Located 8 miles from Lake Windermere, this Club Site is ideally situated for exploring the stunning beauty of the Lake District National Park.

Sit back and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of this campsite, surrounded by plentiful wildlife and beautiful views. Our spacious Windermere Club Site boasts a separate tent camping area, backpacker facility, a family camping area, and children’s play area.

After a busy day exploring the Lakes The Whistling Pig, the onsite bar is the perfect spot to sit back and enjoy a well earned drink.

Across the fields lies the village of Staveley, as well as a shop, supermarket, pubs and the famous Hawkshead Brewery. Take a walk from the campsite to Potters Fell or Reston Scar.

If you are looking to stay closer to the lake, the Club also has a site in the town of Bowness on Windermere.

Windermere offers plenty of water-based activities including cruises, canoeing and windsurfing. Take some time to visit local attractions such as the World of Beatrix Potter and Aquarium of the Lakes.

Hop aboard the chain ferry to the western side of the lake and visit the charming village of Hawkshead. Pay a visit to Claife Heights, a National Trust woodland great for walking, cycling and wildlife spotting.

At the southern tip of the lake, Fell Foot Park is perfect for picnics or a swim in the lake.

Please note:

This is a “split” meet, firstly at Devizes and then Salisbury (go to either or both!).

Devizes site:

Nestled in the heart of Wiltshire, our Devizes Club Site is a quiet secluded campsite by the Avon and Kennet Canal. 

Home to some of the world’s most significant prehistoric sites, including Stonehenge and Avebury Stone Circle, the Wiltshire countryside is ideal for avid walkers and cyclists.

This well-kept, tree-lined campsite provides a private feel. In addition to the amenity blocks, campers can expect a children’s play area, playing field and a large field for dogs.

From the campsite, walk or cycle into Devizes via the scenic Caen Hill flight of locks. Alternatively, take a 5-minute walk to the bus stop to catch a bus to Devizes, Melksham, Bath or Bristol.

With weekly markets and an 11th century Norman castle, Devizes is a bustling market town with a fascinating history. Take a tour through the brewing process at Wadworth Brewery, where Shire horses have delivered beer to local inns for over 125 years.

Situated by the canal, the Kennet and Avon Canal Trust Museum exhibits the fascinating story of this delightful waterway. Further afield, immerse yourself within 900 acres, among lions, tigers and monkeys at Longleat.

There are few better ways to explore the local countryside than by bicycle. Why not join the Avon Tow Path towards Bradford on Avon? Alternatively, hire a bike in Bradford-on-Avon and cycle into the beautiful city of Bath.

Salisbury site:

Situated in Hudson’s Fields, our Salisbury Club Site boasts views of Old Sarum, a mighty Iron Age hill fort including the remains of a prehistoric fortress, a Norman palace, a castle and a cathedral.

This sloping, spacious, site boasts excellent on-site facilities and is divided into two fields by hedging.

Pitch up at our Salisbury Club Site, where you’re ideally situated to explore some of Wiltshire’s best attractions. Described as the city in the countryside, Salisbury is a short riverside walk away. Justly famous for its cathedral, home to the iconic Magna Carta, this bustling market town boasts attractive timbered buildings, a thriving market, famous racecourse, museums and some of the most elegant historic houses in the country.

Arguably Britain’s most recognisable landmark, Stonehenge is located a short distance north of the campsite. Further north, Avebury Stone Circle is another, less crowded prehistoric site. Around 15 miles west of the site, Old Wardour Castle is a fascinating day out in the Wiltshire countryside.

Take a tour of Wilton House, located on the outskirts of Salisbury and set in 8 hectares of pristine grounds. There are plenty of fantastic family days out within easy reach of Salisbury Club Site, including Longleat, Paultons Park and Beaulieu and its National Motor Museum.
