Accepted 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.

Hillcroft really is the perfect site which is why we return year after year! Friendly staff, clean and tidy site and the toilet/shower facilities are truly the best we’ve experienced in our many years of camping - spotlessly clean and spacious. Can’t recommend enough!

We enjoyed our two night stay in a camping pod at Hillcroft. The pod was clean and warm with the installed heater. The washing and toilet facilities were very clean, modern and close to the camping pods. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. The site is located within a short walking distance to Pooley Bridge which is a great place to eat and drink. Lovely views and thankfully we had great weather! Thank you Hillcroft for a very pleasant visit.

Clean camping pod, toilets and showers were immaculate, lots of hot water, the only thing I would say is that I wish there were more things to do on site, maybe a bar/restaurant and some activities, shop opening times are quite restrictive and it’s not always open when it is supposed to be

Perfect bank holiday stay

We booked very last minute and pod 13 was the last one available. We managed to fit 5 airbeds in comfortably with some space left over. Each pod had a picnic bench which was very handy. The whole site was clean and tidy and the Shower/toilet block was spotless. Kids enjoyed the little arcade area too. Would highly recommend to others.

We return to Hillcroft Park each year, the site is clean has lots of amenities such as a games room, vending machine for the things you forgot and lots of choices of accommodation. The site is perfect for families as it has a lovely park and is extremely dog friendly. The shop on site is well stocked I was like staff are friendly and helpful. The Local area of Pooley Bridge is a short walk away and have some lovely pubs and local shops. While staying at Hillcroft we also did water activities with Lakeland Ascents who were great.

We stayed in a camping pod for two night with our 5 year old, to see how he would like camping. We absolutely loved it. So much so we know which plot we’d like to stay at next year. We will be back

Camping or glamping

Upon arrival the front of business reception ladies were welcoming and informative . The camping pod was clean and ideally located for shower block etc . The view over Ullswater was breathtaking . Shower block and toilets were very clean at all times and well equipped. If I was to ask for anything on the site it would be somewhere to sit and have a drink or snack and while away the evening .Overall the site is of high standard .
