About Cove Caravan & Camping Park

Cove Caravan & Camping Park sits in Watermillock, a village in the northern reaches of the Lake District between Penrith and Ullswater. The setting is rural Cumbrian countryside, within reach of the lakes and fells that define the region. The park itself offers pitches for caravans and camping, with showers on site for guests to use.

The location puts you close enough to explore Ullswater and the surrounding valleys on foot or by car, making it useful for anyone touring the quieter end of the Lake District rather than the busier central valleys.

Fae Charlotte Church

Lovely campsite available to us last minute as we wanted to extend our holiday, thankfully Brian and Michelle were able to accommodate some space for us. What a view from this campsite! Never thought I'd say wow when stepping out of a toilet block at 6am 😄 Site is open, spacious, clean and clearly well looked after. Toilets and shower block, though not modern, were perfect and very clean. Have the whole of the lake district on your doorstep. Thanks again, would love to come back, from Fae, Aaron, Sophie and Reuben.

Buying a static caravan on this site was a very good decision. It is very well managed, secluded, friendly and peaceful. The recent addition of reliable WiFi is the finishing touch.

Currently here for a 4 night stay and can’t fault the place! First trip away as touring caravan owners. The wardens on this site were a huge help from reversing onto the pitch to helping set everything up. Toilets and showers kept clean. Large secure field for dog walks. Excellent sized pitches and all around peaceful friendly atmosphere. Bonus to be able to use the facilities of the quiet site which is less than 2 minute walk away with an excellent bar and food hatch (stone baked pizzas were amazing)! Thanks for all your help in making our first trip away goes as smoothly as possible! We will definitely be returning to this site.

Love this place. Clean, not over crowded fab wardens. I try to go as much as I can even in bad weather so bring on the good weather it will be my second home. It is so peaceful and it is my sanctuary and coming up straight after work is the best feeling ever Thank you Brian & Nichelle
