Borrowdale shop 2023

As running a site shop is a personal choice for site staff I think it's best to phone the site in advance rather than ask on a forum MountainView.

Keswick is only a few miles walk, ferry trip, bus or drive from the site and Booths or the Coop stock everything you will need.

kes market days on Thursdays and Saturdays only cancelled when high winds and downpours forcast 

Thanks to those who responded. I'm aware that running a shop is a personal choice for the staff, and I had tried to phone the site several times. We've now returned from our stay and for anyone else who wants to know, new wardens Jo and Mick are continuing to run the well stocked shop. Jo and Mick have improved the contactless/card payment device. Those who have stayed on the site may remember the poor mobile coverage which required the previous wardens to have to walk towards the entrance to get the card device to work. Jo and Mick's new device works on the site office wifi, so speeds up payment. On the subject of wifi, the club wifi doesn't extend much beyond the office, so the new wardens have sited a bench next to the office for guests to use has a hotspot, or hot bench. The wifi antenna is to be mounted on a pole to increase the range. Jo and Mick are lovely wardens. Very helpful and friendly. We had yet another wonderful visit and are looking forward to our next visit.

What a really helpful post.  I have been to Borrowdale on a couple of occasions and hope to do so again later in the year, so that info will be very useful for future visits.
