Welcome Gillside Caravan and Camping,
Gillside,
is sited in an idyllic location for the perfect Camping and Caravaning
holiday. A Lakeland farm that has been worked by the Lightfoot family
for over 60 years. A site where you can easily view some of the
work of a traditional Lakeland farm.
Clinging to the side of one of the most scenic of lakeland dales,
the reaches of Ullswater, are viewed spread below and along the
valley. The nearby track that leads fell walkers to that magical
and mighty summit Helvellyn, passes by the entrance to the farm.
