- Stunning location in the Borrowdale Valley, Lake District National Park

- Numerous scenic and challenging cycling routes nearby, on and off-road
- Local bus service allows exploring further afield without a car
Seathwaite Farm Campsite sits in a truly stunning spot just off the southern end of the Borrowdale Valley, south of Keswick in the Lake District National Park. The large camping field welcomes both tents and motorhomes, with an on-site shower and toilet block plus newly installed Eco-toilets. Seathwaite is almost central to the north-western, central, southern and western Cumbrian Fells, making it a perfect base for walkers heading to the Scafells, Great Gables and many other well-trodden routes, as well as cyclists seeking scenic on- and off-road rides. A regular local bus service runs from the end of the lane if you fancy exploring further afield, while Puzzling Place, The Retro Zone and Dove Cottage are all within a few miles for a change of pace.
