Reviewer: Kennyboy2831 31 reviews from this member

Spent 5 nights at Riverside and the peace and quiet was absolutely fantastic. The wildlife on site is quite something if you enjoy this sort of thing. The toilet and shower facilities are very good even if they look like garden sheds don't let this put off they are very clean and the showers water was always nice and hot.
Being adults only for us was a great bonus not that we have anything against children (we have 8 grand children)but it just added to the peace. There are no shops in the village but if you drive to the next one you will find essentials there. One tiny criticism is that if you are a mobile phone fiend the signal is either none existent or quite poor unless you can find a hotspot. Would we return, the answer has to be an emphatic YES

We have just returned from a 3 night stay at this fantastic site.

I totally agree with the other reviews - Yes the dog walk is small but ideal for those early morning, last thing at night trips. The site is immaculate, the facilities clean, nice shower and perfect location away from the touristy area.

The Old Crown pub is about a mile away and does very nice food, good real ale and friendly company - dogs are welcome in the bar and for a trial period also in the small dining room.

The site is close to the Lakes, has good walks around, nearest shop is near the pub (about 1 mile) but this is closed on Sundays.

We had a great time and felt totally relaxed after our visit (would have stayed longer but for work commitments) and at £12 per night a total bargain.

This site is a gem, immaculately kept, set in gorgeous countryside on the fringe of the northern lake district but close enough to get into the hills for the energetic. The site is extremely well laid out with electrics and basic but perfectly adequate facilities to be found in garden sheds but don't let that put you off - they are exceptionally clean (unlike many other sites) and perfectly functional - they have a charm of their own!

We have rarely found the peace and quiet which exists here and will definitely be returning. The area is quiet but easily accessible fro Penrith, keswick and 'Carlisle. We're into walking and were heading up the hills within a 10 minute drive - keswick and the bigger hills a bit longer.

Part of me is reluctant to share this review as I would hate the site to get too difficult to get into, but it really is excellent and the owners, who really do seem to be customer focussed deserve the recognition for what we believe is one of the best sites in the country - bar none!
Definitely hoping to return soon. For those with children I'm afraid you'll have to wait as it is adults only - we used to be a bit put off by that but to be honest it is probably why we now like it, no footballs, bikes etc, frankly young children would probably get bored anyway. Am writing this review as we sit in the van on the Keswick site (having now got in) - the location remains gorgeous and proximity to the high fells closer, but all of a sudden this feels like industrial camping, impersonal, not so friendly and sadly not so clean! Riverside camp site absolutely strongly recommended.

Have been to this site twice now and have just booked to go again for the end of August (counting down the days). It is a lovely site set in peaceful countryside without the sound of screamingy kids. I would recommend this site to anyone who is looking for a quite time away in a lovely location. The owners should feel very proud of themselves for running such a lovely site.

This is how all sites should be !

Beautiful surroundings well cared for site no brats just total peace and quiet.

The site is divided into two, one half being the caravan clubs cl this has 11 pitches but only 5 are in use at any one time so you are not packed in like sardines.

Located about 3 miles from the lovely village of Caldbeck and within 15 miles to Carlisle,Penrith or Keswick at around £11 per night it just doesn't get much better than this.

We have just returned after a two week stay at the riverside touring park and were so delighted with our stay there. Such friendly hosts, dawn and john, nothing was too much trouble, and a beautifully kept site, toilet and shower facilities were spotlessly clean, (no piped music!) for those that can't live without it!
All you get is peace and quiet, a little babble from the beck! a few baaaaa's from the surrounding fields, full of sheep, & lambs, one of the friendliest sites I have ever visited.
Will definitely be going back there.
