Liked: The Pizza's (on Saturday nights) at the owners farmhouse. The location. The local pub (that has recently opened which serves great food). The campsite owner who was knowledgeable about the weather (the weather was better than the forecast and we were able to do a good high level walk)
Disliked: A bit muddy in places.

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: To basic if your are camping in the rain (Coast to Coast hike), no hot water, no drying facilities, only two (not working properly) toilets. No phone signal for checking weather forecast. There is a shower in the main building, did not go there to far a walk in the rain. ‘Maby nice weather camping’ only. Did not like there is no personal contact with the owners. Did not feel comfortable at night.

Liked: Clean showers, toilets and washing facilities. Fantastic Pizzas on the Saturday night. Accessible Parking next to tent and easy to drive to. Walking distance of Seathwaite entrance to Scafell pike.
Disliked: Couldn't order more Pizza late on, they only make to order so if you have a big appetite then preorder the extra. Myself and my 15 year old son could have smashed a pizza and a half 😋😋 No phone signal which I was using for maps, I didn't want to be on my phone but would definitely buy a physical map for next time.

Liked: Amazing location. Can walk from the campsite to the top of Scafell. Hot showers and clean site. Great pizza on Saturday evenings. Owners are very kind and responsive to questions.

Liked: Location of site is perfect, could be another toilet and hot water for washing pots would be good, looks like it has gas for boilers, but none was fitted. Showers are really clean and perfectly hot. 1 local pub, reasonably priced and decent food. 1 local hotel, brilliant WiFi and staff very friendly.
Disliked: Not a dislike for me, but beware, showers are c. 5 min walk from the site

Liked: The campsite is well signposted and all the information you need clearly displayed. The shop at the farm is great, serving hot drinks and treats as well as maps and gifts etc. The wood fired pizza on the Saturday was delicious. Facilities are clean and well maintained. The campsite is in a great location- The Yew Tree pub in Seatoller has just reopened and there are lots of walking routes setting off from the site - no need to drive anywhere.
