Before we go off anywhere i always read the reviews so that i can see what is happening on the site we are visiting . I read a review on here that said that Kendal was looking " Shabby " !! i was quite concerned by this as when we visited last year we found everything to be spot on ! anyway fear not as it still is spot on , i cant believe anyone can refer to this site as shabby . We received the warmest of welcomes from the new wardens and headed to our pitch where we found that there had been a lot of coppicing done to make the area a lot lighter and let the sun through the trees !! We had recently visited a private site in Anglesey and paid twice the price of Kendal but the facilities could not hold a candle to those at Kendal , they are clean and very cared for , and much more modern that a lot of other C/C sites. We managed to fit in all of our favourite things to do at Kendal , walk to the Barn ,and have coffee and yummy cakes, go along the river and let the dogs paddle, go into the woods at the back of the site and smell the wild garlic and see the first sign of the bluebells coming up and let the dogs run their little legs off ! We watched the little boy next to us go off with grandad to Dam the stream and cook marshmallows on his barbecue , better than video games in his bedroom !! So all in all if you like nature and woodland and being awoken to the sound of birdsong this is the site for you.
