Campsite needed
« on: 10 May 2009, 17:40:48 »

I am after a campsite that meets the following criteria:

1) Accepts Dogs

2) Has a nice pub (not your weatherspoon rubbish) within a 2 mile raduis - which also welcomes dogs.

3) Has showers and basic facilities onsite

4) Is in a nice part of the UK/Wales/Scotland (location unimportant, as long as scenic)

5) Allows small, contained campfires.


Suggestions or recommendations very welcome  :y

I love the Lake District personally and although never visiting this camp site myself, I favour cottage breaks, this one comes highly recommended.  check it out or others nearby. The scenery is simply stunning!

A person needs only three tools: WD-40, duct tape and a hammer. If it doesn't move and it should, use the WD-40. If it moves and it shouldn't, use the duct tape. If either doesn't work use the hammer

Kipford Caravan Site, on the Firth of Solway.

Its a great site and allows dogs. Local pub is just under a mile walk which gets you ready for your first pint and always accepts dogs (been taking ours in for years).

Only thing is not sure about open fire. I know they will allow bbq but not sure on the open fire. Lovely woods nearby where u can disapear for hours without seeing a person (great for couples  ::) or familys  ;D).
