C & CC site keswick Forums

There are two sites next to each other both C&CC sites (dont ask which is which) One is an overflow for peak season & staffed by volunteer

We stayed twice at the CC site near Grange in Borrowdale (down the other end of the lake)
First time we were in a CARAVAN & were treated OK given a good pitch

Second time (last year) we were in a MH & given a pitch exactly the same length & width of our van. We asked for a different pitch Only to be told that is the one we want you to have We keep the others for CARAVANS they NEED LEVEL sites
RThe site we were given appart from being too tight to get onto straight was over hung by trees & no room to put up a pup tent never mind an awning

Blooming cheek, it's a darn sight harder to level up a motorhome than it is a caravan.

We tried to book with friends for a week on the Keswick site last year in the October half term but there was not enough room for all 3 units so we all went to the Kendal site instead. It was more basic, but also cheaper, & suited us fine.

Hi ya Ken . . . . bums . . . we just missed we were there 19th / 21st. loved being so close to the river watching the narrow boats motor up and down, and of course the fishing. When talking to the managing warden (directs you to your pitch on a bike and has a bit of a lisp) he reckoned the site wasn't very friendly but we found it quite nice. He recommended Churtsey as a good place for Christmas. Ya'll stay lucky, Jeffus. Cool
