Nestled in the picturesque Lake District, Kestrel Lodge Campsite provided a serene escape. The host was incredibly helpful, offering valuable recommendations for local attractions and was very friendly. The yurt was well-maintained and equipped with basic amenities, including cooking facilities and an optional electric hook-up. The solar-powered lights provided sufficient illumination, making the electric hook-up a potentially unnecessary expense for those solely concerned with charging devices. While we didn't have the opportunity to hike up Skiddaw due to unfavourable weather, the campsite's location offered easy access to this peak for those seeking a more of an adventure. Overall, Kestrel Lodge Campsite provided a comfortable and enjoyable stay in the Lake District, with plenty of opportunities for outdoor exploration.

We had a lovely bank holiday weekend in our yurt at Kestrel Lodge site as a family of 5. The site is in a really peaceful location with easy access to walks including waterfalls and skiddaw, as well as a pub! There is a little shop on site open in morning and early evening which was great for stocking up on wood for the fire pit. Keswick itself is only a short drive away for supermarket. The toilets and showers were always clean and there were enough of them for the site. The staff we met were really friendly. The yurt was simply furnished, beds were cosy and everything we needed for our stay was there.
Great stay!
