What about the Gower peninsular in Wales?

Very nice if you have not visited it before.

This in Norfolk, might be the same elsewhere.

Be quick, I've just had trouble booking two nights 17 to 19th July, fully booked on a lot of sites.

Some aren't taking tents, some insist that you bring a porta potty if they do take them.

some are only taking campers etc with onboard facilities.

Smaller sites seem to have toilets open, but are fully booked up.

I managed to get in at the Sandringham CC site, no facilities open at all.

Hope you get somewhere x

Check where you are allowed to wild-camp, I believe it is only certain parts of Scotland that are legal to do so.

I think in Scotland wild camping is by right, with a few exceptions for specific locations, but in England (and presumably Wales) it's prohibited without landowners permission and with some conditions imposed.

Lake District, it's permitted but only above the highest fell wall, which often puts you in a place where terrain was just too difficult to build a wall any higher up the fell! Long hard slog up a rough hillside to get to most of those permitted places I'd say, probably aimed more at the climbers and high fell walkers as a facility to their pastime than casual campers.

Hi There

If you wild camp..

Arrive late.
Leave early.
Leave no trace.

If you stay well away from paths and roads try and find a hidden spot it's bliss. Wild camped before myself and it very relaxing. Remember to take a few scented poo bags for your waste needs and take away with you.
