Dammit - I never like booking far ahead so it's my own fault really

Yep for vans it’s £25.5 no EHU for 2. Still £6 pp extra though. So for a family of 4……
Still cheaper than the club sites.

That’s pretty cheap for EHU nowadays.

Theres usually a code on in summer months at many sites (mayeb not Lakes) offering 40% off. GRASSUK40 this year I think it is. Makes stays on Grass, no EHU, quite reasonable we have found.

The odd thing is it's no use in April, I think the validity of the code is for May-August.

But they don't end up free when you wine and dine her indoors..
Cheaper to find a CAMC site.

LOL, I see you're point, but to be fair doesn't matter where we stay I usually spend a small fortune especially if the place has independent shops / pubs / restaurants.

Does it have to be Keswick? Would Kendal be any good? I've not stayed here but my owners group were here last week.

Spital Caravans | Caravan site in Kendal

Spital Caravans offers an ideal spot for caravans, campervans and motorhomes alike. Conveniently located for Kendal and the Lake District.

When I've done kendal, which I do like the cricket club is my go to place

You could taxi it down not expensive then Keswick is accessible.

Yeah, we did this when we were in cambridge a couple of weeks ago so yes it's an option, but my only issue is that if i visit too many pubs I still have to disassemble the scooter get it in and out of the boot etc etc so ends up feeling a little limited. Dont get me wrong, it's not that big an inconvenience but enough sometimes to make us look at other options.

Kendal Cricket Club is £10 pn. Hard standing, no facilities, can use clubhouse. Very close to town. The high wall stops most of the road noise but some of the members can be quite happy after a few bevies.

Yep stayed on there a couple of times, I do like Kendal, not as much as Keswick admittedly but I do like it. And yeah, that members bar is a bit ummmmm interesting.

there is and many other "discounts". Problem is thy have to apply to the site you want to go to and when you want to go away. Then you can try to get a booking, if they are not all taken by others who are in a better position to use the codes.

I don't recall being able to use any of them when I have wanted to go away.

 

[Kannon Fodda]

Those discounts often apply only to bookings 14 days or more in advance and inevitably the sites with a little less popularity than the Lakes.

That would be a real money spinner.
