There is a little site at the foot of whinlatter.brilliant with pods too
Braithwaite is OK. Pretty good for pubbing.
The only lake in the Lake District it be call a lake
As an interesting (to some) piece of trivia: Bassenthwaite Lake is the only lake in the Lake District.
Edit: beaten to it by Ro5ey!
Apparently, Bassenthwaite is the only lake called a lake in the Lake District.
The answer is Lane Foot Farm (Gareth is the the farmer and owner). Don't go to the large and soulless site in the village.
Ooh wait, I know something about Bassenthwaite. Oh...

Anywhere good nearby to wildcamp in a campervan?
The dead end road that heads to the footbridge into Portinacale seems popular with cheeky campers.
If you want something basic, very cheap and quiet the site at Low Lorton is ideal.
Decent pub in the village too
The site in Lorton IS the pub - The Wheatsheaf. There's a bigger site across the river too.
Herdwick Croft caravan sites takes tents and is at the bridge at the bottom end of Bass.
I meant the site 400 yards from the pub over the river
Very quiet, facilities are basic but a nice place to relax
whats the site called?
It's called Whinfell Hall
Look on UKcampsite.co.uk
Bugger, no doggies allowed :-/

Herdwick Croft is 10 min amble from the distillery.
