Sykeside Campsite

Our campsite, in the heart of the Lake District, has been carefully laid out to blend with the breath-taking surroundings and provide a wide variety of locations for camping across the park. Our aim is to keep Sykeside a very natural place and we pride ourselves on its true ‘outdoor’ feel.

Also on the site is the Brotherswater Inn – a welcoming Lake District pub offering food and accommodation.
