  • Fredfull park med utsikt over Ullswater
  • Moderne anlagt med spektakulær utsikt over Lake District
  • Vaskeri, tørkerom, nærbutikk og stort lekeområde
‘It is the happiest combination of beauty and grandeur, which any of the lakes affords,’ wrote that romantic William Wordsworth, before wandering lonely as a cloud and penning his poem about daffodils bobbing about on the banks of Ullswater. And it's easy to see why… Ullswater is said by many to be the most beautiful lake in Britain, so staying in the countryside overlooking its banks will lull any wilters into a relaxed (and romantic) mood in no time. You won’t even have to pitch a tent to retreat and get away from it all in style: the owners at lovely Hillcroft, steps away from Ullswater, will be very pleased to introduce you to their affordable camping pods, sleeping up to four (two adults and two children under five) and each with their own mini balcony. The park is modern, landscaped and snuggled among gorgeous views of the English countryside: base yourself here to relax and bloom, or to wander o’er hills and vales as you explore the Lake District. Facilities on site include all you need with a launderette, drying room, well-stocked licensed shop, washing-up area, wifi, a parent and baby washroom, and toilets with disabled access; there’s a huge play area for the little sprouts, and tail waggers are welcome too.

Camping-pod (ingen kjæledyr, med baderom)

Likte: Lovely glamping pods, spacious and well equipped kitchen area. Ensuite was very handy, although we did head up to the toilet block a couple of times as they were the best I have ever seen on a campsite! Well deserving of the 'Loo of the Year' Award. 2 year old enjoyed the park and 12 year old the games room. Short walk into Pooley Bridge. We would definitely recommend!

Camping-pod (ingen kjæledyr)

Likte: Pod, facilities, clean and well kept site , like the way the bins and water taps are surrounded by dry stone walking in keeping with the surroundings.

Likte ikke: Poorly stocked shop not open when it said it should be and games room not open (October half term)

Camping-pod

Likte: Site was clean, staff friendly, lots of different accommodation options to suit all budgets. Space to bbq in camping pods

Likte ikke: As the name suggests its on a hill so it's a little bit of a walk up the hill from the centre

Camping-pod

Likte: Stayed in a pod with two children. We had an enclosed decked space for cooking, designated parking and picnic table. The site isn't overcrowded but never felt like a trek to the facilities, which were pristine (always seemed to be someone cleaning whenever we were about). Small shop with all the essentials on site, every member of staff we interacted with was friendly and helpful. Lovely park for the kids and recreational field. Location is ideal; walking distance to Pooley Bridge (although it's an uphill walk back which was fine for us but may be better to nip around in the car if that could be a struggle). Ideal base for driving to other local places of interest around Ullswater.

Likte ikke: Kids disliked having to leave. Genuinely can't fault it. Huge fan of this site now and definitely want to come back. Didn't need to use the WiFi so can't comment on it.

Camping-pod

Likte: Amazing campsite set in a Beautiful location. The pod was really clean and surprisingly really warm. The pod was enclosed with a little decking and fenced, great for our dogs. A little barn door too which was great to allow airflow. Campsite was a 10-15 minutes walk away from pooley bridge with loads of pubs shops and on Ullswater lake. Campsite was super friendly. The shower and toilet block were the cleanest I’ve ever seen. These a radio playing nature music 24/7 which was a great touch. Loads of cubicles great for busy summer months. Showers really clean powerful and warm.

Likte ikke: In the pod there could’ve been a few more hooks and shelf. We was living out of bags in the floor. Would it been nice to put our food up a little higher so it wasn’t in the floor.

Lokale attraksjoner

Never be dull around Lake Ullswater, which has a watery wealth of things to do: take a trip on Lady Dorothy or one of the other Ullswater Steamers; zip across the lake in a motorboat or drift around gently on a yacht; go rowing, go diving… or be overwhelmed at the crashing waterfall Aira Force, also mentioned by Wordsworth in his Lake District scribblings. Those who like to stretch their legs a tad more can make their way to the nearby village of Glenridding at the south of Ullswater to scale Helvellyn, England’s third highest mountain (goggleboxers or campers of a less energetic bent might be persuaded to come along too as this was the setting for the TV series The Lakes). The village of Pooley Bridge to the north is five minutes’ walk away from Hillcroft and has exceptional views, three pubs and a sixteenth century bridge straddling the River Eamont. It’s said that the Lake District can experience four seasons in one day, so luckily there’s an array of attractions around suitable for all types of British weather: take tea at Dalemain Historic House and Gardens; trundle on the Lakeside Railway from Haverthwaite to Windermere; gape at the Ice Age stalactites at White Star Cave; go underground again at the Honister Slate Mines; or rabbit away to Jemima Puddle Duck and Mrs Tiggy-Winkle at Bowness’s The World of Beatrix Potter.
