Hi,

I have a large 6 berth family tent (Some sites refer to them as Jumbo) and we always use camping sites that can supply us with electrics.

Does anyone know of or recommend a camping site that will accommodate this in the vicinity of Keswick, Cumbria?

I have been looking and I have not found that many. I have found the Caravan & camping site next to Derwent water at Keswick, but I know that site has issues with flooding and water logged pitches, so I am reluctant to use that one, even though it is otherwise ideal.

Please help!

Regards

Phil

Thanks Helen!

Had a look and majority of them do not supply electrics for tents, other than Burns farm and the C&C site at Crow park (The one that sometimes floods!). So Burns farm is a possibility, Ive stayed there before in a caravan and its a decent basic site. My only concern is it does get battered when windy! But at this rate, I dont have many options.

We have found a spot called Gill head farm at Troutbeck, just outside of Keswick up the A66. It takes big tents with electrics, has good facilities and is cheaper than everywhere else! Great!
