| I did quite a bit of travelling in Max this summer. We did the Lakes, Worcestershire, Weymouth and Bude.
In Keswick I stayed at Castlerigg Hall which is just up the hill from Keswick town and overlooks Derwentwater. The site is fabulous - very clean, nice new shower block, spread out over a good amount of space and the best bit was the on-site Bistro which served great pub-style food. Definitely going back in the future.
In Weymouth I went back to West Fleet Farm for a 4 day break. I had stayed there for a few nights when I rented a Brazilian Bay before purchasing. It's a lovely farm based site just to the west of Weymouth. Caters very well for families, has a great new shower block and during peak months sells bar type food in the barn. There's some lovely countryside to cruise along too to the west of the place. Will go back as it's not far from home for a short break.
In Bude I was wanting to be near Widemouth Bay to do some surfing so I stopped for 3 nights at Widemouth Fields which is only a year old. Huge site - essentially a field turned into a campsite - with brilliant pitches, 2 chalet style shower blocks, a comprehensively stocked shop and a cafe that serves cooked breakfasts. Just 1 mile from the beach - it was perfect for my short break. People I spoke to there had been there for their summer holiday and rated it highly. Looking forward to returning in the future. | |

| Hey Nick
Yes plenty of 240v hook ups and a superb location. I'll be going back someday soon.
Think the link is castlerigg.co.uk ________________________________________________________________________________ Max SportsKombi - The Bay Racer @brazilianvwbay | |

| Castlerigg also used to take CCI card which gave a discount out of holidays season - though I haven't been for about a decade | |
