At short notice we looked for a site, near to home but with hardstanding due to the wet weather and more rain forecast. We booked two nights at Park Coppice, a site we hadn't visited in years but only an hour from home. We arrived on the one decent days in a long time and were greeted by the wonderful, friendly wardens. In the low season some areas are closed off, however there was plenty of choice of excellent pitches and we found a wonderful sheltered pitch. The site is brilliantly placed for walking - options of all levels either directly from site or a short drive away. We had two dogs with us, but one is recovering from surgery so we chose a gentle walk round Tarn Hows and a lakeside walk from the site - both were fantastic and ticked all our boxes. nearby is the Blue Bird cafe - down by the lake, rather than in the village. This had been recommended to us and did not disappoint. If you have a four pawed companion it is a must as the staff are such dog lovers and they made us feel so welcome despite having "soggy doggies!" We cannot thank the wardens enough for they unceasing pleasant nature and the hard work they put into looking after the site - no easy feat when it was raining so much. We will definitely be back and hopefully for longer!
