Hi,

We stayed at a self-catering place in Bowness (next to Windermere) last October and was great. Some of the apartments take dogs too. Can book short breaks as well as full weeks.

Have you ever been 'glamping'? Check these out, we've just been to Peak District in one and I don't think i'll ever use a tent again

Superbiatch,

Which site did you go to? Is glamping good as have been thinking of trying it this summer but thought of camping (with tent) isn't my idea of fun, plus doubt would have space in car to take everything.
Thanks

Stayed in static caravan in Bowness on Windermere a few years ago - lovely site and very central - called Fallbarrow ...

We went to Rivendale Camping in Alsop just outside of Buxton, and it rerally was good fun
