We stayed three nights in our campervan. The wardens were friendly and efficient and we picked a pitch close to the path that leads down to Derwent Water. Most pitches are under trees (so lots of pine needles fell on the van) but all are hardstanding, which helps. There's nowhere on site for children to play, but with the lakes and paths on the doorstep, it's not really a problem. The site is lovely and quiet, both during the day and particularly at night. We enjoyed a walk along the lake and took the regular lake cruiser across to the other side, before walking back to the campsite. We also enjoyed a great walk (in amazing weather) up Catsbells; the footpath up is almost opposite the campsite entrance. It's also a good spot from which to explore the Western Lakes, which we feel are the quietest and most unspoilt. Keswick is only 4 miles away by road, with many shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants. My wife even had a swim in the lake when I was out walking up Kirk Fell! It's certainly a site we'd return to.
