Charming CL site
Bridge End Garage
A peaceful, friendly site in a pretty village. Opposite the Mardale Inn a dog-friendly pub where you can get good food and drink. Very clean toilet. Well located for walks up Bampton Common and around Mardale. Only downsides are no little or no wifi or mobile data. Also dog walks from the site involved walking on an unpaved road, but it wasn’t a big deal.
We will return here.

Peaceful, simple site, very well kept.
Bridge End GarageStayed 2 nights in June. Friendly owner. 5 well kept large pitches with EHU. 1 immaculate loo. Fresh water and waste facilities. Great location for long walks...Make sure you can read OS maps as some footpath signs disappear! We walked over Bampton Common with great views of the reservoir below. Handy community shop and the village pub is simply gorgeous. It's also community owned and with friendly staff and locals. If you intend to eat here, you must book in advance. We sadly didn't so unfortunately we missed out on the meals. Happy to drink in the dog friendly bar though. The campsite also sells fuel and it really is a bargain price - we were unable to take advantage, having filled up in Penrith. This site is family owned and the village is very pretty so I'd highly recommend spending your time (& money) here. We'll visit again.
Lovely place and people
Bridge End Garage
Beautiful spot and probably the nicest bathroom we have seen so far. The place was easy to find, although coming from the south there are a couple of very narrow spots. Once settled, we had sleep and Cons as our neighbours. As mentioned in previous comment there is no phone signal there apart from in a corner of the filed. Also very little 4g but there is wi-fi at the pub. Lovely walk and bike rides from there. Very nice chats with the owners.

Cl site
Bridge End Garage
Have just left Bridge end garage site after a 3 week stay. We both didn’t want to leave what a spectacular site with red squirrels making the odd appearance. The only downside very poor phone signal we did manage to get 1 to 2 bars in our van just lucky. Wi-Fi in pub and local shop both under 5 minutes away. Good reviews about food in pub didn’t eat there I like to cook in van did have a few pints after our evening walk. Walking from site is absolutely stunning whether is up mountains or hill in front of site. Wife dropped myself and dogs off at bottom end of reservoir 4 hour walk back along footpath opposite side of road No problem getting into site we have a large twin axle buccaneer If you want peace and quiet you won’t find a better site

Absolute bliss
Bridge End Garage
Our first trip out as members and we chose this wonderful site.
We have a twin axle caravan and found the way in from Shap village a little tight, so went home via Askam. Although it was further and longer, the roads are much wider and much less stressful.
The site is extremely well kept (bins, disposal point etc) with plenty pitch space. Single toilet that was very clean.
Owners very friendly and helpful. They have fuel at their garage on site, which is a lot cheaper than anywhere else we saw.
Haweswater is well worth a drive by (or walk) and at the end are three choices of walk, of varying lengths.
Shap Abbey is beautiful, with a river to cool off for people or dogs.
We tried the Punchbowl Pub at Askam - delicious food but very slow service.
Shap chippy is great and there's a co op open til late if you run out of milk!
We would definitely go back.
