Where To Go Camping In August?


Recommended Posts

It's getting around to that time of year again so looking for some advice on where to go camping for a week.

Last year we did Sennen in Cornwall, year before that, we did Hawes in Yorkshire for 3 days and 3 at Glen Coe.

 

It's just the missus, the dog and I so we're looking for somewhere with a load of walks and a decent pub nearby would be handy too!

Anyone got any ideas?

I'm going to the Highlands in August, beautiful countryside and great hospitality. The kids want to go up Ben Nevis and see Loch Ness, so should be a good trip.

Nope never been to the lake district, the missus did mention about going up there one day.

Any parts in particular that you would recommend?

We've done most of Cornwall so fancy somewhere different.

I can recomend the 'quiet site' in the Lakes.

Got a great dog friendly pub on site, full of hunting stuff.

Apparently nothing has changed in there for 30 odd years!

We were the first in and last out every night, lol..

Bloke behind the bar is a font of knowlage for the area.

Decent base, easily see all of the Lake districk from there.

Well worth a visit if you've not been before, ?

Never tried central Scotland. I'll keep that in mind for next year. What's the midges like there? When we were at Fort William they were terrible.

 

David, that's only about 35 miles from me. We regularly head to that part of the coast around Weymouth. It's great for walking and loads for the nipper to do too.
