Tipis and bell tents at Wasdale Campsite

For an alternative camping adventure, get comfy in a spacious bell tent or a tipi equipped with a wood-burning stove that can turn a cold night into a cosy, snug experience.
What's inside the tipis?
The tipis have a double bed and two single futons with mattress covers. (the futons are being replaced with fold out mattresses similar to those seen in the pods, this may happen prior to your booking) Each one contains a woodburning stove with a starter pack of eco logs, some lighting, table, and chairs. You'll find a full inventory at the bottom of this page.
What do we need to bring?
Think of a tipi as a replacement for your tent. You'll need to bring bedding and towels. There will be a camping stove and some basic cooking utensils including pots and pans etc. We recommend you bring some extra lighting for your stay and extra blankets as it can be chilly at night. A wind-up lantern or extra torch would be ideal. Please see the inventory.

The tipis can accommodate up to 3 adults or for families of up to 2 adults and 2 children.
