So we’re packed and ready to go on our first adventure!  We picked Windermere in the Lake District for our first adventure.  We found a lovely site called Park Cliffe about 10 minutes outside of Bowness.

I am going to give it 5 out of 5 because I have no frame of reference.  The pitches are great, plenty of space, lovely and level.  The facilities are really clean.  They have private bathrooms which can be hired for a £10 deposit which is great for bathing the little one.  The staff are really helpful and friendly.

There is an adventure playground which is perfect for kids around 2 – 11 I would say.  Our daughter is just a little bit young to appreciate it.  It has a bar, restaurant and shop.  The bar even did a quiz on the Saturday night but it was a bit late for us as the little one had crashed out from all the fresh air by that point!

We forgot a few things:

• Outside table
• Outside tarp to go on the floor for our daughter to crawl about on
• A few more outdoor toys to amuse the little one
• Oven gloves (doh!)

But all in all, we managed pretty well with what we had brought.  We have another trip away planned so we will add a few things and remove a few items we feel unnecessary and see how we go.
