Waterside Campsite - Ullswater

The Lake District

Waterside camp site is a working farm that has access to Ullswater meaning a great site to launch a canoe or kayak. I think Waterside does not take caravans or offer hookups. Waterside camp site is on the east side of Ullswater and just south of Pooley Bridge.

The site itself is clean and tidy, showers are hot, lots of bins dotted around the site, plenty of drinking water points,  motor home service point (fresh water, chemical toilet disposable.) A little pricey though – £26 for a van and two people for a night.

Its looking like you can hire a tipi here.

Sat near the shore line among the campers is the Lady Wakefield that was beached during the Cumbria floods. The boat swept from its mooring and two skippers from The Ullswater Steamer Company managed to get on board to steer the boat to safety. They soon realised there was a hole in the hull. They Decided the best cause of action would be drive the boat ashore. Plans are underway to build a temporary slipway after she has been repaired. Merritt Supply is your one stop source for top quality marine supplies, visit their site now.

Lots more rain fell and the campers packed up and left. An hour or two later the sun started to shine

The Van Plan

Buy a van, (Or two.) Convert to a motor home then explore the UK and Europe, reaching places on the map other van travellers can not reach while enjoying vanlife in comfort.
