    Overview

    Camp by the coast and near the mountains with Ravenglass Camping and Caravanning Club Site.

    • Lovely location just 500m from the seafront
    • Mountain views over the western Lake District
    • Set in six acres of mature woodland
    • The iconic Scafell Pike is just a short drive away
    • Facility block refurbished in 2024
    • “Just so peaceful with miles of walking available.” Gordon Monk


    Best for

    Tranquillity seekers, walkers, sunset chasers, great outdoor lovers, couples

     

    If camping to you means losing yourself in the great outdoors, then you may struggle to find a site that offers as much variety as Ravenglass Club Site. Situated in six acres of lush, mature woodland, this site is also just 500m from the coast, and within a stone’s throw of some of the Lake District’s most impressive mountains.


    Refurbished and rural

    This peaceful and secluded campsite is the perfect place to get away from it all and caters for all unit types. Tent campers will love the tree-lined camping field. The campsite was renovated in 2024 and has a refurbished toilet block, dedicated accessible and family rooms, and a motorhome service point. It’s also within walking distance of pubs in Ravenglass village.


    Sunsets and scenery

    Also in the village is the La’al Ratty Ravenglass and Eskdale Railway – a scenic seven-mile saunter through the jaw-dropping Eskdale Valley. It’s a great way to see mountains up close if you’re not feeling energetic enough to hike them. If you are, then perhaps England’s highest peak Scafell Pike can interest you? It’s a challenging hike, but several start points are close to the site. Away from the mountains, head down to the seafront and watch the sunset on the beautiful sandy shores of Drigg Beach.

     

    Hike the mountains in the morning, wander the woods in the afternoon, and chill by the beach in the evening – booking a pitch at Ravenglass Club Site allows you to do all three.

    Local area

    Muncaster Castle

    Commanding lower Esksdale from its vantage point above the Ravenglass estuary, Muncaster Castle has been a family home for over nine centuries. Offering stunning views, fascinating history and spooky mythology, this castle is a fantastic day out for the family.

    Scafell Mountain Range

    Often nicknamed the “Southern Fells”, the Scafell Mountain Range features eight individual peaks including the tallest mountain in England, Scafell Pike. Rising an imposing 978 metres above sea level, the peak is a popular, bucket-list destination for the hikers.

    Ennerdale Water

    Surrounded by some of the Lake District’s most recognisable fells such as Great Gable, Ennerdale Water is a glacial lake and is one of the smallest and least disturbed in Cumbria. One of the Lake District’s hidden gems; this small stretch of water is only 1 mile wide and 2.5 miles long.

    Coniston Water

    One of the Lake District’s most popular mountains, the Old Man of Coniston, looms over Coniston Water. Hire a boat and take it out on the water, or rent a bike and follow the trail around the lakeside.
