Hi,

I think this site may take you? I have seen some big tents there, although we have only camped non-EHU in a small tent there. We have been twice, it's a nice site and you can book a private bathroom for a hour FOC (!), useful when you have kids...

They have a seperate EHU area and the tents in there were not small!

Please let me know how you get on as we are currently looking at buying a larger tent and upgrading to EHU. Good luck.

P.S. The picture on my profile was taken at Park Cliffe.

Thanks for the link Camper Jan.  I have just tried another site that a friend told me about it is called Limefit Park, Nr Windemere.  They have what they call Super size pitches with EHU.  I  have just rang for a brochure, i dont think they are listed on this site.  I'll let you know

I have read that Limefitt is an excellent choice also - one we might consider for this year, especially as the kids can swim in the river at the site (apparently)!

Hi

We too have the Aspen 700 and we had a much larger tent than that previously (Sunncamp Tourist 20XP).  There is a thread listing sites that accept large tents:  follow link

Hope this helps

Hi CAMPING MAD,

Glad to hear you've booked, myself & my OH are in the middle of deciding where we will go for our summer holidays as a couple, with the kids & at Easter plus a few bank holidays! I've heard Limefitt books up quickly so thinking about booking for 2 or 3 nights within the next few weeks, maybe Easter or August. How much per night is the super pitch in July & what does that include? I fancy having the space for the tent (Wynnster), maybe a pup tent plus a gazebo for shade too...

I agree, roll on Summer too, although I have just been discussing the benefits of EHU with my Aunty (a caravanner), so we can have heating to begin the season earlier & end later . Can't see us braving it yet though, especially with the extreme cold weather that is supposed to be coming our way according to the rumours .

Just in case anyone reading this thread needs it, the UKCS link for Limefitt Park, Windermere is:

hi,

we are first time campers and have just bought a sunncamp tourist 20xp (have had a trial run on the park today as too big for our garden!!)

just to let anyone interested know-we got a great offer of £290 (cheapest we can find it is £350 anywhere else) from Camperlands in Northenden , Manchester. I think he has one left in stock if anyone is interestted!!

Hi all

Oh and I have also been to park cliffe and have to say we didnt really like it... Limefitt was good but not too sure on the super pitches, they pack them in tight there though not much room for maneouvre .... have been to the croft in hawkshead thats really good, although not too sure on the ehu pitches.

Hope that helps .... enjoy it whatever you decide
