What customers say
Brilliant spot, loved the views & being close to Wast Water, Scafell Pike & coast. Hosts Nicky & Jason super friendly. Toilets/showers spotless. Bell tents comfy. A few flies/mud issues, but mostly a ripper time, keen to come back.

Great value for money and a lovely location
Unpowered grass tent site
Liked The wonderfully welcoming hosts, that the site was well located (pub a short stroll away, nice café and deli on the way to the lake), and that the showers, toilets and kitchen surpassed my expectations for the price. Also liked that I could have my car at my pitch as I was in a one man tent!

Unpowered grass tent site
Liked Me, my partner and dog had a lovely stay, the showers are large with warm water, clean and well stocked toilets, and a washing up shed, also very well stocked!
Was really close (about 10 minute drive) to Wastwater that is beautiful to swim in, or just relax next to, enjoyed a swim in the emerald pool close by too! And sunset on Seascale beach and the mountain that is walking distance from camp (about a 40 minute hike).
Really nice grounds with drinking water on site and a little stream to get access too for our dog.
Had so much help from the host with freezing our ice packs, and just general help with anything we needed, we will definitely be happy to stay again!
Disliked Nothing!

Highly recommend! Brilliant campsite
Bell tent (five person)
Liked Everything! Nikki is a fantastic host who made us feel very welcome and helped with anything we needed. We stayed in a 5 person bell tent, it was clean cosy spacious, it had a gas stove so we could make a brew on arrival, equipped with skillet pans so you can cook on the fire pit and had plates/cups/bowls/cutlery/tin opener and scissors and even marshmallows!!! Shared facilities were always clean and stocked with toilet roll/hand-wash. There is a lovely pub just down the road next to the river from the campsite. We visited St Bees beach while staying and that is worth a visit as well as the railway at Ravenglass. We also took a trip up to Wasdale Emerald pools and the views are breathtaking as well as having a dip to cool off. We took some beautiful pictures while up there. We will definitely be returning and I will recommend this campsite to family and friends! Thanks Nikki and family for a
Fantastic stay!! Heather, Damon and Georgia
