“ Liked: The location was beautiful and about an hour or so to pretty much everywhere in The District via the fun windy lanes but sone amazing local stuff too and bustling Windermere only up the road. Tent was huge, we took our own battery powered fairy lights which lit it up a treat. The communal area was well equipped although we took our own gas job and disposable BBQ but the shower was super nice and hot too! Loads of logs and branches around for kindling, had a lot of fun cooking over the fire pit. Compost loos were great too and very clean. Whole site is very well thought-out and kept well. Saw a deer one eve near the tent and lots of other wildlife. A really lovely romantic getaway.

Glamping

Lake District wildlife glamping in Rusland.

This campsite is quite special.
Sorry no children or dogs.

What to do and why to glamp at Rusland. Your bell tent will be within 20 minutes of the Rusland national nature reserve.

The campsite is on 15 acres of land which has been rewilded for 18 years, no sheep or cattle. The wildflower meadows were seeded with native wildflower mixes and are grazed by the resident roe deer and the migratory red deer from the reserve.

I farm grasshoppers and bees and damsel flies

The stone circle is at an intersection of lay lines and is a neolithic calendar denoting the mid summer moon and the mid winter sun. It is home to spiritual festivals which have attracted a worldwide following.

within walking distance there are views looking down to Coniston water, wild swimming at high dam, the nature reserve and eateries at the Manor at Oxon Park and the Eagles Head at Satterthwaite.

You need to book.:

Here there is a hot shower so shower together because you have five minutes of 38° centigrade every 35 minutes. Sanitiser is provided and there is an outside cold shower.

Also on sites there are three composting loos. Colour-coded and dedicated to each tent. A composting loo works best when kept dry, sawdust is available to finish the job. For the sake of privacy a black bucket is provided for each tent to use for the midnight P*e, so bucket and chuck it well away from your tents and the orchids. A compost bin is on site, and a food waste bin, but take bottles and tins and other rubbish home.

When it’s time to go home leave your wheelbarrow at your colour-coded parking lot and have a safe journey. Please remember, missing items from your tents will be charged to your card
