Secluded location about 20 minutes from Ambleside and Lake Windermere. The campsite has good facilities with clean and well stocked toilet/shower facilities (the shower was surprisingly very good) and a nice shop. Anything more you need can be picked up in Ambleside 20 minutes away. When I stayed in June we had nice weather and there were a lot of... More

Totally out of the way of everything with 2 pubs within about 10mins walk, so perfect place for hikers, great walks and mountains to climb but watch out for the bogs :) The campsite was pretty average, shop on site with fresh baked goods in the mornings, toilet facilities not the cleanest and the camping pitches were not the best....

Stayed for two nights, weekend 1st and 2nd of June. The site is located amongst the Langdale Pikes which makes it an ideal setting both for waking up to the view of the vast hills, or walking them all. There are also a few good pubs around, its a drive from Windemere if you fancy that. Showers were excellent, facilities... More

Really good camping facilities here, clean toilets and showers, I've stayed here on numerous occasions and never had any issues with the showers. Staff are very friendly and knowledgeable, looking for for my next trip in September. Great place for walking and biking or relaxing with a pint of Old P in The Old Dungeon Ghyll.

Just spent the late May bank holiday at the Great Langdale campsite. The views and location are outstanding, particularly if your a walker, hiker, climber etc as everything can be accessed on foot. We had a pitch on the new field at the back of the site with great views of the hills. It seemd to be a family area... More

Amazing location ,great pub just round the corner and friendly staff on the site shop.But the showers were terrible I had to catch the trickle of water on two mornings so did not bother on the third such a shame because I would have definitely wanted to recommend this campsite if this was fixed

This is one of my favourite campsites. Mostly because of it's stunning location. Have stayed several times with small groups of friends and family. Showers are always warm and clean. Other campers are usually quiet and considerate. There is a separate area for young families. An ideal base for some great walks. Good pub just down the lane. Yes, it... More

The campsite is fantastically located with easy access to beautiful walks. The campsite itself was very boggy in areas. The on site shop was very well stocked the bread and croissants were freshly cooked, delicious and well priced. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The campsite was quiet after 11 each night and generally had a good vibe. The... More

Just stayed at Gt. Langdale over the bank holiday weekend. Great location for walks with fabulous scenery (if the low clouds ever disperse). However, the camp site is very boggy and muddy (think Glastonbury) with poor drainage. It was wet and overcast whilst the rest of the country was bathed in sunshine. This seems to be a theme with Langdale... More

I camped here with a friend for one night, difficult to pitch the tent due to lots of rocks below thin soil layer. There was torrential rain overnight which curtailed the fun to some extent - some areas of the campsite had not drained well...it was worth a few minutes checking the area before we pitched, and glad I had!...
