Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked: Sid who runs the Caravan Park was a lovely host and very welcoming. Only 5 hard standing pitches, which we loved as we like smaller campsites that are a little bit quieter. The wi-fi was pretty good for the Lakes too, where it can often be quite tricky to get signal/internet.
Disliked: We liked pretty much everything. There is only 1 shower, but it's always got hot water, it's very spacious and we never had to wait for it either.

Electric hardstanding motorhome pitch
Liked: Clean toilets and shower. Just 5 campervan pitches each with an allocated toilet and shared shower. Easy access to fells and lakes.
Disliked: It was quite pricey at £35 a night for a hardstanding pitch with EHU in April. The washing up facilities were perfectly adequate for our needs but for the price they were a bit basic. I wouldn't have mentioned this if it had been £25 per night. The site was predominantly static lodges and there wasn't a reception but there was a telephone number if you needed anything.

Liked: I don't want to say too much here as everyone will want to come here. If you don't like quiet don't come here. If you don't like friendly owners who give you lots of tips - don't come If you don't want your own loo with your own pitch - don't come If you dont like walking , great scenery, accessible walks and a wild life park- don't come
