I recently visited the site for the first time for some road cycling and hiking. The site location is perfect, right next to Coniston water and the village itself is within easy walking distance if you wanted to pop to the pub one night. I really like the concept of being able to pick your own pitch. I was a bit apprehensive about this at first and spent a little bit of time drivng around to find a pitch but looking back I think it's a great idea and gives you complete freedom. There's an onsite food truck by reception which does really great pizza (perfect after a days cycling). I'll definitely be back again soon to this site.
