What customers say
This peaceful, well-maintained campsite is praised for its stunning location by Wimbleball Lake, offering easy access to walking routes. Visitors highlight the friendly and exceptionally helpful hosts, Brian and Caroline, who go the extra mile. Facilities are consistently described as clean, with excellent hot showers and useful amenities like fridges and freezers. The small, quiet site is ideal for families and those seeking a relaxing escape, though some note the lack of mobile signal and nearby shops.

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Very remote and quiet campsite. Ideally located if you like walking or watersports.
Brian is super welcoming and makes you feel comfortable straight away (he’s very good with kids too!). He’ll give you plenty of tips about what to do in the area.
The facilities are very well kept and include 3 toilets, 2 showers, and 2 dishwashing sinks... all of these for only 6 pitches! There’s also a freezer, fridge, and kettle for extra comfort.
Pitch sizes ensure privacy. Very close walking distance to the lake (2 min), dam (10 min), and activity centre (10 min).

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked We had a great time at Wimbleball holidays this weekend. It's right next to the most beautiful lake where we spent the day paddle boarding (you need to buy a self launch pass from SW lakes which was £20 for 2 people for the day but definitely worth it). The facilities on site were ideal (shower, toilets, fridge, freezer, washing up facilities) which were all nearby no matter where you pitch your tent. It's only a small site but still private and peaceful, with lots of beautiful plants and animals (we saw a baby rabbit one day!) And the owners are friendly and really helpful. 100% will return!

Excellent site with fab location, friendly host and ideal for families
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked Everything from the amazing location to the friendliness of our host Brian. He made us feel very welcome from the first minute, provided lots of fun with bubbles and quad bike rides for my 7 yo son! The location by the lake is ideal and the facilities were clean. Hot and powerful showers and the use of the fridge were definite bonus! An address to remember for sure!

Liked The host was very helpful and friendly. The camping field and facilities where all well kept, and very peaceful. The sky on a cloud free night is amazing. Easy access to the path around the lake, dam, and other delightful exmoor walks.

Liked Beautiful place, it was raining when we stayed but it was lovely still. The bathrooms, and kitchens were very tidy. We enjoyed our stay, and hoping to get back next year so my brother can go fishing. 😊
Disliked No dislike!

So nice! I didn’t want to leave so stayed an extra 3 nights!
Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked So glad the weather in the Lake District wasn’t great last week! We choose instead to head south from Manchester to find the sun and we certainly did with this little gem of a site! Brian and Caroline could not be any more helpful! Toilets are clean, showers are hot. The washing up facilities are more than adequate. There is a chest freezer and a couple of fridges to keep stocks frozen/cold. Stunning lake just a short walk away and easily accessible. Sounds of only birds and farm animals ….. just so peaceful.
Brian will supply a huge bag of logs / kindling and firelighters for just £8. We bought our own firepit but you can hire them from Brian at £2 a day or £10 a week. Initially we just booked for 6 nights but I loved it so much, I decided to stay for another 3!
Very dog friendly. Our dog is getting on a bit now so we can trust him just to hang around outside our tent should we have to nip up to the toilet block. Brian and Caroline had no issue with this which was great for us, not having to tie our dog up each time we needed to wander up. The toilet blocks etc are only a very short distance away.
It’s not a huge field which is what we liked. But it is very well maintained and flat on the pitch spots. Pitch sizes are very, very generous., massive infact! We had more than enough space to spread out and felt like we were far enough away from any ‘neighbours’ so our dog would not wander over to scrounge for food!!
At £20 a night …… wow! Compared to other sites we have stayed at this place is a bargain! Brian and Caroline will not allow to over crowd, they are clearly more interested in guests having the personal space they need and to feel comfortable there.
We couldn’t fault the place.
We will be back!
Disliked Absolutely nothing at all (and trust me, if I had something to moan about, I would ;))

Non-electric grass tent or trailer tent pitch
Liked The directions to the site were spot on and we received a warm welcome the moment we drove onto the site.
The owners were very friendly and welcoming. I was staying with my 2 young children and they both loved every moment. The freedom to run and play as well as added independence as the site was small enough for them to roam within sight.
The facilities were great and the site was within easy walking distance of the lake. It was a great walk and accessible for a pram. We enjoyed walking to the dam and then to the park and cafe.
We had such a lovely time and are planning to return next year.
