Hi,

I'm after a decent campsite in the North Yorkshire area or perhaps the Lakes. It needs to allow dogs and also have a pub (preferably with good grub!) within walking distance. Any suggestions please? I have tried these search websites but when you tick the "PH" box it generally means a pub on site which I'm not really bothered about it being on site as long as it's not too far away.

Plus I would rather have a site recommended by someone who knows what they are talking about!!

Also I am thinking of joining the C and C Club - can anyone say whether this is worth it or not?

Many thanks

Bainbridge Ings in Hawes is a lovely site and a 10 min walk into the town with lots of pubs, cafes, restaurants, a great fish n chip shop, The Wensleydale creamery (with cafe & cheese shop)... You can also walk to Hardraw Force (England`s largest single drop waterfall) in the grounds of the historic Green Dragon inn. Overall, nice site and fab location!

Never stayed myself but I think there are also a couple of sites in Swaledale (Muker has some nice traditional pubs and I think there are a few sites within walking distance on the Muker-Reeth road - Usher Gap is one of them). Area is fairly quiet/ remote though, depends what you want).

Lakes

Langdale NT site is amazing. Awesome views, very quiet, remote and 3 great pubs 5/10 min walk, others slightly further afield in local villages but walkable.

Eskdale C & CC  - lovely site, great local pubs are a short walk. Expensive if you are not a C &CC member as you pay an extra £7.20/ night to stay as a non member. Think this applies to all/most C&CC sites so if you join you only need to stay 6 nights to start saving on you £41 joining fee. They are well maintained sites with good facilities if that is important to you.
