Lovely two weeks exploring the Lake District
We arrived to a very friendly welcome from the wardens, we paid and took our instructions to drive around and select a pitch. We were lucky to find pitch 21 was available, and thoroughly enjoyed our own ‘private’ glad for two weeks. There are two facility blocks, cleaned daily and at different times, so there is always one block available for use. The on-site shop stocks a range of food items, including all important ice creams on the hottest day in the UK. The NT woodland provided ‘on our doorstep’ daily dog walks, including to the local farm shop (with a cafe and sells a range of produce, including: fruit, vegetables, meat, cheese, bread and deli items). Or an extended walk up the River Kent to Hawes Lane Bridge, returning on the other side of the river and crossing back across the footbridge. We also enjoyed a longer day walk into Kendal and back, with a lunch stop at a pub in Kendal. We ventured further afield to explore Tarn Hows, Grizedale Forest, Arnside, Ennerdale Water and Ulverston Canal.
We thoroughly enjoyed our first stay on a full club site, and would recommend this great site with friendly wardens. We are looking forward to our next club site stay.
PS we were not staying with children so our star rating against ‘good for families’ is a bit of a guess (a ‘Not Applicable’ option needs to be provided).
