The campsite is in an ideal location if you want peace and tranquility-we stayed next to the flowing river....site lovely and clean, owner leaves you alone to get on with your camping .....showers are 50p (10 mins) not £1 as some people say on here........there is a pub two minute walk (sells real ale) dont know what the food is like (beer garden) over looks the campsite, know shops if you run out of food for camping (take your own supplies), pleasant walks either by foot or by car. If your thinking of driving the quick way to Windermere/Ambleside while the views are amazing if your not a confident driver go the long way round as roads are VERY steep. We will definately be staying here again

I really don't do tents!! I want a bed and a shower. Ok so I gave it a go, but for one night only. We arrived at the campsite and met up with friends at about 4pm it was raining. We pitched the tent next to the river that flows along the side of the campsite. We then set off to the pub, that is directly oppisite, The Bridge End. It was full because yes it was still raining. we got a table for 5 and the dog very easily and our food arrived quickly.
Back at the campsite there was a very clean shower and toilet block, I was impressed. also a washing machine and dryer, I'm sure if we had been staying longer I would have needed to use them as the rain didn't stop. Next day (no rain) we went of to Wastwater, which is only 3 miles up the road. Spectacular!! a must if your staying here.
So will I do it again? YES but with a bigger and dryer tent not the £20 special my boyfriend bought!!

Very welcoming campsite at a great price. Lovely spot right next to the river. Lovely pub about 30 seconds walk away serving delicious food and they also offer breakfast. Owner and his dog George were a nice surprise - infact we couldn't get rid of George after we made the mistake of throwing his ball once for him!

This site is lovely and in a very pretty location next to the river. It is well kept and the toilets and showers were very clean. Gareth who manages the site and his dog George were very friendly and welcoming. (Thanks to Gareth's sister and her 2 friends who were visiting for the weekend for keeping me company on Sat night) The only critiscm was the hairdryer in the ladies which was neither use or ornament, and there was nowhere to plug in your own. However it wouldn't put me off staying there again.
We can definately recommend The Woodlands tea room which is about a 5 min walk from the site - the cakes there are delicious!
