Lake District National Park Recommendations?
Posted: Thu May 26, 2005 12:37 PM UTC
Any recommendations for the Lake District? Preferably easy to get to from London, scenic, and with a good camping ground.

If you're driving up from London, then try Keswick as a base (M6 junction 40, then A66 west; or A1 to Scotch Corner, then A66 west). There is excellent camping at Braithwaite, just a couple of miles west of Keswick.

Keswick is a great base for the northern half of the Lake District and is very scenic!

Try Side Farm at Patterdale. It's at the head of Ullswater with a great pub a short walk away. It got voted one of the UK's top campsites recently.
