What a cracker of a site

Stayed here at the beginning of May and it was a great site for touring the area. Walk into Coniston is an easy path and it so much nicer than around Windermere. The staff look after this site really well keeping it clean and tidy. Will be returning

LOVE this site!

WOW!! First time here and it is amazing.... The biggest CAMC site we have ever stayed at, yet it doesn't feel crowded at all. The pitches are secluded and have fantastic views. Very spacious - we had 2 cars in our pitch with plenty of room. The facilities are great - we had an Amazon parcel arrive, and the staff were very helpful in holding it of us. The Fish and chip van was a nice surprise! The dog walks are incredible - we walked into Coniston every day and even managed a walk up the 'Old man of Coniston' one day - VERY hard work!!! This is without doubt the BEST site we have ever stayed at. 5 Star...

Great first outing in our Caravan.

This was the first outing in our Caravan and we were exceptionally pleased with the site and facilities. There are quiet areas to pitch, along with areas for families to give the children a safe area to play, in the childrens play area and socialise and make new friends. We have 2 dogs, dog walking is direct from the site, down along Conniston lake or you can take the route over the road and over Conniston Old Man as we did one of the days. The dog friendly "Ship Inn" is nearby also. The staff are exceptionally friendly and willing to help. Site Showers & toilet block are immaculate and a credit to the people there. We have a lot of exploring to do being newcommers to the Caravanning experience, however we are definitely returning to this site soon! Thank you to all at Conniston Park Coppice. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 😀😀😀👍

What a great site

Just back from 5 nights at Coniston. This is one we will definitely return to. We arrived via the North as we were coming from Ambleside. The road is very narrow in places and drove with wing mirrors folded on or motorhome. Two meetings with lorries were interesting! Going home we went South which was much easier. A very warm welcome from the site managers, plenty of choice of pitches as Easter break had finished. Next time we might go to a different part of the site. Trees were just coming into leaf so plenty of light. Excellent and spotless facilities so big tick for the management. We had two large dogs so plenty of walks but do taje care as there are sheep and lambs everywhere. We kept our dogs on leash until we found paths along Coniston turning North with no sheep. Walk to Coniston which is very nice is about 30-35 minutes by foot. Bus stop outside the campsite as well. We ate in Coniston twice and also took the Gondola steam boat which has discount if you are a NT member. Dogs were allowed on board. I have read some of the other comments about the site which are less complementary but our experience was a very enjoyable one and we have nothing but positive things to say. Maybe we were lucky but it only rained one night and we had totally dry days. Thank you again to the site team, most enjoyable stay. The scenery is stunning and always changing with different light dependent on the weather.

Peacefull, relaxing, chilling site with beautiful surrounding scenery.

Had the most pleasant weeks stay over May Day bank holiday. The site was full for the weekend, lovely to see young children playing amongst the woods. Even although the site was full, the peacefulness, listening to bird song was just lovely. The facilities was as we expected from the CMC , absolutely spotless, well done to the wardens for keeping it like that. The walks to the lake, into Coniston , seeing all the newborn skippy lambs , made our week even more enjoyable 😀, certainly kept Mrs B happy . Well done to all concerned for keeping the site as natural as it is, as spotless as it is & is it value for money, MOST DEFINETLY ,

lovely peaceful sit in a beautiful park of the country

Only our second trip away since buying our caravan, and my first on narrow roads. have to say it was easy to get to with a little forward planning. situated in a beautiful part of the country, very clean toilet blocks , Lovely and quiet, staff all very helpful and friendly, the walk from the bottom of the park into coniston village is lovely. ...........Over all a very good experience, we will definitely be going back again.................. Although i must add, Take your levelling blocks as most of the pitches are on some kind of angle, this isnt a problem at all though providing you have the kit to level the van safely ........

Easter Break

This campsite is set in a large forest, not far from Coniston and a path leads down to the lakeside. Although set into the hillside, the terraced hard standings make it feel quite secluded with 4 or 5 pitches to each 'bay'. We had a pitch across the road from a toilet block, which was clean and easy to use - the disabled facility accessed with our RADAR key were superb. We had requested to be near to it as we are both disabled, and even though we were by the roadside, it was still quiet and peaceful. The staff were very helpful, even when we found the gas valve was stuck, they were very helpful with suggestions. Will probably go again in the future, but our next trip is in Wales. If you are considering going to the site, its worth noting that they are carrying out essential maintenance to the top of the site from May, so there may be some disruption.

Superb site, stunning scenery and wonderful walks in all directions from the site.

Just stayed at Park Coppice for a long weekend. Really peaceful & relaxing stay. Everyone is helpful & friendly. The site is ideal for walking in the Lake District and would especially recommend the walf to Monk Coniston & Tarns Hows, absolutely stunning. Mobile signal is rubbish so probably invest in the WIFI charge next time. Washing facilities are first class and couldn't be faulted. Booked again for a 10 day trip in September. Can't wait.

Easter week stay with 2 children

We spent a week over Easter at the site and were really impressed. The facilities were extremely clean and although the site was full it still felt relaxed and peaceful. The setting is great for the kids exploring in the woods, though you do lose the view because of this, and the site is a lovely off road stroll from Coniston village. We had a lovely time even without much sunshine!

Spring Break with fellow Go Podders

A member of the Go PodCast Pals unofficial go pod owners network and met with fellow go podders on the site. A large site but didn't feel that way. Family friendly, clean, tidy and the toilets and showers real clean and accessible. Enjoyed the rear gate to the site that ventured onto Cumbria Way for choice of walk along Coniston Lake or for pleasant walk amongst sheep (and lambs) into Coniston Village for the pub, shops, Museum or just for the pleasant walk. Could do with placing a sign in the village to direct to the site as, getting lost in narrow streets with a caravan is no simple matter when turning. 160 mile each way trip from Glasgow (Bridge of Weir) was certainly worth the last 40 miles of tight Lake District Roads. Staff very friendly.
