anyone recommend good campervan sites in uk?
I am hiring a campervan for my partners 30th birthday. I am wanting to try and plan a bit of a route beforehand. Wondering if anyone can recommend any good sites? As its a birthday treat was hoping to try and find some good places to go beforehand, would really appreciate any advice.Many thanks!
apologies for being a bit vague...!
...time of year will be end of April, starting from Yorkshire, but we have it for a week so thinking we could go up to Scotland or down to Wales perhaps. I don't have a clue where to start really in terms of planning a route. Or maybe another option is to not bother with a plan and just see where we end up..
Personally, I would head to the Lake District...Easy drive from Yorkshire, and 00s of open camp sites in beautiful areas. Drive round the lakes for a week, starting at Windermere and Ambleside (plenty of sites)then head up the Kirkstone Pass and over the pass down to Patterdale (plenty of sites). OR head to Hawkshead via the little car ferry. Head towards Grassmere and buy fresh Ginger bread.(been made on the same site since Victorian era) Keswick and Buttermere also for lovely views etc and again loads of sites.
Just to put the icing on the cake, What is your Partner interested in? Hobbies or interests?
please be aware that from recent experience a lot off "right next to the loch"s edge" carparks /picnic areas around Scottish waterways have BANNED all overnight stays no matter what mode of accom. you are in,i.e. car van tent,and surprisingly, the police DO enforce this law rigourously! due , as i found last year , the usual cretins from the city turning up with booze and "other" , and trashing the place (like, that"s fun?) and i was born in Glasgow!(head hangs in shame !!!) wish this comp. had a bleedin"!Spell corrector !

You really haven't given us anything to go on here...We don't even know where you are starting from or going to? What time of year?
