You’ll never regret moments like these. 💙

Ullswater is only around 30 minutes from our campsite, with a National Trust car park right opposite the lake. Pack the paddleboard, a picnic and the kids and you’ve got yourself a pretty perfect Lake District day. 🏄‍♀️☀️⛰️

And the best bit? You can escape to the Lakes without actually having to stay amongst all the Lake District crowds.

Lots more ideas like this for days out when you stay with us. 🙌

Apparently, half the things you can do at our campsite would get you BANNED from other campsites… 😂⛺️🔥🍻

And judging by how viral that reel went, it turns out there are quite a few of you looking for exactly that kind of camping 👀

So, let us introduce you to our GROUP CAMPING FIELD 🙌

A whole field for you and your lot. No strangers pitched three feet away. No worrying that the kids are being too loud. No death stares because someone’s cracked open a beer before lunchtime. 😂

Just your favourite people, tents, kids, dogs, campfires, BBQs, music, drinks, laughs and the kind of weekend where everyone goes home absolutely knackered but already planning the next one. ❤️

🔥 Real campfires
🐶 Dogs welcome
⚽ Loads of space for the kids
🍻 Café & bar on site
🍕 Pizza available
🚶 Walk into Dalston
🌊 River adventures nearby
⛺️ Your OWN group camping field

Perfect for big family get-togethers, birthdays, groups of mates, annual camping weekends or just getting everyone together somewhere you can actually RELAX.

And a little warning…

2027 group dates are already filling up FAST. 😳

So if the group chat has been saying “we definitely need to do a camping weekend next year” for the last six months…

THIS IS YOUR SIGN. 😂

Get the date agreed. Get it booked. Then you’ve got approximately 10 months to argue about who’s bringing what.

Thursday night was a bit different around here!
We hosted a party for the GCSE results and played for us 👏
I’m seriously considering getting them back for next season to play for you all!
Same great vibe and live music but without as many drunken teenagers 😂

📚 GCSE RESULTS DAY 📚

The picture is me, probably just before, or during, my GCSEs.

My revision schedule looked NOTHING like the one my son has endured. 😂

The night before my German GCSE, I was in the local nightclub until 6am. I staggered to my mate’s, slept on the floor for a couple of hours, then rolled into my exam.

Needless to say, I did NOT pass German. 😂 I still can’t confidently say “Where is the toilet, please?” so I’m not sure revision would have saved me. 🤣

Somehow, I passed everything else.

What followed was a few years of absolute carnage. No direction, no clue what I wanted to do. I worked in pubs, customer care, old people’s homes, reception, stables. You name it, I did it.

At the time, it looked like I was failing. No career, no obvious path, just muddling through.

But those messy years taught me valuable skills. I learned to deal with people and difficult situations, work hard, adapt, problem solve and pick myself up when things didn’t work.

Those skills helped me grow the businesses I have today.

What looked like failure was actually lessons being learned. I just didn’t know it yet.

One piece of paper at 16 can feel like it determines your future.

It doesn’t.

Today’s results don’t define your child, and they don’t define you as a parent.

Some kids will smash it. Others will be disappointed despite working their arses off.

Some know what comes next. Others won’t have a clue.

GCSEs can open doors, but they don’t measure intelligence, kindness, resilience, humour, creativity or the person somebody will become.

At 16, I hadn’t got a fu***ng clue. Some days I’m still winging it. 😂

Life is rarely a straight line. Sometimes the detours and mistakes are where you learn the most.

So celebrate today, whatever that piece of paper says.

If it isn’t what you hoped for, remember there’s more than one route through life.

Something that feels like failure today might be a lesson you’ll be bloody grateful for one day. ❤️

Good luck to every kid collecting their results, and every parent pretending they’re not absolutely sh****ng themselves. 😂❤️
