Peaceful Cumbria

Beautiful site. Booked a super pitch with water and drainage - well worth the price Will definitely return to explore the more remote/less ‘touristy’ parts of the Lakes

Lovely stopover

We just stayed one night on our way from the Midlands to Scotland. There is a woodland walk directly from the site. There are two amenity blocks so there is always open. Lovely stay and very friendly staff. Thank you

Perfect peaceful place

First visit to this site but certainly will not be the last! Beautifully located and kept, extremely friendly and helpful staff, good sized pitches (we were on a fully serviced), at one with nature, red squirrels made daily visits. Easy to get to most of the Lakes and not a site that suffers when it rains.

Beauty of the Earth

Just returned from a fabulous 4 days on site . Peace and tranquility and with one with nature . The facilities are spotless and the staff are the most friendly we’ve experienced for a long time Nothing was too much trouble and even when our electric blew , Warden arrived ready and equipped to sort us out . Great location for touring the lakes and gorgeous scenery to be seen all around . Travelled along single track roads to get to done fabulous locations as well as the lovely towns of Keswick , Ambleside , pooled bridge , Ulswater , Grassmere , Buttermere and numerous other villages . We were on pitch 105 and no noise heard . We also didn’t get bitten by midges but did use a blue fluorescent light to avoid them . Definitely will be booking a return trip and next time will take swimwear to open swim in the lakes

Lovely site but a bit of noise!

An absolutely gorgeous site with all the usual facilities and lovely staff. However I have knocked a mark off as there was quite some noise directly behind us (pitch 79) from a shooting range. It made our stay not as peaceful as it should have been. Nevertheless a nice site in a stunning location.

Poor site for nervous dog

We were happy with our pitch nice and private with the beck running in front of us although there were alot of midgies. The site has good facilities with friendly helpful wardens, the big problem for us was the activity centre directly next to the site, there was Clay Pidgeon shooting and quad bikes on and off for most of the day some days starting at 8.o'clock. We have a nervous dog and she was very upset with all the noise, shaking, panting and wouldn't eat, we tried to stay off site all.day which wasn't ideal as we wanted to walk for a couple of hours and then chill. So although a nice.site we will not be visiting again.

Good location for start of Lake District break - beware the midgies!

I can’t fault the cleanliness and location of the site, though you definitely need transport to visit the area or have a good level of fitness to explore. We enjoyed the 22 mile cycle into Keswick which is on quiet roads and the old railway track which is stunning. Our biggest problem was the local insect life. We live in Scotland and are well used to midgies and the ones at Troutbeck are on an advanced level so be prepared!

Extra surprise 1

3rd visit to Troutbeck Head & we used a serviced pitch this time which was excellent, opposite our pitch ( No. 20 ) most evenings we saw Badgers going about there business which was an unexpected treat. Regards the noise from next door we noticed a faint rumble from the quads & shotguns but I think it is down to which part of the site you are on it didn't spoil our stay there & look forward to our 4th visit.

Troutbeck head site

I don’t normally leave reviews but after our week at Troutbeck i feel i should warn people about the neighbours. The outdoor activity centre/Farm next door is very noisy, everday for a week from 9am to 6/7 pm we had Quad bikes roaring past the back of our pitch. Then after the quads have finished the shotguns start with the clay pigeon shooting. When this is finished the farmer then starts his work tractors machinery etc, on the Thursday night it sounded like they were dragging a skip up & down the road until gone midnight. Its not like us to complain but i did speak to one of the wardens the next morning who said he would ring the farmer and have a word. Its a real shame as the site is in a beautiful spot but avoid the pitches at the bottom of the site which border the farm.

Stopover Site

We stopped over on the journey to Scotland. It’s a really superb site with excellent facilities (COVID protocols being managed much better than other sites we have been to) and very good hardstandings. It’s very much a caravanners site as needing to drive out to walk anywhere. A couple of surprises - the midges were pretty bad (even compared to the Scottish Highland CAMC sites) but there were red squirrels on site, which were good to see. We will definitely be back, even if only as a stopover.
