Terrific!!

This was out first visit to the CL and we were a bit concerned about previous reviews which commented on the narrow approach and lack of TV/radio signal. The approach is a single track road but with clear views straight across the fields so easy to see anything coming. The access into the CL itself around the farm buildings was a bit tight (we have a twin axle) but we managed OK. The site itself is level and sheltered with stunning views across to Blencathra. There are six, single width hard standing pitches so any awnings end up on the grass. Plenty of walking straight out of the CL but a short drive takes you into prime fell walking country. Keswick has all the usual amenities but Booths supermarket, for us, was a bit on the expensive side. There is a Morrisons at Penrith (depending on how long you are there for). No problem with the TV signal although who needs it with views like this. Good signal on mobile phone with EE. At £11.50 a night, if you enjoy peace and quiet and don't mind using your own facilities, then this has got to be a good choice. No recycling on site, which was a shame. We took ours down to Threlkeld which has recycling bins in the car park.
