Welcome to
Ullswater Holiday Park
Family owned Lake District accommodation since 1958.
At the Ullswater Holiday Park, we specialise in a friendly welcome, practical family facilities and a range of accommodation to suit all needs. Our family has been here since 1958 and our park has plenty of space combining a sheltered position beneath Cumbrian fells with excellent access to the nearby shores and waters of Ullswater.
Whether you are planning a relaxing holiday or an adventure packed one, our park is the perfect base to do so. Situated just one mile up from the Lake our Park is an ideal place to bring the children and their inflatables for a fun filled holiday on the Lake. Or if you prefer hiking and walking, the Ullswater way goes straight through the middle of our Park meaning you can easily walk to Aira force or Pooley Bridge.
The Park backs on to the fells, with Little Mell Fell and Great Mell Fell behind us and the High Street Ridge and Howtown across the lake. These fells offer walkers plenty of choice, from strenuous climbs to lakeside rambles, and Wainwright’s Northern and Eastern Fells are just a short drive away.
There are also plenty of facilities locally for adventures such as horse riding, GPS navigation training and quad bike trekking as well as gentler pursuits like golf, tennis and bowls.
