Lovely Area

We arrived on 5th June for 6 nights. All Wardens very friendly and helpful, in fact one of the best teams we've come across, all smiley and cheerful when ever you saw them and kept the site immaculate. Service pitch great size and plenty of room for car one side and awning the other giving great privacy between neighbours. However one chap with a caravan took no notice of the wardens pitching request and reversed in right up to the edge of the gravel next to us with aqua roll etc on the grass, any nearer and he'd have been on our pitch. I did ask him to adjust it and pitch as requested to comply with regulations which he did do thankfully, but why do it in the first place!! Another caravan near us was seen filling the toilet cassette from the service pitch drinking water tap, Holding the emptying nozzle over the tap. I explained the issues with this which seemed to go totally over their head, I wonder if the CCC could put signs on service pitch taps stating drinking water only no toilet casette filling. I would not want to attach a hose to a tap that's had a cassette nozzel over it. Finally inconsiderate lazy dog owners (not the dogs fault) allowed pets to poo on pitches and on the main road through the site. You know who you are so please take your dogs to the dog walk. I also noted some guests  had up to 4 dogs with them which in my view is to many, there was lots of barking and yapping up at the top end of the service pitch area near the dog walk. The CCC might consider allowing only 2 dogs or areas for dog owners with multiple pets or additional charges.  None of this reflects on the wardens who cannot have eyes everywhere but on inconsiderate club members who have no thought for fellow members. That said this is a really nice site and area and we will visit again.

Visitors from East Yorkshire

New to caravaning we are still looking for the more easily accessible sites. In this regard Troutbeck was ideal. Great location for visiting the northern half of the lakes. Took advantage of a serviced pitch for the first time and what a great choice that was.

June Visit.

When we arrived we got a warm welcome form the Wardens. From our caravan we could see the fells in the background magnificent. Achieved one of my ambitions, I went clay pigeon shooting at the outdoor centre next to the caravan site. Plus we blessed with good weather most of the time. Visited many of the attractions of the lake district. A very enjoyable stay.

Great Witsun Week Break

We still can't believe it never rained for the whole week - never been seen in the Lakes. Fab site, peaceful location only spoilt by someone complaining to the wardens about the teenagers -  There is always one, but hey, we were all one at some stage in our lives. The wardens made an error by giving a pitch key out while we were searching for ours to a family signing in - this should never have been done, it made us very angry. Will be back next year

Perfect stopover on way home

We stopped here 1 night on way back home from Scotland about 15 mins from M6 at Penrith. beautiful setting peace and quiet, all facilities good with plenty of showers and the biggest shower cubicles Ive seen. We parked next to a generator of some sort so was a bit noisy but as it was only 1 night didn't matter. Wonderful walk for the dog at the end of the site onto a forest path. Love to go back and stay longer and enjoy some hill walking

Good location and well managed site

We stayed here at end of may for the week. Lovely spot with good 3G signal but unfortunately no wi-fi on site. Toilet blocks are not typical CC design but kept clean and tidy. Very handy dog/bike wash. Easy travel to Keswick and Derwent Water, and to Ambleside and middle of Lakes. Small dog walk on site alongside drive, but is a forest walk on stony tracks off site.

The Wardens are the best

The wardens worked extremely hard at keeping the grass and grounds looking nice and fresh. Also the wardens kept the younger children very safe and looked after them. They were very welcoming and friendly.

Another winner

A fantastic location with the friendliest managing team met thus far. Wonderful for all lake land facilities in and around Keswick. Great views if you get the right pitch and fabulous fish & chips Tuesday and Friday!

Excellent location near Keswick

We stayed here for 5 nights in our MH in late May-16.  It is an ideal location for seeing the area and walking but we were glad we'd taken a car too.  Site facilities are perfectly good enough.  We were bothered by a dog yapping next door before 7am but hardly the fault of the site management.  I suspect we'll be back.
