PSSSS!!!!

PSSSS, Yeh you come over here,
As its such a special occasion i will give you the perfect heads up on my most favorite campsite in the world

Its at Wasdale in the lakes and we have stayed their a few times over the years now and it is amazing. The site is a national trust site and overlooks the lake and serves as a gateway to some of the best walks in the lakes. I think it is about £8 per night per van and trust me you wont be disappointed.
This is the first time we went
And this is on our way up to Scotland early this year
hope you try it out as i know you will remember it forever

if you get over to the west , more Eskdale than the Lakes . Nice site called Fisherground, used to be able to have campfires. Well located if you fancy taking your van over Hardknott pass

First, congratulations!
Now, I stayed at a place called Park Foot camp site. It's half a mile from Lake Ullswater and Pooley Bridge. It's a bit expensive but a nice site. Nice walk up Barton Fell (think that's what it's called).Google Park Foot for details. You will also be only about 15 miles from Carlisle.
