Just returned from the site last week , just before it is due to close for the winter. Staff excellent when we arrived it was teeming down, the staff guided us to the pitches that weren't holding water and helped us to pitch up.The weather changed for the better after Sunday, we had a great time walking round Derwentwater, had a great meal in the Troutbeck Inn, just been taken over by a family great welcome, our two Yorkies enjoyed the treat from the owners, as l said food was marvelous. Highgate farm shop is worth a visit, only thing that disappoints is the car parking charge £3 for two hours more for longer at Keswick, that's rip off Britain for you. Booths is great supermarket on apar with waitrose. Its a bit of a treck from Troutbeck to get to Keswick so good planning is required to cut the journeys down. As the previous post wish they would get the flush sorted out on the toilets, l think they are set to save water, only fills half the cistern so you need to flush twice, can't think why of all the places in the country the lakes don't lack water. l believe the site is due for an overhaul this winter, be interesting to see how well the make over is. All in all though a gem of a site
