About Us
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. Camping in Ullswater has never been so good.

Renewable Energy
Solar Panels
The Lake District of 2050 will probably feel very different from today. As climate change takes hold, weather patterns will alter and extreme events will become more common. The coastline will change, as will conditions for all wildlife.
But the changes we need to make to move to a low-carbon Lake District will bring additional benefits to our communities and visitors.
As we move forward in the coming years we hope to reduce our energy usage and greenhouse gases. With the help of the European Regional Development Fund we have been able to install our first block of Solar Panels on one of our agricultural buildings to help reduce the energy used to heat and power the park.
