This campsite was a suggestion by Andy Price.
I've not actually stayed there but I've visited the campsite on a couple of occasions when assessing DofE group staying there in 2006 and 2007.
Studying the map will show that Bassenthwaite is situated right at the north end of the Lake District, and therefore limited for many walks in the immediate visicinty. Many other options are available within half-an-hour's drive however. There is also a limited bus service passing the campsite.
See my comments on 5th November (Page 2) for more information.
Now that the distractions of Christmas/New Year are out of the way, others interested in going to The Lakes this Easter may care to express their views about Bassenthwaite or another suitable campsite.
