Liked: The facilities were extremely clean. Pitches a decent siz. Handy fish and chip shop if you don’t fancy cooking
Disliked: The toilet block was a bit dark. The shower cubicles were large with sepeterate drying area, but the head was not at the right angle so drying area got sprayed

Liked: The facilities and location were excellent.
Disliked: Pitch was a little uninspiring, no view except on other motorhomes but as long as you have no intention of staying on site that doesn't matter.

Primitive grass tent or trailer tent campsite
Liked: This was the best campsite I have been in Lake District as far as location,facilities are great and clean,playground was in the centre of the pitches and if you set up your tent nearby you can check on kids without leaving your pitch.Available microwave in eating shed area and sockets to charge your mobile or pump your mat.
Disliked: Pitches could be a bit more hilly to allow water drain away from tent.

FHU gravel travel trailer campsite
Liked: Fantastic site located within the heart of Ullswater, highly recommend!! During our stay we completed Ullswater Way, which is a 22.5 miles circular walk. We were able to pick up the walk straight from the campsite and many other fells. Lots of beautiful surroundings, animals and scenery. Facilities were also fantastic, a hopper bus which takes you around all the local tourist hot spots. Great clean modern toilets and hot showers. Fish and Chip shop was also delicious and appreciated after a day of walking.
Disliked: Nothing!
