About Stithians Lake Campsite

Wrapped around the shores of 275-acre Stithians Lake, this family-friendly campsite places water-based adventure front and centre. Qualified instructors at the on-site Outdoor Active centre offer windsurfing, sailing, kayaking, wing foiling and efoiling—bring your own kit or hire theirs. Fly fishers can cast from boat or bank for sizeable brown and rainbow trout (rod licences required for over-12s). Beyond the water, there's a pirate-themed playground, lakeside walking trails, a bird hide, and plenty of open space for picnics and games.

Individual washrooms with toilet, shower and sink sit a short walk from the pitches, plus extra facilities at the watersports centre. An on-site café tackles post-activity hunger, while the Golden Lion pub is just 100 yards away for homemade specials. Facilities can feel a little remote from some pitches, but the sheer variety of activities and the spectacular lake setting more than compensate. Stithians village is close by for supplies.

Brilliant campsite in a great location, could do with another cut through or walkway to the showers, I may have had to jump the fence after needing the door code on my phone locked in my car! Lovely and quiet but was not even half full. Easy access. I can't comment on how the site is by day as I was working nearby during business hours. Great price for a decent pitch too

I had an a amazing wing foil lessons here. The centre is really well set up with good changing rooms and showers, a great cafe for when you need to refuel and so much choice of equipment. The lesson was excellent, with the right amount of theory, and lots of time to.put it all into practice. Safety was well demonstrated throughout the session and Finn, my instructor was really knowledgeable and patient (I wasn't a natural but managed to do the turns and travel with the wind thanks to Finn 😄)

I went to Stithians last week for an beginner Wing foil lesson. I'd heard of Stithians before but never been - what an absolutely brilliant place !! Fantastic location - campsite right next door which I'll visit on my return - cafe on site. The staff couldn't have been more helpful - Frankie was a brilliant instructor and gave me lots of useful tips and hints to get me up on the foil a couple of times. The gear is all brand new and first class and I would recommend this to anyone wanting to give wingfoiling (or any of their other sports) a go.

What a fantastic set up! Great spot and facilities, friendly welcome and very good value- will visit again and bring the family next time as so well set up! Came for wing foiling, would be fun for other water sports too.
