We stayed for a week, it was going to be two, but for some reason we really didn't like the feel of the site, nothing actually wrong with it, just not grassy enough for us to feel at home.
The location is excellent, benefiting from good access to footpaths, and car access to the lakes in general.
Between the site and the lake, there's a National Trust Campsite which you have access through if you want to launch a dingy or similar, but once you've take you stuff to the lakeside you do have to return your vehicle to the CC site immediately. Access isn't overly practical on peak B/H weekends, as the camp site can be very busy. Views across the lake from the NT site are quite stunning.
Facilities are very good, even with this huge site at full capacity, I don't recall waiting more than a couple of minutes for a shower.
There is wifi on site, though we found this poor and most of the time unusable ( however the wardens did report that there was a fault with our nearest antenna during our stay).
So , all in all, it's great, didn't suit us, but this must be a fantastic site for families who want to spend endless hours messing about at the side of the lake, I think it's a great site for kids, just not green enough for me!

A nice wooded site with the facilities up to the usual standard. Had to reject the first pitch we tried to use as it was impossible to level the van side to side even with levelling blocks, and I wouldn't like to see the site when it's full as some of the pitches looked a little 'crammed in' but I'd use it again providing it was out of peak season!
