We have just visited the site for 5 days leaving today Fri 5th August. On arrival I wasn't in love with the site. It seems a little strange. We drove around and found a pitch ( the site is a fairly big site) on reflection the pitch maybe was the issue... not level and far too much gravel. There are lots of pitch areas and some singles at the side of the road - we chose a little group section. The areas around the pitches seem a little unkempt but I know this is for the wildlife - it just seems a little messy. There is however plenty of wildlife. The site is close to Coniston water which is lovely. The walk to Coniston is easy and the walk along the shore the opposite way is lovely. So after feeling I didn't like the site I ended up thinking it was ideal. Lovely area, nice staff and probably the best/cleanest toilet blocks I've visited. Give it a go - let the area take you over and you'll love it too.
