First visit to the Kendal site and having read the previous reports, I agree totally with thier descriptions of the site. We'd looked at the locality and saw little to do within a mile or two (as most motorhomers don't take a car, so it's a walk or the daily bus, perhaps), but as we were only staying a couple of nights - on the way to Coniston CC - we relied on other members' reviews. Excellent site, showers OK, but getting tatty; wardens friendly, helpful and in short supply, it seems. The site history is very interesting and considering how gunpowder was needed and created, used, etc, it all seems to make sense. Lots of nice walks, wild flowers, birds, the River Kent, etc - a fantastic spot. I took 800 photos in one afternoon and a full day, thank heaven I wasn't using films. Mention Kendal to anyone and they think (or say) 'mint cake'. Fortunately, this isn't in Kendal. Definitely be back for longer. Wish we'd driven round Coniston, then come back to this site for the whole break.
