if you're happy with basic camping it's perfect.
