Campsites in the Lake District

Whether you're heading to bustling Keswick or seeking the peace of the fells at Langdale, Patterdale or Wasdale, our selection of campsites in the Lake District will help you find the perfect place to stay. A boat trip on Lake Windermere (England's largest) to explore its 18 islands is a must for first-time visitors, and there's plenty to explore around Ullswater, Derwentwater, Coniston Water and Bassenthwaite too.
