Derwentwater is a lovely, quiet sister Site for Keswick. - Jo Saint
What's on?
- The town of Keswick is a two-minute walk
from the Site. There are many good cafés
and restaurants, a supermarket and some
excellent outdoor-wear shops.
- Take the Keswick Launch around
Derwentwater. Discounted tickets are
available from Site reception.
- Trotters World of Animals is ideal for
children. It has lemurs, wallabies and
gibbons among its collection.
- The Cumberland Pencil Museum tells the
story of graphite – which was first
discovered near Keswick.
- Castlerigg stone circle is one of the finest in Cumbria. Over 5,000 years old, it includes 38 stones in a variety of shapes.
- Rheged, named after Cumbria’s Celtic
Kingdom, includes many attractions. See the
international mountaineering exhibition and
watch a giant movie.
- Keswick hosts many events during the year. The Jazz Festival is held in May, the Real Ale Festival in June and Keswick Convention and Bible Weeks in July and August.
- Unfortunately, tents cannot be
accommodated on this Site. Tent campers
are welcome at the Keswick Club Site, next
door.
Those who love the area can buy a
permanent caravan holiday-home on Site. - On arrival, please book in at The Oval Reception which is a little further down the lane.
