First Weekend Away
We recently joined the Caravan & Motorhome Club having just acquired a motorhome. I have always wanted to visit the Lake District and came across this site which provided everything we wanted - quiet location, near water and plenty to do within walking distance. We arrived in the dark as the journey up from North Wales took a bit longer than we had anticipated but we were met with a very warm welcome at Reception. We decided to choose a pitch pretty close to the walkway down to the lake side and there were plenty to choose from. The site is nicely laid out and I can imagine it's lovely in the summer when the trees are covered in leaves. The toilet block is extremely well maintained and warm with great showers. The hairdryers were not brilliant however - would have been happier using my own but there were no plug sockets which is fair enough. We met some lovely friendly people on the site when we went out to walk to Coniston which is on a flat path (muddy in places) which meanders through farm land with great view of the lake. Coniston village is lovely - we visited the graves of John Ruskin and Donald Campbell before catching the bus to Ambleside. I would definitely return to this site although I can imagine it's realy busy in the summer months.
