Busy and popular site
Kendal Club Campsite
We stayed here for just one night as a stopover on our way to Scotland. On arrival we had been allocated a pitch which for just one night was fine with us (and the pitch was very nice). Wardens were very welcoming and friendly. Pitches are dotted about in groups amongst the trees, our pitch was level but others are not and would need levelling blocks. The footpaths surrounding the site were closed as it was so wet! Facilities were clean and the site was very busy with families as it was bank holiday weekend. Would return here if in the area again.
Bank holiday at kendal
Kendal Club Campsite
Myself and the family had the Easter bank holiday here at Kendal for the first time this year. What a beautiful well kept site, the staff were ever so friendly and welcoming. The site is a lovely quiet site set in a lovely woodland, with walks in all directions, the walk to the farm shop not far away was lovely, little muddy but going on how much rain we’ve had in the last 8 months it’s to be expected, so if you have any trouble on your feet just be wary if it’s been wet for a while. The site is perfect in location to get to anywhere in the lakes within a short drive, Kendal farmers market was good also (last Friday of the month I believe). All in all we can’t wait to visit again and the site will become one of our regular sites. Thank you again staff and wardens for a fantastic holiday, full marks

Quiet overnight stay
Kendal Club Campsite
A lovely overnight stay - peaceful and quiet. Easy walk to the pub - too wet to try the track route so went along the road. Great shower - lots of hot water. Would stay again.

What a lovely site
Kendal Club Campsite
What a lovely site, pitches in wooded areas, great location for a long stay in Cumbria or a stop over on route to north or south. We booked for one night and we're so pleased we extended our stay. As well as the above there is loads of history on site, old gun powder works, leats, other remains of a distant age. Site staff are excellent.
Lovely quiet site with lovely site managers
Kendal Club Campsite
Mine was a two night stay for the purpose of visiting a local motorhome dealer and to run the parkrun at Fell Foot, which I highly recommend.
There is little or nothing I can add about the site beyond what is stated in other reviews. The gardens and grounds at Sizergh are worth a visit.
I last stayed at this site in August 2014. It has changed little from my vague recollection. Many of the pitches are potentially awkward for motorhomes due to the sloping ground.
I hope it may be more useful if I focus on cycling from the site.
I'll restrict myself to the one road cycling route I cycled during my brief stay.
The ride is only 13 miles, all on road, the route for which can be found here:
https://connect.garmin.com/modern/course/203655582 . The route is mostly on quiet lanes – some so quiet it would be unlucky to see any motor vehicle. Some of the lanes are in a poor state and an all road or gravel bike is ideal. A mountain bike wouldn't be out of place. This isn't an ideal route for a Tour de France bike !!
The route has its challenges – one in particular. Mostly the route is fairly gently undulating. There are two slightly longer climbs, not steep, soon after crossing under the A590 at approx 3.5 miles. The route becomes a little more challenging after crossing the A65 at approx 5.9 miles. The first of two climbs isn't too steep and is followed by a short descent before a second, steeper climb to the summit of the route. The chances of meeting another vehicle here are close to zero and there is no shame in walking a short section. It is perfectly rideable except I rode it after heavy rain and strong winds during autumn and the lane was covered in sticks and slippery wet leaves. Due to concerns about traction (when I was riding a bike with slick tyres) I walked a short section. From the top of the climb there is a short steep descent ending in a T-junction with the B6254 at approx 7.3 miles. It is steep right to the junction and care needs to be taken as the junction is approached. Good brakes are required. From that point there is a fast descent on a good road surface towards Kendal and the rest of the route holds no challenges, except to be enjoyed. I hope someone may find this suggested route helpful.
