The camping pods at Hillcroft Park are the perfect location for staying near Lake Ullswater in the Lake District. Owned and operated by the Heath Family, the award-winning Hillcroft Park sits above the pretty lakeside village of Pooley Bridge.

Hillcroft Park boasts one of the most stunning locations of any UK holiday park and you are sure to have an unforgettable holiday here.

Designed to meet the needs of holiday makers who appreciate the peace and tranquillity found in this part of the world, Hillcroft Park provides an ever-changing landscape that is simply breathtaking throughout the year.

Camping Pods are suitable for couples or families of up to 2 adults and 3 Children. They are equipped with a light, heater and are carpeted, however, you are required to bring your own bedding (i.e. air beds, pillows, sleeping bags, blankets, etc.) and other accessories as you would if you were camping. Think of it as going camping, but we provide you with a camping pod rather than a tent.

We love what we do and work hard to go that extra mile for our guests. Providing the best facilities with a personal touch, we’ve an onsite shop that sells a good range of local produce and everyday staples plus a play area with outdoor table tennis and football tables. There is a dedicated laundry room and a drying room.

We are lucky enough to be located in the beautiful Ullswater Valley and there are a multitude of walks for all levels and abilities in the area. A recent addition to the list is the Ullswater Way – a 20 mile circular walking route around the lake. The route can be walked in either direction and from any starting point.

"Fabulous"

Mrs E Cooper - Stayed with partner, Aug 2023

This is our 3rd stay at Hillcroft and it continues to have very high standards of customer care. The toilet/shower block is spotlessly clean, in fact, the whole site is maintained to a very high standard. We have already booked for next year!

"Very impressive holiday park!"

Mrs A Maddock - Stayed with family, Aug 2023

Location of Hillcroft was perfect, plenty to do nearby, walking distance to the village with plenty of pubs and places to eat. The cleanliness of the toilets and showering facilities were the best I’ve ever seen. I would recommend Hillcroft to everyone as I was so...

I returned home and booked the next day for May half term holidays next year.

"Great base for days out"

Mrs B Plumpton - Stayed with family, Aug 2023

We always chose Hilcroft when in Pooley Bridge, staff are great when you need them. Pooley bridge is a great little town. We spent one day paddleboarding on Ulswater near Aira Force. We spent another on the walking trails of whinlatter. Took the ferry to Glenridding... We always chose Hilcroft when in Pooley Bridge, staff are great when you need them. Pooley bridge is a great little town. We spent one day paddleboarding on Ulswater near Aira Force. We spent another on the walking trails of whinlatter. Took the ferry to Glenridding and sampled lots of food in the town. The toilet block on site is always as clean as can be. The dog wash is brilliant. Well kept gardens and surroundings. The breakfast truck is also fab.

"Back to basics needed, but my heart will always be with Hillcroft 28 years and still love going..."

I've been going to Hillcroft for 28 years, I started as a couple and literally brought my children as babies! We've seen all the changes throughout.The vibe is different, the rules of camping are certainly non existent.Basic respect, to fellow campers and glampers.Once upon a time, the rule of thumb was space, give respect, do not overtake over parties holidays/space.What we call field two, mainly glamping pods and several pods and tents.On the field in front of the pods, 4 large family tents, combined with a pod family and families from field three.All played rounders, football etc. Up until after 10pm balls hitting cars without a care, footballs landing in the pod seating area whilst people were eating, drinking, playing boardgames, and relaxing.One family left early. Once upon a time staff would be present all night, enforce no ball games rule with bypasses in the cart every 15/20 mins. Toilets became a playarea for water pistols! I hope HC make changes because we love it here.

"Great park!"

Miss F Humphreys - Stayed with family, Jul 2023

The park was well maintained and had wonderful showers/toilets which were so clean. All the staff were very friendly. All the facilities you could ask for. Our camping pod was on the side of a camping field and although there were signs everywhere asking people only... The park was well maintained and had wonderful showers/toilets which were so clean. All the staff were very friendly. All the facilities you could ask for. Our camping pod was on the side of a camping field and although there were signs everywhere asking people only to play ball games on the recreational field, which was further down, all the tents and other people staying in the pods ignored this and played in the middle. Our pod had footballs being kicked against it and music being played up till the cut off time of 11pm. With three small children, this wasn’t ideal and we didn’t complete our full stay. Absolutely nothing to do with the park itself, and we will be back to stay in a lodge or caravan next time!
