Cove Park Camping & Caravan Site- Watermillock, Ullswater

OS Grid Reference GR431235

Cove Park is a small and peaceful caravan and camping park, with wonderful views across Ullswater in the Lake District. We are sheltered by trees and the Cumbrian fells, with a backdrop of Barton Fell and High Street. Ullswater is widely regarded as one of the most beautiful Lakes.

We are superbly situated for all Lakeland activities and all of the Northern Lakes attractions. If you are looking for somewhere as a base for walking or touring, or a place to rest and relax, Cove Park is the perfect location for you.

The park is very well maintained, and we are very proud of our Awards and Tourist Board ratings. These are given out annually, so our hard work carries on all season, to maintain the highest standards.

The camping park offers sheltered grassy pitches, all conveniently situated very close to the amenities block.

Cove is a small quiet park, offering a superb location for walkers, climbers and everyone who wishes to enjoy all of the activities that the Lake District has to offer; or just to come and rest and relax in the peaceful surroundings.

Electric hook ups are available.
