About this campsite

Side Farm sits at the foot of Place Fell, right where the Ullswater Way footpath passes below Patterdale, with the Helvellyn range filling the skyline across the water. It's a proper first-come, first-served farm site - no advance bookings, you simply turn up, pitch on the open grass, and pay at the farm tea room, which is handy for scones after a day on the fells or a trip on the Ullswater steamers. Facilities are simple but well kept, with hot showers, a laundry room and a separate pot-wash area, and the site is as popular with parties walking the Coast to Coast route as with families on a lakeside holiday. Dogs are welcome, and it gets busy on bank holiday weekends, so arriving early in high season pays off.
