Set in National Trust woodland, Kendal Club Campsite is so peaceful you'll not want to leave. From the country lane approach running beside a tumbling river, to the glades where you can pitch amidst the wild flowers, this caravan park is a small slice of heaven. Some will be interested to know that Kendal Club Campsite is on the site of a 19th-century gunpowder mill.
Kendal Club Campsite lets you enjoy nature to the full, from the swoop of the fells to the luxurious blue of the lakes. There are several scenic walks to be had and don't forget to bring along your binoculars because the bird life is varied and colourful. If you're a wild flower enthusiast you won't be disappointed as you'll see a range of marvellous blooms on display, not least wild orchids. For those who enjoy the sport of fishing, the campsite also features a river that is popular amongst anglers (with a National River Licence). When you fancy a bite to eat, the nearby market town of Kendal is famous for its mint cake and trusted for its hearty meals. Nearby facilities including a farm shop, supermarket and cafe, enable you to conveniently stock up on supplies for your holiday.
The site is a great base from which to explore the delights of Cumbria and the Lake District, with Windermere just 13 miles from the site and Keswick a further 20 miles beyond. It also makes an ideal stopover point for onward travel towards Scotland.

Exceptional site
Kendal Club Campsite
We received a lovely warm welcome when we arrived. When enquiring about the history of the site we were signposted to the information room where there were leaflets about the history of the site. We were also informed of a national trust guided walk that takes place on a Friday afternoon every couple of months for a cost of £3. We met the guide Sue and had a wonderful and very informative walk of the site and were told of its history as a gunpowder mill. Well worth doing and would do it again.
The walk up to Sizbugh castle was easy even though we stayed on the road and didnt walk across the fields. The farm shop is within easy access but is ver6 expensive.
Will definitely be going back and will stay longer next day.

Second visit
Kendal Club Campsite
For our first ever touring experience in 2023 we visited Kendal and had a wonderful time so decided to return this year. Site warden was wonderful and helpful, we even managed to secure same plot as last year as it was one of the sole caravan secluded ones ( having dogs makes this easier to keep them quiet) Site kept clean and tidy and no problems with shower access even in July. The riverside walk in the forest and wild garlic path that we enjoyed last year was a disappointment as not accessable due to being overgrown and muddy. Weather didnt help.
This site is located for easy access to the surrounding lakes which we found useful.
It is definately a site for couples looking for a peaceful break and keen walkers but not much for families to do. Will definately visit again. Thank you for a lovely visit
Beautiful well kept quiet site
Kendal Club Campsite
Just spent three weeks at Kendal site as always it is very well kept, toilet blocks are spotlessly clean, really love this site as it sits in a large wood, if you keep your eyes open lots to see we saw a buzzard daily and two nights saw a tawny owl. The pitches are well kept and spacious, the wardens very helpful and will try to do the best they can to make your stay pleasant. Will be returning later for another three weeks. There are lots of places to visit within a short drive for a treat visit Arnside chippy.

Ein ruhiges, naturnahes Fleckchen Erde
Kendal Club Campsite
Leider waren wir nur eine Nacht hier.
Der Platz hat eine tolle Lage, inmitten der Natur. Man kann gut spazieren, gut mit dem Fahrrad fahren.
Die Ausstattung ist gut und es gibt alles was nötigt ist.
Besonders toll war der Geruch nach Bärlauch und das dementsprechende Angebot an frischem Bärlauch.
Vielleicht schaffen wir es noch einmal hier zu übernachten.
