I'm looking to be visiting the lake District for a few days, with my wife, who isn't too keen on camping.

I've backpacked with the kids in the lakes, but my wife fancies a little more luxury; by that I mean

Nice clean site
Not too crowded with adequate space between pitches
Not noisy
Good toilet block
Bookable *

* We have to get my father into respite, so don't want to waste a chance of a few days away

Any recommendation for a site such as this in the Lake District area.

I've stayed at the National Trust site in Langdale, but it doesn't really match all the requirements shown.

Many thanks !

The C&CC site at Eskdale ticks all those boxes. 5 min walk to two nearby pubs serving good food as well.

Park Foot at Pooley Bridge was always one of our favourites.

Right next to Ullwater Lake.

Having been to both Eskdale and Parkfoot i would say that Eskdale would meet your requirements more.  Beautiful site.

I did enjoy my stay at Parkfoot but it can get very busy and noisy (from the club) depending on which field you're on and tents arent always very well spaced out.
