The old Post Office Campsite
The old Post Office Campsite
The Old Post Office Campsite sits beside the River Irt in the quiet village of Santon Bridge, on the western fringe of the Lake District National Park in Cumbria.
Family-run since 1951, it welcomes tents, touring caravans, and motorhomes on a mix of hardstanding pitches with electric hook-ups and level grass pitches, several of which enjoy direct waterside views.
The River Irt, known for its salmon and brown trout, borders the site and guests can fish or wild swim from its banks.
A pub is just across the bridge, while Wast Water, Wasdale, and Drigg Beach are within a ten-minute drive, and Scafell Pike roughly twenty minutes away.
