If you are going away somewhere and don't mind meeting up with other Bongo owners or if you've been somewhere & want to tell us about it & stick up your photos, put the details here.

Got relatives up there so a big double bed
But the site at braithwaite is supposed to be good
Walking distance to a few pubs not to big/ bizy just up road from Keswick
The village does a good beer festival in summer
There is plenty of places were you could wild camp on the quiet tho
I don't like bank holiday weekends up there tho it's full of tourists
