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.

Campsite has excellent facilities and is very well maintained. Stayed in a dog friendly camping pod. Easy walk to Pooley Bridge which has great cafes and pubs, favourite being Granny Dowbekins which is dog friendly and caters for my wife who is vegan. Recommend getting ferry to Howtown where there's a friendly cafe and great walking along the lake to Glenridding, we did a circular walk back along the lanes and bridleways as our dog is getting too old for the lake walk now. Aira Force Waterfalls NT also worth a visit as is a circular walk from Pooley Bridge to Dalemain House which has a cafe and Dacre which has a lovely pub.

We booked a last minute stay here for one night and honestly just expected somewhere to rest our heads but it was absolutely gorgeous and we didnt want to leave the next day. The park itself is huge with plenty of accommodation options and space, it is EXCEPTIONALLY well maintained with fantastic facilities! We stayed in a camping pod and had to use the shared toilets/showers and they were spotlessly clean and comfortable! Whole stay was just gorgeous, park was quiet, everything needed was on site or nearby.. just amazing! We will be back very soon and hopefully for much longer next time. Thank you :)

Staff are on hand all day and nothing is a bother, they are really friendly and helpful. The whole place is nipping clean, toilets and showers are cleaned regularly throughout the day and it's always lovely and warm in there. Plenty toilets and showers to accommodate all guests. Pods are ideal when the weather isn't too good and are reasonably priced. There is a shop and a food van on site serving breakfast, pizza and fish and chips on certain days. Overall this site is well worth a visit in a great location to explore the lakes and only 5/10 minute walk from 3 pubs which serve good food and drinks. Look forward to my next visit.

"2 night stay in dog friendly pod"

Mrs L Davies - Stayed with family, Apr 2023

We have never booked a dog friendly pod anywhere before (the dog belongs to my daughter) We couldn't fault it, the pod was very clean and fresh smelling. Added bonus of railed decking with a gate, so we could sit out and the dog couldn't stray. Toilet and shower facilities were adjacent to the Pod and were excellent and cleaned regularly. Daughter and granddaughter used the games room adjacent to the Pod. Although we didn't use them you can buy a cooked breakfast, fish and chips and pizza on certain days and at certain times. Short walk down to pooley bridge from Hillcroft and to Ullswater Lake. Dog friendly pubs in pooley bridge with good food and a selection of small shops. A very enjoyable couple of days holiday.

My self and my family have stayed at hilcroft 4 times now and it never falters. We usually stay in a lodge which are home from home . We booked a last minute night in a camping pod last week and it was fantastic, lovely decking area and plenty of space for us all. The washroom facilities were amazing . Absolutely spotless and the staff are always on hand and come for a chat. There was the chippy van on site too which is perfect , and the breakfast grill open from 9am. We honestly wouldn't stay anywhere else. We've booked for the glamping pod for 3 nights in June and can't wait.
