Excellent site
Second short stay at this site and both very enjoyable. Peacefull woodland setting. Super walk into Kendal which is fairly flat and easy - can always get a taxi back.

A great forest retreat
We stayed here for four nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The site is set in a wooded area with pitches amongst the trees. Very quiet and picturesque. The staff were helpful and the toilet blocks were very clean. There was the added bonus of the fish and chip van every Friday night. The local area was excellent being close to Windermere, Ambleside and Grange over Sands. All well worth a visit. We would go back to this site again.
Great site, great staff
Great site, only the weather let it down but as they say if it wasn't for the rain there would be no lakes. Staff were superb and toilet block immaculate.
Wonderful site
What a wonderful site,from arriving the friendly staff make you feel at home and welcome. The site is very quiet and clean and a good base too get round the area. The information area is very informative with lots of information about what is happening and where to visit. Although the weather was not good it did not put a damper on our visit
Lovely woodland site.
A great selection of different pitches in a woodland setting - excellent for dogs. The wardens were friendly and the information centre is the best we have seen. Excellent range of walks from the site meaning that you do not need to use the car. The farm shop is a short walk through the woods and sells a great selection of produce including raw milk direct from the cows in the barn next door. The Strickland Arms is dog friendly and serves fantastic food with a wide selection of draught beers.
superb site
Absolutely brilliant site, one of our favourites, great location & layout, great walks, lovely pub/restaurant nearby. Will be back.
Cannot fault!
Cannot fault anything at this site. Facilities extremely clean, facilities nice and close. Lovely and quiet and peaceful. The staff are very friendly and helpful. I arrived extremely tired after an 8 hour drive and the lady in Reception was fabulous, even came to check that I was ok and made sure I didn't need anything, much appreciated! Definitely revisit next year!
First stay and not the last
We used this site to break up a long journey, and discovered an absolute gem. The staff were very humorous and helpful, the site itself is wonderfully laid out, in fact I would say probably the best site we've stayed in ever from a Caravan Club point of view. I don't know if it's new but it's condition was immaculate. Brilliant if you have a dog, beautiful surrounding countryside and no road noises at all. Can't praise it or the staff enough. Well done.
Rough off "Piste"
The access road could do with a bit of attention, it is very overgrown, I am sure a local farmer would oblige and not break the bank. The grounds away from the main site roads are also very overgrown and could do with a bit of attention, the sign showing the "wild flower borders" also include stinging nettles and sticky willy which I am sure are not particularly nice wild flowers.
Another reviewer commented on th trees, they do tend to cut out the light, we were at a lower level and it was very dark by early afternoon. Get the chainsaws out and thin out.

Last minute booking
We added three nights at Kendal on our way to Skye as we were able to get away earlier than planned. What a fantastic find! The warden at reception told us where the best pitches were for access to the walks through the woods as we had our dog with us. So we set off through the trees to find one of the many secluded areas that have pitches. We pitched and attached the dog tether and then wondered why our Husky was sitting amongst the wild garlic – it turns out that she was sitting in the midst of a rabbit warren waiting for one to come out! We loved everything about this site, it has history, nature, a good farm shop (Low Sizergh Barn) and dog friendly foodie pub (The Strickland Arms) within walking distance. Excellent!
