Coniston with all its history and character is a bit special!

A lovely site well situated for Coniston Water which can be accessed straight out of the site. The site is huge and so the pitches tend to be generous and although almost full, never felt crowded. The adjacent bridleway walks us into Coniston village in about twenty minutes. Plenty of pubs and cafes. A fair selection of retail shops. There was a water sport event taking place timing jet skis and motor boats, really exciting and noisy! We did not want to walk the high peaks so we walked to Hawkshead a really nice walk to a beautiful village. Tarn Hows is also a walk away and well worth visiting. The Lake District is always worth a visit, Coniston with all its history and character is a bit special, have a great visit.

Stunning site!

This is a beautiful wooded site. Pitches are arranged in small groups which makes it feel very secluded. (If you don't like shade and trees then don't stay here) The on site shop is well stocked, and the Pizza van on Saturday night was very welcome! Staff were lovely (as expected from CMC) Shower blocks and facilities beautifully clean. I really can't fault the site. An easy walk into Coniston village meant we could leave our Camper on site and really enjoy a day with no worries about parking. Perfectly located for access to the Lakes and the Peaks. We enjoyed walks in the Langdale Valley, as well as a trip to Windermere. So many things to see and do that I can guarantee we will be returning.

Great Site!

Stayed on site for 8 nights last week and we had a great time! The site staff were very helpful on arrival and although we didn't need any assistance, I'm sure they would have been more than obliging. The pitches all seem to be a good size, but slope usually in at least two directions. It's not a problem but make sure you have levelling blocks, you will need them! The facilities are excellent and access to the lake is very easy via a track. There are sheep in the adjacent fields though so dogs really do need to be kept on leads, for their own safety as well as for the sheeps. TV signal was atrocious at times, even when hooked up to the plug on the mains post. I guess it's just the area and being in a wood! Great site and would definitely stay there again. Oh, the roads in and out of the village are tight and you do get coaches as well as local traffic, including tractors. Good fun but a bit scary at times!

Another Gem on the network

I had not visited the site before but my wife and I attended for the first 2 weeks in September although we did have to cut it short following a major leak in the roof of our Bailey caravan. The wardens at the site were so helpful from the moment we arrived to the moment we left. the site was always kept clean and tidy and even in the rain the staff had a smile on their faces. They quickly resolved the issue of the TV aerial points failing one morning for no apparent reason and i witnessed them helping other members on the site with some of their difficulties too. The site has good access down to the lake and is in a great position to all into Conniston which is about a mile and past at least 2 pubs so it can take some time and we walked from the site to do the Old man of coniston. we had a great time thank you

minor disappointments

this was our sixth visit to this site, and it was a lot busier than usual for this time in September, our usual favoured pitches were occupied and so we tried a different part of the site. We were up not far from the new Glamping area; the site plan shows a service point there but after we had pitched and set up we found out that it was not actually there it's now used to service the two Airstream hire vans! That meant a much longer trek for water and wc disposal, great with my heart and kidney problems. Please don't neglect your core members for the sake of your pods Also TV booster signal very erratic, some nights tv was unwatchable. Office said new system installed in july and had no issues. Talking to other caravanners and they had similar problems with the signal. Never had these previously, please sort. Apart from this, site is spotless and staff friendly and helpful.

Fantastic site, so much to do, amazing location!

We stayed with our 4 daughters and our dog, this is a fantastic site, my girls loved staying in the woods, we were pitched opposite one of the three play areas so it was fairly noisy during the day but my children were at the park having a brilliant time with new friends, I like the noise of children playing but I noticed the site is a lot quieter at the top away from the play areas. The location is excellent, there is so much to do, we only used our car once during the week, there are lots of off road cycle routes direct from the site, we rode to Torver and had tea and cake at the Torver Deli, we hired a motor boat from Coniston Water which was great fun, we drive to Grizedale Forest and did GoApe, we walked up the Old Man and enjoyed stunning views, it was a fantastic week and the site was a perfect base, I can’t fault it.

Another exellent stay

Another excellent stay at this site, only let down by one or two campers not having dogs on leads. Unfortunately I had to report one family to the wardens after there dog entered our awning at the start of the week, but after that it was kept on a lead. If I had taken my dog and let him run round not on a lead I would have everybody complaining, because of the type of dog he is.

Great Site, Fantastic Location

We stayed for a week at the site recently and had a lovely stay. The location is superb for both Coniston and the lake. Facilities were spotless and staff very friendly. My only negative comment which is not the fault of the site but other guests, was that we were constantly faced with other guests walking through our pitch as a shortcut to the toilet block. Pizza were superb, fish and chips average. Highly recommend the site and we will be staying again next year.

Great site

This is a lovely site within easy walking distance of Coniston through beautiful scenery. It’s very close to the Lake’s edge and is set in rambling woods. It is a big site but it doesn’t feel like it as the pitches are set off the road in small wooded areas. It is a good site for families with small children so the noise level is a bit raised at times. The staff are extremely helpful and friendly and the tiolets/ showers are immaculate.

Peaceful and Restful

After reading other reviews we were worried this was not the site for us, how wrong we were. We had 10 peaceful and restful days. Even though we got to the site early the staff were happy to check us in (if only all sites were like this). You do need to walk around to find a good pitch as some are a lot better than others due to the ground not being level.The walk to Coniston is a must and quite easy. Our only gripe was a small motorhome which came in just before we left with two dogs that would run out barking every time we came back which upset our small dog. But that said it is a very good site with good staff
