The camping pods at Hillcroft Park are the perfect location for glamping 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 glamping 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 3 adults and 2 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 glamping 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.

Downside I personally think the family camping pods were quite pricey for what you pay for. Your paying quite abit money for a empty shell which your hardly in anyways. The park is pretty basic and children get bored after a few minutes. The site is obviously up a hill which means alot of walking to get to places nearby and lastly the shop could have a wider range of products and not be so over priced. Keep your prices right people will always come back e.g charging almost £45 for a family a night to sleep on grass is crazy money.

Stayed here multiple times and a family favourite. The facilities are first class, the staff are very helpful, and the location is walking distance to the village as well as footpath straight onto the fells!

The only but is that maybe the website wasn’t very clear enough for us… I thought I booked the glamping hut instead of the camping one.

The toilet and shower facilities are the best we have ever used. Really clean and modern. Hot and powerful showers with ample space to get dried. Only downside was there is one washroom and due to Covid can't use sinks to brush teeth. Location is brilliant easy to walk to Pooley Bridge. Definitely recommend and we will return.

I stayed the weekend in a pod at Hillcroft, what a lovely and well run site. When I booked it, the website said that I needed to bring bedding. To be more accurate, it should have said I needed to bring a bed! And a chair & a kettle etc etc! Annoyingly, because I do go camping, I had all this stuff readily to hand at home! Anyway, my back is fine now thanks!! Seriously though, great campsite, wonderful location etc (just take an air bed!)
